This episode is the first half of a two-part recording of Brandon's recent interview by Terrance Layhew of The Intellectual Agrarian.   During the interview Brandon and Terrance discuss such issues as:  the lack of first-hand experience within modern-day academia; the burden of abundance (utilizing 100% of an animal carcass);  and the existence of a widespread estrangement, within our current society, from the anatomy of animals.  Additionally, Brandon dispels a few "on-farm animal harvesting" myths.
