Broadcasts live every Thursday at 8:00p.m. uk time on Radio Soapbox: http://radiosoapbox.com
We delve into the world of local currencies, such as Ithaca Hours and LETS systems, and how they can invigorate local economies. The conversation naturally flows into the broader topic of central banking and the control it exerts over governments and economies. In the latter part of the show, we are joined by Patrick, who brings in valuable insights about self-sufficiency, gardening, and the importance of local food production. We discuss the benefits of companion planting and the historical context of victory gardens during wartime.
