John remembers civil rights leader and formative voice in 20th century US politics, Rev. Jesse Jackson who died at age 84 after a decade-long battle with a debilitating neurological disorder. He also talks about FCC Chair Brendan Carr putting the brakes on Steven Colbert's interview with Democratic Texas Congressman James Talarico and the death of legendary actor Robert Duvall who passed away at the age of 95. Then, he interviews Bruce Friedrich who is the founder and president of the Good Food Institute (GFI), a global science think tank with more than 230 full-time team members, the plurality scientists. Climate charity evaluator Giving Green recommends GFI as a top six charity for climate impact, highlighting its “successful track record, breadth of expertise, and strategic approach,” and calling it “a powerhouse in alternative protein thought leadership and action.” They talk about his new book "MEAT: How the Next Agricultural Revolution Will Transform Humanity's Favorite Food—and Our Future". In the book, Bruce offers an exploration of how science, policy, and industry can work together to satisfy the world’s soaring demand for meat, while building a healthier and more sustainable world. Next, John welcomes back Shawn Harris who is a retired Brigadier General and Polk County cattle producer, who returned home to Georgia after 40 years of military service to run a first-generation grass-fed cattle farm in Rockmart. Harris is running to replace Marjorie Taylor Greene in Georgia’s 14th Congressional District, a democrat in a crowded field of Republicans in a race that suddenly has the full attention of Donald Trump, who will travel there this week. And lastly, he jokes with "Comedy Daddy" Keith Price and they chat with listeners about Robert Duvall, Jesse Jackson, and Combover Caligula.
