A car break-in, hospital runs, property drama, and a rogue robot vacuum set the stage for a conversation that swerves from comedy to clarity. Out of the chaos, we dig into why bingeing often isn’t about hunger at all—it’s about autonomy, guilt, and the relief of choosing something no one can take away. That honesty opens the door to a different strategy: feel-first eating that reduces guilt, turns “forbidden” foods into normal choices, and slowly breaks binge routines without all-or-nothing rules.

We also challenge the “protein everything” trend. Protein Pop-Tarts, protein soda, protein cereal—when labels shout, we ask better questions. What’s the protein per 200 calories? Is the price markup worth it? We share simple swaps that deliver more value, like using an affordable protein shake as “milk” over regular cereal, or picking budget protein powders that taste fine and digest well. The goal isn’t to buy perfection; it’s to choose options you’ll actually stick with.

Pressed for time? We map out five fast meals you can make on autopilot: ramen upgraded with miso, peanut butter, and veggies; bagged salads with tuna or beans; overnight oats with coffee for a morning lift; high-fiber, high-protein lupini pasta with tomato sauce; and the unfairly maligned sandwich as a balanced everyday staple. Along the way, we dispel myths about raw foods and lectins, explain why cooked beans are your friend, and offer texture hacks—think black bean brownies, hummus, and refried blends—that make nutritious choices easier.

We close with pizza philosophy: it’s not the villain. Zoom in on ingredients, portion, and how you want to feel two hours later. That mindset—practical, flexible, and honest—beats the hype and helps you navigate weeks when everything goes sideways. If this mix of real talk and workable food ideas helps you breathe a little easier, tap follow, share with a friend who’s stuck in “protein label” land, and leave a quick review to help more people find the show.

You cut it off at that, and Isat down and it was just I was

And then Monday night, I again Ijust passed out and I slept a
good like 13 hours.
I woke up and I was like, Icould just fall asleep again.

SPEAKER_02 (01:42):
Okay.
Because that's like iffy whenyou sleep for 13 hours.
Sometimes you wake up and you'relike, dude, I'm gonna take on
the world, or like, damn, I feellike shit.
It goes one to two ways.

SPEAKER_00 (01:52):
I would have loved to have just gone back to sleep
and slept another, I don't knowhow much, but uh I had to I had
to get up and do some things.
So yeah.

Miriam, hey, wherever you're at,contact me.
I have ideas.
First off, I have my beancabinet that people are like,
you gotta call it the cab beenet.
And I'm like, all right, that'spretty good.
So we gotta get that in there aswell.
Yeah, it's pretty good, right?
Like, that's where you keep yourbeans.
Everyone should have a cab beannet, especially with the economy

(02:36):
the way it is.
Everyone's gonna need a cabbynet.
You know what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_03 (02:39):
We're also gonna need a machine that grinds up
crickets into food mass.

SPEAKER_02 (02:43):
Do would you would the crickets go with the beans
or is the beans separate?
Can we go?
Do we put them together?

SPEAKER_03 (02:47):
We could do crickets and beans.
That's I think we could docrickets and beans.

SPEAKER_02 (02:50):
I feel like crickets and beans would be like on an on
a British menu.

SPEAKER_03 (02:54):
That's you get to say that.
Yeah, unbans.

SPEAKER_02 (02:56):
Yeah, no, I'll take the um the sausage and the
crickets and beans, please.
With uh what does that go?
What's that pair with?
A Bordeaux?
All right, sure.
No, it sounds good to me.

SPEAKER_03 (03:05):
Untoasted bread.

SPEAKER_02 (03:06):
Or untoasted bread.
Would would there be beans?
Wait, are the crickets and beansgoing on the bread?
Is it like beans and crickets ontoast?

SPEAKER_01 (03:13):
Yes.
Oh, I kind of like this idea.

SPEAKER_02 (03:16):
I'm not gonna let's flush this out a little bit.
So do we just I'm seeing I'massuming it's like re-fried
breeds, re fried breans withcrickets in there, sort of just
mashed up into a pulp.

SPEAKER_00 (03:27):
Well, I was thinking like bangers and mash.
You take the mash out and youget some crickets in there.

SPEAKER_02 (03:33):
Bangers and crickets?
I kind of like crickets and mashbetter, but bangers and
crickets.
Okay.
No, bangers and crickets alsohas a I don't know.
Both are good.
Bangers and crickets.
Bangers and crickets, beans andcrickets, crickers and crickers
and mash.
Where are we at?
What do we think?
Where are we putting these?
I want to want to one, two,three.

SPEAKER_03 (03:52):
Well, I just got a message.
We have made zero sales on theInmoderation cookbook.

SPEAKER_02 (03:57):
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
People would buy this purely, atleast just to like give it to a
friend or something.
Like it's a it's a cricket basedgift.

SPEAKER_03 (04:04):

This is a perfect gag.
Literally, it's gonna make yougag when you get the gift.

SPEAKER_02 (04:09):

SPEAKER_00 (04:28):
Pre-orders.

SPEAKER_02 (04:29):
Oh, pre-orders start on Friday.
Yes, I think this is I thinkpeople I I we gotta lean into
it.
A gag gag gift of cricket-basedrecipes.
I think that would do I thinkthat would do better than
anything else we we have, whichmaybe that's not like a huge,
maybe that's not the mostamazing thing, but like I think
I think it could do pretty well.

(04:50):
People let us know.
What do you would you get a gaggag gift for your friends just
out of, you know, just a just afucking what you call the slap
of the knee and a laugh orwhatever.

