The MAHA Debate: Dr. Will Cole and Dr. Jessica Knurick on Public Health Mar 10, 2026

Show notes

In this episode of the Commune Podcast, Jeff Krasno moderates a spirited and thoughtful debate recorded live at the Eudemonia Summit in West Palm Beach.
Joining him are two returning guests who approach the future of public health from very different perspectives.
Dr. Will Cole is a functional medicine practitioner, bestselling author, and a prominent voice associated with the MAHA movement. Dr. Jessica Knurick holds a PhD in nutrition and has spent years working in public health, becoming one of the most articulate critics of that same movement.
Together, they unpack the growing debate around MAHA and what it means for the future of nutrition, functional medicine, and public health.
In this conversation, they explore:

What the MAHA movement actually represents
Where functional medicine and public health diverge
The role of evidence, consensus, and scientific disagreement
Nutrition misinformation in the digital age
Why constructive disagreement matters now more than ever

The discussion is direct and occasionally spicy, yet deeply respectful. It closes with something rare in today’s polarized climate: mutual understanding.

How Big Tobacco Built the Food Industry with David Chiu Feb 26, 2026

Show notes

In this episode, Jeff sits down with San Francisco City Attorney, David Chiu, to discuss his first-in-the-nation lawsuit against major ultra-processed food manufacturers. Drawing parallels to Big Tobacco litigation, David explains how companies like Coca-Cola, PepsiCo, and Kraft Heinz have used addiction science and deceptive marketing – often targeting children and low-income communities – to maximize profits while leaving taxpayers to cover the healthcare costs.

They explore the tobacco industry's direct involvement in building the processed food industry, the 1999 executive meeting that predicted devastating health consequences, and why this lawsuit could reshape how we think about America's food system.

This episode provides the background information you need to know, including how this chemical works, what it does to soil health and the gut microbiome, and its contested link to non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
Jeff also unpacks the current legal and political landscape: the Supreme Court case that could shield Bayer-Monsanto from future cancer lawsuits, the Trump administration's executive action expanding agricultural chemical use, and what a real transition away from chemical-dependent farming might actually require.

Activating Your Body's Natural Renewal System with Christian Drapeau Feb 19, 2026

Show notes

Regenerative medicine is shifting the paradigm from treating symptoms to actually curing the body through cellular repair. In this episode, stem cell scientist and neurophysiologist Christian Drapeau reveals how your body’s own stem cells hold the key to longevity, healing chronic pain, and reversing aging.
While most people associate stem cells with controversial embryonic research or expensive injections, Christian explains that your body naturally produces them—you just need to know how to activate them. He breaks down the science of endogenous stem cell mobilization, explaining how specific lifestyle choices and plant compounds can release your own repair cells from your bone marrow into your bloodstream.

This episode covers:

The Aging Equation: Why aging is simply a balance between cellular loss and cellular replacement
Natural Mobilization: How to boost stem cells without injections using fasting and plant-based polyphenols
Stem Cell Killers: How chronic stress and cortisol suppress your body's ability to repair itself
The Truth About Injections: The difference between umbilical cord stem cells and your own biological repair system
Regenerative Science: Understanding the shift from palliative care to curative medicine

This podcast is for biohackers, chronic pain sufferers, and anyone interested in the frontiers of longevity science who wants to understand how to heal their body from the inside out.

How Music Makes Us All Feel the Same Feb 17, 2026

Show notes

What is music actually doing inside of us?

In this solo reflection, Jeff Krasno explores the science and soul of how music shapes the human brain, regulates emotion, and connects us across distance and even across difference.

Drawing from neuroscience research, Jeff explains how music can synchronize multiple brains at once, aligning nervous systems during shared emotional moments. EEG studies show that powerful passages in music can create real neural convergence, offering a sense of unity beneath belief and identity.

He also explores why we are drawn to sad music. Melancholic songs help regulate emotion, releasing soothing and connective chemicals in the brain that allow us to process grief, longing, and distance while feeling less alone.
Through stories of live music, memory, and fatherhood, this episode reveals how music:

Synchronizes brains and nervous systems
Supports emotional processing and regulation
Collapses distance through memory and attachment
Helps transform sadness into meaning
Reminds us of our shared human wiring

Music does not ask what we believe. It moves us anyway.

Love as a Practice: Yung Pueblo & Jillian Turecki on Relationships Feb 12, 2026

Show notes

Lasting love isn’t something you find; it is a skill you must practice. In this episode, Jeff Krasno speaks with two leading relationship experts, Yung Pueblo (Diego Perez) and Jillian Turecki, to explore how to build healthy relationships through emotional responsibility, conscious communication, and self-awareness.

While society focuses on the romance of falling in love, very little guidance exists on what it takes to sustain connection over time. This episode dismantles the myth of the “perfect partner” and provides actionable tools to navigate the inevitable challenges of long-term commitment, from boredom to conflict.

This episode covers:

The three anchors for loving better: Kindness, Compassion, and Growth
Emotional Responsibility: How to communicate feelings without blaming your partner
The “Comfort Trap”: Balancing stability with novelty to keep the spark alive
Healing the Past: Why your relationship with yourself dictates your romantic success
Conflict Resolution: Moving from “fighting to win” to listening to understand

Love as a Verb: Practical rituals to show up for your partner even when you don’t feel like it

This podcast is for couples feeling stuck in a rut, singles looking to break old patterns, and anyone ready to approach love with greater mindfulness and maturity.

New episodes weekly. Listen, learn, and grow together.

Desire, Redefined [Luminescence Podcast] Feb 10, 2026

Show notes

So many of us feel anxious or disconnected from our bodies because we don't understand why our sexual desire fluctuates. This episode breaks down the hormonal dance that drives (and sometimes derails) your sex drive, explaining what happens to your metabolism, mood, and libido through midlife.

We get crystal clear on desire vs arousal vs orgasm, why estrogen is a major driver of fantasy and craving, and why progesterone can make you drier, slower to warm up, and harder to orgasm (you’re not broken, you’re hormonally alive). Then we zoom out to the midlife reality: metabolism shifts, insulin resistance, body changes, stress, sleep… and the underrated longevity superpower that changes everything: connection and community.

What you’ll learn:

Responsive vs spontaneous desire (both normal)
Why ovulation can feel like “sex brain”
Why the luteal phase can mean dryness + more foreplay
What shifts in perimenopause (metabolism, muscle, belly fat)
Simple blood sugar levers: protein, fiber, walking, sleep
Why body image and stress can tank libido
Why connection might matter more than any supplement

If you’ve ever wondered, “Is something wrong with me?”, this episode is your permission slip: your libido isn’t a personality flaw. It’s biology + life.

Featured Guests:

Dr. Jolene Brighten – Naturopathic endocrinologist, author of Is This Normal? and Beyond the Pill

Dr. Mariza Snyder – Functional wellness expert, author of The Perimenopause Revolution

Rosie Acosta – Host of Radically Loved, yoga and meditation teacher
