Honoring the Animals We Eat – Just Like the Native Americans

Wow!! I was absolutely floored by this particular podcast. The first half was interesting and got my ears pricked while I was immersed in other work, but really it’s the second half, which goes into the history of how the various Native American tribes lived and fed themselves over the ages — it’s incredibly fascinating! Completely re-wrote a bunch of ideas I had lolling about in my head for years. I researched it a bit more online and various US museum and archaeology websites confirmed this information.

This is just the first of Colleen’s podcasts that I’ve listened to, but I’m already hooked.
