Sally Fallon Morell is an author, a farmer, a businesswoman, and the founder of multiple organizations dedicated to human flourishing.
And how, as humans, do we flourish, you might ask?
Simple: it all begins with our nutrition!
Inspired by the under-acknowledged genius of Dr. Weston A. Price, Sally has popularized the “Wise Traditions” Diet, a natural, wholesome, elegant way of eating to which countless people subscribe.
In this wide-ranging episode, Sally and I discuss…
The framing of a new dietary “Constitution”; The most unhealthy, damaging foods to exclude from your diet; The “Wise Traditions” Diet, and what it’s all about; Dr. Weston A. Price; His life and theory about nutrition; Milk as a microcosm of politics; Milk and Marxism; Metaphysics; Philosophy; Literature; Shakespeare; Louis Pasteur; The benefits of RAW MILK (and raw dairy, generally); The idea of the “Noble Savage”; Romanticizing primitive tribes; Eugenics; Progressivism and conservatism; Beauty; What it’s like to own and work on a farm,
And so MUCH more!
You’re going to love this conversation.

What is Finneran's Wake?
Finneran’s Wake – where the ART OF CONVERSATION lives.
Here, no topic is untouchable, no idea inadmissible, and no one too heretical to be heard.
As the great French essayist Montaigne once said, “To my taste, the most fruitful and natural exercise of our minds is CONVERSATION. I find the practice of it the most delightful activity in our lives”.
It certainly is the most delightful activity in my life. I want it to be so in yours as well.
To that end, I humbly welcome you to my channel.
Here, we'll exercise our minds together. Here, we'll practice this delightful activity as friends. We'll engage, now and forever, in the art--the highest and most human art--of conversation!
With affection,
Daniel
