Emily's New York Times interview was...weird
About this episode
In this episode, we’re diving into the often-misunderstood world of crunchy living. Emily and Jason break down the stereotypes surrounding crunchy people—like the idea that they’re overly judgmental, hyper-political, or rigidly conservative—and unpack why these misconceptions persist. Emily shares insights from her recent interview with The New York Times, where the reporter framed her story through a narrow lens, leading to a thought-provoking conversation about narratives and agendas.
At the heart of it all, Emily and Jason ask an important question: Why can’t we all agree on the basics of being healthy, happy humans? With their signature humor and candidness, they challenge listeners to embrace a more open-minded view of what it means to live naturally—and remind everyone that crunchy isn’t a one-size-fits-all label.
