RICE CAKES AND PEARS

Zach Barber

What’s up, I’m Zach, and I was on a diet of rice and pears for 8 whole years! I have an incurable disease (Eosinophilic Esophagitis) that really isolated me from everyone else. For so long, I tried to fit in with those around me. Then one day, I realized my true identity... I am a weirdo. Rice Cakes and Pears provides a platform where weirdos can shine! A space that welcomes unique stories/perspec... more

  • Perfect awareness!

    There’s more sides to life that our education systems do not touch up on. That our society is unaware about. Zack has a wonderful podcast. Very insightful to listen to. After all, the greatest weapon is experience. People sharing their stories is what we need. Thanks to all of you, people feel less alone.

  • Authentic

    Often times when I scroll through social media or watch/read about “successful” people, I feel like my life needs to be this perfect way or else I’m not doing it right. It brings unnecessary stress into my life and it makes me not feel like… me. I’ve known Zach for a long time and the way he lives his life and now listening to his podcast, it helps me understand even more that life isn’t fair. Not all of us will get what we want, but all of our experiences that we have are gonna elevate and help... more

  • One of the most genuine dudes I’ve ever spoke to.

    Zach had me on the podcast a few months ago, and we had one of the most open and genuine conversations. His willingness to hear other people talk about their stories on the show and his ability to just vibe with the people he has on is so endearing. He’s a dope person with a genuine personality and awesome attitude towards life, even though he got dealt a bad hand or two himself. Gotta love the guy.
