  • Fascinating Series. Highly enjoyed!

    It figures that just when I find this pod, it has long seen it’s last days. I really loved the stories and format. The journalistic/documentary styling is well crafted. I still listen to repeats, particularly the history-of timeline.

  • Outstanding research.

    It is easy to think of vegetarianism as a 20th Century trend, or more precisely, something particularly rooted in the Aquarian Age and later. In this podcast, Mr. McDonald winds his way through the long history of abstention from animal products, the motivations of early vegetarians, interviewing many interesting people on the way. more
