About this episode
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. But what happens when the market doesn't cooperate? 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.
