#139: NPA Fly-In Day 2024 - Jim Emme, Rick Collins, Mike DiMaggio, Mark LeDoux, Kyle Turk, & Dan Fabricant


Listen Later

The crew is back in Washington DC for the 2024 NPA Fly-In Day, held on May 22, 2024! This podcast was filmed the night before, featuring a star-studded cast that includes:

  • Jim Emme, CEO of NOW Foods
  • Kyle Turk, Natural Products Association
  • Rick Collins, the one and only
  • Mike DiMaggio, Chief Legal Officer at NutraBolt
  • Mark LeDoux, founder and CEO of NAI (CarnoSyn)
  • Dan Fabricant, Natural Products Association
  • And it features Joey Savage as an added interviewer.

    Unfortunately, our opening with Dan Fabricant and a bit of the beginning of Jim Emme’s interview was lost due to a corrupted memory card. Regardless, this is a knockout series of discussions ranging from the ongoing political issues in DC and at the states level to the incredible background and history of Rick, Mike, and Mark’s respective careers.

    Get ready for a fantastic 2-hour conversation, and be sure to see the NPA’s Take Action page and join the organization at NPANational.org.
