Episode #: 2006
Original Broadcast Date: 03/09/26
FULL SHOW RECAP: The mainstream press is finally running stories about chemicals in the food supply — which means the pressure from informed consumers has gotten loud enough that ignoring it stopped being an option. Elizabeth Covers that and the FDA’s latest attempt to redefine “ultra processed” on industry-friendly terms. Server’s Revenge puts a face on the people who know exactly what’s in your food and still can’t make rent. The Top 10 Fair Foods of 2026 remind us that America still knows how to fry something glorious and hand it to a stranger. The 15 Years segment returns to Terry Ingraham’s collapsing bee colonies and the pesticide science that proved him right after it was too late to matter. A corned beef deep dive asks what saltpeter is really doing in your St. Patrick’s Day pot. On the travel side, war and a polio alert are reshaping the map, the government shutdown is degrading every point of entry, ten historical artifacts hiding in plain sight prove the best destinations reward people who slow down, and Door County, Wisconsin closes the hour with a fire, a fish boil, and a sky full of stars.
