Ep 218 | 🎙️ This week on Discover Ag… Natalie and Tara are back, tackling everything from Nashville nightlife to national food sovereignty. They start with a biotech breakthrough: a new FDA-approved UV light treatment for milk that kills pathogens without heat, stirring up buzz as a “raw milk equivalent.” But will the raw milk community embrace it, or see it as just another marketing gimmick? Then it’s on to grocery store produce misters. A viral reel claims they spray more than water, specifically, hypochlorous acid, a food-safe disinfectant. The hosts break down the science, safety, and why not all “chemical” labels are cause for panic. Next stop: Nashville. Post Malone’s flashy Posties bar and Kid Rock’s upscale steakhouse spark a discussion on celebrity restaurants, authenticity, and how agriculture quietly shapes even the wildest nights on Broadway. Finally, the Texas legislature stirs debate with a new bill banning land ownership by entities from China, Iran, Russia, and North Korea. Is it a step toward food security or a slippery slope into discrimination? This week’s episode blends science, policy, pop culture, and a healthy dose of sarcasm.   What We Discovered This Week 🤠 🪩 FDA-approved UV milk tech and the raw milk community’s reaction 🪩 What grocery store misters are actually spraying and why it’s not bleach 🪩 A side-by-side look at Post Malone and Kid Rock’s very different restaurant ventures 🪩 Texas bans foreign land ownership: what it means for agriculture and national security 🪩 Why sometimes the most controversial ingredients are just misunderstood   WELCOME TO DISCOVER AG- A top-ranked podcast where agriculture meets pop culture.
