"I've been trying to make this change too. And I think, you know, Dave, we've been paying it a little bit of lip service in terms of meat acceleration," he said. "It's kind of crazy that we could just go down to any grocery store and just buy a ribeye every single day if you wanted to." He added: "When you sit down and you have a steak that you literally like almost killed yourself for, you eat everything ... It's an amazing feeling"
After a drop-in visit from the Podfather, who then proceeds to rejoice in the pleasures of populist food and culture, Dave and Chris speak with Tyler Huggins—CEO and cofounder of Meati Foods. He brings his unique point of view on environmentalism and sustainable food systems to address the problem of a potential global protein shortage with Meati: a meat alternative made out of mycelium. Other topics include ‘Top Gun: Maverick’ (again), backcountry splitboarding, and what to do with a year’s worth of elk meat.
