Such a well put together podcast the episodes and storytelling each follow an arc and stand alone but I can’t wait to relisten to the full series back to back. The choice of interviewees perfectly layers the story with depth and breadth and I’ve learned a lot literally about pepper and it’s cultivation as well as broad, insightful prompts to think critically about food, trade, systems and global relations (and the people and families these comprise!)
Anna is a thoughtful and engaging storyteller. Interviews were interesting and packed with information! Lots to chew on and consider without feeling overwhelmed.
