RUNGA Radio 041 | Dry Farm Todd - The Truth About Conventional Wine
Todd White has a dream job. He flies all over the world to hang out with winemakers, cooking and learning and, of course, drinking wine together. The best part? He wakes up every day with no hangover, ready to meditate and work out and do it all over again. That’s because the wine Todd drinks is natural, free of the toxins, sugars, and other additives that contribute to the unpleasant effects often associated with wine. An expert on the natural wine production process, Todd founded Dry Farm Wines to curate pure artisan wines, derived from grapes grown on small, sustainable family farms, and share them with wine connoisseurs and health enthusiasts around the world.
Todd joins me from California for an in-depth explanation of natural wine production and the factors that set it so far apart from the commercial wine you find in a grocery store or at a restaurant. He gives us some insight into his life as a natural wine producer, what it’s like to traverse the globe to attend natural wine fairs, and how he’s created a business he never wants to sell. We dive into the wine industry’s dirty secrets and unpack some common misconceptions about regulations, label accuracy, and point rating systems. It’s an episode chock-full of fascinating facts that you can share with your friends at a post-quarantine dinner party—don’t forget to bring a bottle of Dry Farm Wines along!

After first sitting down with Raja’s Seed co-founder, Ara Katz, I began to dig a little deeper into the traditional "probiotic" industry—only to be quite disappointed with the reality of the effectiveness of almost all probiotic products on the market. Seed, on the other hand, has 23 strain-specific clinical studies behind it that demonstrate its effectiveness. Their innovative 2-in-1 capsule also nests the probiotics inside a prebiotic (sourced from Indian pomegranate and organic wild-harvested Scandinavian chaga and pine bark) capsule for additional protection, ensuring the probiotics actually get where they need to be inside of you—your gut.

After six weeks of being quarantined in Europe, I can say with certainty that my Traeger Grill is what I miss the MOST about my home in Los Angeles. I can only imagine that if I were home right now what I’d be cooking. Chances are I would be practicing my 8-hour slow-cooks of beef brisket or ribs. Traeger Grills are second to none when it comes to gourmet-quality grilling. Like no other grill, they offer backyard chefs an incredible support system to guide your flavor journey and to ensure the perfection of your end result. Traeger’s WiFire technology paired with the Traeger App (which has over 1500 recipes!) syncs to your grill and built-in meat thermometer, coaching you through the entire process. If you are in the market and you want it to be the last time you buy a grill that you can cook on for years to come, look no further than Traeger Grills.
