Umm..coffee...am I the only one that goes to bed thinking about how I'm just that much closer to having my first cup of coffee when I get up? Just me? No? Didn't think so! Almost EVERYONE loves coffee! But...how does that little coffee bean become that cup you may be enjoying right now? How did coffee become a global phenomenon? What's the history - including the dark side of the story, and what's coming?
My great guest, Professor Jonathan Morris of the University of Hertfordshire just outside of London (full bio here), discussed all of these topics with me on this episode. Dr. Morris has written two books on the topic including Coffee: A Global History; co-hosts A History of Coffee, a fascinating (and widely available) podcast looking at coffee's evolution, and has important thoughts on how we can help improve conditions for all of the farmers and individuals that help get us our morning cup. 
Great thanks to Dr. Morris, and thanks to everyone who listens - and while you're at it, go ahead and give the show a rating on I-Tunes, and all those good things!
See you soon with a new episode, and enjoy this one with Dr. Morris!
