INSIDE THE EPISODE

Imagine battling for justice against a giant corporation in court, your health and life on the line, and being awarded over $200 million.

This was the reality for Dewayne "Lee" Johnson, the brave groundskeeper who took on Monsanto and won a landmark lawsuit that shocked the world.

His story is not just about one man's fight against a powerful company; it's a tale of resilience, truth, and the pursuit of justice in the face of overwhelming adversity.

In our latest episode of the Optimize Paleo Podcast, we sit down with Dewayne "Lee" Johnson to delve into the details of his incredible journey, the legal battle that made headlines, and the profound implications it has for public health and corporate accountability.

This is a conversation you won't want to miss and here are some of my favorite moments:

  • What Monsanto told him about glyphosate's safety
  • The choices that lead to his Glyphosate exposure
  • The moment he noticed his first symptoms
  • The link between glyphosate exposure and cancer
  • The shocking reason his settlement was reduced
  • His ultimate goal for speaking out
  • Whether the levels of glyphosate in food are an issue
  • And so much more!

Dewayne doesn't really do interviews anymore - so listen in for exclusive access to his remarkable story. 

I sincerely hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did.

Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
