Liam and Dr. Fran dig into why the rotisserie chicken discourse won't die, how comedy became one of the most effective tools for debunking nutrition misinformation, and why \"black and white\" advice sells better online than the boring truth (eat fiber, get protein, sleep more — groundbreaking, we know). They talk about spotting the tell-tale sign of a grifter — an Instagram bio stuffed with $45 supplements — and why fear-mongering about affordable staples like seed oils, chicken, and cottage cheese disproportionately hurts people who can least afford the \"clean\" alternative. The conversation gets personal too, as Liam opens up about growing up on WIC and food stamps, why he's tired of hearing people call struggling families \"moochers,\" and how privilege shapes so much of the wellness advice we see online. Plus: rapid-fire questions, the worst thing anyone has ever done to cottage cheese, and an origin story involving MADtv, grocery store debunking videos, and a guy who thinks broken bells are making us sick.
