Licensed electrician Andrew McAfee explains how home wiring, magnetic fields, and ground current can wreck sleep, mood, and kids’ health — and why grounding products can make it worse.
Measure first. Fix the wiring. Then worry about supplements.
Andrew went from principal French horn with the North Carolina Symphony to full-time home EMF investigator after he and his wife got sick in a brand-new house. In this conversation we cover bed maps, electrosentience, utility ground current, isolation transformers, why Romex radiates, and the first tests you can run tonight without buying a gadget.
If you’ve been chasing mitochondria, light, and minerals and still feel wired-and-tired at home, this is the missing layer.

WHAT WE COVER • Why a “new home” can still be electrically dirty • Bed maps and why the sleeping environment matters more than most supplements • Kids as the canary — they don’t have language for the load • Why outlet grounding sheets and earthing mats can put current on your body • Utility ground current moving through soil and plumbing • Isolation transformers and property-level mitigation • Quick wins: Wi-Fi off, phones out, breaker test at night • Measure electric fields, magnetic fields, and RF before you buy anything • Logan’s signals-and-receivers frame vs Andrew’s field work

FIRST STEPS (from the episode) • Flip the main breaker for one night as a test • Kill Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and cordless phones at bedtime • Measure before you buy filters, sheets, or “EMF stickers” • Do not plug a grounding sheet into an untested outlet • Change one variable at a time
