Topic: Heirloom Tomatoes

The hosts address listener feedback regarding the No Agenda Global (NAG) Radio stream and its alleged advertisements.

A severe late blight is affecting tomato and potato crops in the Northeast United States, occurring much earlier in the season than typical fall outbreaks. Speculation exists regarding a connection between the blight and the development of resistant "super tomatoes" at Cornell University, which has ties to Monsanto. Some observers suggest the outbreak may be a concerted effort to undermine the organic heirloom tomato market.
