Welcome to the MyBuddyGreen podcast. I'm Jason Wackeb, founder and co-CEO of MyBuddyGreen and your host.

0:30.0

Robyn, welcome. It's so good to see you. Thank you, Jason. It's wonderful to be with you.

0:41.7

I wish I were down there in Miami hanging with you by the water, but this is going to have to do.

0:46.6

And we definitely need to do that. And I think the last time we saw each other was on our

0:53.4

revitalized event in 2015 in Arizona. I believe it's been a while. So what have you been?

1:00.6

You also spoke in 2014 and we were just reminiscing before we hit record about how great

1:07.4

those events were. And you were talking about the microbiome in 2014. And I remember there were a lot

first one, God bless was 2013. Second one, the microbiome solution was in 2015 right after that first

2:05.9

revitalize event. The second one, the third one, the bloke cure was 2016. And you know, Jason,

2:12.1

I thought I sort of had, you know, said what I had to say written these three books on digestive

2:17.0

health, all a little bit different. The first one, God bless, this sort of general introduction

2:22.5
