When Feeding Your Neighbors Becomes Personal | Hannah Beall | Ep. 71
A family can be working, paying bills, and still not know how they’re going to afford groceries.That is one of the realities behind the work of Central Texas Food Bank. The people who need help include military families, college students, older adults, and parents trying to keep food on the table for their children. Their circumstances may be different, but the next meal still has to come from somewhere.Hannah Beall understands that uncertainty from both sides.Growing up, her family relied on food assistance. She remembers stretching ingredients, cooking meals, and waiting for a grocery checkout line where nobody would recognize her using a Lone Star Card. Her family needed help. Being seen needing it was something she wanted to avoid.Today, Hannah is the Garden Manager at Central Texas Food Bank, helping grow fresh produce for people facing circumstances she remembers.In the chair with Tab Salsman, she opens a window into an organization whose work reaches far beyond collecting canned goods. Through its network across 21 Central Texas counties, the food bank connects neighbors with groceries, rescues food that might otherwise be discarded, helps people navigate benefits, and teaches families how to turn available ingredients into meals.At its on-site market, people can choose food their families will actually eat. Fresh vegetables from Hannah’s farm can be harvested that morning and taken home that day. Cooking demonstrations help make an unfamiliar ingredient feel like something worth bringing into the kitchen.For someone who remembers the discomfort of asking for help, those details carry weight. Having choices. Being welcomed. Leaving with food you know how to prepare.Hannah’s childhood gives her a personal connection to the families this work supports—and to the difference that support could have made when she was younger. Growing food to give away lets her help people who are standing where she once stood.The conversation also brings the work within reach: volunteering, helping distribute groceries, spending a morning on the farm, or finding a nearby food resource for someone who needs it.How many people around us are struggling to buy food without ever saying a word?Central Texas Food Bank works to reach those neighbors. Hannah helps grow what they take home, carrying a memory of what it felt like to need it herself.FIND HANNAH & CENTRAL TEXAS FOOD BANKHannah Beall: https://www.instagram.com/hcfhannah/Central Texas Food Bank Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ctxfoodbank/Website: https://www.centraltexasfoodbank.org/Find food near you: https://www.centraltexasfoodbank.org/get-helpVolunteer: https://www.centraltexasfoodbank.org/get-involved/volunteerSPLITTING HAIRS WITH TAB SALSMANExplore the episodes: https://www.splittinghairspodcast.com/episodes/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/splittinghairspod/Contact: podcast@tabcutshair.comCHAPTERS00:00 Hunger in Central Texas00:43 Meet Hannah Beall02:12 The food bank's mission07:37 Serving 21 counties09:06 Who needs food assistance?12:11 Groceries with dignity15:14 Food rescue19:44 Cooking classes27:36 Community funding29:49 Chefs and fundraising34:00 Learning to cook37:51 Growing up on food assistance40:53 A 10-acre organic farm42:36 Growing food to give away43:01 Kids and food48:50 Finding meaningful work50:23 How to volunteer52:30 Food dates and waste55:16 Mobile food distributions56:43 Fresh Harvest Farm59:46 A community ripple effect1:00:41 Kids and volunteering1:05:33 Access to food assistance1:08:49 Families falling through cracks1:12:28 Find Food Now1:14:24 The Empty Bowl ProjectThe views expressed are those of the speakers and do not necessarily reflect those of their employers or affiliated organizations.

