Our favourite quotable moments:

“I don’t care what program you’re on; if you’ve got a great diet, you’ve got great exercise… if you’re not sleeping, we’re in trouble.” - Dave Liow

“So it's that idea of not just looking at the single components, but looking at how all those different components interact gives you a full picture.” - Dave Liow

“I think one of the mistakes that we think about is we often think that sleep is like a power down button on your computer; it just turns off. But that's not the case.”  - Dave Liow
