  • #027- Keys To Vegan Success + Rainbow Bakery
    In the first half we give you our keys to success for staying vegan and making it easy on yourself. Many people hear 'vegan' and they think restrictions, hard work, lettuce. We breakdown how to make it easy on yourself, how to curb cravings, and how and when to talk to others about your lifestyle.
    In the second half, we chat with Matt and Lisa over at Rainbow Bakery in Bloomington Indiana. We hear their stories about how they started the bakery (from non baking backgrounds), how they recently ran a benefit for Uplands Peak Sanctuary (complete with cow cookies), and how they operate a regular bakery where everything just happens to be vegan.

    Erin Sisson rejoins the podcast for the whole hour to chat about the psychology of eating meat. We have a round-table discussion about why we love dogs and eat cows.

  • #021- Essentially Brittany + Superhuman Vegans
    First we talk about how to not fall for the vegan hype... don't believe people when you hear "you'll NEVER get a cold" as a vegan or "you will lose a ton of weight!" while some things may be true for some people, we don't want folks to get discouraged if they don't see x,y,z outcome. Veganism is much more than a diet or fad, and it's important to remember the main reasons to go vegan. In the second half, we chat with Essentially Brittany, a lifestyle blogger over at http://www.thejaroudis.com.

  • #019- Mark Devries, Producer and Director of Speciesism, The Movie and FactoryFarmDrones.com
    We were so excited to talk to Mark Devries, Producer and Director of Speciesism, The Movie (2013). We talk to him about the everyday pain farmed animals feel, if he wishes he could re-enter the Matrix, when and how to make the comparison to slavery and the holocaust, and much more. We get deep on this episode talking about the philosophical and psychological implications of going vegan.
    Before talking to Mark, Sarah reads an article, My first day at the slaughterhouse (http://www.veganaustralia.org.au/my_first_day_at_work_at_the_slaughterhouse). A little parental advisory: It's a descriptive piece from a meat eater who took a job at a humane slaughterhouse and went vegan overnight. She gives some squeamish details, but it's worth listening to and feeling... as it's reality.
