Molly Elwood joins us to discuss how Elwood’s Organic Dog Meat has brilliantly channeled repulsion into activism that gets people thinking about who they might have on their plate.

Between creative agencies and in-house creative teams, she has spent more than ten years writing and humanizing for her clients.