SPEAKER_00 (05:00):
Perfect Secret Santa gift for Christmas coming up.

SPEAKER_02 (05:03):
Oh, Secret Santa.
I don't know if I have I everdone a secret?
So Secret Santa's the one wherelike you where where you give
some you have somebody that yougive a gift to and they don't
know who they get it from.

SPEAKER_00 (05:16):
Yeah, you everybody draws a name and you you get a
gift for that person that youdrew.

SPEAKER_02 (05:21):
Okay.
I think that's better than theother one where like everyone
fights over the same giftbecause some fucker didn't
listen to the$25 limit, and theyand they buy like a$500 speaker
or something, and theneveryone's just like, no, I want
that one, and they keep tradingfor it.
You know what I'm saying?
What's that one?

SPEAKER_03 (05:36):
You're supposed to be assigned a person.
So like you get a person thatyou buy the secret gift from.
Right.

SPEAKER_02 (05:42):
No, no, no.
Yes.
But there's another one wherewhere there's no, there's
another one where like you opena gift, right?
Somebody opens a gift and thenthey keep it.
And the next person opens agift, and then they can either
keep that gift or pick the otherperson's gift.
Yeah.
They pick that person and thenext person goes, and it goes,
keeps going like that, where youcan either keep your gift that
you picked out or trade withsomeone else.
And every it always fuckinghappens where someone doesn't

(06:04):
listen to the limit, and theyget something like, Oh, and I
got a fucking Mitsubishi.
That's like, here's the keys tothat.
It's outside, and then everyonekeeps trading for that.
And I'm like, you fucker.
Like now everyone wants thatthing.
You know what I'm saying?
It's called like a blacksomething.
I don't remember.
We'd have to look it up.
I have no idea.

SPEAKER_03 (06:20):
The first person in that lineup is always gonna get
screwed, and the last person'salways gonna get exactly what
they want.

SPEAKER_02 (06:26):
Yeah, last person's like, yeah, no, I'll just I
guess I just get to sit aroundand like I'm gonna look this up
a little bit.
What is it called?
Damn, that's gonna annoy theshit out of me.
But other people are screamingit at me into their like fucking
car speakers or something rightnow.
Like, you dummy.
This is what it's called.

SPEAKER_03 (06:41):
Right in to the Inmoderation podcast.

SPEAKER_02 (06:44):
Tell us about the gag gift and what's that thing
called.
God, that's gonna drive mecrazy.

SPEAKER_03 (06:49):
Legitimately, I I want to start working on this.
I think we could have somethingout.

SPEAKER_02 (06:53):
Oh, yeah, no, no, the crickets the crickets.
I mean, it's it's great for likea short, simple meal.
You just have your crickets,they just like hang out.
What do you feed crickets?
I have no idea.
And then you just grind them upinto uh a bulp and you make your
re-fried crickets or whatever.

SPEAKER_03 (07:08):
If you came here looking for things that you can
do in a short amount of time tofurther your progress and your
health, uh I perhaps maybe thisisn't the place to go.
Or maybe you've already wasted10 minutes.

SPEAKER_02 (07:20):
Or maybe, maybe it is, because I wanted to look up,
I want because I have beenfucking busy all week just like
moving shit and unpacking stuffand like everything.
So we've been trying to liketrying to get like short, simple
meals.
So I wanted to look up likefive.

SPEAKER_00 (07:32):
Your house is a less of a mess.

SPEAKER_02 (07:34):
It's less I look, I got shelves that are out, they
are not up yet.
I have a box from Bear Bell thatsent me, guess what they have
now?
Protein soda.
Apparently that's a thing.
Yeah, they sent me their proteinsoda with 200 milligrams of
caffeine.
I'm like, damn, Bear Bell, calmthe fuck down here.
I'm already high energy.
You don't need to give me 200milligrams of caffeine for this

(07:57):
for what's going on here.
Uh, but I guess I will be tryingthat soon.
There's three different flavors.
We'll see.
Everything has to No, this iskind of where I want to go.
Everything has protein now.
Uh, you know what I picked uptoday?
Protein go-urt.
That's what kids need.
Fucking protein go-gurt, andthere is uh uh protein pop
tarts.
Have you seen protein pop-tarts?
Have you seen that's a thing?

(08:17):
10 grams of protein.

SPEAKER_00 (08:18):
I went to Timmy's today and got a protein ice cap.

SPEAKER_02 (08:21):
Protein ice cap?
Like, is that ice cream?
What's that?

SPEAKER_00 (08:24):
Ice cappuccino.
Ice.

SPEAKER_02 (08:25):
Ice cappuccino.
Okay, yeah, I don't know what Idon't know what that is.
Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 (08:30):
Apparently, Timmy's now has protein coffee and
protein ice coffee.

SPEAKER_02 (08:34):
Oh.
Like, yeah, this is the thing.
It's just like everything,everything is protein-based.
And it's just kind of like, doyou do I kind of feel like it
pushes us away from the otherthings that we kind of need,
right?
Don't everybody else back me uphere.

SPEAKER_03 (08:48):
Not only does it push us away from the things
that we need to be looking at,it also isn't particularly true.
Like with the protein Pop Tarts,this is something that's been
bothering me for a while.
They added an extra like fourgrams of protein, but it's the
same amount of calories.
So it's still like 400 caloriesfor the uh two Pop Tarts, and

(09:08):
you're getting 10 grams ofprotein.
Oh, yeah, the Pop Tarts.

