In this episode of the Creator Method Podcast, Gary sits down with Val Goldberg, a registered dietitian, founder, and CEO who has transformed her expertise into a nationally recognized healthcare brand. Val is the founder of No Diet Dietitian, a clinic with over 50 registered dieticians serving thousands of clients across the U.S. through tele-health and in-person counseling. Built on the powerful message of no guilt, no shame, no diets, her practice is changing how people approach nutrition through sustainable, science-backed strategies that actually work. Val opens up about her personal journey from struggling with weight and disordered eating to finding her calling in nutrition, working in hospitals, and eventually launching her own practice. She shares the pivotal “squirrel story” moment that shifted how she approached patients, the leap from clinician to entrepreneur, and the mindset that allowed her to lead a fast-growing organization. She also reveals why she decided to embrace content creation as a CEO, the impact it's already having on her business, and why she believes every founder needs to build a personal brand. From reaction content to evidence-based education, Val is redefining how health professionals use content to educate, inspire, and scale their impact. This conversation is a masterclass in combining professional expertise with modern media to build trust, scale a mission, and become a voice of reason in a noisy online space.

Ignorance in Democracy: Unraveling Myths About Immigration and Rights in AmericaKey TakeawaysMisconceptions about immigration laws and processes are rampant, even among those who argue passionately about them.Understanding one's rights and the limits of government vs. private regulation is crucial in navigating legal and social landscapes.Foreign aid and domestic priorities often clash, revealing deeper issues about governmental focus and resource allocation.Debunking Immigration Myths: What You Really Need to KnowImmigration remains a hot-button issue in the United States, with widespread myths fueling misunderstandings. This topic was a focal point of Mike and Torya's unabashed discussion in the transcript. They dive into the murky waters of immigration myths, especially common misconceptions about asylum seekers and the legal processes surrounding them. Highlighted in their conversation is the nuanced process of seeking asylum. Mike articulates, "A lot of people say that person is here legally because they asked for asylum… Not how it works." This statement underscores a prevalent misunderstanding: that just because someone asks for asylum, it doesn't grant them legal status. The process is rigorous and must adhere to international law, which stipulates specific conditions for lawful asylum claims that many overlook. Similarly, marriage to a U.S. citizen is perceived as a passport to instant citizenship, a belief Torya dismantles forcefully. "Marriage to a U.S. citizen, guys, sorry to tell you, it does not automatically make you a citizen," she clarifies. The reality is much more complicated, involving background checks, interviews, and often long waiting times. This myth illustrates a broader lack of understanding that even lawful paths to residency require navigation through complex bureaucracies.Understanding Your Rights: From Sovereign Citizens to MirandaThe dialogue shifts fluidly from immigration misunderstandings to the public's misconceptions about their rights and legal privileges. Mike and Torya humorously tackle the bizarre beliefs held by "sovereign citizens," individuals who contest governmental authority over them. Mike laughs off their claims, "Driving a motor vehicle on public roads is a regulated privilege that requires a license, registration, insurance, and adherence to state laws." This issue reflects a fundamental public misunderstanding between rights—the freedoms protected from government intrusion—and privileges, which are subject to regulation. Many of these misunderstandings can lead to legal troubles, as humorously noted in their observations of those who think they can traverse highways without adhering to established laws. Linked closely is the public misconception surrounding the necessity of Miranda rights. Mike lampoons those who panic if they're not read their rights during arrest, explaining, "They don't have to read you your rights until they plan on asking you questions." Here, he educates listeners on when law enforcement is obligated to issue a Miranda warning, emphasizing that immediate recitation is unnecessary unless questioning occurs.Rethinking Foreign Aid: Prioritizing Domestic ConcernsDiscussion transitions to the contentious topic of foreign aid versus addressing domestic issues. Here, the speakers probe the rationale behind investing U.S. resources abroad when internal issues like homelessness remain unresolved. "I'm sorry, no foreign country has a right to American money," Mike asserts, echoing a sentiment many share—that domestic needs should take precedence in government budgeting. The sentiment is not a blanket repudiation of foreign aid but a call for introspection on national priorities. Torya points to the stark reality: "They could build housing for all of California's homeless people from the money that they sent to Ukraine last year." This statement is a poignant reminder of the trade-offs involved in allocating governmental resources and the potential opportunities lost domestically when funds are diverted elsewhere.Reflect & Reevaluate: Bridging the Gap Between Belief and KnowledgeFrom start to finish, the transcript reveals a tapestry of misconceptions deeply ingrained in how many perceive immigration, rights, and national priorities. Mike sums up an underlying truth: "Ignorance, it isn't patriotic. It's pathetic." Grasping the subtleties of immigration law, accurately knowing one's rights, and understanding government spending priorities are crucial. Such knowledge empowers individuals not only to partake in informed discussions but also to make tangible societal contributions. Future dialogue should continually strive to separate fact from fiction, ensuring clarity prevails over confusion. As Torya cheekily suggests in the transcript, everyone "should go and take the citizenship test of the country that they live in and see if they pass." By fostering informed citizenship, society can advocate effectively for meaningful change and prioritize issues that truly matter. TimestampSummary0:01Debunking Immigration Myths and Misunderstandings in America5:03Misconceptions About Legal Rights and Sovereign Citizens7:59Challenges of Moderating and Understanding Social Media Policies11:44Debate Over Foreign Aid Versus Domestic Homelessness Solutions13:25Understanding Citizenship and Patriotism in Modern Society

