Hey Pickles!

This week's episode is coming to you from the path of totality! Did you see the solar eclipse? We had cloud cover so only got to experience the darkness, then saw some of the end of the eclipse. It was fascinating regardless!

This week we're reviewing the documentary, The Smell of Money. This film takes you to North Carolina where the fight against Smithfield hog "farming" operations are poisoning the people who live near these horrific facilities.

The documentary follows the lives and struggles of several residents as they take Smithfield to court in an attempt to stop the poisoning of their land, water and the air that they breathe.

We highly recommend that you watch this film for yourself, and share it with anyone you know that consumes animals. so that they can better understand the human cost of supporting the animal farming industry.
Here is a link to the film. You will have to rent it.  https://youtu.be/-qYiDKkV5Dg?si=oU3d2hyXvTmn0cxw
