0:00.0	It's the way I heard it with me, Mike Rowe, and what's his name over there looking at me
0:08.0	with an odd mix of trepidation because I can see that you're worried about the implicit commitment
0:14.7	that's been made as a result of the conversation we just had, Chuck.
0:19.8	That is true. And what are we calling this conversation, Mike?
0:22.6	Well, the title is going to be Talking Points and Scotch with our friend Vinnie Tortorich.
0:28.6	Yes.
0:29.6	Who I do believe we can reasonably say is our friend.
0:32.6	It's his third appearance on the podcast.
0:34.6	Yeah, and this time in person, which was really nice to actually see him in the

1:14.4	He has become a jagged little bill in the eyes of the food industry to the point where his
1:20.0	latest documentary, which I can't recommend enough, it's called Dirty Keto, got a PG-13 rating.
1:26.3	What's up with that? I don't know. I was trying to think about it,
1:29.0	because we've both seen it. Is there language in it? No. He doesn't say the F word, the S-word, anything
1:34.2	like that? No. What he does is make a pretty compelling case that the food pyramid that we grew up
1:41.4	with is exactly upside down.
1:45.0	It should be reversed.
