In this episode, Michael dives into the world of insect farming, where a multi-billion dollar industry has been touted as the future of sustainable food.

Michael explores the story of insect farming's collapse, from the TED talk that started it all to the billions of dollars invested in a industry that ultimately failed to deliver. With a healthy dose of skepticism, Michael examines the motivations behind this failed experiment and the lessons we can learn from it.

Michael takes us back to 2013, when the CDC reported a 21% drop in the homicide rate among black youth, only to see the Black Lives Matter movement launch and fundamentally reshape American policing, the criminal justice system, and urban policy. The result? A catastrophic surge in youth homicides, with the CDC finding a 37% increase in the youth homicide rate between 2019 and 2020. The speaker argues that the progressive Marxist policies implemented in cities like Chicago, New York, and Denver have led to a decade of radical reforms that dismantled what was actually working.
