Brian Shafer, living in rural Nebraska, became aware of both the dangers of pesticides, and the benefits of organic farming, or beyond organic. David talks to him about his experiences trying to change attitudes in America’s heartland, with a cameo by his brother Michael. Things came to a head when the city authorities refused to stop driving on private land in order to spray his organic garden with a dangerous insecticide (well, all pesticides are dangerous).

Michael Ellner was a powerful force, from the mid-1980s on, resisting the pharmaceutical paradigm of HIV=AIDS=Death in New York City and globally. He conceived the concept of “The AIDS Zone”, where psychological factors trap victims in the grip of fear where the only salvation is the magical concoctions provided by the pharmaceutical industry, starting with the deadly AZT in 1987. David interviews four of his friends to remember his life and legacy – Celia Farber, Joan Shenton, Barnett “Bud” Weiss and Tom Diferdinando, in time for his birthday on April 10th.
