    Do We Ask the Organic System to Do Too Much?

    Atlantic staff writer Annie Lowrey talks to Mark and Kate about her recent piece, "The Truth About Organic Milk," which details how cows are suffering on even the most humane dairy farms; why raising cows in herds on pasture isn't always enough; the pros and cons of being so strict about antibiotics; and yet, although organic farms aren’t perfect, they’re still way better than “conventional” (i.e. industrial) farms.

Love the podcast! Thank you! Any chance for an episode with Gabrielle Hamilton? 😬

Fine but too many ads

These conversations are interesting and it would probably be a 3.5 star rating if not for the sheer volume of ads. The episodes are like 1/3 ads. It’s ridiculous.
