Some of you know I'm injured and I need both hands to cook. What am I going to do? I got to eat. Well, that's where Factor comes in. Factor makes chef created, dietitian designed, ready to eat meals. You don't have to choose between real food and convenience. With over 175 banned ingredients, every Factor meal is designed around what supports a healthier lifestyle and nothing that doesn't. Factor meals are ready in two minutes and require no prep and no cleanup. So even on the days your schedule is completely out of control, eating well is still achievable. Every week you'll find 100 nutrient-dense menu items to choose from and new options like salmon burgers, shredded pork, collard greens and more. Yum, yum, give me some. Plus add-ons you'll crave like pumpkin-flavored cheesecakes and protein shakes. I'm adding that on for sure. 97% of users agree that factor meals help them live a healthier life, so you can feel confident that you're doing something good for yourself with every meal. Factor has been a lifesaver recently because, like I said, I'm injured and I can't use one of my hands to the best of my ability. I'm shattering eggs in my hand like someone I won't mention. I'm flinging food all over the place. I'm spilling. I'm knocking in the stuff. Factor makes it so that I can have a healthy meal prepared and ready to go, and I'm not making a big old mess or hurting myself anymore. Let's eat real. Head to factormeals.com/getplayed50off and use code getplayed50off to get 50% off and one free breakfast item per box for one year while supplies last until October 31st, 2026

Guys, I don't know if you guys have figured this out about yourselves, but you know how like there's like demo modes on like TVs and stuff at Best Buy? Yeah. I found my demo mode. I found my demo mode. It's like a switch in my mouth and I, and I figured like I pressed it and I went straight into demo mode.
Nick Wiger (3:23)

Heather Anne Campbell (3:25)
