Food is one of the most universal and essential parts of human life. From gourmet steaks to the everyday, humble, packet of crisps, food consumption is everywhere. But what do we actually know about how our food is grown? How is it processed? And how does it ends up on our supermarket shelves or in our restaurants and takeaways? While we may look back and think traditional food customs are more often in harmony with the natural environment, most of us today rely on a complex global food web of production, distribution, consumption and disposal. But how does it work, and what can philosophy say about food? Joining our discussion on food philosophy today is philosopher Julian Baggini. Baggini is an expert in popular philosophy with Sunday Times best-selling books such as How the World Thinks, How to Think Like a Philosopher and The Pig That Wants to be Eaten. He has served as the academic director of the Royal Institute of philosophy and is a member of the Food Ethics Council. He has written for The Guardian, the Times Literary Supplement, the Financial Times, and Prospect Magazine, as well as a plethora of academic journals and think tanks. In his wide-ranging and definitive new book, How the World Eats, Baggini argues that the need for a better understanding of how we feed ourselves has never been more urgent. Baggini delves into the best and worst food practises around the world in a huge array of different societies, past and present-exploring cutting edge technologies, the ethics and health of ultra processed food and the effectiveness of our food governance. His goal: to extract a food philosophy of essential principles, on which to build a food system fit for the 21st century and beyond. What is that food philosophy? Let's tuck in, and find out.

One man alone on a planet of death. — A deadly robot made especially to pursue a human being. Was it just a cruel sport devised for some bloodthirsty pleasure? Built to Kill, Programmed to Chase—The Ultimate Predator Has No Mercy. Man-Hunting Robot by James Rosenquest. That's next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.Today's featured author is James Rosenquest—and no, not James Rosenquist, the famous American pop artist. When you search for our James Rosenquest online, Google will try to convince you that you meant the other guy. But we're here to shine a light on the lesser-known Rosenquest—the science fiction writer.So what do we know about him? Honestly, not a whole lot. He published just five sci-fi stories in 1959 and one more in 1960—and then disappeared from the literary scene. That's the entirety of his known work.

Alone in a world buried by endless snow and ice the last man on Earth drifts through a twilight of silence and memory. Time has lost all meaning... The Coming of the Ice by G. Peyton Wertenbaker. That's next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.The year was 1926 and although there had been science fiction stories in magazines, there had never been an entire magazine devoted to science fiction. Hugo Gernsback was the man who would change the course of science fiction with the birth of Amazing Stories magazine which began publishing in April 1926. In case you were wondering the Hugo Award is named after this sci-fi pioneer. The first two magazines were filled with reprints, stories that had already been published, by Jules Verne, H. G. Wells and Edgar Allen Poe among others. G. Peyton Wertenbaker's short story The Man From the Atom appeared in that first issue but it too was a reprint, having been previously published 8 months earlier in Science and Invention magazine which was also published by Gernsback.Wertenbaker was born in New Castle, Delaware in 1907, he wrote a handful of sci-fi stories and then turned his attention to other pursuits, literary and otherwise. He served on the editorial board of Fortune magazine from 1933 to 1938, and became a contributing editor to Time Magazine in 1939. During World War Two he served as an air combat intelligence officer in the Pacific. In 1958 he joined NASA as a speechwriter, eventually becoming chief historian of the Aerospace Medical Division. The story you are about to hear was the first original paid story to appear in Amazing Stories in June 1926 on page 232, The Coming of the Ice by G.

