This week we're talking to Big Thief guitarist Buck Meek who's fourth solo album, The Mirror, is out this week via 4AD. It was made with Big Thief drummer James Krivchenia in the producer's chair and together they envisioned a joyous rock record with an ambient sound design that really gives the album a unique sound.    Our discussion gets into the production of the album and how guitarist Adam Brisbin played a major role in the way it sounds, embracing hope in dark times, plus the many guests on The Mirror including Adrianne Lenker, Jolie Holland and more. We also talk about Buck's new band Kisser which is led by his partner, Germaine Dunes, his upcoming tour plans, five records he thinks everyone should own, a little food talk, and more.   -- Credits: Hosted & produced by Bill Pearis Mixed and mastered by Nick Gray Theme music by Michael Silverstein

This week we're talking to indiepop legends Amelia Fletcher and Rob Pursey whose bands include Talulah Gosh, Marine Research and Heavenly who this month will release their first album in over 30 years. It's titled Highway to Heavenly and is out via the Skep Wax, the label they run together.    Our hourlong conversation covers a lot of ground, including the new album, how TikTok turned their '90s song "P.U.N.K. Girl" into a 2020s viral hit, being part of the International Pop Underground, how Amelia's career as an economist came in handy for indie bands on streaming services, Heavenly's upcoming North American tour, their label Skep Wax, the dreaded "T" Word, and more.

This week we're talking to UK band Dry Cleaning who just released their excellent third album Secret Love via 4AD. We've got all four members with us: vocalist Florence Shaw, guitarist Tom Dowse, bassist Lewis Maynard, and drummer Nick Buxton. We talked about making the album with producer Cate Le Bon and recording at Wilco's Loft Studio in Chicago and at Black Box studios in France's Loire Valley.   Florence tells us about her decision to sing more on Secret Love, and other topics of discussion include: their upcoming North American tour that had to be rescheduled, the Grammy-winning but polarizing artwork for 2022's Stumpwork and the uncanny artwork of the new album, and their first visit to the US which happened days before covid lockdown in 2020. Plus: a surprising amount of talk about food, albums they think everyone should own, and things devolve into chaos when Lewis accidentally knocks his laptop off his coffee table. It's one of a few wild moments that make this episode extra fun. -- Credits: Hosted & produced by Bill Pearis Mixed and mastered by Nick Gray Theme music by Michael Silverstein

This week we're talking to Ryan and Gary Jarman, two thirds of long-running Wakefield, UK sibling trio The Cribs. They just released Selling a Vibe, their terrific ninth album and first in five years, which they made in Brooklyn with Patrick Wimberly of Chairlift as producer. It debuted at #5 on the UK album charts so congrats Cribs on that. We discussed the new album and how having a long pause between records actually made it better. We also talked about The Cribs recent US tour with The Rapture, some of their earliest New York shows, the CMJ festival, how both Ryan and Gary live in the US now -- New York and Portland respectively -- plus Johnny Marr, Janet Weiss, reality television and more. One note: due to some technical difficulties our conversation gets cut off a little early but there is still plenty to listen to. -- Credits: Hosted & produced by Bill Pearis Mixed and mastered by Nick Gray Theme music by Michael Silverstein

Most recruiters are stuck chasing clients, sending cold outreach, and grinding through business development just to stay afloat. In this episode of The Elite Recruiter Podcast, Benjamin Mena sits down with Pinnacle Society top biller Michael Silverstein to unpack why elite recruiters stop chasing deals and how they build inbound client demand through relationships, trust, and positioning. This conversation breaks down the mindset, strategy, and long-term business development approach that allows top recruiters to scale their desk, close more deals, and build a recruiting practice that compounds over time, without cold selling.

This week we're talking to Jason Williamson, head shouter for UK duo Sleaford Mods. The band just released their 13th album, The Demise of Planet X and we talk about making that one and the large cast of guests involved, including actress Gwendoline Christie, Adlous Harding and Life Without Buildings singer Sue Tompkins.  Other topics of discussion include the state of the world and its influence on the album, the Sex Pistols and The Specials, Jason's creative process with bandmate-slash-producer Andrew Fearn, his burgeoning acting career, five records he thinks everyone should own, and more. It's a fun, if expletive filled, conversation - but fans of Sleaford Mods should expect no less. -- Credits: Hosted & produced by Bill Pearis Mixed and mastered by Nick Gray Theme music by Michael Silverstein

