The behind the bastards about Jobs was fucking wild. The guy made children cry (not his own) for eating incorrectly and he would hold meetings in the bathroom so he could soak his feet in the toilets. It is a great series of episodes.

The same dude who refused cancer treatment because he was convinced his “healthy” lifestyle and alt med bullshit would cure the cancer itself

He literally thought eating tons of fruit would cure cancer. He also refused to shower and stank like shit.

I'll look for that one, he's great. Sometimes, it's just too hard to listen to, but Jobs would probably be okay.

The Jobs series is fairly tame as far as BtB goes. Definitely worth a listen.

Listen to the episode. It is fucking wild. He apparently didn’t bathe either

Because he said he didn't need to. Some wild shit about mucus and body odor and how his diet removed the need for it.

Narrator: It didn't

How do you eat incorrectly, stick it up your nose?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

If I recall it was a small girl who ordered a hamburger which conflicted with what he thought a proper diet should be. He absolutely let her have it in public and she cried.