Numerous political figures including Ministers Shane Jones and David Seymour have spoken out in the media this week with allegations that Auckland Council is trying to usher in ‘co-governance' on a local level, with their proposal on the management of the Waitākere Ranges. CEO of Te Kawerau ā Maki Edward Ashby called out the political lashback as “fear-mongering” and ‘misinformation', affirming that the proposal is not actually a co-governance structure.  The proposal is for a decision-making committee of 50% representation from the Crown and tangata whenua to manage the land under a deed of acknowledgement. The council says the deed of acknowledgement is in line with the Waitākere Ranges Heritage Act 2008, and follows on from the existing management structures in place.  Producer Sara spoke with Councillor Shane Henderson during his bus commute about this topic and the political commentary that's been witnessed this week.

What drives nutrition experts up the wall? In this candid, unfiltered conversation with EvidenceNutrition (Edin), Liam, and Rob dive deep into the most frustrating myths and misconceptions plaguing the nutrition space today.The gloves come off as they tackle head-on the absurdity of claims like "pomegranates make your breasts perkier" while breaking down why study methodology matters and why some claims are too ridiculous to even warrant scientific investigation. Through equal parts exasperation and humor, they expose the tactics used by content creators who prioritize engagement over accuracy.From the demonization of carbohydrates—"the primary energy source of the body"—to unfounded fears about seed oils and diet sodas, the conversation reveals how nuanced nutritional science gets flattened into misleading black-and-white narratives on social media. For Edin, who lives with Type 1 diabetes, these mischaracterizations aren't just annoying—they can be potentially dangerous.The episode takes a fascinating turn when the three break down the exact formula for creating viral fear-mongering content: take a beloved product, claim it contains something "banned in Europe," create a shocking visual, and watch the views roll in regardless of accuracy. This insider perspective helps listeners develop a critical eye for the content they consume.Perhaps most revealing is their discussion about creator integrity and brand deals, where they share stories about declining lucrative offers from companies whose products they couldn't honestly endorse. It's a rare glimpse into the ethical challenges nutrition content creators face in an industry where financial incentives can sometimes encourage compromise.Want to cut through the noise and understand which nutrition claims deserve your attention?

Jeff apologizes for buying into the Mainstream Media's Measles Hype!

With all the hysteria and fearmongering about measles that's sweeping mainstream media headlines of late, one might assume that children everywhere are dropping dead from this chickenpox like viral infection. But according to official data from U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Quasi Prevention (CDQP) only two people has died from measles in more than 15 years. However, at least 100 people have died during the same period because of getting the MMR vaccines for measles, mumps, and rubella, which is supposed to protect against measles. Special Guest – Larry Logsdon ‘How cholesterol lower drugs may sabotage having a healthy blood sugar range'

www.colossusfitness.comSummary of episode:Listed points:1 (01:00) - Carbs are bad for you. Fat makes you fat. Sodium is bad. Sugar is bad. (FEAR MONGERING)-if we listen to what people say is bad, we would be eating literally nothing2 (02:09) - You should only eat 100% clean3 (05:13) - Fasting boosts metabolism & is the #1 fat loss tool.-Fasting reduces energy expenditure in the short term.-Fasting can be a useful tool to control energy intake but it isn't magic.4 (06:52) - You can't lose weight because of starvation mode.-Starvation mode is claimed to occur when a prolonged calorie deficit slows down and halts a person's metabolism, making further weight loss impossible & can even cause weight gain. -This is FALSE. A calorie deficit will always result in weight loss over time.-The law of thermodynamics applies to everyone. Cals in cals out is legit.5 (06:14) - High-protein diets damage kidneys.For people with pre-existing kidney conditions, high protein intake may worsen kidney function6 (08:08) - Eating before bed causes weight gain7 (09:56) - All calories are the same.Reality: Not all calories have the same effect on the body. The source of calories matters significantly. For example, 100 calories from a sugary soda will affect your blood sugar and insulin levels differently than 100 calories from a portion of vegetables or lean protein. Nutrient-dense foods tend to be more filling and provide essential nutrients, while empty-calorie foods (like sweets and junk food) can lead to overconsumption without providing much nutritional value.-The time of day you eat doesn't directly affect weight gain. What matters more is your overall calorie intake, nutrient quality, and portion control.Thanks for listening!