It's Monday, March 31st, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 125 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Christian pastor's body found after he described recent death threats Pastor Praveen Pagadala, a renowned Christian evangelist and apologist, has been found dead under suspicious circumstances in the south Indian state of Andhra Pradesh, weeks after expressing concerns for his safety, reports The Christian Post. The 46-year-old pastor, who is survived by his wife and two young children, was traveling from Hyderabad to Rajahmundry when he was discovered lifeless along a roadside in the early hours of the morning last Tuesday. Reports indicate that he had recently shared concerns about threats to his life, particularly stemming from his outspoken defense of Christianity and criticism of other religions, according to Open Doors UK, which noted that he had attended a prayer meeting the day before his sudden death. It's our prayer at The Worldview that this sobering story, and others like it, will motivate you to make every day count for God, living each one as though it were your last. Psalm 90:12 states, "Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom."  Appeals court rules DOGE can continue operating at USAID A federal appeals court on Friday granted the Trump administration's motion to extend a stay allowing the Department of Government Efficiency to continue operating at the United States Agency for International Development, reports Fox News. That's great news since DOGE has already saved the taxpayers $130 billion which is $807.45 per taxpayer. Appearing on Fox News, Daniel Cameron, a Republican candidate for U.S. Senate in Kentucky, was thrilled. CAMERON: “It is a fantastic win for the Trump administration and their perseverance! “Unconventional doesn't necessarily mean unconstitutional. USAID has become a haven for the radical Left. We want to see a president that is cutting waste, fraud and abuse. “As a conservative, we've been talking about this for 30 years. Ronald Reagan started it, and Donald Trump is going to get the job done.” Last week, U.S. District Judge Theodore Chuang, a federal judge in Maryland appointed by Democrat Barack Obama, ruled that efforts by the Department of Government Efficiency to halt USAID functions were likely unconstitutional, ordering its reinstatement. Thankfully, last Tuesday, a federal appeals court in Richmond, Virginia issued a stay, temporarily blocking the judge's order that prohibited DOGE from working with USAID. 2,000 young people in Illinois Pro-Life March Last Tuesday, March 25th, 2,000 pro-lifers – primarily teenagers and young adults – walked down the streets of Springfield, Illinois in the Illinois Pro-Life March, reports LifeSiteNews.com.  Unlike the dozen scowling pro-abortion protestors, who promoted abortion as so-called “healthcare” at the corner of Capitol Avenue and Second Street, the pro-life young people were cheering, dancing, singing, smiling, laughing, and praying. Oceana Huang, a freshman at Sacred Heart-Griffin High School, was enthusiastic. HUANG: “I came out here because I think it's important to give a voice to the voiceless. And I love seeing loads of people come together for a common cause.” Proverbs 31:8 says, “Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves, for the rights of all who are destitute.” MALE PRO-LIFE MARCHER: “I feel like that, as a community, we should help these unborn children have a life.” Ella Timmermann, a junior at Sacred Heart-Griffin High School, spoke to God's plans. TIMMERMAN: “I firmly believe that everybody should have a chance to grow up into the blessings that God has given us, and I believe that God sets us out for a purpose into the world.” Ephesians 2:10 says, “For we are God's handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.” MALE PRO-LIFE MARCHER: “I came out here today because life's important. Once we forget about the importance of the sanctity of human life, we forget about the sanctity of every moral aspect of our life.” Hummingbird chicks observed pretending to be caterpillars to avoid being eaten And finally, when Jay Falk and Scott Taylor first saw the white-necked Jacobin hummingbird chick in Panama's dense rainforest, the biologists did not know what they were looking at, reports the GoodNewsNetwork.org. The day-old bird, smaller than a pinky finger, had brown fuzz all over its body. When Falk and Taylor walked closer to the nest, the chick began twitching and shaking its head—a behavior they had never seen in birds before. It turns out the hummingbird might fend off predators by mimicking a poisonous caterpillar that lives in the same region. In a new paper published March 17 in Ecology, Taylor, an associate professor at the University of Colorado Boulder, described this unusual mimicry behavior found for the first time in hummingbirds. TAYLOR: “When we looked at the nest and saw how strange this baby hummingbird looked, we thought this looks exactly like a caterpillar. So, some caterpillars cover themselves with urticating hairs, which, when touched, they can be really painful and even cause nausea in humans. When the white-necked Jacobin chick hatched, we noticed that its long, fluffy down feathers could make it look dangerous to predators, just like these caterpillars. “Tropical forests are filled with mysteries and discoveries waiting to happen. Our findings show that every detail can reveal something extraordinary.” Scientists refer to this survival strategy of mimicking a harmful species as Batesian mimicry. For example, some non-venomous milk snakes have developed a pattern of red, yellow and black coloring similar to that of venomous coral snakes to ward off predators. Taylor said, “A lot of these really classic examples of Batesian mimicry involve butterflies mimicking other butterflies, or snakes mimicking other snakes. But here, we have a bird potentially mimicking an insect, a vertebrate mimicking an invertebrate.” Well, Answers in Genesis, the creation science group known for its Ark Encounter in Kentucky, said, “The origin of mimicry has always been troublesome for evolutionary dogma. Mimicry occurs in numerous groups of animals and provides a benefit to at least the mimic. However, according to many evolutionists, such as Richard Dawkins, evolution is merely a string of unordered events with ‘no purpose in mind.' Given Dawkins' belief system, mimicry is indeed a significant problem for the evolutionists.” Job 12:7-10 says, “But now ask the beasts, and they will teach you; and the birds of the air, and they will tell you; or speak to the Earth, and it will teach you; and the fish of the sea will explain to you. Who among all these does not know that the hand of the Lord has done this, in whose hand is the life of every living thing, and the breath of all mankind?” Including the white-necked Jacobin hummingbird chick!

Finding a cause worth dying for is no great trick—the Universe is full of them. Finding one worth living for is the genuine problem! Orphans of the Void by Michael Shaara. That's next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.How many vintage science fiction authors won a Pulitzer Prize? Ray Bradbury never won a Pulitzer Prize for Fiction, but received a Pulitzer Special Citation in 2007 for his impact on literature. The answer is three. Booth Tarkington, MacKinlay Kantor and Michael Shaara. Booth Tarkington is one of only four novelists to win the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction more than once, along with William Faulkner, John Updike, and Colson Whitehead. Tarkington wrote only three short sci-fi stories. MacKinlay Kantor wrote eight short sci-fi stories and one science fiction novel If the South Had Won the Civil War released in 1961.Michael Shaara is the most well known of the three. Shaara was born in Jersey City, New Jersey in 1928. Before he began selling sci-fi for 2 cents a word in the 1950s he was a boxer and a police officer. He won his Pulitzer for his novel about the Battle of Gettysburg, The Killer Angels which won the award in 1975, and was showcased on the big screen in the 1993 movie Gettysburg starring Tom Berenger and Martin Sheen.Shaara also wrote the 1991 novel For Love of the Game which was made into the 1999 film with the same name starring Kevin Costner and Kelly Preston. But it all began back in 1952. He wrote two dozen short sci-fi stories and this was his first. From Galaxy Science Fiction in June 1952, we will discover this tale of artificial intelligence, and the fate of a forgotten world on page 78, Orphans of the Void by Michael Shaara...Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, Renwick, with too much time on his hands, was bored.

