Today’s episode starts with a new member joining the podcast: Cass’s glucose monitor. It’s helpful, it’s important and it has the impeccable timing of a smoke alarm detecting burnt toast at 2:07 a.m.

Naturally, we did what any responsible hosts would do - we named it.

1. Beepy McSleepy
2. The Snooze Snitch
3. 3AM Screamy
4. The Pillow Police

Because apparently the only crime Cass committed was sleeping on her side, and this tiny electronic narc refuses to let that slide.

Then we chat through snacks that won’t send blood sugar to the sky.

The good news? The snacks that are great for Cass are actually great for everyone:

Workday Snack MVPs

1. Nuts like almonds or pistachios
2. String cheese or cottage cheese
3. Apples with peanut butter
4. Hummus with carrots, cucumbers, or bell peppers
5. Roasted chickpeas or edamame

Basically the rule is: protein, fiber, and real food - things that keep you full instead.

So today we learned two important things:

1. Cass’s glucose monitor is extremely dramatic.
2. And the snacks that help keep her healthy are actually the same snacks that make everyone’s workday better.

Also, we’re still accepting name submissions for the monitor because Beepy McSleepy currently has a suspicious lead!
