The Meat Mafia Podcast

Today is day 1 on the Noble reset challenge, and I am feeling excited and under caffeinated.

This 30 Day challenge is geared to build some momentum heading into the end of the year and to rewrite our relationships with important areas of our life. We'll be getting off social media, eating and living clean, reading 30 minutes per day, and working out each day.

If you're interested in joining us for the challenge, you can join us in the WhatsApp group here.

This conversation originally aired on How To Carnivore with host Simon. We’re republishing it on the Meat Mafia feed so our audience can catch the full discussion.

In this episode, Simon sits down with Meat Mafia founders Brett Ender and Harry Gray to unpack how two college teammates went from weekend binges and broken guts to building one of the most honest voices in the animal-based movement. Brett shares his fight with ulcerative colitis and how a strict animal-based approach helped him get off expensive meds and reclaim his life. Harry walks through childhood antibiotics, acne, Accutane, and the diet experiments that led him back to performance and clarity.

We dig into:

• the decentralization of nutrition info and the threads that changed their lives
• the arc of the Meat Mafia podcast and why conversations matter more than credentials
• Noble: why beef isolate, collagen, and colostrum are a bridge for people who can’t always eat perfect meat
• training, events, and how seasons of life change your approach to diet
• practical advice for anyone curious about carnivore, low-carb, or simply eating real food

Ali Miller is a registered dietitian, integrative health practitioner, author of The Anti-Anxiety Diet and Naturally Nourished Kids, and a leading voice in food-as-medicine. She specializes in functional nutrition, detoxification, gut health, and metabolic healing. Ali blends rigorous scientific research with spiritual and ancestral wisdom, empowering people to understand how modern toxins—from EMFs and plastics to glyphosate—impact the body, and how to reclaim resilience through nutrition, lifestyle, and faith.

In this episode, we welcome back Ali Miller for part two of our conversation, diving deep into the hidden toxins shaping modern health: EMFs, microplastics, and glyphosate.

Ali explains the real mechanisms of how these environmental stressors affect the human body—from hijacking our nervous system to disrupting hormones and gut health. But rather than fearmongering, she provides empowering, actionable steps:

• How grounding, community, and “God frequency” restore resilience against EMFs.
• The surprising role of probiotics, polyphenols, and sweat in detoxing microplastics.
• Why glycine-rich foods, spirulina, and chlorella are powerful defenses against glyphosate.

This is a conversation that connects food as medicine, environmental health, and spiritual grounding, giving you the tools to protect yourself and your family while living fully in today’s world.

Brett & Harry appear on the The EMPWR Podcast hosted by Samantha Christine

We get into: the path from athletics and burnout to entrepreneurship and metabolic health, Brett’s experience navigating an autoimmune disease and getting off all medications by taking his health into his own hands, why the meat industry has been so misunderstood (and what most people get wrong), hot takes on the carnivore diet, vegan diet, seed oils, and what “clean eating” really means, the food system, decentralization, and taking your health into your own hands, and building a brand (and a mission) with your best friend.

We also talk about the “good, better, best” framework when it comes to sourcing meat, and how to apply that same mindset to the way you consume and make choices with food in everyday life. If you’re passionate about clean eating, but also believe in balance, and if you're questioning what’s actually healthy, or just want to feel more grounded in your choices… this one’s for you.
