Today’s episode is a little different - because today’s guest is... me. Well, not exactly me, but my digital doppelgänger: AI Charlie. 

That’s right, I’ve created an AI version of myself, trained on everything I’ve ever said on this podcast and beyond, and today, I’m putting him in the hot seat. Why? Because I wanted to test something: Can an AI trained on my conversations, thoughts, and beliefs deliver insight, inspiration, and maybe even a little wisdom about the world of endurance sports, just like Claire & I aim to do with our guests each week? 

Think of this as an experiment in self-reflection, curiosity, and the ever-evolving relationship between humans, performance, and technology. We dive into some of the core themes of The Business of Endurance - mental resilience, balance, performance, and purpose - but through the lens of someone - or something - that knows me perhaps a little too well. 

So buckle up for a conversation with... my AI-Clone. And maybe, just maybe, we’ll uncover something new about what it means to endure.
