[Patreon Preview] When Science Fails
A note from Caroline: Making this podcast is one of my favorite things. But right now, I have to put it on pause to attend to the other parts of my life that require my attention. After this, there will be one more episode. It's not just time commitments that are causing me to pause the podcast for now. In the process of researching these episodes, I've had many personal revelations and it's fair to say that my viewpoints have changed quite a bit. And that's what today's episode is about. It's about feeling failed by science, and by many of the powerful institutions that frame our lives. And about where I'm looking instead for wisdom.

The Truth About Wild Caught Salmon with Tara Hines

Today we have Tara Hines, who owns and operates a wild caught Alaskan Salmon business called Sockeye Servings. She and her crew catch salmon in the summer on her boats, and then she returns to Montana in the fall to sell her catch direct to consumer, and Captain Tara is here to answer all these questions and more.

[Patreon Preview] Should We Be Worried About Microplastics?
Maybe you’ve heard the news. Microplastics are on top of Mount Everest, the bottom of the ocean, in our blood, breastmilk, vital organs, and testicles. They are pervasive and the scope of their effect on our health is only just beginning to be understood. Today’s episode lays out what microplastics (and nanoplastics, goodie!) are, where they come from, and what the early science says (it’s not good). Also discussed: small, easy, meaningful actions we can take to minimize our exposure to microplastics in our daily life.

Inside the Conventional Chicken Industry with Esther Sprott
The commercial chicken industry is mysterious. It’s tightly controlled by the integrators - these are the companies that own and control the whole system - and it’s shrouded in NDA’s. We rarely get to hear from the actual farmers who raise the chicken. Until today! Esther Sprott, a regenerative and conventional farmer, joins us from Georgia where she and her family raise broiler chickens for a large integrator. Caroline asks Esther all of her burning chicken industry questions, and Esther answers with candor and grace.

Is Organic Really Better? with Robert Paarlberg

Everything you think you know about the dirty dozen, food subsidies, the cost of whole food vs processed…just set it to the side because he is here with the data and the nuance that we need to dig deeper. You will especially love his nuance about modern precision agriculture and how we need to stop conflating Big Food with Big Ag.