In this RECAPS episode, Tim and April discuss various topics, including parenting, gun control, and a lawsuit challenging the Johnson Amendment. They express frustration with the lack of action on gun control and the hypocrisy of some evangelical Christians who advocate for pro-life policies but resist common-sense gun regulations. They also highlight the lawsuit filed by the National Religious Broadcasters and two Baptist churches against the IRS, seeking the ability to endorse political candidates without risking their tax-exempt status. The hosts emphasize the importance of maintaining the separation of church and state and the need for responsible gun ownership. In this part of the conversation, Tim and April discuss two separate topics. First, they talk about James and Bridget Morris, who are starting a new church after James resigned from Gateway Church. They discuss the allegations against James' father, Robert Morris, and the questionable actions of the church. They find her website and discuss the extravagant offerings she provides. Finally, they briefly mention a video they found called the 'Bible Band' and JD Vance's comments on childcare. In this final part of the conversation, Tim and April discuss the fear-mongering and persecution complex within certain segments of Christianity.

Air Date 8/27/2024 People feel lots of ways about immigration. Sometimes it's fear of the other, other times it's not about the people but just dismay over a broken system. The validity of these concerns and others certainly exist on a spectrum, some are utter bullshit and others aren't. Left-wing political parties tend to do a terrible job creating immigration policy - in that they just don't do it at all - while the right wing is all too happy to create and implement terrible policy. And given a choice between action and inaction, regardless of how misguided the proposed action is, people with concerns will choose action. Be part of the show!

As Kamala Harris is the new Democratic nominee, she is bringing in changes. Shifting the emphasis of the campaign away from danger and onto the opportunities that lay before Americans, a new enthusiasm is cascading across the country. Manipulative Republicans have worn out their ability to frighten Americans, while Harris and Walz are embracing inspiration to rally voters.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (06/25/2024): 3:05pm- During yesterday's show, Director of Strategic Communications at the Republican National Committee Tommy Pigott highlighted the difference between Donald Trump's weekend appearance in Philadelphia and Joe Biden's recent trip to the city—Trump left a $500 tip at Tony & Nick's Steaks, while Joe Biden got confused in a Wawa. Pigott explained: “If the Biden campaign actually wanted to put these concerns about Joe Biden to bed, they would put him out there more in unscripted environments—but they don't…Joe Biden cannot do anything without being perpetually confused.” Will Biden be able to hold it together for 90-minutes during Thursday's debate? 3:20pm- Media Attacks Judge Aileen Cannon: In his latest opinion piece for The Wall Street Journal, William McGurn writes of the “vilification of Judge Cannon” by The New York Times's news division: “It's similar to the statement by 51 former intelligence operatives two weeks before the 2020 election that Hunter Biden's laptop “has all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation.” Their statement was sprinkled with caveats that didn't matter because its only job was to give Joe Biden something to get him through the last crucial days of the election.” You can read the full editorial here: https://www.wsj.com/articles/taking-down-judge-aileen-cannon-1c4bf9ab?mod=opinion_lead_pos9 3:35pm- During MSNBC's Morning Joe, host Joe Scarborough attacked the credibility of Judge Aileen Cannon—the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida judge who is overseeing Donald Trump's alleged mishandling of classified documents case. Similarly, while appearing on CNN, former White House Ethics Czar Norm Eisen questioned Judge Cannon's motives—suggesting she is simply doing the bidding of Donald Trump. Rich explains that the media is making a coordinated effort to delegitimize Judge Cannon. 3:45pm- Will Donald Trump be able to attend the Republican National Convention? On July 11th, Trump has his sentencing hearing for his conviction in the “hush money” trial involving payments to adult film star Stormy Daniels. Rich notes that Trump could—unjustly—be sentenced to house arrest or even prison time. The RNC convention begins on July 15th and ends on July 18th. 4:05pm- While appearing on CNN, National Press Secretary for the 2024 Trump Campaign Karoline Leavitt had her interview cut short by anchor Kasie Hunt. Hunt accused Leavitt of attacking her CNN colleagues Jake Tapper and Dana Bash by suggesting the two moderators of Thursday's debate have regularly expressed disdain for Donald Trump and support for Joe Biden. A montage pieced together by Newsbusters proves Leavitt's point—Tapper and Bash are not objective. One clip even shows Tapper referring to Trump's presidency as a “national nightmare.” 4:10pm- Nicholas Fondacaro of Newsbusters reports: “CNN could be facing a defamation liability rivaling or exceeding the $787 million Fox News paid out to Dominion Voting Systems. NewsBusters recently reported on Florida's First District Court of Appeals affirming that plaintiff Zachary Young could seek punitive damages, in addition to economic and emotional damages, from the Cable News Network in a civil trial after they allegedly defamed him regarding his work in getting people out of Afghanistan.” He continues: “The case hinges on CNN's use of the phrases ‘black market' and ‘exploited' to describe Young's legitimate business helping corporately sponsored Afghans escape the country as it collapsed around them and the Taliban retook control.” Fondacaro writes that Young ultimately saved 24 people.

