  • No depth of substance

    I listen to both sides on a subject, especially when it comes to health. Dr Andrea Love is one I try to listen to so I can get convinced on not buying organic, and yet during her interview there was nothing. She makes broad statements, no details or stats or articles referenced. Telling me it is a hype of this movement to make $$, when we know Big Ag and Big Food does the exact thing you claim organic does….ummmm… not convincing me. Then the podcast on breast cancer, if you actually listen to th... more

Telling people that organic doesn’t matter but then being upset by trump gutting environmental protections is contrad... more

Q: How do you react to the news about Ebola containment and the Trump administration's posture?
