The Primal Kitchen Podcast

Generally speaking, the basic Primal Blueprint for fitness and physical activity applies equally to men and women of all ages. Lifting heavy things works in everyone. Sprinting is a fantastic way—for anyone who’s able—to compress workouts and improve training efficiency. Improving one’s aerobic capacity through easy cardio doesn’t discriminate between the sexes. And everyone should walk, hike, garden, and perform as much low level physical activity as possible. These basic foundations—the 30,000 foot view of fitness—don’t really change across age or sex.

In this episode of the Primal Kitchen Podcast, we meet Salim, a former nuclear power plant engineer turned health and wellness entrepreneur. Salim recounts his transformative journey, beginning with a successful yet unfulfilling career in engineering, leading to the inception of Soundtea.

His exploration into health and wellness was sparked by a personal tragedy - the loss of his father to cancer. This pivotal moment propelled him into researching natural health remedies and adopting a unique diet strategy, including a one-meal-a-day routine and microdosing psilocybin for wellness enhancement.

Salim delves into various health optimization techniques, from grounding and cold plunge therapy to leveraging cutting-edge technology and equipment in his biohacking adventures. He also touches upon his experiences with plant medicine, discussing the impacts of ayahuasca and ketamine therapies.

This episode not only charts Salim's professional shift but also offers insights into combining technology with natural health practices.

This week, Morgan chats with unfiltered one-of-a-kind Peloton Instructor Cody Rigsby. Cody has taken the fitness community by storm since first appearing on Peloton 8 years ago.

As a Peloton Instructor, Rigsby reminds everyone in his classes to push themselves, but have a good time doing it, because we all need to have a little more fun. He believes that life should be experienced authentically, and this is fully represented throughout his rides. His Peloton #BooCrew has over 120,000 devoted members pedaling to his every word. A #BooCrew favorite, Rigsby also hosts unique “XOXO” classes, in which Peloton riders submit questions about life, relationships, pop culture, etc. for Rigsby to advise on and share his candid opinions during his live rides.

Rigsby goes in depth with Morgan about moving to North Carolina as a child and how his passion for dancing ignited after taking a ballet class, moving to NYC, experiencing homelessness, and overcoming obstacles. He discusses his new relationship with food and body image and how he focuses on ways to move his body that mimics childhood, embracing the inner Primal "play" based behavior that our audience knows so well. He spills on his favorite Primal Kitchen Products, Dancing with The Stars, and detoxing from social media. Listen in to hear all the shared laughter and the "tea!"

Brian McAndrew, the man behind the scenes of all of Primal’s audio and video production efforts, takes the stage again as the honored guest on the keto-themed podcast. At the age of 31, Brian has had quite a healthy journey of vast exploration and deep immersion. He’s been hard-core keto for over two years, all the while pursuing ambitious goals in the weight room. Brian’s experiences include: dealing with a serious parasite infection contracted while swimming in an African pond (hey it’s hot in Sierra Leone for an Oregon coast boy!); plunging into the trendy LA juice bar health scene and digging a hole from veganism and chronic cardio; getting big into the familiar combo of Paleo and Crossfit; getting a burnt out on Crossfit and transitioning into a pattern of MAF pace cardio workouts along with high-intensity strength training.

Brian is constantly tweaking and testing on our behalf and today has a very groovy rhythm of simple, delicious meals, eating enough food to fuel his ambitious workouts, not stressing about testing his ketone numbers, and enjoying occasional departures from keto followed by effortless recalibrations. This is a very informative show where Brian shares insights from many resources; he processes and consumes a ton of podcasts and has 12,000 followers on his Instagram account (@WholeDoods) despite rarely writing anything more than, “I’m eating this” or showing pictures of his cute one-year-old daughter.

Brian’s meals on Instagram and Brad’s underground recipe videos have become so popular that the duo are working on a top-secret book for lazy doods who want to cook keto but can’t be bothered to follow complex recipes.
