EP 113. ARTIFICIAL MEAT

By the time you’re old, the idea of eating a burger that was sliced off the body of a dead cow may seem as antiquated as using a whale’s fat to light your home. That’s the hope of Paul Shapiro, whose new bestselling book, Clean Meat: How Growing Meat Without Animals Will Revolutionize Dinner and the World, is a wild dive into the scientific and moral promise of lab-grown meat. Will vegans be chomping on burgers? Will chickens no longer have brains? Paul is the founder of Compassion Over Killing and the former VP & Spokesperson of the Humane Society of the United States. Join him and Josh as they wrestle with the big questions of animal welfare, ethics, biology... and the food revolution that’s coming.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