This episode is a little different as we're talking to three of the people behind new film GAME. It's the first feature from Invada Films, the movie arm of Invada Records, the label co-founded by Geoff Barrow of Portishead and Beak>. Barrow has scored many films and TV  series over the last 15 years, including Ex Machina, Annihilation and more but this is his first foray as a producer and co-writer. Helping him out are two old friends and collaborators -- director John Minton who has done live visuals and videos for Portishead, and artist and actor Marc Bessant who did the album cover for the second Portishead album.  Both Marc and John also get story credit for GAME, which is a thriller set against the early '90s rave scene. Marc plays David an aging partier who crashes his car in rural England after a rave and is found by a poacher in the woods played with menace and humor by Sleaford Mods frontman Jason Williamson. Things do not go as you might expect and we'll leave it at that. We talked to Geoff, John and Marc about the film, the difficulties of making it with a very small budget, writing new '90s-sounding acid house songs for the soundtrack, and more. Plus Geoff talks about his final tour with Beak> which wrapped up earlier this year, what's next for Invada, the future of Portishead, and lots more. Just so you know, we keep the first half of our conversation spoiler free but at the 34 minute mark we do start talking about specifics of the film, so if you haven't seen GAME skip ahead to the 54:40 minute mark for talk of Portishead, Beak>, and more.   -- Credits: Hosted & produced by Bill Pearis Mixed and mastered by Nick Gray Theme music by Michael Silverstein

This week we're talking to Eric Pulido of Denton, TX baroque folk-rock greats Midlake who just released A Bridge To Far, their sixth album overall and second since coming back from a nearly 10-year hiatus. Our conversation happened back in September, and we talked about recording the album with producer Sam Evian and how that differed from working with John Congleton on 2022's For the Sake of Bethel Woods, and how this might be their Midlake-iest album yet.   Other topics of conversation include getting Ted Lasso actor James Lance to star in the video for "Days Gone By" which was shot in one take on the streets of New York's Lower East Side, other songs on the record, upcoming tour plans, the difficulties of covering The Beatles, five records he thinks everyone should own and more.   -- Credits: Hosted & produced by Bill Pearis Mixed and mastered by Nick Gray Theme music by Michael Silverstein

This week we welcome Tim Burgess of long-running Manchester band The Charlatans who just released their 14th album, We Are Love. We talk about working with producer Dev Hynes of Blood Orange on the album, and recording at famed Rockfield Studios in Wales for the first time since 1997's Tellin' Stories and the first time since original keyboardist Rob Collins died in a car crash during the making of the album. Other topics include the return of so many '90s bands this year, Tim's pandemic-era Twitter Listening Parties, DJing a David Lynch tribute, five records Tim thinks everyone should own, and more. -- Credits: Hosted & produced by Bill Pearis Mixed and mastered by Nick Gray Theme music by Michael Silverstein

This week we've got Stephen and David Dewaele of Belgian dance-rock greats Soulwax, not to mention 2ManyDJs, Despacio and DEEWEE Records fame. Soulwax just released All Systems Are Lying, their first album in seven years, and we talk about that and how it differed from the last two records. Our wide-ranging conversation also hit on their approach to remixes, interviewing Prince on Belgian television, what makes Belgian music sound Belgian, the mid-'80s Belgian New Beat scene, their mobile club Despacio with James Murphy, Soulwax's infamous 2006 gig at Brooklyn club Studio B, working with Marie Davidson on her album City of Clowns, what DEEWEE Records has coming out next, and lots more.  -- Credits: Hosted & produced by Bill Pearis Mixed and mastered by Nick Gray Theme music by Michael Silverstein

This week we've got Welsh indie rock legend and Super Furry Animals frontman, Gruff Rhys who just released his ninth solo album, Dim Probs, which is also his first for Mogwai's Rock Action label. We discussed the bleak themes of the album and the Welsh DIY music that inspired it, his recent US tour celebrating the 10th anniversary of his album American Interior, missing the Oasis reunion shows in Cardiff, that time Super Furry Animals toured with Oasis 20 years ago, raves in the Welsh countryside, working with illustrator Pete Fowler for Dim Probs and the merch opportunities with the album's artwork, plus five records he thinks everyone should own, and more.   It should be noted that this interview happened before Super Furry Animals announced they were reforming for shows in 2026 and you can hear Gruff successfully dodge the question of SFA's status. -- Credits: Hosted & produced by Bill Pearis Mixed and mastered by Nick Gray Theme music by Michael Silverstein

