Once again I come to you from the Fellow Travellers conference in the US. This time I speak to psychologist and founder of the Animals & Society Institute, as well as the journal Society & Animals, Ken Shapiro. We discuss his 2015 article '"I am a Vegetarian": Reflections on a Way of Being'.

Again the sound quality is not great. My sound equipment got damaged on the flight from Australia to the US. I am crying into my laptop as I type this message. Please be patient and kind.

This episode is brought to you by our friends at the Australasian Animal Studies Association. AASA works for Animal Studies scholars. I'm a member. You should be a member also. Join today!
