Halfway through the watch, glenn doesn't know how to pronounce sow and referred to Vietnam as North Korea.
He's slipping.
Going to push through to the end though.
Yeah, I notice he makes some mistakes like that on his show, because he's running the video stuff on his own. I'd imagine that's a pretty high cognitive load. It seems he doesn't make those mistakes when he's being interviewed by someone.

We are meat eaters, as a whole, in our society. Including me. That doesn't mean we have to subject our food to abject cruelty while they are alive.

Here is some info from Wiki, since people asked about Smithfield:
...operates as an independent subsidiary of the Chinese-owned conglomerate WH Group....In addition to owning over 500 farms in the US, Smithfield contracts with another 2,000 independent farms around the country to raise Smithfield's pigs.[6] Outside the US, the company has facilities in Mexico, Poland, Romania, Germany, Slovakia and the United Kingdom.[7] Globally the company employed 50,200 in 2016 and reported an annual revenue of $14 billion.[2] Its 973,000-square-foot meat-processing plant in Tar Heel, North Carolina, was said in 2000 to be the world's largest, slaughtering 32,000 pigs a day.[8]...
Then known as Shuanghui Group, WH Group purchased Smithfield Foods in 2013 for $4.72 billion.[9][10] It was the largest Chinese acquisition of an American company to date.[11] The acquisition of Smithfield's 146,000 acres of land made WH Group, headquartered in Luohe, Henan province, one of the largest overseas owners of American farmland.[b]...
2012 it opened a restaurant, Taste of Smithfield, in Smithfield, Virginia, located in the same Main Street building as its retail store, The Genuine Smithfield Ham Shoppe.[46] As of July 2017, the company's brands included Armour, Berlinki, Carando, Cook's, Curly's, Eckrich, Farmland, Gwaltney, Healthy Ones, John Morrell, Krakus, Kretschmar, Margherita, Morliny, Nathan's Famous, and Smithfield.[17] In 2019 it introduced Pure Farmland, a plant-based brand of soy burgers and meatballs.[47]
In early 2019 Smithfield re-branded its food-service business, Smithfield Farmland, as "Smithfield Culinary." The company created advisory boards composed of chefs, established partnerships with culinary schools, and engaged in substantial research and development to improve its products. Smithfield Culinary uses the Carando, Curly's, Eckrich, Farmland, Margherita, and Smithfield brand names.[48]

Sows go into gestation crates late in gestation so when they farrow the piglets aren't squished by the sow. They don't spend the entire time they are pregnant in the crates. It isn't efficient.
This, and also so the sow doesn’t eat the piglets.
