Stop The Violence

I'll be back soon... I wanted to make some solid improvements to the Stop The Violence Podcast! In this episode I reflect on what it's been like podcasting for 6 months, what I've learned, and where this podcast is heading, and suggestions for who to listen to while I'm gone! (And some other thoughts...)

Vegans are soooo judgmental! Why can't they just live and let live? NO HATE TOWARD KALYN NICHOLSON! I am one of her huge fans and have been watching her since 2015. I am simply analyzing what she has been saying and doing lately regarding veganism. I also use this as an opportunity to discuss judgement/ being judgmental.

This week for the podcast you will get to hear some amazing speeches from Black Lives Matter Paterson (NJ). Follow @blm_paterson and @zellieimani on insta. These speeches were recorded by myself on May 25, 2021 on the first anniversary of the murder of George Floyd. The speeches honor George, and you will also hear some experiences of black and other non-white people. BLM Paterson also shares about the injustices happening to Palestine. Note: BLM Paterson does not know that I am posting the speeches and they do not know me. I believe they want their messages shared, but if they don't want me posting this and let me know, I will take it down.

Are there serious ethical concerns with consuming cashews, avocados, or almonds? I do my best to answer this question because I wanted to know too. This is the first installment of a series where I look into certain plant foods that people say have some dirty things going on behind the scenes.

Water is obviously vital to our survival and clean usable water is getting more and more scarce...with less than a billion humans without drinking water though, the fact that the number is well into the billions for the amount of animals using this water is very perplexing.

Books I mentioned: How to Break Up With Your Phone by Catherine Price, and Self Compassion by Kristen Neff. One point I forgot to make is that phones are an arena for random emotional triggers as well as mental overstimulation- isn't it easier to stay happy when you don't see something on your phone that steals your joy?!
