In a sea of polished health podcasts promising instant transformation, Irreverent Health stands apart by asking bold questions, embracing curiosity, and injecting humor into serious topics.
Hosted by Dr. Tom Ingegno, DACM, a 25-year integrative medicine practitioner and owner of Charm City Integrative Health, and Matt Hampton, owner of Envoy and longtime digital strategist and health fanatic, Irreverent Health brings together unconventional voices and provocative ideas to challenge the mainstream wellness narrative.
The hosts grew weary of the echo chamber of recycled talking points, self-appointed “gurus,” and fear-based clickbait in health journalism. They sought honest conversations with thinkers who question everything, including their own biases.
Each episode mixes humor, scientific insight, and curiosity to create a space where skeptics and believers can coexist. From dialogues with neuroscientists like Dr. Jeff Tarrant to innovators like Muse cofounder Ariel Garten, the podcast explores the intersection of consciousness, resilience, and evidence-based health.
Since its launch, Irreverent Health has produced nearly 200 episodes and earned an Honorable Mention in The Baltimore Sun’s “Best Podcast” list for 2024. Its bold but informed tone has drawn an international following and a guest roster that includes authors, researchers, and innovators redefining how we think about wellness.
More than a show, Irreverent Health is a movement that values dialogue over dogma and conversation over controversy. It’s where science meets storytelling, and listeners leave a little sharper, lighter, and more empowered to own their wellbeing.
The hosts describe their approach as “edutainment” education with an edge. Their aim is not to dictate what listeners should believe, but to inspire them to think, inquire, and possibly shift their perspective. As the audience grows, so does the community of guests aligned with their mission: questioning dogma, celebrating curiosity, and humanizing health.
Listeners span practitioners, entrepreneurs, and lifelong learners tired of quick fixes who want deeper insight.
Whether the subject is acupuncture, psychedelics, longevity, or the nature of belief, Irreverent Health delivers thoughtful dialogue without taking itself too seriously.
At its core, Irreverent Health is about reclaiming the wellness conversation, with humor, humility, and honesty. Health is not sacred; it’s human. And being irreverent just means bringing humanity back into the discussion.
