Gweek 047: Drop Dead Healthy - Social Media Buzz

Gweek is Boing Boing?s podcast about comic books, science fiction and fantasy, video games, board games, tools, gadgets, apps, and other neat stuff.
In this episode, I interviewed author A.J. Jacobs. In his 2005 book, The Know-It-All: One Man?s Humble Quest to Become the Smartest Person in the World, A.J. committed himself to read the entire Encyclopedia Britannica. In 2007 he wrote The Year of Living Biblically: One Man?s Humble Quest to Follow the Bible as Literally as Possible, he lived by the rules of the Bible, and ended up wearing a white robe and a very full beard.
In his new book, Drop Dead Healthy: One Man?s Humble Quest for Bodily Perfection, A.J. followed a bunch of extreme self-improvement techniques, including a raw food diet, the paleo diet, libido boosting techniques, and unusual exercise regimens.
