| 4/22/26 | The Chiro-Factor Episode 26: Genes vs. Genome: Why Lifestyle Wins | Dr. Brad Glowaki and Dr. James Chestnut broadcast live from the Best Practices Seminar on the campus of Life University — hosted in the Guy Riekeman building — for a packed episode blending hard science, practice-building tools, and live Q&A with the next generation of chiropractors. The guys dig into why restriction and tenderness (allodynia) are the most valid indicators of a segmental problem, how neuroplasticity sensitizes nociceptive pathways, and how the adjustment paired with patient movement rebuilds healthy neurology. From there, they introduce two practical tools — the Chestnut Spinal Health Assessment and the new Table Talk for Referrals master class — before opening the mic to students from Palmer Florida, Life University, and beyond. The back half of the episode takes a deeper turn into epigenetics, stem cell expression, and the crucial difference between gene possession and gene expression — answering one of the most common questions students ask: why do some unhealthy people live long lives while some healthy people get sick young?Timestamps:0:00 - Welcome from the Best Practices Seminar at Life University0:45 - Allodynia explained: why tenderness + restriction = a valid segmental finding2:30 - Neuroplasticity, C-FOS proteins, and how nociceptive pathways become habits3:45 - The adjustment as stimulus, healing as response — why movement at home matters6:40 - The Chestnut (Chiropractic) Spinal Health Assessment: measuring severity & progress10:15 - Table Talk for Referrals — the new master class at LevelUpMentoring.rocks13:00 - Earning the right to ask for referrals (and why it's not a flywheel pitch)17:40 - Student Q&A #1 — Petra (Palmer Florida): Science, philosophy, and art in chiropractic21:30 - Defining the adjustment: HVLA, manipulation vs. adjustment, and the Niazi/Haavik study27:00 - Student Q&A #2 — Redmond (Life University, from Canada): navigating a mechanistic, anti-adjustment environment as a new grad29:30 - Vitalism vs. evidence: winning the argument by out-evidencing the "evidence-based" crowd32:30 - Student Q&A #3 — Michael (Palmer Florida): Why do healthy-looking people get sick young?35:00 - Toxicity, deficiency, and the bioaccumulation of exposures37:50 - Genome vs. genes: what determines lifespan vs. what determines expression43:20 - The stem cell analogy — the clearest way to explain epigenetics to patients47:00 - Twin studies, adopted-child studies, and why genes have near-zero predictive value49:00 - The 2% of true genetic illness vs. the 98% lifestyle-driven chronic disease52:00 - Wrap-up: honoring Dr. Guy Riekeman's legacy and closing thoughts | — | ||||||

| 3/5/26 | The Chiro-Factor Episode 24: The JAMA Study That Could End Chiropractic | In one of the most important episodes of The Chiro-Factor to date, Dr. Brad Glowaki and Dr. James Chestnut sound the alarm on a newly published JAMA study that, if taken at face value, could render the chiropractic profession obsolete. Chestnut breaks down in meticulous detail why the study's methodology is not just flawed, but deliberately designed to misrepresent usual chiropractic care. This is not a philosophical debate. This is a scientific methodology issue with existential stakes for the profession.This episode also carries a heavy heart. We lost one of chiropractic's true giants, Dr. Guy Riekeman, the same week this study dropped. We close the episode with personal stories and a heartfelt tribute to a man who shaped the profession in ways that cannot be overstated.

| 2/17/26 | The Chiro-Factor Episode 23: The Evidence that Changes Everything | Recorded live on location in London, UK, Dr. Brad Glowaki and Dr. James Chestnut deliver a special field episode straight off the heels of their latest Best Practice Seminar. With chiropractors from 13 countries in the room, the energy was electric — and this episode captures exactly why.Dr. Chestnut opens with a deep dive into the landmark Manga Report, the most thorough literature review of low back pain interventions ever conducted, and explains why its conclusions are just as relevant today as they were in 1993. From there, the conversation moves into dose-response research, the D&R brain metabolite study, and the Haas study — all pointing to the same conclusion: more chiropractic care produces better outcomes, and there is still no rival intervention with comparable evidence.The guys also pull back the curtain on what actually happens in the seminar room — the fear, the misinformation, the doubt that chiropractors carry from school — and how two days of evidence can completely transform a practitioner's confidence and clinical identity. Plus, a candid conversation about the state of chiropractic across Europe, the GCC guideline changes, the UCA's momentum, and a strong recommendation for Scotland College of Chiropractic.Whether you're a seasoned DC or a student just starting out, this episode is a reminder of who you are, what the evidence says, and why chiropractic is the only remaining guideline-concordant intervention for low back pain.🎯 Grab your seats to the Best Practices Seminar here: https://www.levelupmentoring.rocks/bestpracticesEpisode Timestamps:0:00 - Welcome & The Manga Report: Chiropractic vs. Medicine, Head-to-Head2:18 - London Best Practice Seminar Recap & Why They Travel the World4:03 - Dose-Response Research: The D&R Brain Study & The Haas Study Explained6:36 - Philosophy Meets Evidence: Building a 24–36 Visit Care Plan with Confidence9:15 - Inside the Seminar Room: Chiropractors Who've Never Seen the Peer-Reviewed Literature10:43 - Cervical Adjustment Safety, Stroke Myths, and Passing Fear to Students13:07 - Decisions Have Consequences: What Happens When Patients Don't Get Adjusted15:02 - SMT Is the Last One Standing: The Only Guideline-Concordant Intervention Left17:50 - Rebuilding Chiropractors' Confidence and Professional Identity18:12 - Show & Tell vs. Tell & Tell: Patient Communication, Re-Exams & the GCC Guidelines21:09 - Erasing Scientific Doubt: Why Evidence, Not Philosophy, Is the Key22:19 - Virtual Coaching, Table Talk Masterclass & the Level Up Academy23:17 - The State of Chiropractic in Europe: UCA, Scotland College & the Youth Movement24:32 - Wrap-Up, Upcoming Events (Atlanta, Amsterdam, London) & A Call for One More World Tour | — | ||||||
