    Vegetarian Festival Drama, Shawn Baker's Bad Advice & MORE! S03E21
    Apr 25 2026
    In this episode we explore the controversy surrounding Shambala Festival, a long-standing 100% vegetarian event that recently sparked debate by proposing something unexpected: adding “sustainably sourced venison” to its menu. In the second half, we react to Shawn Baker’s advice to his younger self: “Never get fat and never stop training.” We also look at Paul Saladino’s shift from strict carnivore to including fruit and carbohydrates, and what that says about evolving ideas in nutrition, metabolic health, and scientific humility.

    In this episode, we tackle the extremes of diet culture, the quest for longevity, and why hardcore food labels might be a thing of the past. Topics covered in this episode: The Longevity Debate (Buettner vs. Asprey): We break down the fascinating clash between two men who claim to have the answers to living to 100. Is the secret in beans, whole foods, and community, or is it in meat, supplements, and biohacking? The Vegan Exodus: Why are major influencers walking away from the “vegan” label to rebrand as “plant-based”? We look at the strategy, the community reactions, and the debate around “imperfect vegans.” Dropping the Carnivore Diet: Michaela Peterson shares two major updates—she is no longer strictly carnivore, and she is helping launch a massive, crowdfunded randomized clinical study on the diet.