This week we've got Welsh iconoclast Cate Le Bon who just released the wonderful, if heartbreaking new album, Michelangelo Dying. We discussed how the album was not the record she intended or wanted to make; her creative partnership with producer and engineer Samur Khouja; working with musicians Dylan Hadley, Valentina Magliati, Stephen Black and Euan Hinshelwood on the album; her other career as a producer making records with Wilco, Dry Cleaning, Horsegirl and more; her 2026 tour plans; her new dog, and more. -- Credits: Hosted & produced by Bill Pearis Mixed and mastered by Nick Gray Theme music by Michael Silverstein

Comedian, actor and musician Fred Armisen has just released a new album: 100 Sound Effects and yes it's exactly that -- a old school sound effects album, but one only Fred Armisen could make. We talked to Fred about how he came to make it, how the late Steve Albini played a part in it, and the unexpected difficulties there were in creating his own sound effects. Along the way there are digressions into '80s "marimba wave" and Sophistipop, singing Foreigner in an episode of Wednesday, the show's upcoming Uncle Fester spinoff, five records Fred thinks everyone should own and more.   PS in the episode there is mention of making a "marimba wave" playlist and you can listen to that here.   -- Credits: Hosted & produced by Bill Pearis Mixed and mastered by Nick Gray Theme music by Michael Silverstein  

Swedish garage rock greats just released THE HIVES FOREVER FOREVER THE HIVES, their terrific seventh album which was co-produced by longtime collaborator Pelle Gunnerfeldt and The Beastie Boys' Mike D, with additional productions by Queens of the Stone Age's Josh Homme.

Baxter Dury (son of British icon Ian Dury) just released his eight solo album, Allbarone, which he made with producer Paul Epworth (Adele, Bloc Party). Together they take Baxter's signature style -- a London Serge Gainsbourg by way of post-punk and indie -- into what he calls “mature art school rave" that has more than a little French Touch disco in it. We talked to Baxter about the new album, working with Paul Epworth, his time as a film student at NYU in the '90s, why he's never played America and if that might change, and more. -- Credits: Hosted & produced by Bill Pearis Mixed and mastered by Nick Gray Theme music by Michael Silverstein  

UK group Suede (known to some in America as The London Suede) just released their 10th album, Antidepressants, which has them adding dark post-punk to their signature "beautiful trash" glammy sound. It's the latest release in of the best second acts in recent memory. We talked to bassist Mat Osman about Suede's longevity, the care they've put into every record, especially since reforming in 2010, the album's post-punk sound and his own goth roots. We also discuss Matt's second career as an author and his brother Richard who is behind the very popular The Thursday Murder Club book series. Plus: five records he thinks everyone should own, reunion records, the chances Suede might tour America again, and more.

After 35 years UK trio Saint Etienne have decided that their 13th album, International, will be their last. They've gone out with a bang, though, collaborating Confidence Man, The Chemical Brothers Tom Rowlands and Doves' Jez Williams, Haircut 100's Nick Heyward, Erasure's Vince Clark, and more on the album's songs. We talked with 2/3rds of the band, Pete Wiggs and Sarah Cracknell, on the decision to bring an end to Saint Etienne, the many great collaborators on International, what their kids listen to, touring America (including a memorable early gig at New York's infamous Limelight Club), having Oasis open for them in 1994, their 2026 farewell tour, and more.

Laurent Schroeder-Lebec and Trevor de Brauw of Chicago instrumental band Pelican join us on the latest episode of the BrooklynVegan podcast to discuss 10 (technically 11) albums that influenced their new album, 'Flickering Resonance,' which arrives May 16 via Run For Cover. It's Pelican's first album in six years, first with Laurent back in the band in 12 years, and first for Run For Cover, following releases on Hydra Head and Southern Lord. Though Pelican have long been grouped with metal, they came up in the musically-diverse Chicago DIY scene of the '90s, surrounded by punk, hardcore, emo, post-hardcore, and more, and the classic albums (as well as one much more recent pick) that inspired 'Flickering Resonance' reflect that. -- The BrooklynVegan Show is brought to you in part by DistroKid, a service for musicians that allows you to easily upload your music to all major streaming platforms.

