- EP1 - The Most Important Meal... Or the Most Profitable Lie?We all grew up hearing that "breakfast is the most important meal of the day." But was this timeless piece of nutritional wisdom handed down by doctors and scientists, or was it cooked up in a boardroom to sell us more cereal and bacon? This episode uncovers the surprising marketing campaigns and corporate interests that turned a simple meal into a cultural mandate.If you enjoy the show and want to support it, you can buy me a coffee:https://paypal.me/podcast824 min
About Half-Truths
From the publisher's feed
Remember that neat, tidy version of history and science you learned in school? The one with brave explorers discovering continents, brilliant inventors having a single "eureka!" moment, and a food pyramid that was definitely going to make you healthy?
It turns out, a lot of it was wrong.
Welcome to Half-Truths, the show dedicated to unlearning the myths, half-truths, and outright fabrications that have become common knowledge.
In each episode, we take one "fact" you thought you knew and trace it back to its source. We'll uncover the surprising context, the political spin, and the often more fascinating truth that got left out of the textbook. This isn't just about trivia; it's about understanding how the stories we're told shape our world.
Get ready for the "aha!" moments that will make you see the past—and the present—in a whole new light.