SPEAKER_02 (09:10):
No, the Pop-Tarts went from four, I think, to 10
for 400 calories.
And it's like, okay.

SPEAKER_03 (09:15):
You get better macros from peanut butter.

SPEAKER_02 (09:17):
Yeah, which I just got protein peanut butter.
I'm not gonna lie.
It was it's 10 grams of proteinas opposed to seven.
And I'm like, okay, sure, sure,Skippy.

SPEAKER_03 (09:27):
There needs to be regulation on what they can put
protein on the label of.

SPEAKER_02 (09:32):
Oh, that's a good point.
What do you okay, okay.
You think like, I don't think wecould uh put it up to like the
protein bar standard, right?
Where it has to be like 10 gramsof protein for every 100
calories.
I feel like that's a bit highthat we'd have to make it.
But like at least, at least 10for every 200 calories?
15, maybe?

(09:52):
50, I don't know, something,something like that.
Because yeah, it is kind ofridiculous that you say 10 grams
of protein for 400 calories andbe like, it's protein.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
It can't be bad.

SPEAKER_03 (10:02):
You'd have to eat like like 10,000 calories to get
your daily amount of protein.
Like it wouldn't be feasible.

SPEAKER_02 (10:09):
That would be a delicious 10,000 calories of Pop
Tarts.
How many Pop Tarts could you eatbefore you're like, all right,
I'm gonna throw up.
I can't eat any more calories.
I have this answer.
I've done it.
Yes, I would love this answer.

SPEAKER_03 (10:19):
I've eaten two boxes in a sitting.

SPEAKER_02 (10:21):
No, not two boxes.
Wait, isn't okay, so there's apack, isn't like each one have a
pack of like four.
There's eight Pop Tarts in abox.
There's yeah, I was gonna saythere's four, two, so there's
eight Pop Tarts.
So that's sixtep?

SPEAKER_03 (10:34):
I don't feel good.

SPEAKER_02 (10:36):
I really I'm shocked.
No way, sixteen pop there's Icouldn't eat six pop-tarts.

SPEAKER_03 (10:43):
I'd follow.
And I I mean back then I reallyshouldn't have either.

SPEAKER_02 (10:47):
No one should ever do that unless it's a good
thing.
Over the course of a couplehours now depends on it.
I don't know what scenario youended up there, but sure.

SPEAKER_03 (10:55):
My life depended on not doing it.

SPEAKER_02 (10:58):
16 Pop Tarts?
All right, let me so at Pop Tart9, were you just like, ah, fuck
it.
You're just like, I'm still I'mgoing hard, or was it a
challenge at that point whereyou opened up the second box and
you're like, whatever, I'm inthis shit.

SPEAKER_03 (11:12):
I'm I'm at that point when I'm buying the boxes
at the store knowing that I'mabout to bring these home and do
something unspeakable to them.
Like it when I bought things asa a bigger guy with the
intention of destroying them, Inever did so with excitement.
It was always like, ah, fuck,it's about to happen again.

SPEAKER_02 (11:33):
You just felt did you just feel this drive to do
it?
Like this ink, this like, Idon't know, like this the what
were you feeling like in thatsituation?

SPEAKER_03 (11:41):
It was the only thing I could choose.
The fact that I could point atsomething and say, no one's
gonna tell me not to have that.
No one's gonna ask me, well, whydo you need that?
Why do you have to have that?
Because that was how I wasreceived everywhere else in my
life at that point.

SPEAKER_02 (11:55):
Was it okay?
So you just felt like you it waslike something you could choose
and you needed the ability tochoose, like you're you're like,
I need some autonomy, and so I'mjust gonna do this.
This proves to me that I can doI can just do it.

SPEAKER_03 (12:08):
That's why I was at McDonald's three times a day,
not because the food was divine,but because I could ask a
question and get a favorableanswer.
And also at the time the fooddropped on my lap, I was already
disappointed.
I'd done the thing I came to do.

SPEAKER_02 (12:20):
Okay, okay.
How did you get did was and I'msure I mean I'm assuming there
was like a turning point, and itwasn't just one day you're like,
oh, I'm good.
There had to have been like atransition there.

SPEAKER_00 (12:29):
Oh sure, the 17th Pop Tart.

SPEAKER_02 (12:31):
That's when you're like, I'm done.
I draw the line here.
We're done.
If these were protein pop-tarts,it would be fine.
But obviously, I can't.

SPEAKER_03 (12:39):
At that point, yeah, then I'd I at least get 40 grams
of protein out of the deal.
But God, yeah, it was it wasn'tgood.
I mean, and a lot of people outthere can corroborate on this,
but it's I think a lot of us arenervous when we deal with this
kind of binge tendency to saythat it's not good or that we
don't like it because it's theonly thing we get to enjoy.

(13:01):
It's all we get to have.

SPEAKER_02 (13:02):
But you're saying there isn't that much enjoyment
in it, right?

SPEAKER_03 (13:04):
Though like maybe the first one, but like after a
certain point, it's just likeit's the mechanical routine of
just eating more.
Not like I'm excited about theninth pop tart.

SPEAKER_02 (13:16):
Right, because you know how you're gonna feel
afterwards, right?
So you gotta be kind of eatingas being like, I'm gonna feel
like total shit after this.

SPEAKER_03 (13:22):
Yeah, you you know that buying it that you're gonna
feel like shit.