A tale of dark science, and the ghastly mystery that enveloped the Spanish doctor's attempts at artificial refrigeration. Cool Air by H. P. Lovecraft. That's next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.The story of H. P. Lovecraft is a sad story. He lived a life marked by poverty, and personal loss. His early years were overshadowed by his father's descent into madness, which led to his institutionalization and death. His mother, similarly afflicted with mental illness, was overprotective and instilled in him a sense of fragility and isolation.As a child, Lovecraft was a prodigy, reading and writing at an early age, but frequent illnesses and nervous conditions kept him from completing high school. He lived with his controlling mother and struggled throughout his life with self-doubt.His writing, though prolific, was largely unrecognized during his lifetime, and he was forced to become a ghostwriter just to scrape by.Lovecraft was diagnosed with cancer and was virtually unknown at the time of his death at the age of 46, and though he never achieved fame or financial success in life, his influence on horror and science fiction remains unparalleled.Today's story was published two years after Lovecraft died and appears in the September 1939 issue of Weird Tales Magazine on page 95, Cool Air by H. P. Lovecraft…Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, An Earthman and Earthwoman are hurled through worlds within worlds by a diabolical weapon!

And even though Spotify doesn't allow reviews you can give us 5 stars on Spotify, where we currently enjoy a 4.9 rating.Thanks for everything you do to support our podcast.Another podcast and another author makes his debut. Charles Dye was born in San Fernando, California, in 1925. His first published story, The Last Orbit, appeared in the February 1950 issue of Amazing Stories. He is credited with having written seventeen short stories and one novel. One of the stories Charles Dye is known for wasn't actually written by him. If you open Planet Stories magazine from July 1952, you'll find The Man Who Staked the Stars credited to Dye. However, the story was actually written by Katherine MacLean, who was briefly married to him. The reason MacLean gave Dye credit remains unknown.By the way, The Man Who Staked the Stars is a novella—a work of fiction longer than a short story but shorter than a full-length novel, typically ranging from 17,500 to 40,000 words, according to the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers Association.Let's peel back the pages of Future combined with Science Fiction Stories in July 1951 to page 59, Momentum by Charles Dye…Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, I don't normally do this but the story you will hear next on the podcast is one of my favorites, The last living man on a world rendered utterly lifeless by all–consuming fire– how could he start life alone?

That's next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.Noel Loomis was born in Wakita, Oklahoma Territory in 1905, two years before it became a state. And if Wakita Oklahoma rings a bell it might be because it was one of the filming locations for the motion picture blockbuster Twister. This tiny town near the Oklahoma border with Kansas had less than 400 people when Loomis was born and only around 300 today.Although he wrote science fiction Loomis is best known for his Westerns. He won the Spur award for Best Western Novel in 1958 for Short Cut to Red River. He won the award again the next year for a short story, Grandfather Out of the Past.Noel Loomis penned two science fiction novels and about 30 science fiction short stories.

Two bitter rival scientists are locked in a feud that consumes their lives, but nature has a strange way of taking sides.

That's next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.If today's story sounds familiar but you're scratching your head thinking, I thought it was called The Moth, you're right. It was not uncommon for stories to have more than one title in the early days of science fiction. When a story was reprinted in a different magazine, anthology, or even in another country, the editor or publisher sometimes altered the title to better fit the publication's style or market.Whether you know it as The Moth or A Moth it's still the same story and a very good one regardless of the title.

Silently it waited in a woodland glen, baited with dreams to tempt… the strange lost company that time had forgot. The Elf-Trap by Francis Stevens. That's next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.There's a good chance you've never heard of Francis Stevens. But after today's story you will probably never forget her. She has been called “the woman who invented dark fantasy.” She was born Gertrude Mabel Barrows in Minneapolis Minnesota in 1883. Some say her middle name was Myrtle instead of Mabel but since the state of Minnesota and the county where she was born don't have birth records going back that far we will never know.She wrote her first short story at age 17, a science fiction story titled The Curious Experience of Thomas Dunbar. She mailed the story to Argosy. The story was accepted and published in the March 1904 issue, listing the author as "G. M. Barrows”. Although the initials disguised her gender, this appears to be the first instance of an American female author publishing science fiction, and using her real name. She had only seven short stories published and wrote five novels, with just two released during her lifetime.

He grew up in Brooklyn, served in the Army during World War II, and later spent 22 years as a professor at Penn State University.Klass wrote over 60 short stories, beginning in 1946 with Alexander the Bait, which appeared in Astounding Science Fiction.
