Let's look at life through the lens of our ancestors. Our instincts were shaped by their struggles in an environment much different than our current environment.

We blend the science of evolutionary psychology with the clinical experience of Doug Lisle, PhD to explore common problems and stumbling points in our pursuit of happiness.

Growing Pulse Crops
This show features the latest in research, agronomy, and economics of pulse crops (peas, chickpeas, lentils, etc.). Demand for these nutrient-dense, high-protein foods continues to grow. There is also interest from farmers to include more pulses into diverse rotations for benefits like nitrogen fixation and soil health. But the industry continues to face challenges, and we are eager to address these head on. So if you’re a pulse grower or in any way interested in these important crops, hit subscribe and stay tuned for future episodes.