2025 marks 25 years of Bayside and it also marks 20 years of their self-titled sophomore album, which vocalist/guitarist Anthony Raneri joined us on the BrooklynVegan podcast to discuss.   The album came at a pivotal moment for both the band and the 2000s emo boom that they were part of, and Anthony discusses all the factors that led to this album turning out the way it did, and the way it changed the band's career forever. He discusses the impact that being from the Long Island scene and being surrounded by the meteoric rises of bands like Fall Out Boy and My Chemical Romance had on this album, some of the big influences behind it, some of its more regrettable lyrics, and much more.   -- The BrooklynVegan Show is brought to you in part by DistroKid, a service for musicians that allows you to easily upload your music to all major streaming platforms.

Drastically changing up your style as a young, rising band is a risk, but Peripheral Vision teaches us that making a beloved record never really comes down to style as much as it comes down to great songwriting. Turnover went all in on their newfound love of dream pop/post-punk for Peripheral Vision, and they still had the driving backbone and the sappy sincerity of their emo/punk days that made the new album stand out as unique within all of those genres. It quickly became the band's breakthrough record, and it set the tone for the next decade of Turnover's career.   For its 10th anniversary, singer/guitarist Austin Getz joins us on the BrooklynVegan podcast to discuss the making of the album, influences behind it, where the band was at internally and where the scene they were part of was at during this period, and much more.   Turnover will also be performing Peripheral Vision in full on tour (with support from Citizen, Tigers Jaw, Balance & Composure, and others) and releasing an expanded 10th anniversary edition. There's an exclusive BrooklynVegan "candied avocado" vinyl variant, limited to 500 and up for pre-order in the BV shop:   https://shop.brooklynvegan.com/products/turnover-peripheral-vision-10th-anniversary-edition-lp-limited-edition-only-500-made-candied-avocado-vinyl   --   The BrooklynVegan Show is brought to you in part by DistroKid, a service for musicians that allows you to easily upload your music to all major streaming platforms.

It's been a pretty big year for The Offspring. It's the 40th anniversary of the band, the 30th anniversary of Smash, and they've got their new album Supercharged out now on Concord Records. They've also done some unlikely collaborations during their music festival appearances–Ed Sheeran joined them for “Million Miles Away,” Queen's Brian May joined them for an orchestral rock rendition of “Gone Away” and Queen's “Stone Cold Crazy,” and Offspring singer Dexter Holland joined The Beach Boys for “Wouldn't It Be Nice.” We caught up with Dexter and guitarist Noodles for a new episode of the BrooklynVegan Podcast to talk about all of those things, as well as their early days getting into the punk scene, how their perspective on punk and songwriting have evolved over the years, longevity in rock and punk, Dexter's years working with AFI through his label Nitro Records, music they've been listening to lately, and more. - The BrooklynVegan Show is brought to you in part by DistroKid, a service for musicians that allows you to easily upload your music to all major streaming platforms.

As Cursive gear up to release their new album Devourer, lead singer Tim Kasher joins us us on the BrooklynVegan Podcast. Throughout our hour-long conversation, Tim talks about classic Cursive records, the Omaha/Saddle Creek scene he came up in, his thoughts on being associated with emo (and covering At the Drive-In at Bonnaroo's Emo SuperJam), continuing to discover new music and art at middle age (he just turned 50 on August 19, happy belated!), the new album, and more. He unpacks some of the hopeless, apocalyptic, state-of-the-world themes on Devourer, talks about bringing cello back into the fold on the past few Cursive albums after abandoning it for many post-Ugly Organ years, and he talks about why Cursive were excited to team up with Run For Cover Records for this new album, following several albums for Saddle Creek and two on their own 15 Passenger label.   -   The BrooklynVegan Show is brought to you in part by DistroKid, a service for musicians that allows you to easily upload your music to all major streaming platforms.

The Get Up Kids‘ classic 1999 album Something To Write Home About turns 25 this year, and the band is celebrating with an expanded reissue and a tour, and for the occasion, co-leaders Matt Pryor and Jim Suptic joined us on the BrooklynVegan podcast for an hour-long reflection on the album. They reminisced about how they evolved from their very humble beginnings and their 1997 debut album Four Minute Mile into the band that wrote one of the most influential emo albums of all time just two years later, the label feeding frenzy that followed Four Minute Mile‘s success and the decision to go with then-little-known label Vagrant, the longer demoing process that helped make Something To Write Home About a much more refined album than its predecessor (and that's being immortalized with the second disc of demos included with this new reissue), their headlining STWHA tour with openers At the Drive-In, their 2001 support tours for Green Day and Weezer, the mainstream emo boom that Something To Write Home About heavily inspired and that The Get Up Kids moved away from with 2002's On A Wire, and more.   Pick up our exclusive "violet & silver mix" vinyl variant of the Something To Write Home About 25th anniversary edition in the online BrooklynVegan shop: https://shop.brooklynvegan.com/products/the-get-up-kids-something-to-write-home-about-25th-anniversary-2lp-limited-edition-only-500-made-violet-silver-mix-vinyl   - The BrooklynVegan Show is brought to you in part by DistroKid, a service for musicians that allows you to easily upload your music to all major streaming platforms.

