 Bill & Hayley of Food Lover’s Primal Palate: Gather, A Gluten-Free Wedding, and The Cutest Dog Ever | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 38:22

Today we're talking to Bill & Hayley of "The Food Lover's Primal Palate." The author's of the hit cookbook "Make It Paleo" are back with a new book "Gather: The Art of Paleo Entertaining," set to be released on April 30, and it looks absolutely amazing! Shortly after that their next book "The 30 Day Guide to Paleo Cooking: Entire Month of Paleo Meals" will be released on June 11. Needless to say, these guys have been busy! Before we get to the show, I wanted to let you know we have a few of our own books that are available on Kindle. We are going to be getting those into printed version very soon here, but in the meantime you can go here and check out the Kindle versions on Amazon. In today's show we talk about: How to make the world's tastiest soups from bone broth What it's like to be planning their 100% Gluten-Free wedding How to feed your puppy raw food Why their dog is named "Charlie Dickens" And what it's like to eat black bear Here's the show:      

 Ori Hofmekler: The Warrior Diet, Intermittent Fasting, and How to Be a Bona Fide Renaissance Man | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: Unknown

Ori Hofmekler is a fellow renaissance man; not only is he a world renowned artist, but he is also the author of the ground breaking Warrior Diet and many other health and fitness books.

 John Romaniello: Man 2.0: Engineering the Alpha, the Problems with Being Skinny, and What Tucker Max Says About His Book | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: Unknown

John Romaniello (better known as Roman) runs Roman Fitness Systems with a tongue-in-cheek approach to fitness. Equal parts narcissism and self-loathing, Roman writes with passion and humor, show-casing his belief that training doesn’t need to be serious, stern, science-laden monotony. It can be fun, too. Roman stopped by The Fat-Burning Man Show before going on other shows such as Dr Oz, The Colbert Show, and a few other stops in the mainstream media to talk about his new book, Man 2.0: Engineering the Alpha. This is a fun show, but let's put it this way: it's a bit more "Tucker Max" than "Paul Jaminet." I already know this show is going to be controversial. If you're offended by colorful language, what a male at 23 years old has to say about sex (or women in general), or a few other topics that might raise some eyebrows, you may want to skip to the next show. That said, Roman is brutally honest about his transformation from a chubby kid to a model and unapologetically shares his physical, mental and emotional journey with all of us. It takes a great deal of courage, and gumption, to do that, so there's a lot to learn from the show if you pay attention. * If you are listening to the podcast, we've bleeped out the potty mouth words. In today's show we talk about: What it’s like to go from being a chubby kid to ripped The head trash that comes along with body transformation (that no one talks about) How you can dramatically improve your life while improving your body And why Tucker Max and Arnold Schwarzenegger say Roman’s book doesn’t suck.

 Gary Taubes: Why We Get Fat, the Problem with Calories, and Why Eating Eggs Won’t Kill You | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: Unknown

Gary Taubes is an award-winning science writer and the bestselling author of the groundbreaking and controversial books Good Calories, Bad Calories and Why We Get Fat. Gary has been a contributing correspondent for the journal Science since 1993, and has contributed articles to The Atlantic Monthly, The New York Times Magazine, Esquire, and Slate. Gary studied applied physics at Harvard University, aerospace engineering at Stanford, and journalism at Columbia University. But fortunately for all of us, he's dedicated himself to tearing down conventional nutritional theory with his research, books, as well as the co-Founder of the Nutrition Science Initiative (NuSi). My first response to Gary's work in Good Calories, Bad Calories, was giddy delight. Why? Because I believe that the underlying cause of the obesity epidemic isn't in eating too much and exercising too little. People are fat because they are malnourished and their bodies malfunction. This is a thesis I hadn't seen articulated sufficiently before discovering Gary's work. A few other reasons why Gary's books are must-reads: They're are dripping in solid science. When someone demands, "I want proof that carbs are fattening, restricting calories isn't healthy, whole wheat is dangerous, and eggs won't kill me," throw this book at them. Watch their eyes roll back in their head when the happen upon the formidable references section. Gary provides historical insight into how conventional wisdom about a "healthy diet" was confounded by bad science and commandeered by special interests. Although the books can be heady, they're certainly readable. Generally, slogging through science is tedious, but these books are surprisingly accessible and entertaining. Another very cool side-effect of getting Gary on the show was an unexpected insight. It was difficult to find a time to get us both on the horn because Gary tends to write until 1 pm on most days with limited distractions - no shows / interviews / unnecessary technology, etc. Doesn't that sound nice? Actually reserving time for yourself in the mornings to crank out work? I've started reserving my mornings for work, as well, and it's been amazing. No phone, no e-mail, no Facebook, no junk. Just clear-headed, creative work. Loving it. Alright, onto the show. This one's content-packed, so grab your notebooks and get stoked. We cover: Why before the 1960's, everyone knew what actually makes us fat What makes us fat and why Why eating eggs won't give you a heart attack Whether or not there's such thing as a safe starch As well as the one thing that Gary cut out of his diet to lose 15 pounds effortlessly Here's the show.
