Podcasts about factory farming

If you want to change the world, how you spend your 80,000 working hours may be the most important decision you can make. Benjamin Todd, founder of 80,000 Hours, joins EconTalk's Russ Roberts to dismantle the career advice you've been fed since childhood. "Follow your passion" turns out to be a trap. Chasing a big paycheck barely moves the happiness needle. And being a doctor has a smaller impact than you might think, says Todd. Todd and Roberts wrestle with the real ingredients of a fulfilling career--engaging work, supportive colleagues, meaningful problems--while debating whether Jeff Bezos has lived a worthy life and why most people won't part with 10% of their income to save lives abroad. Along the way, you'll meet unsung heroes like David Nalin, whose solution to dehydration saves millions of children's lives.

In 2017, Wayne Hsiung and a crew of animal rights activists from Direct Action Everywhere broke into a Utah pig farm run by Smithfield Foods, one of the largest pork distributors in the world. They were there to capture video of what they say were thousands of mistreated and abused animals kept in tiny metal cages barely bigger than their bodies. As they were leaving, they took two sick piglets out with them. Prosecutors in Utah charged Wayne with burglary and theft. What came next was the court battle that he wanted all along. During his trial, Wayne made a truly bizarre argument that forced the jury, and all of us, to stare straight at our complicated, sometimes uncomfortable relationship with animals. This week on the show, we grapple with the impossible question at the center of it: What is the value of a piglet?  Special thanks to Kim Nederveen Pieterse, Nathan Peereboom, Jo Eidman, Sam Kozloff, Rachel Gross, Alex Allaux, and Joan Schaffner.  EPISODE CREDITS:  Reported by - Sindhu Gnanasambandan and Jae Minard Produced by - Sindhu Gnanasambandan with help from - Pat Walters with mixing help from - Jeremy Bloom Fact-checking by - Diane A.

The animal rights movement has found its big tent: everyone hates factory farming, right? In this solo rant, Mariann Sullivan ponders “anti-factory farming” as a unifying movement strategy — specifically, the inconvenient fact that being against something isn’t the same as having a plan to replace it. She also takes on a growing narrative that out-and-proud veganism is somehow the movement’s…

You ever wonder why you can't eat just one chip? Or why chicken tastes different than it did decades ago? In this episode, I break down how the food industry engineered salt, sugar and fat to hit your brain's “bliss point,” how fast food reshaped American farming, and why profit became more important than public health. From factory-raised chickens to feedlot beef to grocery store manipulation, we're unpacking how the system was built—and what you can actually do about it. Spoiler: it's not a willpower problem.

"Because we're kind of lowering the stakes. We're saying it's okay to admit to yourself that you care about factory farming and you care about animals because we're not going to try and trick you into going vegan or whatever. And so it allows them to engage with the issue, maybe for the first time in a really serious way. I think what we want to do is, just try and make it easier for more people to really engage with their values, and be an invitation to people to say, I know you care about this. I know when you see factory farming on you know, those annoying ads on your Instagram that show you what's going on, that you feel sad and you feel horrible about it. Let us help you do something about that in a way that fits your life and fits your lifestyle." – Thom Norman   Most of us agree that factory farming is one of the greatest sources of suffering on Earth. We hate it. We don't want to support it. And yet — it persists. Today's guest, Thom Norman, is trying to change that. He's the co-founder of FarmKind, an organization that's asking a radical question: What if we stopped making compassion so hard? Instead of telling people what not to eat, FarmKind is inviting everyone to help dismantle factory farming — not by guilt or purity tests, but through collective action. With their Compassion Calculator, just $23 a month has massive impact for animals. It's simple, inclusive, and it's working. In this conversation, Thom and I talk about how factory farming got so bad, why lifestyle change alone isn't enough, and how shifting from shame to solidarity could open the biggest door yet — for animals, for people, and for real change. Tom and his cofounder Aidan Alexander were on the show a year ago shortly after farm kind launched. A lot has happened in a year.

Factory farming is the greatest moral crisis we ignore, says farm animal welfare champion Lewis Bollard. He exposes the truth behind the "all natural" labels on your groceries and shows how technology and public pressure can uncover the unseen struggle of animals, drive the industry to reform and harness our collective capacity for moral progress.

