After watching Down To Earth, Treebox (London) episode, I planted dozens of pollenating shrubs and flowers, started growing fruit outside and making a real effort to create an eco-friendly environment where I have power over it. We have strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, tomatoes, cucumbers, courgettes and bell peppers - so easy to grow - even easier than indoor plants - and we have so many different bumble bees and honey bees now! Butterflies, etc. Even the cats are loving it. I’m so in love with helping this planet
I love listening to Darin, his deep conversations don't make me want to be just like him but make me want to look harder at myself. What do I want for my health and how can I contribute to my community and what can I do to leave a smaller footprint. He gives me that spark of knowledge that makes me want to dig deeper, a burning desire to learn more.
I have been WAITING for this moment. The whole world needs to know about this guy and what he stands for. He’s a beacon of light. Zac was lucky to travel with him
I don't think I"ve ever seen another human with more in common with me than Darin has, but, when he got to talking about blood diamonds, I just about fell of my chair, I quit wearing jewelry in the 80's after reading an article about a little boy having his hand chopped off for stealing from a diamond mine, DeBeer's allowed the local legal system to apply any and all punishment if they caught their "child slaves" trying to steal.. When the 90's rolled around the concept of blood diamonds came to light in the mainstream, I at first stopped wearing diamonds, then I realized all jewelry even fake is destructive and has some connection to resource extraction....I have survived most of my adult life without having to artificially shine. What great podcast, thanks guys.
Great video! We are both in our 80's and are all about healthy aging. Getting older does have to mean getting sicker. We still strive for a strong body, a calm mind, & a positive outlook. Plant-based for years. Thanks!
What a man the way he has found a way to open his heart to ALL people and as an African I often feel we are the forgotten people and to be part of conversation even a little bit is wonderful to know we are valid and someone sees!
I just love genuine, dedicated, caring, down to earth people like this two guys. I always get so much from this podcasts and it’s comforting to see people like this exist. Everyone with awareness needs to contribute a little bit to make a change! Peace, plants:))
i have been planning on building off grid on some property i purchased a few years ago, and in british columbia, have been coming up against so many barriers even before building. i want to build an earthen home with solar, compositing etc etc etc, but its always no with each turn step i try...its not right. its come to the point when i finally realized that we are owned by the governing powers. they do not care.....they are a gang. any person who wants to build for themselves, will most always build better than what the generic cookie fabricated homes. you are right about getting our power back, but its really freedom is what is at stake. i agree that it starts with our own personal health, mentally, spiritually, and physically...i think what your doing is awesome and i am very proud of you two...thanks for helping me to stay awake.
My two favorite men together again. How amazing would it be to be in your inner circle ❤️ Powerful message in the middle on letting go🙏🏼😊 Always love the easy conversations you have with guests.
The series is INCREDIBLE!!!! I was enthralled! And yes, the episode where he lost his home tore my heart out. Cannot imagine how painful that was. Keep up the good fight! You're amazing!
Read the book SUPERLIFE. Watched DOWN TO EARTH. Ate the BARUKAS. Huge fan obviously. Continually learning and making changes to how I eat and spend my dollars. Thanks guys to you both for what you do!
Please, we need you again in #PuertoRico. Its been a difficult years for us that hit us in almost every area. We keep fighting; We are resilient people. But we need more voices like you in our Island. Thank you, Zac, and all the team. Waiting on Season 2, but if didn't happend, we need more helping hands. Good job and great interview. 👏🤙🇵🇷 #PuertoRico #DownToEarth
Very hard not to love the guy. Rich does an amazing job at always keeping the aura around everyone in a way that allows listeners to keep learning. I actually went and bought the books after hearing the earlier interviews of DO. Great work.
Love this guy, and I was super bummed there wasn’t more episodes to this series. I would love a more academic, and intricate show about environmental issues through your eyes Darin!
