Single-Herb Vapes Done Right with Anthony Canelo

Single-Herb Vapes Done Right with Anthony Canelo

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2102421/fan_mail/new] The supplement world trains us to expect giant “proprietary blends,” but inhalation is a different game. When something goes into your lungs, “probably fine” is not good enough, and vague labels like “natural flavors” can hide a lot more than people realize.  Joe Grumbine talks with master herbalist Anthony Canillo, founder of Five To One Formulas, about a radically simple approach to herbal vaping: single-herb botanicals infused into coconut-derived organic vegetable glycerin. We unpack why vaporization temperature matters, how combustion creates PAHs, and why adding more ingredients can increase the risk of creating unwanted byproducts. Anthony also explains why big clouds can be a clue that propylene glycol (PG) is involved, even when a product claims to be clean.  We also get honest about lab testing and transparency. From third-party COAs to the need for mass spectrometry and HPLC with proper reference standards, this conversation is a practical guide to asking better questions about botanical vape safety, ingredient sourcing, and what “tested” really means. Anthony shares the current herb lineup, how he avoids medical claims, and the simple takeaway that protects you in any wellness aisle.  If you find this helpful, subscribe, share it with a friend who cares about clean ingredients, and leave a review with the biggest red flag you watch for when buying vapes or supplements.

Healing In The Garden with Socrates Charos

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2102421/fan_mail/new] A tree can be more than shade and fruit. For us, it can be a living reminder that love is real, that prayer is possible, and that healing can start the moment we stop rushing and start paying attention. Joe Grumbine sits down again with Socrates for a joyful, faith-forward conversation about the Holy Spirit, creation, and why gardens feel like sacred ground. We talk about learning “love” through the trees, the Bible’s repeated return to gardens and water, and the way time outdoors can soften anxiety and fear. Joe also shares how his own garden and nonprofit retreats are turning into a place where people from different backgrounds come to breathe, work in the soil, and leave calmer than they arrived. We get surprisingly practical too: olive trees, curing olives, and why olive oil carries both health value and spiritual meaning in Christian tradition. From there, the conversation turns to prayer in everyday places, spiritual authority, and a grounding scripture Socrates points to for self-prayer: Romans 8:11. We also wrestle with the tension between love-centered faith and “religion as business,” coming back to one simple mission that keeps showing up: love one another. If you’re looking for a Christian podcast conversation that connects healing prayer, nature therapy, and real-life practices for peace, this one is for you.

The Seed Oil Problem with Cherie Calbom

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2102421/fan_mail/new] Seed oils don’t just show up in your frying pan, they show up in the “healthy” stuff too. Host Joe Grumbine sits down with nutritionist and author Cherie Calbom (The Truth About Seed Oils) to trace how industrial cooking oils became a staple of the modern diet and why so many people now suspect they’re driving inflammation, cravings, and chronic health issues. We walk through the origin story: cottonseed oil and wartime industry, the rise of “vegetable oil” branding, and the moment heart disease surged and saturated fat took the blame. Sherry explains why the cholesterol narrative stuck for decades, how low-fat food culture helped fuel more sugar intake and rising obesity, and why it’s so easy to confuse correlation with causation when you’re looking at health headlines. Then we get practical. Sherry breaks down which oils are considered seed oils (soy, corn, canola, sunflower, safflower, grapeseed, cottonseed, rice bran, peanut), why processing methods matter (high heat and chemical extraction), and what to use instead based on smoke point and flavor. We also talk omega-6 vs omega-3 balance, simple grocery-store label checks, and easy swaps like choosing olive oil or avocado oil based dressings and snacks, plus cooking more at home so you control the ingredients. If you want a clear, doable plan for healthier fats without perfectionism, hit play. Subscribe, share this with a friend who loves reading labels, and leave a review so more people can find the show.

Your Words Shape Your Life When You Believe with Bishop Socrates Charos

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2102421/fan_mail/new] A Greek American immigrant becomes a Hollywood talent scout, then hears a call that flips his life in a completely different direction. We’re joined by Bishop Socrates Charos, founder of Church of All Nations in Clearwater, Florida, for a fast-moving conversation that blends personal story, Christian faith, and an intense focus on healing, joy, and the power of spoken words. We talk through Socrates’ path from engineering to entertainment, what he says changed when he stepped into ministry, and why he keeps repeating a simple idea: “I don’t know what I’m doing” but I’m willing to serve. He shares bold testimonies and beliefs about spiritual healing through prayer, the authority he associates with the name of Jesus, and why he thinks people overcomplicate what faith is supposed to look like. You’ll also hear us dig into the emotional side of healthy living: how constant negativity and complaining can become a trap, and how choosing love, joy, and peace can reshape the way you experience your day. The conversation opens up even wider when we connect healing to the outdoors. We discuss gardens as sanctuary spaces, nature as a restorative practice, and the heartbreak of habitat loss when development pushes animals out. If you care about holistic health, mindset, spiritual wellness, and how community choices affect mental health and the environment, you’ll find plenty to wrestle with here.

Natural Remedies And Community Care Can Change Lives with Nita Watson

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2102421/fan_mail/new] A garden can do what four walls never will. We sit down with Nita Watson to share the real story behind a Health and Wellness Day we’re building at the Gardens of Hope in the Inland Empire and why “restoration for mind, body, and spirit” is more than a slogan when you can feel nature working on your nervous system in real time. If you care about holistic health, community wellness, and practical healing tools, this conversation lays out what we’re creating and how you can plug in.  Nita also takes us through her mission-driven work, including the Free Indeed Reentry Project and the impact of helping people clear past records through expungement and dismissal. We talk about how justice, stability, and health are connected, and why coalition-building matters when a community is trying to climb out of stress, chronic illness, and systems that profit from keeping people stuck.  From there, we get into cannabis wellness and clean skin care in a way that stays grounded. Nita shares why she relies on Willow Creek Springs CBD products day to day, and we unpack the difference between masking symptoms and supporting the body’s natural balance. We also preview a new white label product line through Black Gold Urban Grow Hemp Care Consulting, designed with melanated skin in mind, plus why reading ingredient labels matters when so many “beauty” products are packed with petroleum-based fillers and harsh additives.  If this resonates, subscribe so you don’t miss the monthly updates leading into the October event, share this with a friend who needs better options, and leave a review to help more listeners find the show.
