Our 85th show features an interview with Karen Davis of United Poultry Concerns. Karen is an expert on everything having to do with chickens, turkeys and other birds that people eat. Karen runs a sanctuary in Maryland where she houses hundreds of rescued birds, and also has recently come out with a revised edition of her classic book on the subject Prisoned Chickens Poisoned Eggs: An Inside Look at the Modern Poultry Industry. Karen gives us some insight into birds and the agribusiness that treats them like garbage. Scott updates us with news about Diabetes, sleep and brain power, and the latest meat recalls and mishaps.
