Part 7/11:
A wide array of topics cover contentious issues like vaccines, health, and human behavior. The host discusses the microbiome disruption caused by glyphosate (commonly found in pesticides like Roundup), highlighting the uncertainties and conflicting scientific opinions about its safety.
Similarly, debates about diet—such as the carnivore diet endorsed by Jordan Peterson—are explored. The host notes that while some find health benefits in high-meat diets, concerns about sourcing, sustainability, and nutritional completeness remain.
The dialogue delves into the ethics of animal consumption, addressing meat-eating, factory farming, and synthetic alternatives like lab-grown meat. The moral and environmental implications of these choices are contrasted with practical considerations.
