E33 Mad Cow Disease - Improve Intermediate-Advanced English listening skills
Manage episode 462670081 series 3577242
Here is an unusual episode discussing food safety, fear, and the unexpected stories that shape our world. In this week’s episode of English and Beyond, César and I tackle the eerie tale of Mad Cow Disease—a terrifying health scare from the 90s that shaped the UK’s food industry and left lasting psychological scars.
👀 What’s in the episode?
- The origins of Mad Cow Disease and its shocking connection to cows eating cows.
- How it transformed the global perception of British beef (and even restricted blood donations!).
- A glimpse into César’s perspective on food safety scandals in Spain and the infamous horse meat controversy.
With plenty of (darkly) humorous moments, personal anecdotes, and unexpected tangents—including a noisy dishwasher and an elderly pug—this episode sheds light on the fragile relationship between trust, health, and what we eat.
