What if animals think and feel in ways weβve yet to grasp? In this episode, we delve into this fascinating question with Dr. Marc Bekoff. Dr. Bekoff is a pioneering ethologist and professor emeritus of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at the University of Colorado, Boulder. Renowned for his groundbreaking work on animal emotions, rewilding, and ethics, he has collaborated with figures like Jane Goodall to challenge our perceptions of nature and published numerous books and essays, the latest of which include A Dog's World: Imagining the Lives of Dogs in a World Without Humans, Dogs Demystified: An A-to-Z Guide to All Things Canine, and The Emotional Lives of Animals: A Leading Scientist Explores Animal Joy, Sorrow, and Empathyβand Why They Matter.
Weβll also explore his recent book, Dogs Demystified, uncovering fresh insights into our canine companionsβhow they experience the world, communicate, and how we can improve their lives.
βMore and more science is being done that shows that animals have rich and deep emotional lives. It's also common sense. What is the number one thing you believe a person can do to give their dog a wonderful life? Love them. Spoil them. Make them the most special beings in the world. And I really mean that. One myth about dogs is that they are unconditional lovers. The other myth is that they're our best friends. Neither is true. Basically, the general bumper sticker is that dogs off leash are better behaved, maybe less assertive, less aggressive, more playful than the same dog on a leash. People who leave their house at eight in the morning and come home at six at night and the dog has no company, I would consider that relatively abusive.β - Dr. Marc Bekoff
What we discuss:
- Tips for enriching your dogβs life.
- The truth about alpha dogs and the reality of social hierarchies.
- What your dog feels when left aloneβand how to ease their stress.
- Recognizing when your dog needs to go outside.
- Why a vegan diet can be a safer, healthier choice for your dog.
- Fascinating facts about a dogβs nose and the critical role of scent in their world.
- Dr. Bekoffβs perspective on purebreds vs. muttsβand what genetics mean for your dog.

Today, weβre thrilled to welcome back culinary innovator Chef Del Sroufe, the mastermind behind Forks Over KnivesβThe Cookbook. Since his plant-based journey began in 1989, Chef Del has made it his mission to create flavorful, nourishing food thatβs accessible to all. With experience ranging from running his own bakery to executive chef roles, he now shares his expertise at the T. Colin Campbell Center for Nutrition Studies.
Just in time for the holidays, join us as Chef Del shares his tips for crafting delicious, crowd-pleasing treats to bring everyone to the table!
βIt's a lot easier for people to come towards you when they're not feeling defensive about their own choices. And then to give up on the idea of perfection for others, what you do and what you eat is your choice. They're going to make their own. You can make it available. You can make it beautiful. You can make it taste great, but that doesn't bring them to the table. They've got to make that decision for themselves. The only people who are not getting enough protein are people who do not get enough calories. Get rid of the steamer, get rid of the boiler, get on the stove top or get in the oven and roast and see the difference in your foods. The problem is that these guys are gonna find out In their 50s and 60s that they've got kidney disease now because they had so much protein beating up on their body.β - Chef Del Sroufe

Anthony Masielloβa devoted father who, after years of battling obesity and life-threatening health issues, received a wake-up call that changed everything. In 2005, weighing 360 pounds and denied life insurance, Anthony was faced with the realization that he might not be there to see his children grow up. Determined to change his fate, he embraced a whole-food, plant-based lifestyle, shedding 160 pounds and reversing chronic health conditions like migraines, high blood pressure, and sleep apnea.
Flash forward 15 years, and heβs thriving. His incredible journey has been featured in media outlets such as PBS, The Huffington Post, Forks Over Knives, and Runnerβs World, and as the co-founder and CEO of Love.Life Telehealthβa wellness network focused on addressing the root causes of chronic disease and offering holistic solutionsβhe continues to inspire and drive change in healthcare.
Join us today as we dive into his powerful story!
βWhat made you change at age 33? The spark was being denied that life insurance policy. My wife was pregnant with our second son. And, I wanted to, as a father and as a provider for my family, I wanted to make sure that my family would be taken care of if something happened to me. It wasn't like I was going through the formalities of getting a life insurance policy. Like, this is something that I was proud to be putting in place for my family so if something happened, they would be able to take care of themselves. And getting denied was like a ton of bricks coming down. Not only would they not give me the insurance, so I couldn't be proud to know that if something did happen to me, that my family would be able to take care of themselves, but the fact that they didn't think I was going to make it 20 years was even more hard to take because here I am holding an infant with an 18-month-old toddler running around. So my focus was eating more, eating more fruits and vegetables every single day. And I was letting that naturally crowd out all the other stuff that I should be eating less of. So I didn't start with a hard line on no cheese. I didn't start with a hard line on no bread or flour or those kinds of things. So glad that I did it this way. It wasn't necessarily as conscious. It's kind of what I heard. I was working in pharmaceutical research and I had more of an informatics role there where I was helping with data analysis and things like that to help bring new drugs to market. I was really excited about that when I started working there because I thought it was an opportunity to help people. And, through my own transformation, I realized, wow, I would rather help people to not need medications to come up with new medicines that may or may not help people to actually feel better.β - Anthony Masiello

