Episode notes

Chef Chris: "My life goal is before I die, I want the majority of meat consumed on the planet to be free of slaughtering an animal and all the consequences that come with" The chef says it's going to take a while. Joshua had to go catch a flight, but his departure brought Sean and Mama Chitz to the moment we've all been waiting for. We don't want to distract from what's on top though. That's the salad underneath.

Happy New Year! Maybe you’re interested in trying new things? Sean and his mom are. In today’s episode, they drive to Alameda, California to try “hybrid meat” — a mixture of lab-grown meat and veggie meat substitute that could deliver a more sustainable (but still meaty) future.

This episode was produced by Miles Bryan, edited by Jolie Myers, fact-checked by Laura Bullard with help from Siona Peterous and Hady Mawajdeh, engineered by Efim Shapiro, and hosted by Sean Rameswaram.
