Robert Grillo’s new book, Farm to Fable: The Fictions of Our Animal Consuming Culture, explores the stories that we’re told (and tell ourselves) that allow us to keep consuming animal products. Robert and I discuss “humane-washing,” the connection between beliefs and behavior, and how to deal with non-vegan family during the holidays. We also take a quick diversion into the US election results.