They're gearing up to release Live From The Garden Amphitheater, a live album recorded at their 2023 20th anniversary shows with both lead vocalists (Anthony Green and Cove Reber) that includes a full performance of their debut EP Translating The Name, covers (of Sunny Day Real Estate, At the Drive-In, The Smashing Pumpkins, and Blindside), and more; they have a re-recorded “Saosin's Version” of their self-titled album on the way in order to give the album a long-awaited vinyl re-release (due to rights issues with Capitol Records); they're about to go on their first tour with Cove in 14 years; and they have new music in the works.

Minneapolis indie-punk band VIAL join us on the BrooklynVegan podcast in celebration of their excellent new album burnout, out 3/29 via Get Better Records. It's their third album, and in my opinion their best yet, with everything from punk ragers to brighter indie pop and a lyrical theme that tells the story of a person losing a relationship, with all the anger, sadness, guilt, and apathy (and humor!) that comes with that. Guitarist and co-lead vocalist KT Branscom and drummer Katie Fischer join us on the show to talk about coming up in the Minneapolis DIY scene, blowing up during lockdown thanks to the power of social media, and returning as a full-time touring band once live music started happening again. We also discuss some of the themes and influences behind the new album, the Nirvana song VIAL cover at every show, making a ska version of one of their songs with JER, and much more.   VIAL also appear in the first issue of the new (free!)

Norman Brannon of Texas Is The Reason, New End Original, Shelter, and more (and currently touring guitarist for Thursday) recently relanched his legendary '90s hardcore fanzine Anti-Matter as a Substack, and we invited him on the BrooklynVegan podcast to talk more about the relaunch, and why it made sense to bring it back today. The conversation took all kinds of interesting twists and turns, and I think if you're into any type of hardcore then and/or now, it's very worth listening to what Norman had to say.   -- The BrooklynVegan Show is brought to you in part by DistroKid, a service for musicians that allows you to easily upload your music to all major streaming platforms.

The latest episode of the BrooklynVegan Podcast is an interview with Florida emo/math rock band Pool Kids. We caught up with the band in the midst of their headlining tour in continued support of their breakthrough 2022 self-titled sophomore LP, which just celebrated its one-year anniversary this month, and also surrounding the release of their new split EP with their hardcore alter-egos POOL. We called them up while they were in the van and running late to their San Francisco show, so we had to weather a few minor technical difficulties caused by cell phone service, but we ended up having a great chat during which the band reflected on their breakout year, discussed the new EP, dove into their 2017 formation and backstory, and much more.   -- The BrooklynVegan podcast is brought to you in part by DistroKid, a service for musicians that allows you to easily upload your music to all major streaming platforms, including Spotify, Apple Music, and more.

The latest guest on the BrooklynVegan podcast is writer and author Chris Payne in celebration of his new book Where Are Your Boys Tonight?: The Oral History of Emo's Mainstream Explosion, 1999-2008, out now on Dey Street Books. We talked about how growing up in NJ during the 2000s emo boom and pursuing a career in music journalism, including a seven-year stint as a staff writer at Billboard, pushed Chris towards writing this book, and we also dove into some key moments of his book and just chatted a lot about 2000s emo. If you're into emo at all, I highly recommend reading Chris' book, which ranges from in-depth reflections on crucial underground moments like the last Silent Majority show before their breakup to a detailed look at the height of the Fall Out Boy / My Chemical Romance craze.

