  • Vinnie turns to the topic of social media trolls and they chat about how to deal with them. (15:45)
    • Dave explains how he wants prefers to handle them.
    • He talks about how a “steel man vs straw man” argument dynamic works, as well as the Motte-Bailey Fallacy.
    • He likes to reward good decorum in a debate; his goal is to move the needle in the conversation.
  • Vinnie talks about what inspired him to make “Beyond Impossible”. (26:15)
    • They discuss how plant-based burgers still lend to the killing of animals and high carbon footprints. 
    • They also discuss the  (incorrect) assumption that plant-based is better for the environment.
      • For example, fresh fruit used to be local and seasonal; however now it is shipped from all over the world year-round, which adds to the carbon footprint.
  • Finally, Dave gives an update about his most recent study regarding LMHR (lean mass hyper-responders). (40:00)