Yes. Couldn't agree more. To be honest, the idea of someone traveling around the world in the search for 'superfoods' to mass produce in factories, package in plastic and ship around the world sounds to me like the opposite of environmental sustainability. How many superfoods have come out in recent years? Too many to count. These are all marketing scams to make you think you are missing out on something that will make you feel amazing and healthy. Superfoods are, quite frankly, bullshit. Human nutrition is very simple and doesn't require us to eat exotic foods from all over the world, shipped to us for our pleasure. How did we ever survive before these magical superfoods were available to us? We would all benefit greatly from removing all processed foods (seed oils, refined grains and refined sugar). Then only eat whole foods produced locally. Whatever your dietary inclinations - its that simple.
Agree, I think with Darin's presence/fame, he can work on a macro scale, and certainly figuring out how to preserve the rainforest is a major goal for the world, but, as someone once told me, "we can all do our little part", and for me that's going to the _local_ farmers market. Though I think that's something Darin and Zach highlighted on the show, for example the resurgence of local foods in Puerto Rico after the hurricane, due to the lack of availability of cheap imports.
I just finished Down to Earth and was totally encouraged to start eating healthier! I started the audiobook of Superlife and it's amazing. I'm so happy that Darin exists and I can learn from him. 😊 I can't wait to change my life for the better. ❤
Brilliant conversation absolutely love Darin 💚 I wish the whole water topic was explored more on Down to Earth I came away from that thinking tap water was a better option than any filtered water I had access to as I didn’t want to deplete any mineral content. This clarifies things, thanks Darin 😊
Such a profound interview! “Down to Earth” definitely opens the minds and hearts of all who watch it! they may never have been the type of person to be into what’s really going on with the damage we are causing!!!
I love this guy! Just recently discovered him. The more I listen to him the more love him. I can feel his passion, dedication, humanity, kindness through the screen. Down to earth on my to watch list. Just ordered super life, will buy some baruka nuts. ❤❤❤👏👏👏
Thank u Darin for such a good delivery of complicated issues. My 5,5 year old daughter loved Down to earth so much that she watched every episode many times. She can’t ( and we as well) get enough of it. We are all spreading the word . Love what you’re doing. God bless
I’m that dude! I’m your age (older!)...it changed me, educated me and introduced me to Darin. Reading SuperLife now...very cool...and now I know who Rich Roll is too...keeps getting better. Thanks all...
Dang Rich! I only got about 38 minutes into this and had to stop. Partly because I got home from the store and had to make dinner. (Portobello mushroom burgers and Brussel sprouts on the grill. ) I had never heard of Darin’s show on Netflix and honestly didn’t know who Zack was. I watched the first episode in Iceland and loved it. I’ve watched a lot of things in Netflix but this is a new favorite. Hopefully I’ll get back to your interview another time soon! Thanks for sharing this!
Couldn't agree with Darin more on the monopolies over energy. Great matter to highlight. If we as humans are infinite possibilities, we must all be able to live off grid. Fundamental to that, I suggest, is that we all need to simplify, let go of our materialistic tendency thereby significantly reducing our consumption of the planet. If we reduce the issue at source - Consumerism - we have the opportunity to truly impact our planet and our lives. More peaceful and joyful human beings will result.
Thank God I found this video. I just shared it. I watched Down to Earth , 4 times. I love the humor between Darin and Zac but love the info. So amazing what's possible. America needs a wake up. Seriously. So much Greed. That's what's behind the power, meds, food, water, etc. Iwas lol when Darin chased off tree trimmers from power co. YOU GO DUDE....ya I am hoping to be off grid someday. Trying to learn minimalism. Bless you. Thanks Rich. I'm a new fan
Great interview, thanks Rich! Love the origin story for the show - only in California! I understand Darin might have wanted the show to be different, but as a fan, I think it worked out beautifully. Certainly, there is great chemistry between Zack and Darin - they seem to be lifelong friends, I had no idea they met just to do the show. Somehow, the mix of characters works really well, with Darin's mix of down-to-earth Minnesotan / avant-garde Californian, and Zach's curiosity and enthusiasm. (Reminded me a bit of the fun of Rich in a clip where he and an IronMan buddy went to a grocery store in Hawaii to find super-foods.) Super interesting, and super fun. Darin / Zach - thanks for the inspiring show, hope to see more episode, whether on Netflix or wherever.
