Every time a "faceless company" or diligent farmer selects the best strains of this years crop to select for planting next year you have witnessed genetic modification at the micro level - the carrot & banana today are vastly different & superior foods through this process. Same goes for all our domestic animals such as dogs, cats, cows etc [although some of those dog breeds aren't fit for purpose!]. The same goes for us as a species via being winnowed by disease & selected for by sexual selection.

The anti-GMO back to natural argument is being pushed by market forces eager to sell "natural" at a premium price to the gullible - all organisms today [& at all times in the past] are the result of genetic modification. Darwin rules.

I don`t think you are getting the essense of it. People in a lab attach a few "genes" from a poisonous crop to wheat for example so that wheat is not attacked by any parasites and stay heathy and flawless looking. This is what makes you ****ing sick and is toxic in a subtle way.

if you want to further monetize the pod you should sell the #1 lefort pod.
You already hyped it up for a year now and I wouldn't mind seeing it again.

About GMO: Most of the modifications are herbicide resistance and insectide resistance. For insectide resistance they're using BT toxin, which is found in bacteria Bacillus thuringiensis, and that toxin only is harmful to insects. If it was harmful to humans, we would have some disease related to that toxin prior to GM crops. Herbicides only attack mechanisms that are in plants. All this bull**** about GM crops is only business, because there is a lot of money involved - _Loki_ is right about that.

So much this.

It is amazing what a big deal "natural food" is as a marketing prop. Let's go to Costco and buy some basil to make some pesto. Pay a little extra for the GMO free label... hey wait a minute, do you know what's wrong with this picture?
Spoiler:
Nobody makes GMO basil, thus we're paying extra for words on the label.


My objection was to no-doubt sincere people offering health advice. Here are some great exercises Avoid meats. Not too much salt. Do way more veg. Oh, and by the way, GMO foods are terrible for your health. Mixed in with otherwise great advice from someone who sounds knowledgeable is some bogus Whole Foods marketing garbage. The scientific body-building and health crowd, right up to we hit their popular superstitions.

I really need to start having more people from the UK on the podcast (I've been studying my geography and am 60% confident to say UK= England/Scotland/Ireland/Wales?????) as the UK is the 2nd in terms of audience according to the analytics.

Completely correct, with the caveat that some of the Irish counties made a Catholic state in the south, so not all of Ireland is currently in the UK.