Did you know nearly half a billion people worldwide are grappling with type 2 diabetes? Itβs a staggering statistic, revealing a global health crisis. But hereβs the good news: It doesnβt have to be a life sentence!
Our guest today, Lewis Bertus, a passionate Physician Assistant with a personal connection to diabetes, has dedicated himself to transforming lives through a holistic, plant-focused approach. Inspired by the impact heβs seen in both his patients and his wife, he founded Diabetes 180 to show that reclaiming health is truly possible.
In this episode, we explore his evidence-backed strategies, the power of dietary shifts, and his mission to spread a plant-based message of hope and change. For anyone facing diabetes or supporting someone who is, this conversation is one you wonβt want to miss!
βType 2 diabetes, I should say, is a disease where your body is no longer sensitive to its own insulin. So your pancreas is now in overdrive, overproducing insulin. And this is why the disease gets worse because the pancreas gets stressed. Type 1 diabetics is different, but they can also suffer from insulin resistance. With a Type 1 diabetic, their pancreas is no longer producing a sufficient amount of insulin. But, even the insulin they inject can get to the point where your body is rejecting it. The lifestyle and the diet is basically promoting resistance to the insulin. So when you go on the right lifestyle β low fat, whole food plant-based, intermittent fasting, exercising is a good thing. I encourage people to build their lean muscle. See it as cabinet storage for sugar. So it takes less insulin to do its job, whether you're injecting it as a Type 1 diabetic or your body is producing it. And that's what really leads you to reverse the disease because guess what? Now you could eat carbs, a bowl of fruit for breakfast, and your body just responds like it normally should.β - Lewis Bertus Pa-C
What we discuss in this episode:
- How Lewisβs wife transformed her health through a plant-based diet.
- Understanding diabetes, fat intake, and insulin resistance.
- Strategies for coping with sugar cravings.
- Benefits of intermittent fasting for patients, including how it works and supports health.
- Inspiring success stories from Lewisβs patients.
- Lewisβs recommendations for starting a plant-based diet.

Dr. Monica Aggarwal is the perfect example of what can happen when you donβt take care of your body β¦ sheβs also the perfect example of what can happen when you do take care of your body. Living under the constant pressure of defined gender norms in a subspecialty medical profession, Dr. Aggarwal strived to be perfect. After finishing school and experiencing several miscarriages, she had three children in four years and tried to be Super Mom along with her full-time job as a cardiologist. Ultimately, her body broke down and she was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis. Months passed until she took control of her healthβnot with medicine, but with lifestyle. When she prioritized sleep, plant-based eating, and more gentle forms of exercise, she put her disease in remission. This is part one of our two-part interview with the fabulous and knowledgeable Dr. Aggarwal. We just couldnβt cover everything in one short hour. Buckle up and get ready to learn.
βSo there's a study that shows that if you have high genetic risk and you have a poor lifestyle, your risk of building plaque stays here. But if you have that same high genetic risk and you have a great lifestyle, you can reduce that risk by 50 percent. So similarly, if you look at somebody with low genetic risk, then that person has a good lifestyle, they will have maybe a risk of heart disease of this. But if they have a low genetic risk and a poor lifestyle, they will double their risk by 50 percent. So why are we not working on lifestyle? Such a big and important problem. The reality is that our medical system is so flawed because we focus on acuity-based care and not value-based care, and that's fundamentally the problem.β - Dr. Monica Aggarwal
What we discuss in this episode:
- Expectations placed on women in the medical field
- Gender roles
- Dr. Aggarwalβs story of healing
- Rheumatoid arthritis and autoimmune disorders
- Understanding inflammation and disease
- Inflammatory foods and triggers
- Understanding heart disease and risk
- Preventative measures to decreasing risk of illness