SPEAKER_02 (13:25):
Right, you already know that.
Yeah, so then like what yeah,I'm curious, like was there was
there when when you stoppeddoing that, was it just kind of
a slow, like you did it less?
You did it less often?

SPEAKER_03 (13:35):
I did it, yeah, less I mean like for many years going
into the point where I'm at now,where like this year I've only
had uh like two or three thingsthat I would consider a binge,
and none of them on the level of16 Pop Tarts.
It's just like I maybe ate 500calories more than I intended
to.

SPEAKER_01 (13:53):
Okay.

SPEAKER_03 (13:54):
But it's at first it was, yeah, I know, right?
Shue me.
Um because maybe I won't haveenough money to buy more binge
foods.
But yeah, it was it really wasjust like uh yeah, it's it's
happening a little bit less.
Like throughout 2022 and 23, Iwas I was still doing it on a

(14:15):
fairly regular basis, but it wasless.

SPEAKER_02 (14:17):
Okay, and it was more controlled.
Yeah, I'm kind of curious.
So was was there things thatstopped you?
Like you were gonna do it, andthen you're like, uh, maybe I
don't do it this time because ofsomething, you know, whatever.

SPEAKER_03 (14:29):
When I started to separate myself from the feeling
of guilt around food, and when Istarted instead, like a lot of
people will say, I've got tostay within my calories, and
once they go over theircalories, they're like, Well,
fuck it, I'll go out and slashthe other three tires.
What really made the differencefor me was focusing on how I
felt rather than what thenumbers said because I needed
the habits.

(14:49):
I didn't realize I was forminghabits at that point, but what I
realize now and what I teachwhen people come to me for this
kind of thing, it's like focuson the feeling first.
You don't actually enjoy eatingan entire eight-pack of cinnamon
rolls.
You don't.
You like one cinnamon roll,except for Rob, who has an iron
stomach.

SPEAKER_02 (15:07):
Apparently.
Sorry, I have a Roomba's that'sright behind me.
Uh, we we got a Roomba,apparently.
My wife was setting it up, andclearly it's set up because I
got a little robot fuckingsucking up the floor behind me
right here.

SPEAKER_03 (15:19):
Did that shut down during the Amazon thing?
Was that one of the things thatwas?

SPEAKER_02 (15:22):
It's not napping, it's right here.
It's going all it's all aroundme.
Oh, mapping.
Sorry, I thought it was napping.
My bad.
Mapping, napping.
They're both the same word.
Go away.

SPEAKER_00 (15:34):
I mean, Roombas do need a nap now and then.

SPEAKER_02 (15:36):
They do, they spend so much time sucking.
That's that's nice.
We've given into the robots.
Cloudnet.
No, Skynet, Skynet, Cloudnet,Skynet, whatever it is.
Who gives a shit?
So, so I mean, like, okay, solike removing, so you kind of
removed the guilt and you werelike, okay, I can have this.
Like, it's okay if I have this.
Like that, that kind of thatjust doing that helped a little
bit.

SPEAKER_03 (15:56):
It made the food less special.
When I put food into twodifferent categories of this is
something that is untouchableand super good, and this is
something like because I nevercraved ground beef.
Right.
Like just unseasoned groundbeef.
It had to be something that wastasty and forbidden and
everything.
Now I do because I like thefeeling that I get from those

(16:18):
better whole foods.
But I also love my ice cream.

SPEAKER_02 (16:22):
Right.
That's the part I think getsleft out a lot.
It's like, why do I why do I eathealthy?
What's the main reason?
Because I feel better, honestly.
Like when I don't overeat and Ieat and I try and get like
fucking fruits, vegetables, allthat bullshit, whatever healthy
stuff, then I just feel better.
Then like I know if I wake upand have, yeah, like frozen

(16:43):
cinnamon rolls, I'm just notgonna feel like I want to do
very much.

SPEAKER_00 (16:46):
Yeah.
Speak for yourself again.

SPEAKER_02 (16:50):
You're just waking up in frozen cinnamon rolls,
like eight of them, and thenyou're ready to take on the day.

SPEAKER_00 (16:53):
Well, I'm in Canada every time.

SPEAKER_02 (16:55):
So do you do that after the 13-hour map or before?
Because I feel like it would bebefore, and then you go into a
coma.

SPEAKER_00 (17:00):
Yeah, that's that's about that's about it.
Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 (17:02):
Sugar, fat, and taste coma.

SPEAKER_00 (17:04):
Yeah.
But do we do an episode whereyou eat an entire thing?

unknown (17:08):
Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 (17:09):
An entire thing of cinnamon rolls?
Sure.
Yeah.
I just want to watch it.
Um my cinnamon rolls.
You know, I did that with thatsame thing with uh chips.
You know, when it was like ataboo thing, I was like, oh,
well, you know, I want to I'mgonna have these chips and these
chips and these chips.
And now it's like they're notanything special.

(17:30):
I walk past the chip aisle andit's like, yeah, I can I can
have those if I want them,whatever.
I see a nice, a brand newflavor, I'm like, yeah, I'll I'm
gonna try that.

SPEAKER_03 (17:39):
But everything else is like, yeah, I'm much more
about novelty these days.
If something is interesting andnew, I'm going for it.

SPEAKER_02 (17:46):
Yeah, I get that.
Well, good thing with the foodspace, like everything's new.
We got protein pop-tarts, we gotprotein everything.
Whatever you want to try,protein soda, sure, try it out.

SPEAKER_00 (17:56):
And those protein things cost so much more.

