Summary

Rob Greenfield (previously featured in episode 98) is an activist and humanitarian dedicated to sustainability, equality, and justice. He just spent an entire year growing and foraging all of his own food, so we invited him back to tell us how his experience went!

In this podcast episode, Rob sheds light on the key motivations behind his bold decisions to voluntarily earn no more than the federal poverty threshold each year; why he challenges the conventional wisdom of needing to accumulate monetary wealth to gain 'security'; and more.

Featured music: Mining for Steal by Fuchsia