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Chef Michael Silverstein. Michael was just recently crowned Runner-up on the All-star season of MasterChef with Gordon Ramsay! After beating out tens of thousands of competitors on Season 10 of MasterChef on FOX, he returned to battle on MasterChef Season 12, proving once again that he is one of the best cooks in America!  Michael's bestselling cookbooks, “New Keto Cooking” & “New Comfort Cooking”, along with his upcoming third book, “New Keto: Dinner in 30!”, have been endorsed by Michelin-star celebrity chefs Gordon Ramsay, Graham Elliot, and Aaron Sanchez. Michael has been featured in PEOPLE Magazine, E! News, Hallmark Channel, NPR, Good Morning America, New York Post, National Examiner, Closer Weekly, Allrecipes, Delish, Medium, FeedFeed, FoodBeast, Newsweek, Diply, Mashed, and more! As a three-time bestselling cookbook author, social media star, and TV personality, Michael is passionate about the power of cooking to improve one's life. After losing more than 80 pounds in one year on the Ketogenic diet, Michael enthusiastically believes that health starts in the kitchen. And hopes to continue helping others make incredible food at home while finding joy and empowerment through their cooking. His recipes prove that eating better does not mean giving up your favorite foods. Michael's recipes are healthy, bold, and delicious - nothing like the “diet” food you may be used to. In this episode, Michael speaks about the importance of self-love in personal and professional success. Michael dives into his health transformation and all the physical, emotional, and mental benefits he felt after trying a ketogenic lifestyle. Plus, he explains how to listen to your body and give it what it needs. Tune in as we chat all about easy keto recipes, finding a variety in your cooking, and how a ketogenic diet can vastly improve your mental well-being.  New Keto: Dinner in 30: Super Easy and Affordable Recipes for a Healthier Lifestyle: https://www.amazon.com/New-Keto-Affordable-Healthier-Lifestyle/dp/1645679004/benazadi-20 Message me on Instagram www.instagram.com/thebenazadi with the word ENERGY to learn more about coaching from me. / / E P I S O D E   S P ON S O R S  Paleo Valley beef sticks, apple cider vinegar complex, organ meat complex & more.

[06:05] Why Self-Love Is The Key To Personal and Professional Success  Before his health transformation, Michael never wanted to look in the mirror; he wanted to be invisible in a room.  Michael found empowerment because losing weight unlocked strength and confidence inside of him. Michael has a newfound passion for honoring himself and being his best version. Finding love for yourself can play into your personal and professional life. [19:05] How a Keto Lifestyle Played a Role In Michael's Health Transformation Michael wanted to find an approach to diet that still allowed him to love food. After learning about keto, Michael realized he could still have steak and butter. Michael started a keto diet by completely doubting himself. He didn't even tell his fiancé that he was cutting out carbs.  Michael didn't want the shame of failing when trying the keto diet.  Keto allowed Michael to feel empowerment, energy, strength, and health. Ten years of acid reflux were gone in two or three weeks of the keto diet. Michael's body was telling him that keto was working within days.  [25:15] How To Listen To What Your Body Is Telling You It took Michael thirty years to realize how much your body will talk to you.  Michael lost 80 pounds in one year because he was really focused.  On a weight loss journey, you become aware of how much your body communicates with you and how you feel.  Before getting healthy, Michael never listened to what his body told him. Michael lost weight without even walking into a gym.  [30:25] Finding A Variety and Diversity With a Ketogenic Lifestyle Diversity and a variety of food are essential to keep it exciting. Some people thrive on not having to think about what they eat daily. Michael loves to explore the world of food that is out there.  Part of Michael's personal journey was finding ways to make keto food sexy enough for him to want it every night.  [39:40] Food Determines Your Mood: Health Starts and Ends In The Kitchen  Your stomach is your second brain; the gut microbiome sends signals that affect every part of our body's systems mentally, physically, psychologically, and emotionally. It's challenging to tell if your mood is better because of the food or if it is better because you decided to change your life. Michael says keto changed his mood right away.  Health starts and ends in the kitchen; there is serious power in the food you eat.  [44:00] Fitting The Keto Diet Into Your Lifestyle Is Quick and Simple  Michael likes to teach people with his cooking books.  Finding good recipes will help you enjoy cooking more.  Michael's keto recipes are 30 minutes or less. They are all delicious and easy! You need to find food that you enjoy cooking.  Get the book New Keto: Dinner in 30: Super Easy and Affordable Recipes for a Healthier Lifestyle: https://www.amazon.com/New-Keto-Affordable-Healthier-Lifestyle/dp/1645679004/benazadi-20.

However, diagnosis and treatment of the two disorders should be clearly delineated. Talking with Dr. Michael Silverstein, Dr. Nathan Fox facilitates a discussion on what separates these disorders and how women can know if they should ask their gynecologist about it.
