Welcome to the 421st episode of Our Hen House! First, Mariann and Jasmin discuss the #ARMetoo movement. Then, Mariann talks to musician and long-time animal activist Moby about growing up an outsider, finding compassionate methods of activism, and his Netflix-related epiphany. Moby’s new album will be released on March 2nd, 2018.
On our second interview, Jasmin talks to Dr. Neal Barnard (PCRM) about the rise of veganism among athletes, the coming impact of lab-grown meat, and the effects of dopamine.
Plus, Mariann covers this week’s News and Rising Anxieties!
