Sadly, those words still ring true many, many centuries later. If you've never heard of the phrase "Bread and Circuses" you're in for a treat. The quote is a direct quote from a Roman poet named Juvenal.
Apparently, our overlords believe that all we need are bread and circuses and we shall never revolt...they might be right. In Latin, it is written as "panem et circusensus", and what Juvenal was describing was how politicians maintain public approval through distraction.
If you take a step back and look at the news cycle, or better said, the YouTube algorithmic cycle, you'll be reminded to check out what Elon Musk is saying today about his Twitter purchase. Or maybe you'll get the recommendation to watch the 10 minute long video of Johnny Depp being hilarious in court...again. Or maybe a TikTok video will pop up on your phone of the dancing quadra-color giraffe people. (I just made that last one up:)...
Either way, thinking about all this made me wonder...what are we being distracted from and why?
That's the topic of this week's podcast episode. I hope you listen in and share it with someone you love.

Thank you for being here. If you're here because you want to learn more about how our industrial food supply and production is killing our local economies, our environment and our health....Welcome!
The time is now to come together and talk, support local food producers and learn about the threats we are facing in real time. Things like inflation and the steadily rising prices of food, the corporate control of our food, the chemical contamination of our food and the marketing manipulation of our food. It is all connected.
And that's why I've been talking about it on my podcast. Now, I want to talk about it WITH you. Please consider joining this community, sharing episodes with people you love and keeping it LOCAL~!
