The Mishungerstood Podcast

There are three absolutes in life: death, taxes, & an overwhelming ignorance of our health & fitness. Even worse, the lines that separate fact from fiction become blurred in the age of social media influencers. However, in this sea of misinformation, The MisHUNGERstood Podcast throws you a lifeline. Listen in as our weekly guests help navigate our bodies in creative discussions of health, fitness, nutrition, recovery, & much more. Together we can bridge the gap, so fewer people are MisHUNGERstood. Listener discretion is advised. Thank you and enjoy!
