Description

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Leo Trasande, one of the country's leading experts on environmental health and toxic exposures, to discuss the growing threat of microplastics, PFAS, and endocrine-disrupting chemicals. We explore how these substances are affecting fertility, metabolism, brain development, chronic disease, and long-term public health—and why the economic costs are staggering. Dr. Trasande explains how plastics enter the body, what they may be doing once they're there, and what Americans can do to reduce exposure. We also discuss HHS's new STOMP initiative and the effort to understand and confront the impact of toxic chemicals on human health.

Tony Robbins on AI, Spirituality and the Future of Health

In this episode of The Secretary Kennedy Podcast, I sit down with entrepreneur, philanthropist, and bestselling author Tony Robbins for a wide-ranging conversation about health, nutrition, mental resilience, artificial intelligence, and the future of human potential. We discuss a new public-private partnership aimed at closing the protein gap for millions of Americans who rely on food banks. We also explore the rapid rise of artificial intelligence, how AI may transform healthcare, education, and the workforce, and what Americans can do to adapt and thrive in a world of accelerating technological change. Tony shares insights from decades of work helping people overcome adversity, build resilience, and find purpose through service. We discuss mental health, addiction recovery, spirituality, human performance, and why meaning, connection, and personal growth remain essential in an increasingly automated world. This conversation explores one of the defining questions of our time: how do we use technology to improve human wellbeing without losing sight of what makes us human?

Regenerative Agriculture and the Future of American Farming | Rick Clark

In this episode, I sit down with regenerative farmer Rick Clark to discuss the future of American farming and how regenerative agriculture is reshaping the way food is produced. Rick shares his journey from conventional farming to regenerative agriculture, explaining how practices like cover crops, no-till farming, and rebuilding soil health have lowered costs, improved profitability, and strengthened the resilience of his operation. We also explore the connection between soil health, nutrient density, chronic disease, and the practical and economic challenges farmers face when transitioning away from chemical-intensive agriculture. This conversation explores what it will take to build a more resilient agricultural system—one that supports farmers, restores the land, and produces healthier food for future generations.
