Show Notes

Colah is joined by CoHost and ethnobotany expert, Derek ‘the chocolate botanist’ Haynes to explore the questionable ethics of chocolate cultivation. They want you to think twice before you take your next bite! Turns out, Derek is also a Roald Dahl expert as he brilliantly connected Willy Wonka lore to the subject at hand.

Trigger warning: this episode contains mention of sex trafficking and child slavery.