In 2017, The Game Changers documentary caught the attention of millions, sparking a new conversation about plant-based nutrition and athletic performance. Behind its scientific integrity was David Goldman, the filmβs chief science advisor, who ensured its message was grounded in robust, evidence-based findings.
David is a certified specialist in sports nutrition and strength conditioning, with a masterβs degree in applied physiology and nutrition from Columbia University. He has worked with college, professional, and Olympic athletes, helping them excel through plant-powered strategies. Join us as we explore his latest research, insights, and actionable strategies for optimizing your health and unlocking your potential!
βWhen weight is lost, a whole bunch of things come down, generally, like inflammation, inflammatory markers, for example, like C-reactive protein or your cholesterol will drop. But then when you have people do it with a diet like a carnivore diet that's real, or a keto diet that's really high in saturated fat, you have this competition between weight loss, lowering cholesterol, paired with saturated fat and dietary cholesterol, increasing cholesterol, and so that's where there's this sort of mixed findings on what the effects of these diets are on some of these blood markers. Now, if you were to lose weight on a plant-based diet, it just drops like a rock. You know, you can just drop cholesterol LDL, especially blood pressure, and you can just drop these like crazy. There's no competition. Be in the driver's seat of your own dietary choices for your life. And those are hard decisions you have to make. A lot of those same benefits can come even to greater extents eating plant-based diets.β - David Goldman
What we discuss in this episode:
- The facts about vitamin B12 supplementation.
- Why carnivore and keto diets arenβt sustainable, the risks they pose, and why some see short-term results.
- Davidβs approach to fostering healthy eating habits in his children.
- The connection between plant-based eating and erectile function.
- How increasing whole plant foods improves womenβs sexual health.
- The link between plant-based diets and better Covid-19 outcomes.
- Ensuring sufficient omega-3 intake on a plant-based diet.
- The hidden dangers of estrogen in cowβs milk and its effects on health.
- Debunking the myths around soy and plant phytoestrogens.

According to the CDC, about 659,000 people in the United States die from heart disease each year. Thatβs 1 in every 4 deaths. A staggering 100 BILLION dollars were spent several years ago on stents and bypasses. But how effective are those dangerous, invasive, and costly procedures in improving the patient's quality of life? Is there an alternative?
Today's guest is Dr. Dean Ornish, the founder and president of the nonprofit Preventive Medicine Research Institute. He is a clinical professor of medicine at the University of California, San Francisco, and the author of seven books, all national bestsellers. Dr. Dean Ornish has directed revolutionary research proving that lifestyle changes can often reverse or undo the progression of many of the most common and costly chronic diseases and even begin reversing aging at a cellular level. He documented his findings in his landmark book UnDo It!
Dr. Dean Ornish studied medicine under Dr. Michael DeBakey, an American vascular surgeon and cardiac surgeon, scientist, and medical educator known for his trailblazing efforts in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases.
Today, Dr. Dean Ornish is helping people regain their health with his program, The Only Program Scientifically Proven to Reverse Heart Disease, which is reimbursed by Medicare from anywhere in the U.S. βNuff said! Let's dive into this eye-opening episode and UnDo It!
βWhen I was in medical school, we were taught that the only way to change your genes is to change your parents, meaning you can't do anything about it. But we did a study with Craig Venter, who was the first to decode the human genome, and we found that over 500 genes were changed in just three months. Same lifestyle changes turning on the good genes, turning off the bad genes in simple terms. And there are mechanisms. There is something called methylation, which is a molecule that's like a switch that can turn on or turn off a gene. Technically, the genes are the same, but the expression of the genesβif you can turn off a gene that causes cancer, then it's as though you're changing your genes. Or different proteins, histone, and non-histone proteins, they act as switches, and sirtuins and others that turn on and turn off the genes.

