    Dairy's Deep History
    Mar 21 2025
    Whether or not you like milk, we all have a story to tell. Milk is our first food, but it is also something that many people encounter everyday. Why do people love milk so much, and long have humans been drinking it? In this episode Johanna and JC track right back in time to understand when, why and how humans decided to drink milk from other animals. We speak to archaeologists Andrew Reid and Emmanuel Ndiema, and geneticist Sarah Tishcoff, to find out more.

    Aren't cows mothers too? In this episode we explore milk and motherhood, and the difficult choices people make about the milk they produce and consume. From keeping cows with their calves, to navigating breast versus bottle milk for our babies, milk is both intimate and highly charged. JC and Johanna speak to dairy farmer David Finlay, child health advisor Josphine Wandia Munene, and geographer Peter Atkins.

    Industrial Milk
    Sep 4 2025

    Milk is a staple product found in many homes, but what does it take to get onto our doorsteps, into our supermarkets, and into our fridges? In this episode, JC and Johanna explore industrial milk and how logical decisions in the upscaling of the dairy industry have led to some absurd realities that impact consumers and farmers every day. We speak to historian Kendra Smith Howard, MERL curator Ollie Douglas, and Atenchong Talleh Nkobou, a senior lecturer in International Rural Development.
