Remembering I'm an Animal
Billy Baker and Jody Simoes
38 episodes
5 days ago
An adventure in wild ideas and wild behaviors, all to answer the question: Can acting like a Homo sapiens make you feel more human? We identify the fundamental evolved abilities programmed into our DNA, the things we were born to do, and then attempt to express them. Or something like that. It's usually a bit of a mess, but the truth is that our restoration project is working. Come join us. Hosted by a mostly mediocre writer named Billy Baker, and a definitely mediocre scientist named Dr. Jody Simoes, who allegedly has a Ph.D in something to do with fisheries and wildlife.

The rules for feeding a Homo sapiens

You ever try to feed a dog something they're not "supposed" to eat? People lose their shit. Yet we feed the same crap to ourselves and our children without a second thought. 

At the same time, the question of what we should be eating is so clouded with pseudoscience and fad diets that it's impossible to know who is right. Or if there is such a thing as the "right" diet for humans. 

Here on the little show, we lean toward ancestral, species-appropriate behaviors, but in a modern world. Its a blend, and nowhere is that blend tougher to maintain than with what we eat. 

So today, the boys pick through Michael Pollan's painfully practical "food rules," which are simple, time-tested (which we love) ideas about how to eat, and how to avoid stressing too much about what you eat.

Also on the show, Jody details the emotions of his roller-coaster ride since finding out he's going to walk the Greasy Pole at the St. Peter's Fiesta; the launch of the "shirtless solstice" movement; and Billy explains what it's like to have an attractive woman give you a colonic.
