In this week's podcast, Nic and Steve talk about the Vagus Nerve and discuss if it is your brain or your gut calling the shots? From unraveling the secrets of gut-brain communication to deciphering the language of "Stinking Thinking," Nic and Steve dive into the weird and wonderful world of Vagal stimulation. Join the fun as they navigate the bizarre landscape of Vagus Nerve disorders, stress, and the power of positive gut vibes!
