I've always been a truth seeker… which is at the core of everything I do. And so winning the Ultimate Fighter and producing The Game Changers are  really manifestations of that deep desire to find out the truth. I'm honestly not really sure where that comes from. I know I hate being lied to. There are a lot of correlations actually, between martial arts - there's a lot of BSS in the martial arts world, people teaching stuff that doesn't work - And I feel it's the same in the diet space… teaching all these diets that just aren't based on the evidence.  - James Wilks


I have a ton of respect and admiration for today’s special guest, not only because of all that he’s accomplished in his life and career… but also because of the truth-seeker he is and his commitment doing everything in his power to make sure people across the globe also have access to the truth when it comes to nutrition, plant-based advocacy and sustainability. 


His name is James Wilks and most people know him as the producer and narrator of The Game Changers: the critically-acclaimed documentary about the dramatic rise of plant-based eating in professional sports. 


James is an elite combatives instructor and winner of The Ultimate Fighter. We go places in this interview that I haven’t heard him go during other interviews, exploring the man behind the accolades, an update on Game Changers 2, and a look Into his latest venture as the CEO of FȲTA: A line of delicious, convenient plant-based protein products designed to optimize athletic performance, health, and environmental sustainability.
