Continuing Joey's deep-dive into all things "organic", we dive take on pesticides! How much do we ingest? How harmful are they? Does organic food still contain pesticides? Are natural pesticides safe? Joey has some troubling answers! But first, research out of UMass Medical School suggests that machine learning has discovered  how non-antibiotic drugs destroy bacteria. What does that mean for infection fighting? Also, in totally obvious news, a new meta-analysis shows that hugs are, in fact, FANTASTIC for both physical and mental health. Hug a friend. Hug your family. It's good for everyone and we've got the receipts!
