The Joe Rogan Experience · #2529 - Zach Bush · 22 Jul 2026 podcast

And so I grew up in government housing in Colorado.

In 1973, the Vietnam War was just ending, and a bunch of the Hmong people of Cambodia were displaced because of Agent Orange, a chemical that is immediately a cousin to glyphosate, the chemical we're going to talk about.

They're the same class.

They're both organophosphate molecules.

And so I'll get into that story a little later.

But nonetheless, this peoples of the Hmong were displaced because we dumped it all over Cambodia, North Vietnam to make bare the Ho Chi Minh Trail so we could, from the air, see our enemy and kill more people.

We turned an entire jungle system into a complete moonscape, not a single living life form left after 25 years of Agent Orange.

No, it is fully recovered because biology has been allowed to return.

We created so much disease in that place that humans were displaced.

As soon as humans step out of there, the kind of extractive relationship, nature rushes back.

There's no such thing as a permanent chemical.

Forever chemicals?

Forever chemicals are measured without life.

If you put biology back in a system, it will heal itself, period.

And that's my promise to humanity that everything is perfect.

The stress that we're putting on this planet right now with these herbicides, pesticides, antibiotics, everything we're doing right now, I want to keep this in the context of everything is perfect.

I'm going to keep drawing this home until we get there.

But it's going to be an interesting journey because first we have to look at how much suffering have we created first to understand then why would we create suffering and why would that be perfect.

But we'll get there.

But I think we need to back up to people's lived experience right now.
