In this episode we talked about how the “paleo diet” as it is called today is more akin to the “original permaculture diet” then we may think.  If you were to time travel back to 10,000 BC and beyond what we think of as “agriculture” today all humans relied a lot on animal protein and fat.  Even more recently until only a few hundred years ago so did the majority of the world’s population. The original show was titled Episode-773- Paleoculture the Original Permaculture and was first published on 10-8-2011. Resources for today’s show-… Find Me on Nostr Follow Me … Continue reading →

The earliest known use of the saying, “may you live in interesting times” is from the early 20th century. A 1936 speech by Sir Austen Chamberlain (brother of Neville Chamberlain) is often cited.
