    Charlie Kirk's martyrdom highlighted many things worldwide. We saw people mourn in various countries and we saw celebrations. How did we get here? However, his death was a wake up call for me to realign with what I believe must by mission is. In this episode I discuss: - Reactions to Charlie's passing - Me engagement with politics - 5 Headlines: US officials to not attend G20; Mdlanga Comission; Zohran Mamdami and New York; Sex Offender Arrested; Turkey says there is genocide in Gaza. - Exciting news about the podcast.

    031. TIM NOAKES!! The Bad Idea of Carbs and The Food Pyramid Lie

    Ideas shape lives — and nowhere is that clearer than in the way we eat. In this episode of Hey Culture, I sit down with Prof. Tim Noakes, world-renowned scientist, author, and founder of The Noakes Foundation, Nutrition Network, and Eat Better South Africa. We talk about: ​ Why the “carbs are essential” narrative fails.​ How bad science and policy created a health crisis.​ His upcoming World Nutrition Summit 2025 — and how you can be part of it. 👉 Learn more: ​ The Noakes Foundation: https://thenoakesfoundation.org​ Nutrition Network: https://nutrition-network.org​ Eat Better South Africa: https://eatbetter.org.za SALA: salamissions.africa Apologetics SA: apologetics.co.za 🎧 Subscribe to Hey Culture on: YouTube: https://youtube.com/@heyculture?si=XGvtgw9Edos0sKj8 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/03PQULG3wKSi71Q9OeC7B0?si=4HQ1NLWKS8ml7HJLr-LPQA Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/za/podcast/hey-culture/id1739061059 💡 About Hey Culture: Hey Culture is where truth meets culture and Jesus transforms lives.