Two very intelligent guys. Loved the questions, the unpacking, the explanations. Well done interviewer & interviewee 👍 And by the way I’m 52 year male changing my ways having watched Zac & Darin.
Been taking the Moringa since he was on last time and I'm loving it, seems to have helped all kinds of little issues. Also have been ordering Barukas regularly 👍 #superlife
I’m so glad you guys got into it :) it’s so good for our (personal) evolution - I hope your journey is heavily fruited with lots more wisdom and knowledge
I love the food, water, and power sovereignty talk. I'll check out 'Down to Earth with Zac Efron'. I appreciate that you listen attentively and then at times, summarize the ideas of your guest, Rich.
First, I adore this podcast! And the nuts must be delicious but the one-way packaging is still there. How can we change that? How can we eat nuts without having to buy this super designed packaging. Don't take me wrong... I buy often nuts packed in a similar way but it's wrong and I feel terrible. It's also not sustainable at all. Can you think about commercializing them in another way? Maybe only in packaging-free supermarkets?
There are several ways to be off grid. Amazing stuff out there. Be curious and do research. This interview is inspiring. With Covid, this conversation makes sense, and people should know how to live within their own 'environment'. Thank you for being voices of wisdom. Great work, again.
Saw the show on Netflix and was blown away when they brought out "Slovenian water" like it's something super special (I'm a Slovenian), most probably it's just our bottled tap water and yeah, it's amazing
Hi there, I m Lorenza from Brasil, unfortunately for the people who didn t vote for the current president, we sadly watch our forest Amazon, Cerrado and Pantanal burning, just the Pantanal already burned 3.000.000 acres these past months, and our government praise the agribusiness doing it so, we feel hopeless and not understanding how can this be happening. Hearing about how the baru nuts helps local people to cash from keeping the nature in cerrado, made me very glad, hope you all americans buy lots of baru nuts and became vegans, as now Brasil is exporting a lot of meat to other countries, so lets chang the stake or meat burguer for baru nuts people. I from south of Brasil and here we have Araucaria trees with their amazing seeds, pinhao, Darin would love it, this tree lives up to 700 years, they are magestic and they are geting close to extinction as only 3% of the original Araucaria forest is left in south of Brasil, right now the power company was aloud to cut 4.000 of these trees to pass out the high power lines and people are fighting back to save the Araucaria trees, anyway it made me think of how important is for us to be able to generate our own energy, unfortunately my current roof doesn t have the space enough for photovoltaic energy plaques, but I will keep following Darin to know other options for making ourbown energy, so we don t need to keep releiing on these companies. Sorry if my english is not clear enough. But I m very glad that that you are sharing the word and more and more people are serching for sustanable ways to live.
Great podcast! Thank you for focusing on our environment. Ordered the nuts. And keep us posted on how we can get our own sustainable energy. Extremely moving and empowering! Thank you
Thank you both for taking the time to provide and share this valuable information. Thank you to the crew behind the scenes for putting this amazing podcast together. We are all truly Blessed. 🇨🇦❤️🙏
If I had more money saved up I’d invest in Barukas - I’m just going to have to buy a sh*t ton of baruka nuts + butter What a magnificent company - what they stand for - saving Brazilian’s lives, habitat and this incredible superfood - I want to be Darin’s employee
Darin, such an awesome guy and inspirational. Continue doing your thing and bettering the world. If you need help I am completely willing to put some of my time to help develop your app if you need it. That is something worth making and you are doing the absolute best for the Earth through you knowledge and education. Peace, plants Darin and Rich!
start raising hemp for paper products and move away from plastic, we got to get done with pllastic. hemp also cleans the air and produces back into nutrient rich soil.
