The latest episode of Busy Body Podcast featuring conversation with Journalist and co-Author of the book Food Intelligence, Julia Belluz is out now. It’s a super informative conversation and a really great book. (order here)
Busy Body is now on Patreon! If you’ve been a long time listener, please consider supporting the pod! Your support will help me be able to put more episodes out more regularly. If just twenty people joined the 2nd tier we’d have an extra episode a month covered!
The audio version of the podcast will continue here on Substack, you can also upgrade to paid and support the pod and my writing here. Truly anything helps.
If you are more of a here-for-the-pod person, on Patreon, we’re offering an ad-free video tier, a gift-in-the-mail tier and an UNFILTERED tier where members get access to bonus content conversations as well as mini segments from me on topical subjects and my (strong) opinion on them - if that tier takes off, I can open the private chat option so we can all chat with each other!
Thank you for listening! I’m hoping this move will help me better understand and get to know my listeners and better understand and get to know my Substack readers! These communities are growing and are distinct - I so appreciate you and hope you’ll join me wherever is best for you!
Now onto the show!
I’ve been following Julia Belluz’s writing for awhile and when I heard she was putting out a book co-authored with Kevin Hall PhD I literally pre-ordered it twice (accidentally but still!). Food Intelligence did not disappoint! We cover a lot in this conversation from ‘food environments’ to the unrelegated world of supplements, and of course the discourse around ‘obesity’, fat bodies and health. It’s a great conversation and I also hope to have Kevin Hall on soon so stay tuned!

Don’t forget to like, share, comment, review - I know all that jazz feels perfunctory these days but I do my best to heart all the substacks I read and like and share all the pods I listen to - the creators really see those and personally, any activity let’s me know a real human engaged with work that took me hours and hours if not weeks and weeks. It matters human to human ❤️