SPEAKER_02 (17:59):
Yeah, they do.
Like, so much more expensive.
Like the fucking cereals, bro.
Who ten dollars for a for a boxof cereal to me is wild.

SPEAKER_00 (18:09):
That is wild, yeah.

SPEAKER_02 (18:10):
And there's smaller boxes too.
So they're not even that manyservings in there.
And they always break it downinto servings, like it's only
like a dollar eighty forserving.
Get the fuck out of here.
I'm like frosted mini weeds arelike two bucks, and I get like
12 servings.
Shut up.
We're comparing you to othercereal, you fucker.

SPEAKER_03 (18:28):
I I will say that the ghost cereal is pretty good.

SPEAKER_02 (18:31):
Of all the protein cereals, I've said that that's
probably the best one, but stillit breaks down into this
powderiness after you eat it.
And I'm just like, do I wantthat?
Or can I just add a proteinshake to you know my cereal?
You know, I just picked up uhDimatized has well, they've had
like uh protein powder that'sfruity pebbles flavored, and I
just picked up their shakes.

(18:52):
Now they have like pre-madeshakes that are fruity pebbles.
Like, fuck it, there's 30 gramsof protein.
Throw that as my milk for somecereal, and boom, there we go.
That's better than like proteincereal.
Get out of here.

SPEAKER_03 (19:04):
Six star has a fruit loop flavor and a frosted flakes
flavor, and they're both veryaffordable.

SPEAKER_02 (19:09):
They are like a Walmart brand, or are they just
like that's yeah, that's aWalmart brand.

SPEAKER_03 (19:14):
I get them from Walmart.
You can also get them online forcheaper.
I like I got both of those for$14 each.

SPEAKER_02 (19:20):
Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 (19:20):
It was very affordable protein powder.

SPEAKER_02 (19:23):
I've heard mixed reviews on those, so some people
are like, no way, but like it'scheap.
So like what I say, try thecheap thing.
Try the cheap thing for people.
Always ask me about proteinpowder, and they're like, what
one's the best?
I'm like, there's no proteinpowder for me that's like head
and shoulders above everyoneelse.
Like, this is so good at all theprotein powder.
They're all protein powder.
They're all protected.

SPEAKER_00 (19:41):
I just remember being made in the same factory.

SPEAKER_02 (19:44):
Like, yeah, and that's the thing, it's like you
get these people selling it, andI get it.
They're like, no, this one'stotally different.
It doesn't taste like the other.
No, yes, it does.
It does.
It tastes just like the otherones, but yours is like cinnamon
booth flavor.
Like, I get that.
And and if you like cinnamonbooth, then go for it.
But like, it's not so muchbetter than the other one.
So I never really know what totell.
I'm just like, listen, they'reall protein powder.

(20:05):
You gotta just like trydifferent ones.
And I know that sucks to belike, well, I'm putting paying
$30,$40 for a thing.
Oh, I don't like it.
Like, see if they have thelittle you know, trial size
things or whatever.
Maybe try that online.
I don't know.

SPEAKER_00 (20:21):
No, Slave City.

SPEAKER_03 (20:23):
What's the one?
There's a a carnivore influencerthat had a protein powder.

SPEAKER_02 (20:27):
Oh, yeah.
Paul Saladino.
I have that in my basement.

SPEAKER_03 (20:31):
It's awful.

SPEAKER_02 (20:32):
Oh, yeah, no.
For a Fat Guy Fitness sent it tome, and I'm like, I've had it,
and I'm just like, I don't want,I don't want to try it.
Like, I know it's gonna be soabhorrent that I just I can't
bring myself to put it in waterand drink it, you know, because
it's just like fucking bulltesticle skins and shit.
Like, I don't want to flavored.

SPEAKER_03 (20:50):
It's there's no like it's you are just putting
protein into water, and it'slike just like our aunt.
Yeah, it it is dog food.
It tastes like I'd rather eatjust straight up dog food.

SPEAKER_02 (21:02):
At least there's crunched.

SPEAKER_03 (21:04):
We drank that on the uh the American Heart
Association uh fundraiser.
Yeah, it was it was one of thegoals.
We had that in the carnivorebar, which is just like pemmican
fat.

SPEAKER_01 (21:15):
Yeah, it's just a fat bar with that sounds so bad.

SPEAKER_03 (21:20):
It was really not good.
What was good was Scotty'sprotein powder.
Speaking of Scotty, I had someof that while it was in
development.
Oh, okay.
And it was quite good.
It is now out, so it's notsecretive.

SPEAKER_02 (21:35):
How much is Scotty paying you to say that?
Right.
Code, Mike needs a plan.

SPEAKER_03 (21:39):
Hold on, before I go any further, let me let me check
my Venmo.
Dude, just look into the TikTokshop.

SPEAKER_02 (21:44):
I'm telling you, like anything with like I'm all
my I think across likeeveryone's video views are like
down on TikTok.
The only ones that do well arewhen I link something in the
TikTok shop.
They're just like pushing thatso on.

SPEAKER_03 (21:56):
Yep.

SPEAKER_02 (21:56):
Just fucking link everything.
Ridiculous.

SPEAKER_03 (22:00):
Views have been down for a lot of people in general
right now.

SPEAKER_02 (22:03):
Yeah, it's most I'm just like whatever.

SPEAKER_00 (22:06):
I should get your TikTok information and link your
you to the Tink Tok TikTok shopwith the in moderation shop.
And so in moderation stuff everypost.

