    From Rabbits to Rallies: Stewart Houston on Pigs, Politics, and Prostate Health

    "We put out a hundred seats and over 500 turned up — there were pig farmers outside with their heads up through the windows to listen."In our very first episode, we sit down with Stewart Houston to hear how a childhood interest in keeping rabbits turned into a lifelong passion for pigs.Stuart talks us through how a childhood obsession with rabbits led to a life at the heart of British pig farming, what it really takes to advocate for an industry through crisis - from protest rallies to ministerial meetings, and why getting a PSA test might just save your life. It's a warm, candid conversation full of hard-won wisdom, straight-talking northern honesty and a reminder that looking after yourself is just good stockmanship.The Pig Pen is brought to you by The British Pig Association.