Another FANTASTIC conversation. I am also a big fan of decentralising power! Although the system is not set up well in my country, we've been trying our best to construct such a system for ourselves and I really want to hear more about it(waiting for another episode)! Also, what a pity I cannot watch this series in my country! I have no idea what will I do but I have to watch it!
Shelbizleee has a wonderful TH-cam channel where she pays a lot of attention to sustainable companies. This is a good place to start. I've learned a lot from her research into greenwashing at major labels, and her tips on what to look for are very helpful.
Rich!! I love you podcast, I loved your book, I love your guests... but your intro and conclusion wakes up my two month old daughter! Ack! Why is it so much louder than your interview? She loves the melody of the voices and then she's jolted awake by the violence of the tone. You close the interview 10 times before the end (which I love for its authenticity) and I try to lunge for the computer when I hear you say, "Peace! Plants...," but I rarely make it in time. Help! Thank you for what you're doing; it's really fantastic!
I'm being presumptive but I'm certain Darin has been in contact with Michael Reynolds, the creator of Earthships... based in Taos, New Mexico... he has over 40 years experience with Off-Grid AND fighting the government. He was FINALLY (years years years) given permission by being forced into creating a development with roads, sewage, power infrastructure that THEY DO NOT USE. IT'S ALL ABOUT MONEY... and, rightly so... communities MUST know about zoning and property tax 'earnings' so they can provide for the citizenry... so we all 'get it'... but GROWTH and change are what we ALL need... allover the planet. Kudos to Darin. I'm sad his relationship/marriage didn't survive thru his travels... glad he met a 100 year old woman that reminded him she didn't need a man so he doesn't NEED a woman. After the fire and destruction of his home he is STILL living there, still sequestered, still alone... yet he knows he has love in his life, friendships, connection. Happy to have listened to this podcast. Thanks, Rich.
For skin and body care products I have been using the EWG site for years now. It rates each product for toxicity and breaks down the ingredients into which are toxic and how they affect the health. It is at www.ewg.org/skindeep/. I must admit, I don't watch Netflix or television so I haven't heard about Down to Earth. I do watch things I am interested in on TH-cam on similar topics. I have been enjoying your podcast. I have been Vegan for the past 12 years and love it. This is a fascinating interview and I will be checking out Darin's podcast. Thank you!
Hi Rich/Darin I’m in the U.K. Are you just looking out for Americans/Canadians. We need you guy’s over here as well distributing your products etc. I have tinnitus and 3am I put this on to take away the tinnitus sounds and drift back to sleep and 5:30 I’m writing to complain that I can’t buy your nuts. Now that is nuts. Great info I’m now heading over to Netflix. Your both absolutely brilliant.
Let's see a show on how to empower those without wealth to be able to unplug from monopolies. What models exist out there now? Do they transplant or are they unique to the geographic and cultural milieu from which it emerged?
Joining in not buying-using single use water bottles, would like to buy a small tent. Rich sleeps in a tent, should I find a canvas tent?? to avoid more 'plastic'...most popular and top rated are nylon.Also, jet fuel is so not green. What would your guest say about world travel...regarding jet fuel? please answer
@darinolien what you said at 1hour17 minuets I am with you 100%! If you watch dr. Steven Greer’s video on what is available for us when it comes to electricity and power in general, most people aren’t aware of clean energy that isn’t solar or wind powered. There is one that can power the entire universe that we can harness without ugly power lines and inflated power bills. I hope that you will check it out. I think most of the world population will stand behind this to get it implemented. I hope you will check it out. I definitely want to be part of it
Can we just take a second to appreciate Darin’s biceps please. Check out that cut! Are you mad! His physique is insane! I’m sure he’s nearing 50, I want to be bussing out muscles like that till I’m 100
I think the reason why the show is so popular is because they made it with celebrity and it basically was a fluff on important issues. In my experience most people enjoy fluff material and conversation. When the content turns serious and more informative, people get uncomfortable and standoffish and simply shut it out. It’s sad, it just seems like people just want just enough knowledge to get by and live in the dark at the same time. I personally would have loved a more in-depth show that Darin wanted, a more scientific, in your face information based show. I love Darin, his whole vibe and knowledge and love of discovery. I did love the show, don’t get me wrong... I’m glad it brought attention to some very important issues. I hope the whole experience with Darin left an impact on all that was involved.