Is your diet keeping you sick?
Dr. James Loomis is a whole-food, plant-based internal medical practitioner spreading the message that food is the best way to combat illness and disease.
After experiencing a decline in his own health, Dr. Loomis made the switch and saw miraculous results: a significant drop in weight, cholesterol, and blood pressure in under three months.
He says that most problems that walk into his office can be traced back to inflammation and stress, often resulting from the Standard American Diet.
The former internist for both the St. Louis Cardinals and Rams now serves as the Medical Director of the Barnard Medical Center and advocates for using food -- over prescriptions -- as medicine.
In this episode, Dr. Loomis joins Alexandra and Dotsie to explain exactly how what we eat works to either heal or harm our bodies.
Youβll hear why whole foods are the best way to combat inflammation, why manipulation by the dairy industry is so dangerous, and how you can get empowered to critically evaluate medical research on your own.
This is a must-hear episode to understand why eating whole foods is as important as eating plant-based for your health.
β90% of the problems that walk into this office are fundamentally related to food, how we move, and stress. Almost all will respond to a whole-foods plant-based diet.β - Dr. James Loomis
What we discuss in this episode:
- Dotsie and Dr. Loomisβs experience presenting to athletes in Atlanta and some good signs of progress
- The health crisis that encouraged Dr. Loomis to make the switch and the amazing benefits he saw within three months
- Chronic disease can often be traced back to inflammation and stress. How is the Standard American Diet keeping us sick?
- How a whole-foods plant-based diet will heal your gut
- The lies behind βbro scienceβ and how athletes are working to lead by example
- Busting myths around the obsession with protein and calcium: IGF-1βs connection to cancer, over-consumption of protein lowering the PH of our blood, and why most people become lactose intolerant by age 5
- The science behind inflammation: Why you need to decrease your Omega-6 intake, increase your Omega-3 intake, and eliminate highly processed foods
- The truth behind the popular Chocolate Milk and Butter studies
- How to better critically evaluate medical and nutritional research, plus suggested resources from Dr. Michael Greger and David L. Katz

Is everything youβve been told about finding the perfect partner missing the mark? Beyond mere attraction, what really makes relationships endure? Today, Dr. Darren M. George joins us to challenge conventional wisdom and unveil surprising truths that can reshape your understanding of love.
As a professor of psychology, researcher, and co-author of The Compatibility Code, Dr. George has spent decades exploring what truly makes relationships thrive. His insights offer a compelling roadmap for navigating the complexities of partner choice and cultivating lasting, meaningful connections.
Join us as we explore these groundbreaking ideas and consider new perspectives to enhance your love life!
βThe younger you marry, the greater the likelihood of change, which will render you incompatible. I find, for instance, when I teach the class on marital compatibility, some years ago, if there is an 18-year-old who'd never dated, she would be so naΓ―ve they couldn't even benefit from it because they hadn't experienced enough life to know that. In that sense, that's why teen marriages have a very high non-success rate, because there is no identity. But hereβs the dealβ¦ In the in-love phase, you're intensely emotionally engaged. But in love, according to research, it lasts, on average, about two years. So what happens is you go a year and a half, you start dating someone, you fall in love with them. You go a year and a half; you get married. You got six months to go. What are you going to do for the next 59 and a half years? How are you going to keep that flame alive? How are you going to keep that relationship vibrant?β - Dr. Darren George
What we discuss in this episode:
- Key elements for building successful relationships.
- Balancing personal growth with relationship dynamics.
- The value of developing a strong identity before entering a committed relationship.
- Understanding why people often choose the wrong partner repeatedly and how to break the cycle.
- Strategies for healing after the end of a long-term relationship.
- Techniques to reduce conflict, maintain harmony, and keep your relationship vibrant.
- The strongest predictor of a healthy marriage.

Prepare to explore the groundbreaking realm of microdosing psychedelics with Paul Austin, a leading figure in the modern psychedelic movement, known for his mission to harness these substances to enhance mental health and personal growth. As the founder of The Third Wave, Paul is dedicated to educating others on the transformative potential of psychedelics, promoting their safe and intentional use to unlock creativity, boost performance, and improve well-being.
In this episode, we delve into the possible effects of microdosing to inspire behavioral change, deepen spiritual awareness, and sharpen focus. Paul also shares his experiences with psychedelics and how theyβve contributed to his healing journey and expanded sense of consciousness.
Join us for this eye-opening discussion as we explore how psychedelics might influence modern life and expand our understanding of human experience!
βMicrodosing is a very low dose of a psychedelic, and it's typically defined as a sub-perceptual or even sub-intoxicating dose levelβabout a tenth of a regular or therapeutic dose of psychedelics. And the key with microdosing is that it's done two or three times per week over a period of 30 to 45 to 60 days. We, as humans, we've been using psychedelics for thousands, if not tens of thousands of years, but largely, they've been used in ceremonial, shamanic, very high-dose containers to connect with God or source or a greater power. And microdosing is much more nascent in its discovery. It's only been talked about for the last really 10 or 15 years. And so it's a totally new take on an ancient practice.β - Paul Austin
What we discuss in this episode:
- What psychedelics are, how they work, and what qualifies as a microdose.
- The differences and commonalities between LSD, psilocybin, and ayahuasca.
- Paulβs first experience with LSD and how it shaped his perspective.
- The role of psychedelics in spirituality.
- Paul's advice for those considering microdosing.
- Safety considerations when microdosing.
- The impact of microdosing on creativity and focus.
- Microdosingβs relationship with serotonin and its potential effects on depression.
- The influence of psychedelics on ego dissolution.

