  • Just Say No

    I have really enjoyed this show until the latest episode and I have to comment. This is a gardening show. Describing the so called godly treatment of animals until you can kill them is disgusting. Trying to justify this as “the way things are” on a farm is so misguided. It is not the way things are . It is what you CHOSE it to be. Eat vegetables.

  • Awesome pod

    I do love this podcast! I’d give it 4.5 stars if possible but doesn’t quite get the 5 for me, I love the in-depth podcasts with experts on a particular topic but I’m less keen on the general chit chat episodes. I get their purpose, I still listen to them (have listened to every episode) but just don’t enjoy them as much as some of the more specific or scientific ones.