After watching Down To Earth, Treebox (London) episode, I planted dozens of pollenating shrubs and flowers, started growing fruit outside and making a real effort to create an eco-friendly environment where I have power over it.
We have strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, tomatoes, cucumbers, courgettes and bell peppers - so easy to grow - even easier than indoor plants - and we have so many different bumble bees and honey bees now! Butterflies, etc. Even the cats are loving it. I’m so in love with helping this planet
Being vegan is so easy these days isn't it
You might want to look into permaculture if your interested in planting more sustainably
I love listening to Darin, his deep conversations don't make me want to be just like him but make me want to look harder at myself. What do I want for my health and how can I contribute to my community and what can I do to leave a smaller footprint. He gives me that spark of knowledge that makes me want to dig deeper, a burning desire to learn more.
I have been WAITING for this moment. The whole world needs to know about this guy and what he stands for. He’s a beacon of light. Zac was lucky to travel with him
Yes, well put. He is a beacon of light.
I don't think I"ve ever seen another human with more in common with me than Darin has, but, when he got to talking about blood diamonds, I just about fell of my chair, I quit wearing jewelry in the 80's after reading an article about a little boy having his hand chopped off for stealing from a diamond mine, DeBeer's allowed the local legal system to apply any and all punishment if they caught their "child slaves" trying to steal.. When the 90's rolled around the concept of blood diamonds came to light in the mainstream, I at first stopped wearing diamonds, then I realized all jewelry even fake is destructive and has some connection to resource extraction....I have survived most of my adult life without having to artificially shine. What great podcast, thanks guys.
We love Darin! So glad the world finally knows about his amazing work and spirit!
Great video! We are both in our 80's and are all about healthy aging. Getting older does have to mean getting sicker. We still strive for a strong body, a calm mind, & a positive outlook. Plant-based for years. Thanks!
Thank you for caring about our planet
Rich, you are a natural professor. So glad you are here.
What a man the way he has found a way to open his heart to ALL people and as an African I often feel we are the forgotten people and to be part of conversation even a little bit is wonderful to know we are valid and someone sees!
That makes me sad that you feel Not Seen.
I think ITS hard to become someone in africa. But meditate and think a Lot. You can do it.
Everyone can be vegan and be a positive change we need to see everywhere.
I just love genuine, dedicated, caring, down to earth people like this two guys. I always get so much from this podcasts and it’s comforting to see people like this exist.
Everyone with awareness needs to contribute a little bit to make a change!
Peace, plants:))
i have been planning on building off grid on some property i purchased a few years ago, and in british columbia, have been coming up against so many barriers even before building. i want to build an earthen home with solar, compositing etc etc etc, but its always no with each turn step i try...its not right. its come to the point when i finally realized that we are owned by the governing powers. they do not care.....they are a gang. any person who wants to build for themselves, will most always build better than what the generic cookie fabricated homes. you are right about getting our power back, but its really freedom is what is at stake. i agree that it starts with our own personal health, mentally, spiritually, and physically...i think what your doing is awesome and i am very proud of you two...thanks for helping me to stay awake.

Very hard not to love the guy. Rich does an amazing job at always keeping the aura around everyone in a way that allows listeners to keep learning. I actually went and bought the books after hearing the earlier interviews of DO.
Great work.
Love this guy, and I was super bummed there wasn’t more episodes to this series. I would love a more academic, and intricate show about environmental issues through your eyes Darin!
