Ep. 12 Immune Health: Boost or Bust?

In This Episode

Neal and Mark dive even deeper and talk about the… “oh-no!” …topic of vaccinations ::GASP::, COVID, diet, exercise, and the “superhero” mentality people want to reach. 

Yes, even more Saugerties shout-outs in this one, plus Mark’s up and down and all-around experience being back at Garlic Festival, and of course jokes, upon jokes, upon… do we dare say it? Jokes… Bad ones yes, but still, they’re jokes, folks.
