The Heather Running Joke
- Will Cole frequently called people "Heather" and turned it into a running joke with his team and listeners.
- The anecdote humanizes the show and encourages listener participation with voice messages.
Choose Whole Food Plant Proteins
- Avoid most highly processed vegan "meats" because they contain fillers, emulsifiers, and hard-to-digest plant proteins.
- Choose minimally processed plant proteins like fermented tempeh, natto, hemp, or pressure-cooked legumes instead.
