    As far as base names, leave it alone. More black veterans and and service members are proud of their time on said bases than liberals are truly offended.

    • @MachineGunPepe
      @MachineGunPepe 2 роки тому +7

      The bases should be renamed after heroes( of all races) and not loser confederate generals like Bragg and Hood. Audie Murphy(white), Roy Benavidez,(Hispanic) Dory Miller(Black), etc all should be bases. I am as anti woke and libertarian as it gets but as veteran there are 1000x better people to name those bases for. I also think we should name a base after a GWOT veteran Staff Sergeant Cashe a black NCO who ran into a burning tank to save his guys and died and was denied the medal of honor until this year should have a base. I think replacing Polk with Cashe would fit.

    Canola oil is rapeseed oil from Canada, hence the Can in Canola. Called canola for marketing purposes. Sounds better than rapeseed oil. Should be called age in a bottle. Toast in the morning will spike your blood sugar level more than a snickers bar. Read the book "Wheat Belly", if you haven't already. Do yourself a favor and take the Pinner food intolerance test. You may be really surprised to find out some foods you eat all the time might be actually hurting you. Keep up the great podcasts Mike.

      No… even with steroids- you need to be cycling for years and years for it to have a significant impact on your natural testosterone levels, but even with that said- your testosterone naturally decreases over time after the age of 18-20 anyways. Most guys by the time they’re 30 years old have low testosterone.