SPEAKER_02 (22:16):
I should just fucking link that.
Exactly.
Oh yeah, and also here's asweater.
Like it'll probably do better.
Like it reached more people andmaybe help them.

SPEAKER_00 (22:24):
I'd love to link it myself, but you know, Canadians
still don't have it.

SPEAKER_03 (22:29):
Oh right, Canada.
Yeah.
Let's let's fundraise to get Robto the US so he can make some.

SPEAKER_02 (22:37):
I don't know if he wants to come to the US right
now.
I mean, there's it's just notlike you know, there's a lot of
race for us.

SPEAKER_03 (22:45):
Yeah, yeah, you're gonna be with us.
I'm I'm very excited about that.
Now we just gotta apparently I Ijust found out, what, a week ago
that you two have never met inperson.

SPEAKER_02 (22:54):
Yeah.
But wait, I don't go to likeevents or some shit.
I never go like I never goanywhere.
The only reason I went tofreaking uh what's you call it,
Arnold is because I lived 15minutes away from it.

SPEAKER_03 (23:07):
That was that was it.
I'm also not a fitness eventguy.

SPEAKER_02 (23:10):
Right?
So I've not made it.

SPEAKER_03 (23:12):
I I had assumed you guys met on Twitch.

SPEAKER_02 (23:16):
Yeah, fair.
Fair like reasonable.
Why?

SPEAKER_00 (23:18):
What's happening?

SPEAKER_02 (23:19):
Oh boy, we this podcast was gonna be short, it's
gonna be real long now.

SPEAKER_03 (23:24):
So in 1776, let them know Oakley's gotta stay
overnight.

SPEAKER_01 (23:28):
But no, this is rough.
It's it's it's fine.
It's it's all it's all fine.

SPEAKER_03 (23:34):
It's a good one if at some point there are
archaeologists listening to thispodcast a few hundred years in
the future to try to glean whatwas happening.
We currently still there's apart of us that assumes that
this is not gonna end in nuclearfallout.

SPEAKER_02 (23:46):
Just look up crickets.
That's all you should just lookup crickets and you'll figure it
out.

SPEAKER_03 (23:51):
And buy our cricket recipe book.
Yeah, they'll be eating theircrickets and mash listening to
old podcasts and like oh, that'swhere it started.

SPEAKER_02 (23:59):
Oh, cricket powder, like cricket protein powder?

SPEAKER_03 (24:01):
You think we could, isn't it?

SPEAKER_02 (24:04):
I mean, there's cricket powder for like flour
and stuff, you know, like youuse it, you sub out some flour
and you use cricket powder.

SPEAKER_00 (24:10):
There's definitely cricket protein powder.

SPEAKER_03 (24:12):
If if somebody made me fucking blueberry muffins and
I bit into it and there was afucking cricket in it, I'm
either losing my mind orthanking in moderation for the
uh recipe.
Is that what we're talking?
Cricut flour?
Yeah, there's cricket protein.
I've got cricket protein.

SPEAKER_02 (24:31):
There's definitely cricket protein.
You make like cricket bread orwhatever.

SPEAKER_03 (24:35):
Cricket.
Because here's the thing if weput these recipes into the the
book, we're gonna have to makethem to make sure that they
work.

SPEAKER_02 (24:44):
Are we?
Or can we just fucking say wedid?
I'm I'm more on that side.

SPEAKER_03 (24:48):
We've got a golden opportunity for one, a gorilla
marketing campaign, and two, tomake a whole fuck ass amount of
money on selling cricket proteinpowder through a TikTok shop on
Inmoderation.
Tell me I'm wrong.

SPEAKER_00 (24:59):
Okay, well, just get Scotty to sample them all for
us.
Nobody tell them they're cricketuntil afterwards.

SPEAKER_03 (25:04):
It's made of crickets.
Seriously?
Fuck v shrimp.

SPEAKER_00 (25:07):
You're getting pretty good at that.
I gotta get myself a mustache.
But Mike, Identity identitytheft is no joke.

SPEAKER_02 (25:13):
Absolutely.
Sorry, white elephant.
That's the name of the fuckingChristmas thing exchange.
I'm like losing my mind overhere.
Or Yankee Swap.

SPEAKER_00 (25:22):
But that has nothing to do with black.

SPEAKER_02 (25:23):
It was it was a color.
It was a color.
You can't be there.
I got the wrong color.
I was like, okay, I feel betternow.
Now, now now I can now I cansleep for 13.

SPEAKER_03 (25:34):
I think you said white elephant.
Because white elephant is whenyou get assigned somebody.
I think what you're describingis a different thing.

SPEAKER_02 (25:41):
I thought that's listen.
I'm looking at fucking AIoverview here, man.

SPEAKER_03 (25:45):
I don't know how you think you're like you're
describing the Hunger Games tome, is what you're doing.
I've never even heard of thisarrangement.

SPEAKER_02 (25:51):
I don't know, man.
I think I listen.
I'm pretty sure.
I don't know.
It's something.
It doesn't matter.

SPEAKER_03 (25:58):
Write in to the in moderation podcast to our P.O.
box.
We don't have a P.O.
box.
What do we have?
Where can people write in?

SPEAKER_00 (26:07):
Uh they can write it on a piece of paper and throw it
in Liam's general direction.

SPEAKER_02 (26:13):
I mean, just no.
Put it in a bottle, throw itinto the ocean, and it'll end up
with all the other plastic.

SPEAKER_03 (26:19):
We didn't say we're gonna read it, just write in.
Let it go to the greatinmoderation letter patch in the
Pacific Ocean to rot away and beeaten by fish.

