Hosted by Kevin Gillespie · health · EN · 15 episodes
No fluff. No filters. No fads. Each episode, we take one big health trend, from gut health to cold plunges to miracle supplements, and roast it . We dig into what’s real, what’s rubbish, and what’s actually worth your time (and money). If it’s good, we’ll tell you the best way to take it . If it’s nonsense, we’ll call it out faster than you can say “influencer discount code.” Hosted by Kombucha Kev and a rotating panel of experts, athletes, and straight-talkers who aren’t afraid to call out the BS. Expect laughs, evidence, and a few uncomfortable truths. If Joe Rogan met Have I Got News For You in a kombucha bar, this would be it.
