In this episode of Podcast Twins, the hosts dive into the changing meaning of the term "woke." Originally used in the Black community and hip-hop culture to raise awareness about social issues, it’s now often misunderstood and politicized. The hosts discuss how this term has evolved and been twisted over time, including its use in corporate marketing—like when Ben & Jerry’s got criticized for being too politically correct.

The conversation takes a turn as they explore how big companies influence what we eat, with a focus on processed foods and the role of pharmaceuticals in our daily lives. Could a healthier diet mean fewer medical interventions? They even touch on how celebrity endorsements, like Taylor Swift’s connection to the NFL, shape public opinion and the business of sports.

From food choices to the impact of marketing, the hosts discuss how society’s obsession with convenience might be affecting our health and wellness. With plenty of humor and straight talk, this episode will make you think twice about how consumer culture influences everything from our food to our politics.

Join us for a candid conversation that’s both informative and entertaining. Don’t forget to subscribe and stay tuned for more!
