Potential risks of Bluetooth earbuds ?

Hi Andrew ! I’d love to know your read of the literature on potential risks of heavy use of wireless earbuds. You mentioned recently that you use wired headphones which led me to suspect that you have some reason to avoid wireless earbuds. (I wear Bluetooth earbuds up to 10 hours per day. I find it helps me to focus on tasks.) P.S. Thank you for your work to share science with the public. I’ve been listening since episode #1, and t what I’ve learned has empowered me to leverage myself out of chronic sleep and mood disorders. Life changing !

Cognitive Load Limits

I work as an attorney and a lot of people struggle with burnout/hitting their hours. Assuming everyone is taking care of themselves (big assumption), is there any "cognitive load" reasons as to why someone can work 2400 billable hours and other people only can work 1800 billable hours before burning out, or is it a mixture of training, enthusiasm for the work, rewards, intensity, etc.?

Caloric restriction in fertile women?

Hi - I know we hear about the benefits of caloric restriction for lifespan/telomeres etc. But I wonder how that applies to women in their fertile years. Anecdotally, I've seen many cases of young women losing their cycle while undereating or dieting. I have also seen some (contested?) data that says intermittent fasting is not the best idea for women preparing to conceive. I'd love to hear more about healthspan data in the context of women's hormonal health (though I'm sure that can get convoluted!).