SPEAKER_02 (26:28):
Anyway, speaking of short on time, which we weren't
talking about, but I did want tobring up because that was the
whole thing.
Because I'm like, I yeah, I'mlike, I've been short on time,
so I wanted to come up with somethings.
So I was like looking up, like,what's meals to make on short on
time?
I got five things, and I want torun through them quickly.
Ramen.
Ramen gets a bad fucking rap forbeing unhealthy.
Love ramen.
It really does.

(26:48):
Like, oh yeah, you guys sodiumand like I get that, but like,
bro, it's super quick.
It's like, well, I think theyvoted on like what's the
greatest thing Japan has giventhe world, and like the
unanimous decision was ramen.
Like, everyone's like, no,ramen's the best thing.
And like, I totally agree.
Because it's so easy just to addother shit to it.
I'm gonna make this like a misoramen one with like peanut

(27:09):
butter and like a bunch of likevegetables and shit.

SPEAKER_00 (27:13):
Cricket and bean ramen.

SPEAKER_02 (27:14):
Cricket and bean ramen, that's my next recipe.
It's probably not gonna do superwell.
And then also uh salad recipes,which I fucking love the bag
salads.
I feel like those are like justsuper and it's like sealed, so
it lasts a little bit longer,and when you buy the greens and
it goes bad.
And then you can just likeagain, just add other shit.
Like, honestly, for me, what Ido cut open a bag salad, throw a

(27:37):
can of tuna in there and somedressing, and just shake that
shit up.
And boom, I got the I gotproteins, I got fats from the
dressing, and I got like carbsfrom the other, you know, the
salad.

SPEAKER_00 (27:49):
And you got some exercise from shaking it.

SPEAKER_02 (27:51):
And you shake it and you just shake it.
I I've been at work, I used todo that at work all the time.
People look at me, I'm like,listen, don't knock this shit
till you try it.
It's a good idea.
It's a good idea.
I throw some like beets in therebecause I also really like
beets, but I never put beets inthose things.
I guess a lot of people don'tlike beets.

SPEAKER_03 (28:05):
Oatmeal is another quick and filling one.
Yeah, like the glyphosate.
We can't we can't actually evenreliably detect the amount of
glyphosate that makes it intoour food.
So don't worry about it.
You're being sold on garbage.

SPEAKER_02 (28:19):
You got the little packets, or you do like the
overnight oats.
I'm gonna do like a tiramisuone, like a coffee one soon.
Like you put your coffee inthere so that way you have your
like caffeine if you're short ontime, like the night before,
throw some coffee in with theoats, and then you know,
whatever else, like nuts orchocolate or whatever, and then
you just have you have that.
You eat that in the morning,like boom.
Yeah, or you can even blend itinto like a shake and then like

(28:40):
have that in the morning, andjust like have a shake that has
coffee and oats and chocolate orwhatever, whatever is easiest,
you know.
You talked about pasta before,like that's something that's
like I go to all the time.
My I have a cabinet that's likeI got the bean cabinet, and then
I have a pasta like there's likefull of pasta.

SPEAKER_03 (28:55):
Do you know about Brahme pasta?

SPEAKER_02 (28:57):
Brahme pasta.
What the hell is that?

SPEAKER_03 (28:59):
Yeah, B-R-A-M-I.
Look it up.
Brahme pasta.
I it is I have 20 boxes of.
I'm not even kidding you.

SPEAKER_00 (29:06):
I was gonna say, I feel like you've mentioned it
before.

SPEAKER_03 (29:08):
Yeah, they don't hardly ever stock it.
I've only ever seen it atWalmart.
It is it's made of lipini bits.
Yeah, and it's so good.
It's got a great, it doesn'tfall apart like chickpea pasta
does.
Chickpea pasta does do that.
Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 (29:21):
Oh, it's got nine grams of fiber like per serving.

SPEAKER_03 (29:24):
And 21 grams of protein, though it is
technically incomplete if youconsider the amino acid profile.
But we're not gonna get pickyhere.
There are ways to complete that.

SPEAKER_02 (29:32):
I guess that is for 350 calories, but still, like
that's typically people aren'teating.

SPEAKER_03 (29:36):
That's the same amount as a usual pasta for that
same serving.

SPEAKER_02 (29:41):
Because like the serving size is like two ounces
dry, but like who the fuck iseating two ounces of pasta?
No one.

SPEAKER_03 (29:48):
It's it's the same amount of I have no idea what an
ounce is with great macros.

SPEAKER_02 (29:53):
I think that's 8,000 grams or something.
One ounce is not 8,000 grams.

SPEAKER_03 (29:57):
Okay.

SPEAKER_02 (29:58):
Not even no one knows the conversion anyway.
Just move along.
It's fine.
But yeah, like you normally eatlike three, 400 calories worth
of pasta, so that's more likeactually reasonable.
I like that too.
And again, like you had sauce,and like what the fuck sauce is
made out of?
Tomatoes, boom, vegetable.
Problem solid.

SPEAKER_03 (30:14):
I eat that literally every night.
Really?
Like that often?

SPEAKER_02 (30:19):
And I'm also getting suddenly become obese.
And you're also getting iron,apparently.
Like it's good to be able to doit.
Getting iron?

SPEAKER_03 (30:25):
Yeah.
It's beans.
They're magical food.

