Episode notes

Anthropoe, the best thing about what i do is that i get to teach it. I love teaching my students. Love giving public talks. But i love being able to do so much science outreach and science communication on both human evolution and on food sustainability. And and call across cultural o issues and bioces. Like i hit all of these issues that to me, are so important with just this little topic of eating bugs. Tiny, di tiny, tiny, very tiny. Animal nothing. You're really great. This isis one of my favorite intervews. Thank you so much.

DO YOU CARE ABOUT THE APOCALYPSE? Okay cool. No matter what your diet, get this episode in your ears. Entomophagy Anthropologist Dr. Julie Lesnik -- an enthusiastic expert on bug eating -- breaks down the human past, present and future of insect cuisine for our surging population. If you're considering cutting back on meat, or if you're a vegan helping others explore more sustainable options, Dr. Lesnik will get you pumped as hell for changing mindsets. We talk about grasshopper tacos, ant omelettes, the nature of life, humane bug slaughter, water conservation, deep-fried scorpions, at-home mealworm farming, cricket chips, protein needs and the cultural biases that are literally killing us. Also: termite farts.
