The Meat Mafia Podcast is hosted by @CarniClemenza and @MrSollozzo with the mission of addressing fundamental problems in our food and healthcare system. Our concerns with our healthcare system can be drawn back to problems in our food system as far back as soil health. Our principles are simple: eat real foods, buy locally, and cook your own meals. When you listen to our podcast you will hear stories and conversations from people working on the fringes of the food and healthcare system to address the major crises overshadowing modern society: how do we become healthy again? themeatmafiapodcast.substack.com
