Kesha is a plant-based food entrepreneur who left a 20 year career leading software product development to create a healthier, more sustainable food system.  After a car accident left her in constant pain and struggling with an autoimmune condition,  Kesha discovered that by changing her diet she could heal her body!  Kesha adopted a low inflammation plant-based diet and for the first time in years she was without pain and her autoimmune symptoms were gone.  As Kesha began looking for a healthy way to replace meat in her favorite dishes, she turned to mushrooms and discovered that they could satiate like meat.  The rest is history...Kesha and her husband Dan are now the founders of The Mushroom Meat Company and bringing mushroom nutrition to the masses.  

The Adams Event:   Our Earth has two magnetic poles:  North and South.  However, these poles are not stable as they shift periodically based on movements of the Earth's molten iron center -- as it sloshes around so to speak, the poles move around a bit.  However, the Adams Event was a phenomenon 42,000 years ago where the Earth's magnetic North and South Poles flipped, switching places for several hundred years before returning to their original positions.  Why is this relevant?  Because our magnetic North Pole is on the run now speeding up its movement toward Siberia from 9mi per year in the 90s to over 30mi per year now!  We discuss this with expert, Prof. Alan Cooper. 

John Roulac is a true natural foods and agriculture pioneer, having sued the DEA and winning regarding hemp seed legality, founding Nutiva superfoods, and producing Kiss the Ground on Netflix.  We talk about all of this and more.  John had just finished his appearance on RFK Jr.'s podcast and was fired up.   John is highly controversial because he is a self identified liberal who happens to question the liberal agenda for foods and pharmaceuticals (similar to RFK Jr.).  John rightly identifies that many of today's liberals are like yesterday's right wingers dictating and demanding an anti-freedom and dangerous agenda.   Despite all of this, John leaves us with a positive message:  "Don't Hate.  Even Bayer/Monsanto...don't hate them."   Note:  Ashley On represents a staunchly independent political viewpoint.