I was excited to have longtime food and animal activist (and local Atlantan) Leah Garces, CEO of Mercy for Animals, join me in the WRFG studio to share interesting stories from her latest book “TransFARMation: The Movement to Free Us From Factory Farming.” In this 49-minute podcast (recorded July 2025), we discuss all kinds of animals, including many humans, who are affected by industrial animal agribusiness -- from animal farmers, to rural communities, to slaughterhouse workers (many of whom are immigrants), to pigs, chickens, and cows -- everyone fighting exploitation in this broken system. Since we all are part of this food system and are affected by factory farming, we are all involved in creating what Leah calls a “transFARMation.” Her book, and our talk today, is focused on how people are making this necessary and positive transition happen. We hope you'll be part of this movement to a just, humane, and sustainable foodsystem. TheTransFARMationProject.org is the website to explore this effort to positively transform the rural economy with Leah's nonprofit group Mercy for Animals.

Gene Baur is the founder of Farm Sanctuary, a place of rescue, refuge, and adoption for hundreds of farm animals each year. Farm Sanctuary shelters enable visitors to connect with farm animals as emotional, intelligent individuals. Gene has also led campaigns to change laws about animal treatment and taken undercover photographs of farms, stockyards, and slaughterhouses, documenting deplorable conditions. His pictures and videos exposing factory farming cruelties have aired nationally and internationally, educating millions about the plight of modern farm animals, and his rescue work inspired an international farm sanctuary movement. Once called “the conscience of the food movement” by Time magazine, Gene walks the walk and talks the talk when it comes to food and animal rights. Jay and Gene discuss the political and cultural steps that will bring about the end of factory farming and a healthier approach to animals and food.

In this episode I speak with Thom Norman, co-founder of FarmKind, a nonprofit organization working to end factory farming through evidence-based giving. Thom shares his personal journey to veganism and why he left a legal career in nuclear energy policy to pursue systemic change for animals. He discusses the unique approach FarmKind takes in identifying and supporting high-impact charities, how donations can rival or even surpass individual dietary change in reducing animal suffering, and the importance of pragmatism in creating long-term shifts toward animal liberation. Thom also emphasizes how even small actions—whether donations or activism—can help dismantle a $2 trillion industry built on animal exploitation.

Peter Singer delves into difficult ethical questions regarding animal rights, the morality of factory farming, and difficult human-related ethical dilemmas.Singer discusses his views as a consequentialist, examining the impact of our choices on animal suffering, the ethical considerations around organ donation from anencephalic children, and the broader implications of such decisions.What are the moral implications of eating meat from factory farms versus ethically raised animals, and cannibalism under hypothetical scenarios with no harm to others?Singer emphasizes the need for considering the consequences of our actions, shedding light on the pressing need to reform our food production systems and make more ethical choices in our daily lives.Peter Singer's Substack: https://substack.com/profile/4270932-peter-singerPeter Singer's YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@peter_singerPeter Singer's book, ‘Animal Liberation Now': https://www.amazon.com/Animal-Liberation-Now-Definitive-Classic/dp/0063226707[00:00] A Philosophical Dive into Animal Rights with Peter Singer[00:12] Exploring the Ethical Dilemmas of Human and Animal Lives[01:59] The Complexities of Organ Donation from Anencephalic Children[03:57] Comparing Human and Animal Rights in Medical Contexts[06:08] Consequentialism and Individual Case Analysis in Ethics0[7:42] The Ethical Quandaries of Parental Consent and Medical Decisions[15:54] Navigating the Slippery Slope of Euthanasia and Assisted Dying[25:41] The Ethical Considerations of Eating Meat and Factory Farming[33:29] The Harsh Realities of Factory Farming[34:45] Ethical Considerations and the Nature of Animal Suffering[36:50] Addressing Common Objections to Animal Rights[41:12] The Impact of Individual Choices on Animal Suffering[43:43] The Role of Vegetarianism and Veganism in Reducing Demand for Meat[01:00:46] Exploring the Ethical Implications of Consuming Expired or Discarded Meat[01:04:50] Concluding Thoughts and Reflections

We reframe the “egg crisis” (high prices and low supply of commercial hen's eggs in a bird flu outbreak) as a crisis of mass farming of animals, proposing sustainable alternative food solutions that can replace eggs and reduce the spread of zoonotic diseases, pollution, and the killing and harm of millions of wild and domesticated animals. Jennifer and Carrie discuss this in the context of the bird flu outbreak, as avian influenza is spreading and mutating in a variety of animal species (including cows used for dairy and human farm workers) – this infectious pathogen is an increasingly alarming issue for wild animals, farmed animals, and human health. The existence of factory farms keeps viruses circulating, making everyone less safe. We discuss how institutions can help us shift toward safer more humane, plant-based food systems. We end by discussing alternatives to eggs in your baking and cooking. Dr. Jennifer Molidor, Sr. Food Campaigner at the Center for Biological Diversity is host Carrie Freeman's guest on this 42-minute podcast, recorded in late March 2025.

