How exactly did red meat, saturated fat, and cholesterol become public enemies? Today’s guest spent nine years digging into these questions and more, traveling the world, eating alongside hunter-gatherer tribes, and uncovering the economics behind why special interests need you to keep believing meat is the problem. We’re here with my good buddy, Brian Sanders, a mechanical engineer, host of the Peak Human podcast, creator of the upcoming documentary series Food Lies, and founder of Sapien.org.

Today’s guest is a board-certified physician who nearly walked away from medicine when he realized the entire system was built on the wrong foundation. But instead of quitting, he did something far more dangerous: he stayed. He finished med school, crushed his residency, passed his boards… and then turned his back on the  profit-driven pharmaceutical playbook.

As AI and special interests sloppify the interwebs, we need to ask ourselves: do clicks and ratings matter more than the truth? When media is rigged, the monetary system is imploding, and tech bros are racing to turn us into the product, how do you stay truly free? If you feel like the world’s gone insane with a weaponized media system, endless distraction, and soul-sucking tech, listen up. We're exploring how to create a reality where people use technology instead of being exploited by it.
