#2 “A Tale of Two Cities”

This week on the Ento Nation podcast…

We have a chat with Jarrod Goldin, CEO of Entomo Farms, which is pretty much the largest human grade cricket farming operation in the world. I just love these Goldin Brothers, they got it goin’ on when it comes to cricket farming! Been a big fan of theirs and have followed them for years, long before they became Entomo Farms the Future of Food. When it comes to cricket farming, these guys know what they’re doing, and they are always innovating and farming on the cutting edge. The Cricket Man loves that stuff! We have an insightful chat with Jarrod. You don’t want to miss it.

Also on Episode 2, lots of fun in the Cricketlicious Café! ChefPV serves up a pancake breakfast, Ento-style and in his own special ChefPV way. You can find the recipe for the Crickcakes below so that you can follow along and make your own Crickcakes as ChefPV walks you through it!

We also have an interview with one of the founders of a beloved human grade cricket farm that has recently closed their doors. We find out which farm that is. We also find out that sometimes, business isn’t so much about success and failure as it is about learning, growing, and finding your true destiny.

And on “As the Cricket’s Chirp”, will Chip heed his twin brother, and give in to his demand? Tune in tomorrow for another exciting episode, sponsored by Von’s Cricket Emporium and Billy Bob’s Cricket Extravaganzamart.
