When major celebrities and public figures like Miley Cyrus publicly announce they are quitting the vegan lifestyle, it makes one wonder, were they ever truly a vegan or was it just for dietary purposes? Or worse yet, to jump on the bandwagon with the rising popularity of plant-based foods and beverages being marketed all over the world. Veganism has grown into a multi-billion dollar industry in the last decade or so, and naturally there are people who want to cash in on what's trending and profitable. So what is the difference between actually being able to call yourself a vegan and the plant-based diet fad? And why is it important to understand the difference?

They say there are two subjects never to bring up at a dinner party, and wouldn't you know, we're discussing one of those topics in this episode. Both Maddie and I were born into Christian families, but somewhere along the way we both began to question what it really means to be a Christian, and is this something we truly believe in. We both open up about our journeys with religion and Maddie tells all about her religious upbringing.

YouTuber Celia Cavalli shares with us the horrific story of her plastic surgery journey and how she discovered her breast implants were making her ill through a supportive online community. For some, going under the knife may seem like no big deal, but to many the idea of going plastic is simply frowned upon. Why is this such a controversial matter? Can it really be as bad as people think it is? We'll get the scoop from Celia!

Our OG guest "B" from "What I Learned From Dating Your Dad" sits down to chat with Maddie and Melle about her brand new blog and its origins. Is dating "a dad" aka an older man really so bad? What psychological effects could this have on a young woman? Younger women dating older men has been a taboo in American society for as long as I can remember, and it's always a juicy topic worth exploring. 

Do you have a story about dating an older man you want to share with us? Was it a positive or a negative experience? Leave us a voice message here.

In the premiere episode of the Not 2 Popular Podcast, Maddie and Melle have a one-on-one conversation about data selling after Melle watched the Social Dilemma and her curiosity got the best of her. 

Maddie Campbell is a twenty something web developer with a smart mind, and an even smarter mouth. Melle Hartley is a thirty something year old former model who keeps it real, even if her words aren’t so pretty.

On the Not 2 Popular Podcast, we talk about everything controversial from minor things like tastes in food to major things like politics. Let’s get real and honest about touchy subjects, keeping an open mind and an open heart instead of immediately canceling someone forever.

We hope this platform is a learning tool for people to become more empathetic and understanding of our different opinions and to embrace them instead of creating hatred.