No Backup Plan | Bill Schultz on The Simpsons, Bobby's World, and a Life in Animation
Bill Schultz turned down law school, got in a car with his girlfriend—now his wife—and moved to Los Angeles in 1982. There was no backup plan. He was going to make a life in entertainment, even if the route changed along the way.That willingness to course-correct took him from chasing work as a songwriter and screenwriter to discovering the role that fit him best: producer. A job in Capitol Records’ royalty department led to production-assistant work, and a sudden opening on a low-budget film taught him a lesson that kept paying off—sometimes the way forward is simply to say yes, then learn how to do the job.While Tab cuts his hair, the four-time Emmy-winning producer explains what a producer actually does, why the best ones tend to be control freaks, and how seeing every dollar and every department on a production helped him understand the entire machine.From there, the conversation moves through the shows and characters that shaped a generation. Bill talks about helping build Bobby’s World around Howie Mandel’s unmistakable creative voice, supporting the artists behind The Simpsons, and protecting what makes a creator’s idea feel authentic when it passes through a studio.His career also reaches into G.I. Joe, Transformers, Muppet Babies, Garfield & Friends, King of the Hill, Ed, Edd n Eddy, Clifford the Big Red Dog, and decades of creator-driven animation.Bill and Tab get into persistence, creative ownership, the difference between manufacturing content and staying true to its source, and why audiences can sense when the people making something genuinely believe in it.This is a conversation about betting on yourself, changing direction without giving up, and building a life in animation one opportunity at a time.FIND BILL SCHULTZIMDb: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0776202/Home Plate Entertainment: https://www.homeplateentertainment.com/FOLLOW TAB SALSMANInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/tabcutshair/Splitting Hairs Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/splittinghairspod/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@tabcutshair/podcastsWatch, listen, and explore more episodes: https://www.splittinghairspodcast.com/

What Is Homeopathy? PANS/PANDAS, Symptoms and Root Cause Medicine | Erin Paige
Erin Paige, HHP, is a homeopath and host of The Remedy Revolution Podcast. Her path into homeopathy began after her young son developed a series of neurological and behavioral symptoms that eventually led to a PANDAS diagnosis.In this episode, Erin explains what homeopathy is, how remedies are selected, and how the practice differs from conventional and holistic medicine. We discuss individualized care, the immune system, symptom suppression, common remedies, and the history of homeopathy in the United States.Erin also shares the experience that changed the direction of her life. Her son began experiencing tics, personality changes, pain, episodes in which he appeared unreachable, violent rages, and an increasing unwillingness to leave home. After years of searching for answers, Erin tried homeopathy. That experience eventually led her to study the practice and begin working with families navigating PANS/PANDAS, autism, mental health challenges, and other complex conditions.What begins as a conversation about tiny sugar pellets becomes a larger question: What if some of the symptoms we continually try to eliminate contain useful information about what the body is trying to do?Whether you already use remedies such as Arnica or Oscillococcinum or have never heard of homeopathy, this conversation offers an introduction to a form of care centered on understanding the individual rather than relying on a diagnosis alone.CHAPTERS00:00 Meet Erin Paige03:16 What Is Homeopathy?06:30 How Homeopathic Remedies Work11:40 The Royal Family and Homeopathy13:30 Rockefeller, the AMA and the History of Homeopathy21:00 Healthcare and “Sick Care”24:10 Autism and Profound Autism28:15 The Illness That Changed Erin’s Son32:15 What Are PANS and PANDAS?38:00 When Her Son’s Symptoms Became Severe41:30 The Homeopathic Remedy That Changed Everything48:00 Nonverbal Autism and Spelling to Communicate53:30 How Homeopathic Remedies Are Made56:30 Arnica, Oscillococcinum and Common Remedies1:01:00 Why Symptoms Are Not Always the Enemy1:06:30 Why More People Are Exploring Homeopathy1:09:00 Chronic Conditions and Mental Health1:13:30 Treating the Person, Not Only the Diagnosis1:18:00 What a Homeopathic Appointment Looks Like1:22:00 Finding the Right Homeopath1:25:00 Homeopathy as a First Line of DefenseFIND ERIN PAIGEPre-order Erin’s bookhttps://www.amazon.com/Hell-Healed-Roadmap-Parents-Patients/dp/1648212832The Remedy Revolution Podcasthttps://www.theremedyrevolution.com/Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/remedyrevolutionpodcast/Heartwing Healinghttps://heartwinghealing.com/FIND TAB SALSMANInstagramhttps://www.instagram.com/tabcutshair/Podcast Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/splittinghairspod/YouTubehttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCeoP1NNmqoeqaxvrMV5SnyQThis episode presents Erin Paige’s personal experiences and views for informational purposes.