Send us a textHow will we feed people living in the megacities of the 21st century, especially while confronting climate chaos and the depletion of fossil fuels and fossil water? According to the mainstream media: ecomodernism! Massive deployment of technology on factory farms and an extreme ramp-up of industrialization will save the day – right? RIGHT?!? If you read the New York Times, you might think that supermarket shelves will forever overflow with 3D-printed fish sticks, mylar bags full of genetically modified cheesy poofs, and faux corn dogs that ooze out of laboratory vats. Jason, Rob, and Asher question the wisdom of doubling down on industrialization in food and farming. It's no surprise they recommend paying attention to nature and ecological limits.

What if the solution to America's health crisis is buried in the soil beneath our feet? In this episode of Remnant Finance, Hans and Brian are joined by Kevin Muno, first-generation rancher and founder of Perennial Pastures Ranch.Kevin shares his remarkable journey from college baseball player to regenerative agriculture advocate, explaining the principles behind soil health and discussing the controversial world of raw milk. From his initial permaculture experiments to managing thousands of acres of rangeland, Kevin provides insights into how properly managed grazing can transform degraded landscapes.The conversation explores how regenerative practices not only create healthier ecosystems but also produce meat with superior nutritional profiles compared to conventional farming. The discussion extends to investment opportunities in regenerative agriculture and how consumers can support this growing movement.Journey to Regenerative Ranching: After a baseball career-ending injury, the path to regenerative agriculture began with permaculture and homesteading, eventually growing into a cattle operation on 16,000 acres of leased land in San Diego County.Regenerative Agriculture Principles: Conventional farming practices have degraded soil quality, while regenerative methods rebuild soil health through animal integration, plant diversity, and maximizing photosynthesis. This approach mimics natural ecosystems to create nutrient-dense food while healing degraded landscapes.Factory Farming vs. Regenerative Practices: The conversation contrasts conventional factory farming with regenerative practices, highlighting how properly managed cattle create healthier meat with optimal omega-6 to omega-3 ratios (sometimes as low as 0.8:1 compared to the Standard American Diet's 16:1).Raw Milk Revolution: The history and benefits of raw milk are discussed, including plans for launching a dairy herd share program. The group explores how government agencies have disproportionately targeted raw milk producers despite their strong safety records.Investment Opportunity: Expansion through ranch acquisition and regeneration is underway. Using advanced technologies like satellite imagery and walkover weighing scales allows for precise management decisions years in advance, creating resilient operations even in drought conditions.▶️ Chapters: 00:00 - Introduction and Background03:00 - Baseball Career and Transition to Agriculture09:00 - Permaculture and Gardening Beginnings14:00 - How Regenerative Agriculture Heals the Land21:00 - Military Health and American Nutrition Crisis26:00 - Managing Land with Animals and Crops32:00 - Single Focus vs. Diversity in Farming34:00 - Factory Farming vs. Regenerative Practices39:00 - Nutrient Density in Food43:00 - Raw Milk History and Benefits52:00 - Government Overreach in Food Regulation59:00 - Regenerative Ranching Investment Opportunity01:12:00 - Advanced Metrics and Drought-Proofing Techniques 01:20:00 -  How to Support Perennial Pastures RanchCheck out Kevin's regenerative ranching work and explore his nutrient-dense food offerings at https://campsite.bio/perennialpasturesranch - your gateway to better health through better agriculture!Got Questions?

