he Conversation

The Restaurant Guys are thrilled to hear from Peter Byck, documentary filmmaker and advocate for climate solutions in cattle farming. Peter explains how we created the problem and how (relatively) easy it can be to repair it. Fascinating stuff!

The Inside Track

The Guys have promoted sustainable farming practices for decades, believing that solutions can be found that benefit both nature and the people involved. When they came across Peter’s work they had to have him on the show!

“We were doing research to find out if a method of grazing animals could be beneficial for the farmer, beneficial for the land, and beneficial for the climate. Those were our questions and, and we're finding that yes, it can be, and that's our focus,” Peter Byck on The Restaurant Guys Podcast 2025.