SPEAKER_02 (30:28):
Fucking beans are so great.
Beans are the best, man.
Oh, but don't eat them raw.
I saw this thing where there waslike a woman that was like
grating raw beans and thenputting it over her like meal
and be like, it's crunchy.
And I'm like, it's poison.
Yeah, we don't want to do that.
It's crunchy poison.
Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 (30:46):
Tell the uh the viewers why it is that that is
poison, just so they know.

SPEAKER_02 (30:50):
That was that's very high in lectins.
There's people like Dr.
Gundry, they're like, don't eatbeans because they have lectins.
Once you cook them, you're good.
Don't eat raw uh beans.
Bad idea.
That's no, that's no point.
I gotta try this Brahmi Fastothough.
I'll look for that when I'm atlike Walmart.
Apparently, Target sells it aswell.

SPEAKER_03 (31:06):
Also, yes, for those of you who are hearing more
about raw foods and raw milk andeverything.
Technically speaking, there aremore nutrients in the pre-cooked
food.
However, it is more bioavailableto you if you cook it.
So you will get more nutrientsfrom the food cooked than you
will raw.

SPEAKER_02 (31:22):
Isn't it so interesting?
Like, we started cooking foods,and that's like one of the
things that made our brainsgood.
It's like our brains got betterbecause we cooked food and we
rave, and they're and people noware like, no, that's stupid.
But then again, we also havepeople who are like think the
earth is flat and shit.
So like, whatever.
We always go backwards.

SPEAKER_00 (31:41):
We live in interesting times.
We live in a society.

SPEAKER_02 (31:43):
Next one is sandwiches, and I get very upset
with like the the freakingslander, the slander that
sandwiches get, like, oh, breadcarbs.
Like, sandwiches are so I eat Iprobably eat a sandwich, maybe
not every day, but like mostdays.
Peanut butter and jelly is justlike the simplest thing, or like
tuna or something, just put itsomething on toast or whatever.

(32:05):
Like bread, I have multipletypes of bread.
I also picked up um peasantbread at the bakery.
It's called peasant bread.
Can I tell you what that is?
I absolutely cannot.
But what I can tell you is ithas to be good because I mean,
what do peasants know besidesbread?
Like, that's it.
They gotta be good at bread atleast.
And potato, yeah, sure,potatoes, you throw that in
there too, but they definitelyknow they're bread.
So, like, and so like, yeah,throw other shit, like you know,

(32:29):
it's usually when you have asandwich, you throw like some
sort of like vegetables and shiton there.
Like, sandwiches are awesome.

SPEAKER_03 (32:36):
Bacon, egg, and cheese most mornings.

SPEAKER_02 (32:37):
Bacon, egg, and cheese.
I like that.
You know what I do like is um II actually am a fan of the
morning star like black beanburger type things.
Like, those are so simple.
That's just like beans, that'san easy way to get beans.
Like, if you don't like textureand shit, like throw it in a
sandwich or bun or whatever.
Like, there you go.
Beans, throw an onion on there,tomato, problem solve.

SPEAKER_03 (32:59):
You tried the black bean brownies, right?

SPEAKER_02 (33:02):
Yeah, I do like black bean brownies.
I like it.
I you blend black beans withlike a little bit of water or
something just so they blend up,and then you put it into a
brownie mix.
And it's like, oh, yeah, ifyou're having issues, people ask
me, like, I have to the textureof beans, uh, and I'm like,
black bean brownies, hummus,refried beans, uh, you know,
pasta made out of beans.

(33:22):
Like, there's so many optionsnow.
You have like nearly endlessoptions.
Black bean burger, something.
Uh, and then the last one ispizza.
Damn, I love pizza.
Let me tell you, let me tellyou, there's a place down the
road called Gusto's.
And if you're in like theAlbany, New York area, that's
been my favorite so far.

(33:43):
And it's like there's like thisold guy who's kind of crabby,
but you know he makes goodpizza, like you can tell
immediately.
He's like, What do you want?
You're like, oh, this is gonnabe some good ass fucking pizza.
Yeah.
And like it is, it's got thatcrispy crust that folds up.
Oh, it's so and they sell by theslice.
Oh, when I went to Ohio, wewould go to a pizza place and
I'd be like, Yeah, let me get aslice of pizza.
And my wife'd be like, What is aslice of pizza?

(34:04):
Like, you have to order thepizza.
I'm like, no, no, no, no.
You go in and you ask for aslice of cheese pizza and they
heat it up and give to you.
But apparently that's just likea New York thing, and then it's
like one of the few things I'mhappy to be back in New York
where they just sell slices ofpizza.
I just want a slice of pizza.
I don't want a whole pizza.
I just want a slice of pizza,please, and thank you.

SPEAKER_03 (34:22):

No, it's like not a thing.
So it's yeah, that was a cultureshock when I got here to Texas.
Is that you can't get a slice.
Why no?
Why no do that?
Why no they don't sell as many?
Like over there at Gusto's,they're going through like you
know, a thousand pies a day.
They can do that.

SPEAKER_02 (34:37):

SPEAKER_03 (35:12):
It's definitely made of asbestos, that oven, but it's
as long as you don't mess withit.

SPEAKER_02 (35:17):
Like, asbestos is fine, as long as you leave it
be, and we're leaving it be, andit's fine.

SPEAKER_03 (35:22):
I'm gonna die a happy fed man.

SPEAKER_00 (35:24):

pizza's bad for you when youtake all the individual
individual ingredients, and youwould be like, Yeah, that's

Are You A Charlotte?

Are You A Charlotte?

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