Just don't forget, there's something to be said about eating local grown food as much as possible too.
Yes. Couldn't agree more. To be honest, the idea of someone traveling around the world in the search for 'superfoods' to mass produce in factories, package in plastic and ship around the world sounds to me like the opposite of environmental sustainability.

What an inspiring guy. Really glad I discovered him.
Brilliant conversation absolutely love Darin 💚 I wish the whole water topic was explored more on Down to Earth I came away from that thinking tap water was a better option than any filtered water I had access to as I didn’t want to deplete any mineral content. This clarifies things, thanks Darin 😊
Darin we need a season 2!!!!!! Please we need more. Be cool if rich could join you two. Too much fun indeed!
Just wow! I just discovered Rich Roll and now Darin Olien. I love this tribe. I so am on the same page. Thank you so much!
Such a profound interview! “Down to Earth” definitely opens the minds and hearts of all who watch it! they may never have been the type of person to be into what’s really going on with the damage we are causing!!!
I love this guy! Just recently discovered him. The more I listen to him the more love him. I can feel his passion, dedication, humanity, kindness through the screen. Down to earth on my to watch list. Just ordered super life, will buy some baruka nuts. ❤❤❤👏👏👏
Very moving, profound beautiful conversation. Appreciate you both

This CA almond grower is now hooked on Baruka nuts.

Two very intelligent guys. Loved the questions, the unpacking, the explanations. Well done interviewer & interviewee 👍
And by the way I’m 52 year male changing my ways having watched Zac & Darin.
Rich Roll, you are my top podcaster that i listen to!!!
Beyond excellent conversations as always
Been taking the Moringa since he was on last time and I'm loving it, seems to have helped all kinds of little issues. Also have been ordering Barukas regularly 👍 #superlife
2 amazing men together again. Darin is changing lives including mine!
I've passed up the Zach show thinking "oh just a Stars show...now I got to watch it due to this pod cast!!!
Chrissie Morton yeah never pass up on Darin - he’s a “dark horse” - you wouldn’t have a clue how much this guy knows !!
Same!
I’m so glad you guys got into it :) it’s so good for our (personal) evolution - I hope your journey is heavily fruited with lots more wisdom and knowledge
I love the food, water, and power sovereignty talk. I'll check out 'Down to Earth with Zac Efron'.
I appreciate that you listen attentively and then at times, summarize the ideas of your guest, Rich.
1:08-1:09 powerful concepts that the world needs right now
Darin Olien just blew my mind about water
First, I adore this podcast! And the nuts must be delicious but the one-way packaging is still there. How can we change that? How can we eat nuts without having to buy this super designed packaging. Don't take me wrong... I buy often nuts packed in a similar way but it's wrong and I feel terrible. It's also not sustainable at all. Can you think about commercializing them in another way?

Darin is amazing 🙏 may the algorithm take this far
Love the show...and Barukas!
Hi there, I m Lorenza from Brasil, unfortunately for the people who didn t vote for the current president, we sadly watch our forest Amazon, Cerrado and Pantanal burning, just the Pantanal already burned 3.000.000 acres these past months, and our government praise the agribusiness doing it so, we feel hopeless and not understanding how can this be happening.
Hearing about how the baru nuts helps local people to cash from keeping the nature in cerrado, made me very glad, hope you all americans buy lots of baru nuts and became vegans, as now Brasil is exporting a lot of meat to other countries, so lets chang the stake or meat burguer for baru nuts people.
I from south of Brasil and here we have Araucaria trees with their amazing seeds, pinhao, Darin would love it, this tree lives up to 700 years, they are magestic and they are geting close to extinction as only 3% of the original Araucaria forest is left in south of Brasil, right now the power company was aloud to cut 4.000 of these trees to pass out the high power lines and people are fighting back to save the Araucaria trees, anyway it made me think of how important is for us to be able to generate our own energy, unfortunately my current roof doesn t have the space enough for photovoltaic energy plaques, but I will keep following Darin to know other options for making ourbown energy, so we don t need to keep releiing on these companies.
