Quick one. My team tells me we actually have very few reviews relative to the weekly audience

numbers. This is no doubt my fault, as I've always felt a little weird about asking you

to do something for me. But clearly, if you don't ask, you don't get. So if you're enjoying

the show, if it's providing you value, please take 30 seconds and leave a review on Apple

or Spotify. In doing so, you'll help the show rank higher, which means we can continue

to attract the brightest and most trustworthy people in science. My team and I have big

plans for the show where we want to be in 24 months and we need your help to make this

possible.

I was told I was aware that if you go and get your own needs, if you hunt, lead out, skin

and clean, and dispose of the carcass thoughtfully, that's how you do that. That's how you

eat meat. That's a different intent. That's a different type of cause and effect or

karma or whatever you want to call it. It's different than rocking up to the supermarket

and getting your perfectly lean, leached all the same color, all the same shape, all the

same size, cuss of meat. You don't know where it comes from, there's no connection.

So I was like, okay, I get that. I get that. So then I went with my friends hunting,

we shot a goat and I shot a couple of rabbits. So I was skinning the rabbits and I had a

puppy at the time and I had to break the rabbit's neck and it was like breaking my little

puppy's neck at that time. And I was nearly sick and I was like, oh, I can't do this.

I had to go out, had to cut its organs out, had to skin it. I had to do all this myself.

I was like, oh, this is not me. I can't do this. It's like, all right, done. I can't do it.

That's Ben Richards and this is the proof podcast.
