PODCAST

Jeremy Loeb

Spinoff of a podcast I co-produce with animal rights activist/attorney Wayne Hsiung. Animal rights is the theme. I will expose the good in other activists and put my tiny weight of support into their efforts. I will highlight activists, artists, and community members with fascinating stories, typically related in some way to animal rights. I will use my press background as a former host and reporter at various NPR member stations to do engaging conversations and attempt to find angles and

She's Risking Her Freedom to Save Animals

Jeremy Loeb ·

2024/08/10

Zoe Rosenberg was just 11 years old when she started an animal rescue that would become Happy Hen Animal Sanctuary. She's since become one of the boldest animal rescuers and investigators I've ever met. She now faces years in prison in Sonoma County, CA for rescuing ducks and chickens from factory farms. But while the authorities in Sonoma may bend a knee to the animal agriculture industry, Zoe faces it unflinchingly with grace and determination. They may be afraid. Zoe isn't.Zoe

Raised in Nazi Germany, She Has a Stark Warning on Trump

Jeremy Loeb ·

2024/08/05

In part two of my conversation with my friend Liesel Appel, we discuss how she rejected Nazism in her home country of Germany only to find racial bigotry in America. In Part 1, Liesel tells how as a baby, she was dedicated to Hitler at two weeks old by her Nazi parents. But she didn't learn who the Nazis were or what they stood for until a fateful visit by a Jewish man to her home when she was 9 years old. This incredible story led her to rejecting her mother, abandoning Germany, fighting

"Hitler's Baby" is an Animal Rights Activist?!

Jeremy Loeb ·

2024/07/28

One recent afternoon I was finishing Charles Patterson's book "Eternal Treblinka: Our Treatment of Animals and the Holocaust" when I came across an eye-catching chapter. But it wasn't the title: "Hitler's Baby," which caught my eye. It was the name immediately following it: Liesel Appel. Liesel Appel? Where had I heard that name before? I thought I remembered the name from Facebook, of all places. Sure enough, when I checked my Facebook buddies, there was Liesel

Animal Rights Activist and Feminist Michelle Del Cueto

2024/07/26

YouTube video of this conversation.Upon my arrival in Berkeley, California for my first look into Direct Action Everywhere's press operation, one of the first people to greet me was Michelle Del Cueto. DxE's international coordinator and I were easy friends. She, along with DxE's press coordinator at the time, Matt Johnson, were my two steady companions during that first visit. And despite several years of friendship, I had never really gotten Michelle's personal story. What I knew

Sled Dog Racing is Decadent and Depraved

Jeremy Loeb ·

2024/07/20

Just as Hunter S. Thompson put it in his seminal 1970 article about the Kentucky Derby, sled dog racing is decadent and depraved. Decadent: characterized by or reflecting a state of moral or cultural decline. Depraved: morally corrupt; wicked. (Oxford Languages)So apt is this title that the whistleblower describing to me in vivid detail the deplorable treatment of dogs he witnessed during his time working for a musher characterized these conditions as "above average" in the industry.

5 Years at the Helm: DxE's Almira Tanner

Jeremy Loeb ·

2024/07/08

Almira Tanner is someone who makes me optimistic that we will achieve animal liberation. Almira is the lead organizer of the global animal rights organization Direct Action Everywhere (DxE), a role she's occupied for around five years. I feel deeply honored to have been able to work alongside her on several occasions, and I personally witnessed how dedicated and hardworking she is. I witnessed Almira working deep into the night, after days of countless meetings, activism events, and signature

Corporate World to Vegan Activism (feat. Daynesh)

Jeremy Loeb ·

2024/06/26

I was a subscriber to Daynesh's YouTube channel long before I reached out to him for support for the Ridglan beagle rescue trial. And when I did, I already felt like he was an old buddy of mine. That's the strength of Daynesh. He has a powerfully relatable approach to vegan activism that just makes you feel like you've known the guy for years. But not only is he friendly and humble, he's also very talented at making videos and put together one of the best explainer videos about the

I Took Down a Sex Cult Leader on His Bday (feat....

Jeremy Loeb ·

2024/06/19

I joined the worst sex cult ever, and chose his birthday to interrogate him and finally bring him down. It took years, but I finally got him. In all seriousness, Wayne Hsiung is actually the co-founder of animal rights groups Direct Action Everywhere (DxE) and The Simple Heart Initiative. He doesn't run a sex cult, as some people would choose to believe. Or if he does, I wasn't invited to that (sigh). What we do instead is try to help animals, and few people I have met have done more

Up Your Outreach Game w/ Debug Your Brain

Jeremy Loeb ·

2024/06/12

Justin Jacobs, Debug Your Brain on YouTube, makes outreach videos that are useful not just for the casual viewer, but for activists as well. He often describes in text what he's doing, or attempting to do during outreach, and why. Justin gets a lot of bang for his buck during outreach. A simple conversation with a passerby can turn into a useful tool for activists and the public in general. And I love to see someone being so analytical and strategic with their outreach and their content. Even

Another Nail in the Fur Industry Coffin

Jeremy Loeb ·

2024/06/08

Activists notched a huge win over the fur industry this week when Marc Jacobs announced he was dropping fur after weeks of relentless pressure from Animal Activism Mentorship (AAM) and the Coalition to Abolish the Fur Trade (CAFT). I mark the occasion with some foxy co-hosts. I also joined a long list of activists from Direct Action Everywhere (DxE) disrupting a celebrity chef on his book tour.

When Activists Have to do Politicians' Jobs (feat....

Jeremy Loeb ·

2024/06/05

Politicians are standing in the way of progress for animals, so activists are bypassing them and going directly to voters. One of them is Natalie Fulton, who is working with Pro-Animal Future on Denver ballot initiatives to ban fur and slaughterhouses. Listen now or watch the video.

What I Found in a Korean Slaughterhouse

2024/06/01

What do Moby Dick and Haruki Murakami novels share in common? What does a Chinese pianist share in common with a Danish string quartet? What does an ancient palace garden and an enigmatic tattoo parlor share in common? What does any of this have to do with a Korean slaughterhouse? Nothing. Or everything. In any case, they're all part of this story.

Animals are People, featuring James Aspey

Jeremy Loeb ·

2024/05/29

My first interview in six years! James Aspey was one of the biggest names in animal rights activism around the time I got my start in activism. Since then, he's taken a pummeling from, sadly, the animal rights community. While I believe James has made some mistakes (mainly dwelling too much on the hate he has received), I have always found him to be someone who treated me with kindness and respect. In my first video, I talked a bit about recent controversy he's had, so you can go get my

Who the F#@& is this guy?

2024/05/25

In this maiden episode of the podcast, I tell my story of going from respectable-ish radio host and reporter, to less respectable street pianist, to being side-by-side with animal rights activist/attorney Wayne Hsiung and giving him invaluable legal advice that landed him in jail for a month, to co-producing a podcast with him and launching my own.
