  • Family Planning In The Era Of Climate Change

    Difficult truth time: A child born today will live on a planet that’s hotter than it has ever been since human civilization developed. And us humans? We’re the ones who created this problem.

    According to one study, each child born in the United States adds thousands of tons of carbon dioxide to their parents’ lifetime carbon legacy. While some prospective parents rightly question whether it’s ethical to have children and thus contribute to our global warming woes, others wonder whether it’s fair *to the child* to bring them into a world with such an uncertain - and perhaps unstable - future.

    The decision to have a family is a profoundly emotional and personal one that’s made more complex with looming climate threats. When it comes to taking drastic measures to curb global warming, is the onus of responsibility on us individuals? Or is it on polluting, business-as-usual corporations and other systemic forces?

    It's Difficult Decisions Week on the podcast and on today's show my guests and I tackle the most difficult one of all: family planning in the era of climate change.


    Here's a preview: 

    [9:00] Breaking down the carbon emissions numbers and adding in legacy

    [12:00] Is it ethical to bring a child into a world that’s rapidly warming?

    [14:00] Thoughts on intentionally having children and raising them to be stewards of the planet

    [20:00] The paradox of privilege: if we’re privileged enough to not feel the effects of climate change, can/should we go on living as usual?

    [24:00] It all comes down to hope. How hopeful are you?

  • A Better Loaf

    Sourdough bread is alchemy personified, as just 3 ingredients — flour, salt, and water — transform themselves into a delicious food item that also happens to be insanely healthy. Yet despite centuries of sourdough wisdom, 21st century bread is made with dozens of unnecessary (and perhaps unsafe) additives. And those microbiome benefits that sourdough boasts? Sadly, modern bread has none.

    Today in honor of #SourdoughSeptember: A conversation with professional bakers Ed and Natasha Tatton about the reasons why we should all be eating sourdough on the regular (and how, too, to get started on your own sourdough baking journey if the mood strikes).

    Here's a preview:

    [5:00] Sourdough isn't a skill, it's an understanding

    [9:00] Sour-faux? Loaves at the supermarket may say "sourdough" but are a-lyin'

    [15:00] Not everyone should bake sourdough, but everyone should be eating it: Breaking down the (numerous) health benefits of fermented foods

    [22:00] Sourdough starters were once passed down as wedding gifts. Here's everything you need to know about your "low-maintenance pet" 

    [29:00] Pro tips for sourdough success from professional bakers

  • The Processed Food Problem

    About 60 percent of the foods Americans eat these days are processed, and diet-related illnesses are the leading cause of mortality in the USA. If you’re like most people you may be spending your hard-earned dollars on food you’ve been told is healthy and safe but simply isn't. 

    Amidst both all the conflicting diet information and all the greenwashing it has never been more important to pay attention to what's in our food. On today's show we discuss the processed food problem by zeroing in on 3 specific additives we should be on the lookout for the next time we venture into the grocery store.


    Here's a preview:

    [4:30] Is processing the problem, or is it the additives?

    [7:30] Why 'Generally Recognized As Safe' is ridiculously unsafe

    [15:00] Red 3, Yellow 4, and everything you need to know about artificial food dyes 

    [18:00] The connection between the benzoates and hyperactivity

    [24:00] What on earth is potassium bromate? Here's the simplest way to avoid this bread additive

  • Building Experiential Wealth

    Our experiences - the big trips, the small moments of joy, and everything in between - are the real wealth of our lives. So why is it that we consistently fail to do the things we're yearning to do? And how can we live lives that are experientially rich despite the daily grind?

  • The C Word

    Since the dawn of the chemical era more than 300,000 chemicals have been invented, and many are made from oil and natural gas. While some manufactured chemicals have indeed provided benefit (Disinfectants! Antibiotics!), they have also caused great harm. Manufactured chemicals pollute every corner of the planet. They kill bees, fish, and mammals. They nearly destroyed the ozone and, yes, they give us cancer.

    Many types of cancer are on the rise in the US, and one explanation for this increase lies in our world of chemicals. On today's show environmental investigative reporter Kristina Marusic identifies the harmful environmental exposures linked to cancer; she also provides a step-by-step roadmap for reducing your cancer risk.

    Here's a preview: 

    [2:00] Breaking down exactly what's happening with cancer rates around the world and why

    [12:00] The 3 Ps: 3 categories of pollutants that have clear links to childhood cancer

  • Big Pharma

    The US pharmaceutical industry is unique in that it markets directly to consumers (hey there, Zoloft commercial!). Through such direct-to-consumer marketing we have been spoon-fed the notion that every hint of a symptom requires a drug.

    The result? Americans take more prescription medications today than at any other time in recent history. 

    On today's show we uncover the pharmaceutical industry's influence over the FDA and over consumers.

    Here's a preview:

    [2:30] Do Americans take more prescription drugs than citizens in other countries?

    [5:00] Prescription medication and the implications of its direct-to-consumer marketing

    [9:30] Big pharma, the FDA, and a great big conflict of interest

  • Single-Use Poison

    We're surrounded by plastics everywhere, all the time. And single-use plastics? They're not only creating a pollution crisis; they are contributing to the climate crisis as well.

    Microplastics in particular are a cocktail of toxicity, containing at least 10,000 different chemicals, many of which are linked to diseases including diabetes and cancer. And yet more plastic waste is being produced than ever before.