Send me a messageFactory farming isn't just an animal welfare issue—it's a major driver of climate change, biodiversity loss, and public health risks. In this episode of Climate Confident, I speak with Thom Norman, co-founder of FarmKind, to break down the true environmental costs of industrial animal agriculture and explore solutions.We discuss:✅ How factory farming contributes up to 19% of global greenhouse gas emissions, primarily through methane, deforestation, and fertiliser use.✅ The inefficiencies of animal agriculture—80% of cropland is used to feed livestock, yet it provides only 17% of global calorie intake.✅ The role of antibiotic overuse in factory farming and its link to rising antimicrobial resistance.✅ Why shifting to alternative proteins—such as plant-based and cultivated meat—could significantly reduce emissions and land use.✅ The effectiveness of corporate campaigns in driving industry-wide change, such as the transition away from caged eggs.We also discuss consumer choices and why the focus shouldn't just be on individuals but on systemic change—better policies, clear food labelling, and investment in sustainable food innovation.If you're interested in supporting impactful organisations tackling factory farming, Thom shares how FarmKind helps direct funding to the most effective charities.

In this episode, we talk to Thom Norman. He is trailblazer in the fight against factory farming and the founder of FarmKind—the first organization to use research-backed insights from GivingMultiplier.org to address this critical issue. FarmKind helps donors maximize their impact by splitting contributions between expert-recommended charities tackling factory farming's effects on animals and the planet, and their own favorite causes, with bonuses to amplify both. Thom's work is revolutionizing philanthropy to create a more humane and sustainable world.During this episode, we explore how Thom transitioned from the courtroom to advocating against factory farming, shedding light on its profound environmental and ethical impacts. He shares thought-provoking insights on greenhouse gas emissions, deforestation, and the psychological toll of our food choices. We also dive into the innovative work of FarmKind, from leveraging psychology to amplify the impact of ethical donations to collaborating with chefs to transform supply chains.

In this conversation, Thom Norman from FarmKind discusses the critical issues surrounding factory farming, its impact on animal welfare and climate change, and the importance of charitable donations in addressing these challenges. He emphasizes that individuals can make a difference without necessarily changing their diets and highlights the global perspective on factory farming, including the role of EU policies and the progress being made in animal welfare advocacy. TAKEAWAYS: FarmKind helps tackle factory farming through charity recommendations. Factory farming refers to industrial agriculture with large numbers of animals. Animal agriculture significantly contributes to global emissions. Changing diets is not the only way to make an impact. Donating to effective charities can offset dietary impacts. Factory farming is growing rapidly in Asia and Latin America. EU policies have mixed effects on animal welfare. There are innovative solutions to reduce animal suffering. Progress in animal welfare is being made despite industry challenges. Elevating animal voices is crucial in advocacy efforts. Episode cover picture made with Designer. Powered by DALL·E 3.

Most of the animal food products you buy come from what are called factory farms. That includes beef, chicken, turkey, and pork, as well as eggs and dairy products. The animals in these “farms” live miserable lives in horrible conditions and have a one-way ticket to the slaughterhouse. Compassion in World Farming is an organization dedicated to ending factory farming and to educating people about animal welfare, air, water and land pollution, human health and social justice, issues which are inextricably intertwined in factory farming. My guest in this program is Allie Molinaro, who was campaigns coordinator for Compassion in World Farming when we recorded this show. She is now Campaigns Manager.

It's the summer after graduation, and Munir Hachemi and his friends G, Ernesto, and Álex leave Madrid for an idyllic summer picking grapes in the French countryside—because, as Munir writes in the sixth edict of his “decalogue of decalogues about experience as literary capital”: “What sets a novelist apart is having a unique worldview as well as something to say about it. So try living a little first. Not just in books or in bars, but out there, in real life. Wait until you've been scarred by the world, until it has left its mark.” But the scars end up a little deeper than Munir anticipated. There's no grape harvest—thanks to climate change—and the four friends end up working alongside the “etcetera of Europe” at a series of nightmarish factory farms where they do everything from injecting monstrous chickens with mysterious vaccines to artificially inseminating genetically modified corn. At least, that's the premise of Hachemi's 2018 novel, Living Things, published earlier this year in an English translation by Julia Sanches. But how much of this tale is really fiction? And what's the point of fiction in an inhumane world anyway? Munir Hachemi joins us in the studio to talk about storytelling, machismo, and going vegan.Go beyond the episode: Living Things by Munir HachemiSome of Hachemi's inspirations include Artificial Respiration by Ricardo Piglia, Tomás Downey, María Sonia Cristoff, Pablo Katchadjian, Emiliano Monge, and, of course, Borges Tune in every (other) week to catch interviews with the liveliest voices from literature, the arts, sciences, history, and public affairs; reports on cutting-edge works in progress; long-form narratives; and compelling excerpts from new books.
