Episode 46 Paleo For Noobs

February 4, 2015February 4, 2015 James Burnette 161 Comments

Join James and Mike this week as we tackle topics such as. Cheap gas and what is really means. The EPA is protecting us from wood burning stoves. The main topic this week is paleo for noobs. I got an email on how to get started on paleo.

Many people would love to get started on paleo but don’t know how. What is paleo and what do you eat? What are the rules to follow and what ones can be broken. Mike and I answer your questions on all things paleo. James shares tips with you on how to be successful. Mike shares his experience when he went hardcore paleo. The wild edible of the week is Black Walnuts and Butternuts. Bill Molison is the Permaculture Minute from the Permaculture playing cards.

You can really geek out on the science of why to eat a paleo diet. If you are interested in that I suggest picking up Robb Wolf’s Book The Paleo Solution. It was what got me started on paleo. Robb digs deep into the science behind why eating this way is good for you.

Income Tax And You

Tax season is upon us. For many this means tax refunds. Hopefully you use your wisely. It is money being returned to you after a thief stole “too much”. For some you will owe the IRS more money. I’m sorry for you. I have owed them money in the past. Nothing worse than being told that after a year of theft you owe more money.

We aren’t here to talk about those that are over taxed and those that pay nothing. That is a topic for another time. Today is about a misconception. That the income tax being stolen from you does something for your country. I read the following on Facebook recently.

“Let me look at it for what it is.. it’s an investment. Supposedly. My tax dollars are an investment into this country, and for it to be a sound investment; then I would have to *believe* in this country.”

The post went on about how our “leaders” are incompetent. Policy is getting worse and worse. To be honest all good points. With the exception of it being based on a fallacy. What is the fallacy” Let’s find out.

Sameplate For Finding A Love

As many of you know I am a single guy. Being such a great catch you may find this absurd. Well I am very picky and have some eccentricities. A big one being that I’m paleo. I feel very strongly about my diet. I completely believe that humans are not supposed to eat grains. So going on a date and seeing my date devour toxic garbage for food is a turn off.

Most dating sites glance over diets and food. It may mention food in passing. On Sameplate it’s all about food. Sameplate is a dating site for foodies, cooks and dieters.

This week we mix things up a little. We kick around a slightly different format. Mostly we cover a few news stories. We talk about film maker Michael Moore’s comments on the American Sniper movie. We spend most the episode ripping him a new one. Which then turns into a liberal rant episode.

Warning this episode contains a lot of cussing. We both snap out a little. Maybe a lot. With all the stupidity going on sometimes you just have to.
