A lot has happened since then, and this conversation is the update I've been waiting to have. She comes with a report card - wins, losses, and a grade she's willing to give it. There are things she's genuinely proud of. There are things that have made her furious enough to give speeches at major conferences, and create petitions to fire federal officials. She's a lifelong conservative who wants people to vote red - and who also has no problem naming names when the people in power aren't holding up their end of the bargain. That tension is what makes this conversation worth listening to. She also talks about Charlie Kirk. Not in summary - in detail. Where she was when she found out. What she saw. What she thought in the moments after. And what she's done since, including the fight she promised him she'd finish. That section of this conversation I'll leave to her. A few of my favorite things we cover in this episode:MAHA report cardThe White House MAHA commission visit: Dr. Oz, Bobby Kennedy, Dr. Makary, Paul Saladino, Vani Hari, Mark Hyman, and Gary Brecka in a room together in the rainBiggest MAHA win: the dietary guidelines flipped upside down — trickle effects on hospitals, schools, the military, and pediatrician adviceMilitary food crisis: men and women leaving bases to eat McDonald's because the food served had mold in it — confirmed directly by Secretary KennedyHospital food reform: Trump admin threatening to pull Medicare/Medicaid funding from hospitals that don't clean up their foodOther wins: Hep B removed from day-one birth vaccine schedule, Operation Stork Speed targeting baby formula, food dyes, and the SNAP soda conversation at the state levelThe GRAS loophole: companies can currently declare their own ingredients safe with zero oversight — closing it would be the most consequential food safety change in decadesAlex's America Fest speech calling out pesticide liability shields — the White House called within minutes to demand an apologyThe Lee Zeldin petition: why a MAHA activist calling for the EPA director to be fired made headlinesGlyphosate two-faced: Bayer makes a different, safer Roundup formula for the EU and sells a worse version to Americans — the same pattern as Froot Loops with Kellogg'sThe cotton EO exposed: announced as a MAHA win for natural fabrics — but it was conventional (not organic) cotton, a secret handshake with Bayer to ramp up glyphosate useThe day Charlie Kirk was murdered: Alex walking out the door for her podcast anniversary dinner, the text from the cameraman, watching the videos refresh on X2027 MAHA zeitgeist prediction: chemicals in clothing — PFAS, microplastics, lead, BPA in baby socks — the US hasn't updated clothing chemical laws since the 1940sAlex's engagement to Vance — one of 10 homeschooled kids, more MAHA than she isLunin Water: glass-bottled, BPA-tested, heavy metal-tested — the cleanest bottled water brand she found at Expo WestProducts Mentioned:Culture Apothecarypodcast by Alex Clark (wherever you listen to podcasts)Loonen Water(glass-bottled, BPA-tested, heavy metal-tested still and sparkling water - found at Expo West, available on Amazon)Sylvan Table(Detroit area, farm-to-table, seasonal — Alex's best healthy restaurant in America)The Charlie Kirk Show(continued by Andrew, Blake, and Mikey at Turning Point USA)Episode Sponsors:Start your free trial atSHOPIFY.
