A lively, occasionally chaotic show that starts with pressure cookers and steak and ends up with food sovereignty, history and myth. Eric and I kick off with his “five cooker” confession, why Hawkins beats the rest, and how to get melt‑in‑the‑mouth results without boiling the flavour away. From there we wander to the butcher’s bill for sirloin, cheaper cuts, brisket and shredded beef, and why buying direct from farms and local shops can beat the supermarket squeeze. We also share practical growing ideas—from keyhole gardens to biochar/terra preta—and small, doable steps to rebuild our own food resilience this winter.

In hour two, Frederick “Blackbird9” Blackburn joins us to connect the Peasants’ Revolt of 1381 with today’s supply‑chain control, fourth/fifth‑generation warfare, and the politics of food. We talk diet, logistics, and why stories and history matter—from Grimm and Graham Greene’s The Third Man to frontier realities and Tom Goodrich’s work. The through‑line: stop waiting on “them,” start organising with each other, and learn, grow and source your food like your grandparents did. Pleasant Peasants, assemble.
