## Resource

Jordan and Nate are back live this week, kicking off with genuinely useful talk about mobility work, self experimentation, and using AI to plug in your own blood work and genetics for a targeted health plan. From there it is a stacked news day: Trump's fresh executive order cracking down on meat packing monopolies and opening up direct to consumer sales for small ranchers, plus Trump publicly defending unvaccinated Amish communities amid Pennsylvania's ongoing measles controversy. They dig into a genuinely wild story about a researcher behind a major vaccine autism study pleading guilty to fraud, the FDA cracking down on overseas peptide vendors while Eli Lilly quietly sues the same market it helped create, and a hopeful stat on soda sales dropping after SNAP reform. The show wraps with a candid, occasionally hilarious conversation about screen addiction in kids and what actually gets them back outside. Equal parts hard news and honest banter.
