My podcast today consists of personal observations regarding scenes in Al Jazeera's very important piece about deforestation and child labor in Ivoirian cocoa growing.  For maximum benefit, play the documentary in one window and the podcast in another.  My comments are keyed to playhead positions, so you'll want to play and pause and rewind the documentary.
