Megan also tells us  why pets of all shapes & sizes have brought great pleasure to her life.This episode opens with Johns experience of how a simple errand across town can turn into a vomity & bloody Seinfeldian experience. Amy gives us her perspective on diet culture, how it specifically targets women, & how changing the conversation from calorie counting to nourishment is a healthier option for personal nutrition.   This weeks featured music is by Chai.   Their new record Wink is out now on Sub Pop Records.    As always, John & Amy remind us that We're Not Alone.
