We’ve been sold a lie about food—what it is, how it should taste, and what it means to nourish a human body. In this raw, eye-opening episode, I sit down with Dr. Bill Schindler, archaeologist, chef, and author of Eat Like a Human, to break down what we’ve lost in the modern food system—and how to get it back.

We cover everything from the truth about raw milk and real sourdough bread to ancient food wisdom, fermentation, seed oils, and why spinach might not be the superfood you think it is. Bill explains how real nourishment goes beyond nutrients—it’s about connection, culture, and shortening the food chain between you and what you eat.

If you’ve ever questioned what’s on your plate or wanted to feed your family better but felt overwhelmed, this conversation will give you clarity, confidence, and a path forward.
