Vinnie and Anna interview the genius behind Sinastr, whose name we cannot reveal (because we don’t know it).

Michael Tortorich sums up the podcast in the My Uncle Vinnie Blog Wrap Up:

Vinnie leads off this episode talking about his epic day off. Later, Vinnie sets the record straight about his Oprah appearance. He agreed to participate in the “Where are they now” piece if they allowed him to mention this podcast and his book. Apparently, there was some sort of oversight, and all mention of the book and show ended up cut. I hope you’re sitting down…Vinnie gets quite angry over the whole deal. He calls out the usual suspects when it comes to ratings grabs, like Octomom and Dennis Rodman. Vinnie then mentions his involvement with The Tom Chenault Show. Later, they get Sinastr on the phone for a chat. Like Vinnie, Sinastr is also from Louisiana. Turns out, Sinastr saw himself in an unflattering light in a sex tape, and decided to make a change with his health. Weighing in at 270 pounds, he dropped all the way to 200. “You know how hard it is to lose one pound in southern Louisiana?” Vinnie asks. Why did Sinastr trust Vinnie? He didn’t have anything to sell.

Vinnie and Anna talk about leptin resistance and interview Lisa Froman, author of Tao Flashes.

Michael Tortorich sums up the podcast in the My Uncle Vinnie Blog Wrap Up:

A very special interview with the great Dean Lorey!

Michael Tortorich sums up the podcast in the My Uncle Vinnie Blog Wrap Up:

The man who is literally running Hollywood, Dean Lorey, is in studio. They start the show talking about Gay Andy coming over for Christmas, but Dean won’t be able to make it because he’ll be in Hawaii. Vinnie then receives a call from his girlfriend, Serena Scott Thomas, who is in the middle of Christmas shopping hell. Vinnie later talks about Dr. Oz, who he calls a walking, talking infomercial. The conversation then turns to Dean’s beard, which draws comparisons to comedian Brian Posehn. Vinnie and Dean tell the story of how they wrote the book together, including mood lighteners like Family Guy and Shakira, particularly, the “Hips Don’t Lie” video. They later talk about if a movie were made Vinnie would be played by Daniel Day Lewis and Dean by Paul Giamatti. They then compare their southern roots, as both Dean and Anna have lived in Georgia.

Vinnie & Anna talk to Mandy Ferrar (Caratunk Girl) and discuss 5K races and more benefits of No Sugars No Grains way of eating.

Vinnie and Anna discuss the mindless morning chat shows, flu shots, dehydration prevention (hint: it’s not what you think), how to gain lean muscle mass for men, and how to get rid of back pain. Waterlogged: The Serious Problem of Overhydration in Endurance Sports and Healing Back Pain: The Mind-Body Connection are recommended reading materials.

Vinnie and special guest Andy Schreiber discuss why Vinnie is the gayest straight man in Los Angeles.

Andy Schreiber’s Stuffed Almond Meal Crusted Salmon

Take nice thick salmon fillets, skinless, and cut a pocket in one side, about two-thirds the length, making sure not to cut through to the other side, and not to cut through to the ends.

In a bowl, combine finely chopped fresh baby-leaf spinach, crumbled whole-fat feta cheese, and sun-dried tomatoes, packed in olive oil, that have been coarsely chopped.  Mix it all together with your hands, and stuff the mixture into the pockets in the salmon.

Dip the stuffed salmon fillets first into a beaten whole egg, making sure it’s fully coated, and then into a shallow bowl of almond meal, again making sure to coat the fillets completely on all sides.  Place into a ceramic baking dish, and bake at 350 degrees for about 15 minutes

Vinnie fires a warning shot and states, “Hell hath no fury like an Italian man scorned.”  A chat with super fan Justin Ferrell and the low down on McDonald’s & Taco Bell’s new hijinks.
