Haven't read the article but how do these things even come together? Like is someone from x magazine just digging into celebrities' private lives? Or did Huberman's partners all come together and start contacting magazines with the story? How do they even fact check things like this?
There's this musician I'm a fan of and his ex recently posted this statement on twitter accusing him of a lot of things - not as bad as this. A lot of people instantly believe her, some people say wait to here his side of the story, but in that case it sounded very one sided and you wonder what her goal was in even posting it. Apparently, the musician said he's not even going to respond to it. I mean...you'd think some of it must be true otherwise why would they post it but we also had instances like Herd & Depp.
I'm curious as to the statement Huberman makes as a response. I never followed the guy too closely so it's like, "oh, surprise, another famous person is (apparently) a shitty person".
In the article it talks about how all of his ex’s got together and shared texts and things and he would be with one texting two more at the same time. He would even send the same selfie to multiple girlfriends. Dude had his hand in multiple cookie jars.
Don’t wish these situations on anyone but it’s kind of like fuck around and find out
Okay, for anyone who needs it:
tl;dr: Huberman is accused of living a double life by multiple ex-girlfriends. They allege he maintained a public image of healthy living and self-control while privately deceiving and manipulating them for years, claiming they were in exclusive relationships while dating several women simultaneously.
The article also raises some concerns about Huberman's podcast, suggesting he sometimes overstates the certainty of scientific findings, discusses topics outside his expertise, and profits from questionable health supplements. However, the alleged deceptions in his personal life, which the women documented extensively after discovering each other, are the focus of the piece.
The accusations paint a picture of a man with a carefully crafted public persona that is distinctly at odds with his private behavior. In the aftermath, his accusers have formed a support group to process their experiences and help other women he may have deceived.
So the allegations are all about him being an asshole in his private life. As to his podcast, it doesn't sound like he falsified data so his professional findings and presentations are still valid, valuable information.
His public image is definitely tainted - to say the least - and now it seems, for his listeners, a big question is can you still listen to his podcast/support him after all this has surfaced?
