Because of our long history with and connection to horses, there are hundreds of horse-related words in the English language. Part one of two.

In this re-broadcast of one of our most popular episodes, I share what I believe are 10 Habits of Highly Effective Advocates. As an advocate for animals and compassionate living for over 30 years, I have learned a lot (from my own mistakes) about what works and what doesn't.

We are deep in the Food for Thought archives with this episode! A re-broadcast of an episode that aired in 2006 (!), it may be the first time I shared my motto: "Don't do nothing because you can't do everything. Do something! Anything!" AND it's when I used the "vegetarian" as an umbrella term, even though this podcast has always been "vegan." In it, I address such declarations as:

“If we didn’t kill and eat animals, the world would be overrun with them.”
 
“These incisors in my mouth prove that we were meant to eat animals.”

"Don't you care about insects killed in the growing and harvesting of plants." 

ENJOY!

Join me as I excavate dozens of horse-related expressions, idioms, and phrases that you use in your everyday speech. Some will be familiar, but some will blow your mind.

If you call yourself vegan or have ever been told you can't call yourself vegan, this episode is for you. In it, we discuss:

*the overuse of the word vegan

*the use of "vegan" to refer to people as well as food

*the attempt by some vegans to narrow the definition and make the word "vegan" refer to every social problem that exists in the world

How do we talk about the way we eat? Looking at the wonderful world of words related to eating based on physiology, I share my thoughts about why elephants aren't vegan, why vegans aren't herbivores, and why your meat-eating friends aren't carnivores.
