    132. Author Audrea Lim Examines our Relationships to Land

    Audrea Lim is the author of Free the Land: How We Can Fight Poverty and Climate Chaos. The issues of climate change, gentrification, racial inequity, and corporate greed are often treated as unrelated issues, but Audrea argues that they all share a common root: the commodification of land. She not only looks at how the American system of private property ownership has been destructive, but also explores alternatives. Some of these include looking back to original Indigenous practices around land management and stewardship, while others look at models like community land trusts, public housing, and public parks. Audrea’s work looks at rural solutions in places like the Canadian tar sands as well as urban solutions in cities like New York and Minneapolis.

    130. Author Austin Frerick on the Barons that Control Our Food

    Author Austin Frerick's new book Barons: Money, Power, and the Corruption of America's Food Industry looks at seven sectors of the American food system, profiling the company that dominates each of those markets. Some are familiar names like Cargill, Wal-Mart, and Driscoll’s. Others are foreign companies or giant conglomerates that are hardly household names but which still exert massive control over how we eat. Perhaps the most surprising revelation in the book is just how much has changed and consolidated in the last two decades. A native of Iowa, Austin also shares personal anecdotes throughout the book of how he has seen the landscapes and towns of his childhood shaped by the consolidation of our food markets. Austin has advised candidates Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders, and Pete Buttigieg on agricultural policy before ultimately serving as Co-Chair of the Biden campaign’s Agriculture Antitrust Policy Committee. He is a Fellow of the Thurman Arnold Project at Yale University, an initiative that brings together faculty, students, and scholars to collaborate on research related to competition policy and antitrust enforcement. He also serves on the Board of Directors for Common Good Iowa as Vice President and the Socially Responsible Agriculture Project as Treasurer. In 2022, The Advocate named him a "Champion of Pride.” Get full access to Willoughby Hills at heathracela.substack.com/subscribe

    129. Author J.B. MacKinnon on Stopping Shopping

    J.B. MacKinnon is a Vancouver-based author, journalist, and professor. His book The Day the World Stops Shopping operates on a simple thesis: gaming out how society, economies, and our lives would change if consumer culture disappeared overnight. When the global pandemic shutdown happened in 2020, suddenly the thesis had a real world example. J.B. joins Heath to discuss intentional consumerism inspired by Indigenous people in the Kalahari and Amish Pennsylvanians, consuming quality over quantity, and the simple pleasures of eating seasonally. J.B. is also the author of books right in the bullseye of this podcast and newsletter, including The 100-Mile Diet: A Year of Local Eating and The Once and Future World: Nature As It Was, As It Is, As It Could Be.
