Episode 243: “Poor animals, how jealously they guard their bodies, for to us is merely an evening’s meal, but to them is life itself.”

Welcome to the 243rd episode of Our Hen House, a place to find our way to change the world for animals.
Today we’re bringing you more of our favorite interviews from the Our Hen House TV Show, a co-production with Brooklyn Independent Media. You’ll hear from five powerful changemaking women, including wildlife rehabilitator Adair Moran [transcript], co-founder of the Woodstock Farm Animal Sanctuary Jenny Brown, poet Gretchen Primack [transcript of Jenny Brown and Gretchen Primack], novelist Robin Lamont [transcript], and MooShoes co-founder Erica Kubersky [transcript]. Plus, we welcome back OHH’s continually fantastic Alessandra Seiter (of Farmers Market Vegan) to curate these interviews.
