Stacy drops in with a big announcement! She has always loved thinking deeper on popular fads and in her upcoming Is It Real podcast, Stacy will have a series of shows dedicated to one topic. Each will be a deep dive into the facts and truth behind something, as well as the misinformation.

She'll bring you along as she researches topics like, why people think they need coffee enemas or chia seed water when they wake up; how new administration policies and recommendations could help or hurt health protective regulations; if conspiracy theories have any validity or are simply the result of toxic fear-based myths; and much more on what may be true or what may be harmful and rooted in pseudoscience.

Together you'll figure out, is it real?