Breast Implant Illness: What Dr. Rob Whitfield Found in Explant Patients
In 2016, a patient asked plastic surgeon Dr. Rob Whitfield to remove her breast reconstruction and let her go flat. Rob says routine testing of tissue from her surgery found an E. coli infection. After treatment, he says, her fatigue resolved. It was one case, not an answer for everyone. But it changed the questions he began asking of patients who came to him for explant surgery.Rob spent years reconstructing patients after cancer. Breast implants are often the most accessible option, though his training also taught him to rebuild a breast using a patient's own tissue. He does not argue that implants should simply disappear. He wants patients to understand their options and the possible trade-offs. Tab brings him questions he has heard behind the chair: Could an implant cause inflammation? Is that like organ rejection? If someone feels unwell, what can a surgeon actually see or test? Rob explains why an implant and a transplanted organ do not provoke the same response.Rob describes an analysis of 694 scar-tissue samples, 203 of which returned positive microbiological findings. He and Tab discuss what those results may suggest, what they cannot prove, and why patients with similar implants may have different outcomes. Tab presses him on whether common blood tests can answer every patient's question. Rob also describes his efforts to track inflammation in patients following his program, and the limits of that work without a control group.The conversation moves from the textured-implant recall and Rob's 2019 FDA testimony to sleep, nutrition, and the emotional weight of explant surgery. Tab shares his mother's difficult recovery and asks what informed consent should sound like when a patient is weighing reconstruction, implants, or removal. Rob explains the preparation and follow-up built into his S.H.A.R.P. program, and why the decision belongs to the patient.Rob's medical observations and recommendations are his own; this conversation is not personal medical advice.CHAPTERS00:00 Meet Dr. Rob Whitfield04:25 From cancer reconstruction to plastic surgery09:23 Can breast implants cause inflammation?13:22 Implants, autoimmunity, and organ rejection18:46 Why breast implants are used in reconstruction20:29 Implant safety and informed consent24:29 Why every body responds differently26:15 Genetics, detoxification, and environmental toxins29:18 What toxins are we being exposed to?31:03 Nutrition and preparing the body to recover33:38 Why sleep matters for healing45:30 Women and undiagnosed sleep problems48:00 Preparing patients before surgery57:25 Inside Dr. Whitfield's recovery process58:38 What inflammation actually looks like1:08:00 The patient who changed Dr. Whitfield's direction1:13:28 Breast implant illness and medical censorship1:17:14 Dr. Whitfield's FDA testimony1:20:37 Detoxification after explant surgery1:23:38 The S.H.A.R.P.

65 | Dr. Andrew Wakefield Gets a Haircut: What Happens When You Question the System
Few figures in modern medicine have generated as much controversy as Dr. Andrew Wakefield.A former physician and researcher who published more than 150 scientific papers, Wakefield lost his career, fellowships, and medical license while pursuing questions surrounding childhood vaccines, intestinal inflammation, and neurological injury in children.In this episode, Wakefield shares how parents first brought him stories they believed no one was willing to hear, what happened when his research collided with powerful institutions, and how he went from physician to filmmaker and author after years of public scrutiny and professional consequences.We discuss autism, chronic illness, scientific dissent, censorship, media narratives, pharmaceutical liability, public trust, and the responsibilities that come with asking difficult questions. We also discuss his upcoming novel The Bequest(releasing June 26, 2026), and the deeply personal question that helped inspire it: what happens to children with autism when their parents are gone?Whether you agree with him, disagree with him, or simply want to understand one of the most polarizing figures in modern medicine, this conversation offers a rare opportunity to hear the story directly from the man at the center of it.Welcome to Splitting Hairs with Tab Salsman, the live video podcast where captivating conversations happen behind the chair.
