Welcome to the 47th podcast episode of Our Hen House, featuring Bruce Friedrich.
In today’s episode, we will be talking Hanukah – and we’ll let you know what newest kitchen gadget of ours will result in us no longer needing to buy soymilk. We’ll also discuss other items that have been on our minds, including the medieval animal trials, and vegan latkes.
Joining us today is Bruce Friedrich, Vice President of Policy at PETA and co-author (with Matt Ball) of The Animal Activist’s Handbook. Bruce will give us his thoughts on effective activism, and a whole lot more.
For our review section, we will be joined by Our Hen House reviewer Kyle Knies. Kyle will giving you his tasty take on the cookbook More Great Good Dairy Free Desserts Naturally, by Fran Costigan.
