To discuss this topic, I have with me Dr. Amy Fitzgerald, a Professor & researcher at the University of Windsor. She has written

Overcoming depression or an addiction, overcoming PTSD, stimulating creativity, and more to the point of this podcast, gaining a sense of connection with nature, a higher level of empathy towards others (including animals) and even a willingness to become vegan are all transformations that can be triggered by a psychedelic experience.Then, maybe psychedelics are the powerful ally that the vegan movement needs. Maybe we should fight for them to become legal and more readily available, as they might

2024/03/05

Animal rights organizations tend to be hyperactive on social media and this is nothing to say of the army of vegan influencers out there. Yet, is it the right way to go? Can't we be just a little bit critical of this proximity with social media, and self-reflect on what it means for veganism on the long-term?To discuss this topic, I have with me someone who is not afraid of playing with daring ideas.

2024/02/13

There are maybe hundreds if not thousands of vegan outreach initiatives out there. But among them, there are relatively very few seeking to open dialogue with religious leaders. Yet, strategically, I believe it is more valuable to share the vegan message of compassion with religious leaders than school children, college kids or random people in the streets, since those religious leaders will influence the hearts and minds of believers for decades to come. For this week's episode, I want to turn my

Back in 2003, the highest grossing movie was Finding Nemo, and that year Finding Nemo was competing with Pirates of the Caribbean, The Matrix Reloaded and the third Lord of the Rings movie. And it is understandable: the Pixar animation work is genius. The characters are funny and touching at times.The storyline is thoughtful and speaks to a wide audience.But what really compels me about the story of Finding Nemo is its animal rights dimension. For the first time ever, we had a movie depicting fish

About 7 years ago, one of my all time favorite ASMR artists, WhispersRed, also known as Emma, posted a video called "ASMR Dog Spa and Massage". And then 4 years ago, a video called "ASMR Veterinary Checkup". And in both of these videos, she's caring for a dog in a fantasy place called Whispaws.So imagine my confusion and surprise when in 2021 she announced that Whispaws was now a real place, a sanctuary for dogs located in Serbia.

To begin 2024 on a good note, I wanted to share a short conversation I had on the topic of Micro Sanctuaries. Have you ever heard of the concept of a micro sanctuary? It's a relatively recent trend.