Yes, it's a real thing—and it's coming to New York as part of an effort to support body positivity. 4:40pm- MSNBC's Andrea Mitchell hilariously asked Biden Campaign spokesperson Adrienne Elrod whether it is a problem that all of President Joe Biden's debate advisers are “white men in their 60s.” 4:45pm- Could Black voters in Milwaukee determine the 2024 presidential election? Brakkton Booker of Politico writes: “Polls suggest the president is trailing his 2020 performance in [Milwaukee] and surrounding county. In Wisconsin's April Democratic primary, his performance within the city limits lagged well behind the rest of the state. There's one big reason why: Black voters in Milwaukee. An influential bloc that can determine if the state remains blue or flips this fall, these voters have serious and lingering doubts about Biden and whether he's delivered on his promises to them. There's no danger that Donald Trump will carry this historically Democratic city in November. But there is a considerable risk that an anemic showing in Milwaukee could cost Biden this critical swing state—and possibly the election.” You can read the full article here: https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2024/06/21/biden-black-voters-enthusiasm-gap-milwaukee-00163496 4:50pm- Zeoli Show History: For the first time ever, Rich compliments Matt's return music selection. 5:05pm- Could Black voters in Milwaukee determine the 2024 presidential election? Brakkton Booker of Politico writes: “Polls suggest the president is trailing his 2020 performance in [Milwaukee] and surrounding county.

For example, Democrat political strategist James Comer recently claimed that if Donald Trump wins, he will establish a “theocracy.” Meanwhile, Associate Editor of The Washington Post Ruth Marcus is predicting that the Supreme Court may “chip away at the right to same-sex marriage.” 5:25pm- Hillary Clinton is BACK! with a new book due to be released just weeks before the presidential election: "Something Lost, Something Gained: Reflections on Life, Love, and Liberty.” 5:40pm- BREAKING NEWS: A House Judiciary Committee investigation has found evidence suggesting “CIA contractors colluded with the Biden Campaign to discredit [the] Hunter Biden laptop story” ahead of the 2020 presidential election. You can read more details here: https://judiciary.house.gov/media/press-releases/new-information-shows-cia-contractors-colluded-biden-campaign-discredit-hunter 6:05pm- Rich has to leave early to host 1210 WPHT's Politics and Pints with New York Times best-selling author Jack Carr from Zlock Performing Arts Center Bucks County Community College in Newtown, Pennsylvania. America's Radio Guest Host Mike Opelka closes out the show! 6:15pm- Hillary Clinton is BACK! with a new book due to be released just weeks before the presidential election: "Something Lost, Something Gained: Reflections on Life, Love, and Liberty.” 6:30pm- Earlier this month, Attorney General Merrick Garland testified before the House Judiciary Committee. During one notable exchange, Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) asked who—or what— gave Garland the authority to appoint special counsel Jack Smith? Judge Aileen Cannon—the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida judge handling Donald Trump's alleged mishandling of classified documents case—is considering whether Smith's appointment is legally invalid. 6:50pm- Over the weekend, Congressman Jamaal Bowman—perhaps best known for pulling a fire alarm in a Congressional office building—held a profanity laced rally in the Bronx. During the event, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio made sure she embarrassed herself as well by screaming and dancing on stage like a lunatic. Rep. Bowman may very well lose his primary battle to George Latimer later tonight.