Sorry if my english is not clear enough. But I m very glad that that you are sharing the word and more and more people are serching for sustanable ways to live.
God this was so inspiring, thank you! I'm with you.
1:12:00 Darin is on fireeee!!
So ironic, we have "Down to Earth set up for this evening. Such a great conversation, thanks to you both!
Great podcast! Thank you for focusing on our environment. Ordered the nuts. And keep us posted on how we can get our own sustainable energy. Extremely moving and empowering! Thank you
Thank you both for taking the time to provide and share this valuable information. Thank you to the crew behind the scenes for putting this amazing podcast together. We are all truly Blessed. 🇨🇦❤️🙏
Rich is the behind the scenes crew
Just watched the show last night, love it ! So much is possible if governments would all get on board.
I LOVED this episode! How have I not heard of Darin Olien before?! THANK YOU!!
If I had more money saved up I’d invest in Barukas - I’m just going to have to buy a sh*t ton of baruka nuts + butter
What a magnificent company - what they stand for - saving Brazilian’s lives, habitat and this incredible superfood - I want to be Darin’s employee
Darin, such an awesome guy and inspirational. Continue doing your thing and bettering the world. If you need help I am completely willing to put some of my time to help develop your app if you need it. That is something worth making and you are doing the absolute best for the Earth through you knowledge and education. Peace, plants Darin and Rich!
Really dig RR's podcast & especially love Darin Olien's closing words ❤🙏
TARZAN FOODS,,,, keep up the good work,,, we need these food,,, cheers to all,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
start raising hemp for paper products and move away from plastic, we got to get done with pllastic. hemp also cleans the air and produces back into nutrient rich soil.
Another FANTASTIC conversation. I am also a big fan of decentralising power! Although the system is not set up well in my country, we've been trying our best to construct such a system for ourselves and I really want to hear more about it(waiting for another episode)!
Also, what a pity I cannot watch this series in my country! I have no idea what will I do but I have to watch it!
my two favorite guys
Shelbizleee has a wonderful TH-cam channel where she pays a lot of attention to sustainable companies. This is a good place to start. I've learned a lot from her research into greenwashing at major labels, and her tips on what to look for are very helpful.
Excited to hear this in the morning 🙌🏽
Thank you, Rich and Darin.
Love him 🙏
Love your message,🇨🇦 sending blessings!
Thank-you 🙏
Rich!! I love you podcast, I loved your book, I love your guests... but your intro and conclusion wakes up my two month old daughter! Ack! Why is it so much louder than your interview? She loves the melody of the voices and then she's jolted awake by the violence of the tone. You close the interview 10 times before the end (which I love for its authenticity) and I try to lunge for the computer when I hear you say, "Peace! Plants...," but I rarely make it in time. Help! Thank you for what you're doing; it's really fantastic!
Incredibly inspiring, moving and deep. Thank you!
I'm being presumptive but I'm certain Darin has been in contact with Michael Reynolds, the creator of Earthships... based in Taos, New Mexico... he has over 40 years experience with Off-Grid AND fighting the government. He was FINALLY (years years years) given permission by being forced into creating a development with roads, sewage, power infrastructure that THEY DO NOT USE.
IT'S ALL ABOUT MONEY... and, rightly so... communities MUST know about zoning and property tax 'earnings' so they can provide for the citizenry... so we all 'get it'... but GROWTH and change are what we ALL need... allover the planet.
Kudos to Darin. I'm sad his relationship/marriage didn't survive thru his travels... glad he met a 100 year old woman that reminded him she didn't need a man so he doesn't NEED a woman. After the fire and destruction of his home he is STILL living there, still sequestered, still alone... yet he knows he has love in his life, friendships, connection.
Happy to have listened to this podcast. Thanks, Rich.
