Taking the ‘die’ out of diet... At 42, Australian entrepreneur Joe Cross was 310 pounds and treating his weight-related ailments with a raft of prescription meds. Fed up one day, he chucked it all and decided to star in his own movie, FAT, SICK, AND NEARLY DEAD, chronicling his return to health in a cross-country U.S. road trip. Cross’ radical solution was a 60-day juice fast, using a Breville wired to the electrics of his car (sales of the juicer doubled after the film came out), and making fast food a simple matter of pulling over to a roadside fruit and veggie stand and flipping the onswitch. Along the way he asks the Yanks he meets in diners and truck stops about their food choices, letting them try his latest green concoction and always nudging them in the direction of health with his disarming Aussie friendliness. And shrink he does, radically, as his improving blood numbers allow him to shed the meds. A neat little coda to Joe’s story clocks in right at the halfway point, but back home in Sydney he gets a voicemail: A trucker he met on the road named Phil Staples, 429 pounds and slowly dying of the same autoimmune problems Joe had, calls desperate for Joe’s help. His story will put a lump in your throat. (And you’ll dust off that juicer.)—Richard Gould 10/24: Kelly Peterson Band 9:30pm. The Sleep-
