Show 277: Sausage and Periwinkle

About this episode

Judson Carroll discusses the medicinal and edible uses of Periwinkle and shares his views on veganism and industrial agriculture.

This week, we discuss the medicinal and edible uses of Periwinkle, or Vinca. THis pretty, little spring flower has quite a bit of medicinal value. We also discuss using medicinal herbs in cooking... specifically, sausage. I tell you why veganism is evil and vegeterianism is unhealthy and then rant against industrial agriculture and illegal immigration. ENJOY! Also, I am back on Youtube Please subscribe to my channel: @judsoncarroll5902 Judson Carroll - YouTube Tune of the week: Anytime on guitar I show you how to play a thumb style version of "Anytime" - this is truly one of my absolute favorite songs! You may know it as an Eddy Arnold song, but it was first done by Emmett Miller. Emmett Miller was a blackface comedian from Georgia, who was a big star in the 1920s. He was the first singer to truly combine blues, country and jazz into the form that would shape American popular music to this day. His band included Eddie Lang, Scatman Crothers, Tommy Dorsey, Jimmy Dorsey and Glenn Miller at various times! He is one of the most important figures in American music, and the one history has tried hardest to erase. https://youtu.be/4JY94v4Q_Vw Email: judson@judsoncarroll.com Become a…
