In this episode of American Glutton, I sit down with Dr. Drew Pinsky and Adam Carolla for a no-holds-barred conversation on health, culture, discipline, and resilience. We dive into the politics of obesity, the cultural shift around smoking, and why hard work still trumps talent. From the dangers of over-reliance on medication to the impact of safe spaces on mental health, Drew and Adam bring raw insights, provocative takes, and personal stories. If you’re ready to challenge conventional thinking about health, masculinity, and personal responsibility, this episode is a must-listen.
