The Joe Rogan Experience - Episode 1784
Diana Rodgers is a registered dietitian, nutritionist, and host of the "Sustainable Dish" podcast. Robb Wolf is a former research biochemist, author, and co-host of "The Healthy Rebellion" radio podcast, alongside his wife Nicki Violetti. They are the co-authors of "Sacred Cow: The Case for (Better) Meat," a companion book to the documentary of the same name.
This is certainly one of those episodes that hooks you immediately and is engaging throughout. Diana and Robb talk from experience and expertise on the meat-based diet.
Did you know 1 in 3 people in the USA are either diabetic or pre-diabetic? 70% of our population is overweight or obese. Are hippies destroying our bodies and the environment? Is it because climate change "wokeness" is ruining literally EVERYTHING!?
The discussion covers diet, agriculture and environmental factors. In doing so, Diana and Robb lay out an extremely compelling ethical case for meat production and meat based diets.
You'll never want to eat an Impossible Burger after listening to this.
Also - fuck Bill Gates.