Just got a shipment of the Barukas - Canadian fan. Thanks for your passion.
For skin and body care products I have been using the EWG site for years now. It rates each product for toxicity and breaks down the ingredients into which are toxic and how they affect the health. It is at www.ewg.org/skindeep/. I must admit, I don't watch Netflix or television so I haven't heard about Down to Earth. I do watch things I am interested in on TH-cam on similar topics. I have been enjoying your podcast. I have been Vegan for the past 12 years and love it. This is a fascinating interview and I will be checking out Darin's podcast. Thank you!
Watched the whole show in like 2 days. I really enjoyed it. Hope there’s a season 2 coming. 😁
He somehow reminds me of Old Shatterhand in the old Winetoo movies 😂
Rich looks so fresh
Darin! Loved this conversation.
Been done read his book... super life is super legit 🤣
Thank you Rich! Love this!
Going to listen on my long run this AM!
I love listening to your podcasts xx
What a nice podcast!
Just 2 friends having a nice chat!
Loved this podcast... thank you 😊
TH-cam Ashton Kutcher on Hot Ones after this and tell me Darin isn’t an older Ashton lol. I feel like their brains and essence are freakishly aligned
The beginning of the water conversation left me suspicious but Darin clearly is a subject matter expert and I enjoyed learning from him.
Nice! New video! I will listen to this during my morning walk 😍
Hi Rich/Darin
I’m in the U.K.
Are you just looking out for Americans/Canadians.
We need you guy’s over here as well distributing your products etc.
I have tinnitus and 3am I put this on to take away the tinnitus sounds and drift back to sleep and 5:30 I’m writing to complain that I can’t buy your nuts.
Now that is nuts. Great info I’m now heading over to Netflix.
Your both absolutely brilliant.
Food is medicine
Just started reading your book Derin!
Super Life. Super conversation.
I'll probably actually check that show out now!
Let's see a show on how to empower those without wealth to be able to unplug from monopolies. What models exist out there now? Do they transplant or are they unique to the geographic and cultural milieu from which it emerged?
Going vegan is a great start. No, it's not hard. It's literally picking a different product in a supermarket.
Beautiful podcast. ❤️🌱
Ride the wave!! Enjoy :-)
Never to late for a person to change... miracles ♡
Just ordered some of those nuts, I wish they had some trail mix but it's all sold out!
Joining in not buying-using single use water bottles, would like to buy a small tent. Rich sleeps in a tent, should I find a canvas tent?? to avoid more 'plastic'...most popular and top rated are nylon.Also, jet fuel is so not green. What would your guest say about world travel...regarding jet fuel? please answer
@darinolien what you said at 1hour17 minuets I am with you 100%! If you watch dr. Steven Greer’s video on what is available for us when it comes to electricity and power in general, most people aren’t aware of clean energy that isn’t solar or wind powered. There is one that can power the entire universe that we can harness without ugly power lines and inflated power bills. I hope that you will check it out. I think most of the world population will stand behind this to get it implemented. I hope you will check it out. I definitely want to be part of it
Can we just take a second to appreciate Darin’s biceps please. Check out that cut! Are you mad! His physique is insane! I’m sure he’s nearing 50, I want to be bussing out muscles like that till I’m 100
Plant power
I think the reason why the show is so popular is because they made it with celebrity and it basically was a fluff on important issues. In my experience most people enjoy fluff material and conversation. When the content turns serious and more informative, people get uncomfortable and standoffish and simply shut it out. It’s sad, it just seems like people just want just enough knowledge to get by and live in the dark at the same time. I personally would have loved a more in-depth show that Darin wanted, a more scientific, in your face information based show. I love Darin, his whole vibe and knowledge and love of discovery. I did love the show, don’t get me wrong... I’m glad it brought attention to some very important issues. I hope the whole experience with Darin left an impact on all that was involved.
Earth Mamma Ignorance is bliss unfortunately! I’d they have to make an effort or change their habits, they’re not interested.
