Hi, I'm Ethan Sopli, welcome to American Blood. Outside of acting, my two favorite things

to do are diet and eat. I have a very complicated relationship with food and on this podcast,

we're going to talk about all of it. Food as entertainment, food as sport, food as fuel.

I'll talk to experts and the average person, just like you and me.

I hate to ask you to do anything, but if you're enjoying this show, please take a moment

My guests today are Mark Washington and Dr. Chris Damon. And they have created something
