Old MacDonald had a farm—and on that farm he had rich terrain for an episode of Getting Curious. Join Professor Gabe Rosenberg and Jonathan as they explore what agricultural history has to do with our modern understandings of sex, gender, and sexuality. They cover the concept of “animal husbandry,” 4-H clubs, the story of a pig looking for love, and so much more. Gabriel N. Rosenberg is Associate Professor of Gender, Sexuality and Feminist Studies and History at Duke University, where he studies how gender, race, and sexuality have shaped the history of the modern food system.  His first book, <a href="https://www.upenn.edu/pennpress/book/15441.html" target="_blank">The 4-H Harvest: Sexuality and the State in Rural America</a>, was a gendered history of the iconic rural youth organization, and he is currently writing a book about the interconnections between livestock breeding and the emergence of the human eugenics movement. He writes frequently for <a href="https://newrepublic.com/authors/gabriel-n-rosenberg" target="_blank">The New Republic</a> and has held research fellowships at the National Humanities Center, Yale University, the Max Planck Institute for the History of Science, and the American Philosophical Society. You can follow him on <a href="https://twitter.com/gnrosenberg" target="_blank">Twitter</a> @gnrosenberg and subscribe to his Substack newsletter “The Strong Paw of Reason” at <a href="http://bearistotle.substack.com" target="_blank">bearistotle.substack.com</a>. Join the conversation, and find out what former guests are up to, by following us on <a target="_blank" href="https://www.instagram.com/curiouswithjvn">Instagram</a> and <a href="https://twitter.com/curiouswithjvn?lang=en" target="_blank">Twitter</a> @CuriousWithJVN.  Transcripts for each episode are available at <a href="https://www.jonathanvanness.com/gettingcurious" target="_blank">JonathanVanNess.com</a>. Love listening to Getting Curious?