Access to healthy food should be a right, but in reality, itβs often a privilege due to systemic inequalities. What if the food on your plate were not just nourishment but also a reflection of deeper power dynamics and historical struggles?
Todayβs guest, Andrea Freeman, is a trailblazer in food politics, exposing the disturbing ways food has been weaponized throughout American history. In her new book, Ruin Their Crops on the Ground, she uncovers how food policiesβfrom the Trail of Tears to todayβs school lunch programsβhave been systematically used to marginalize and oppress, with echoes of this injustice still reverberating in our modern food systems.
As a professor at Southwestern Law, her expertise in Constitutional Law and Food Policy has led her to challenge the structures that keep nutritious food out of reach for vulnerable communities. Her work has been featured in The Washington Post, The New Yorker, and NPR, and she is reshaping the conversation about race, law, and food justice. Join us as we discuss her latest book and explore how the fight for food justice is a fight for equality itself. You wonβt want to miss this eye-opening discussion on the hidden politics behind what we eat.
βThere is a long history of the United States using food as a tool of oppression and subordination as part of racial capitalism, as part of colonization and enslavement and then attempts to Americanize immigrants. That part of history had that very intentional racist tone. I mean, that's what it was, right? I mean, that was outwardly the motivation. When you talk about food oppression in the present, it is more baked into the system from that history. And I think instead of describing it as something intentional, we can think of it as something more like deliberate indifference or neglect.β - Andrea Freeman
What we discuss in this episode:
- How Professor Freeman became interested in advocating for food justice through legal work.
- The role of food in the United States' strategy to control and oppress Native American populations.
- The historical influence of corporate interests in shaping modern food policies.
- Why the fast food industry disproportionately targets BIPOC communities.
- Food inequality in the U.S. vs. the U.K.
- How schools are used as dumping grounds for surplus food commodities.

Join us for a profound conversation with the visionary artist whose groundbreaking albums like Play and iconic film tracks have shaped the soundtrack of a generation. With over 20 million albums sold, Mobyβs impact on music and society is undeniable, but his influence extends far beyond the charts. A devoted vegan and animal rights advocate for over 30 years, he has tirelessly championed environmental sustainability and ethical living, using his platform to inspire change.
In this riveting episode, Moby delves into his journey of overcoming addiction, embracing activism, and sharing how his art and beliefs have evolved over time. Weβll explore the intersections of creativity, conscience, and his commitment to making the world a better place. Donβt miss this rare opportunity to gain insight into the mind of a true cultural pioneer!
βWhen I was growing up, my parents were fighting, you know, one minute they'd be in love, the next minute they were fighting. One minute, they'd be peaceful; the next minute, they'd be violent. And as a little kid, I couldn't make sense of that. I couldn't figure out why they were so mercurial. But I looked at our animals because I grew up in this; we grew up in a basement apartment in Harlem, where there were so many animals. We had rescued lab rats, and we had dogs, and we had cats. We had this menagerie, and the animals simply made sense to me. You know, like, they never got angry without a reason. They never were violent. They never, they never seemed irrational to me, whereas the humans made absolutely no sense to me. It still continues to this day. So I would say that for me was definitely the beginning of my interest in animal rights, just recognizing the sort of, almost like the predictable, rational decency of animals.β - Moby
What we discuss in the episode:
- How sobriety and veganism influenced Mobyβs creativity and perspective on life.
- The driving forces behind his passion for animal rights.
- Mobyβs struggles with sobriety and the pivotal moment that helped him stay on track.
- How he copes with anxiety and stays grounded.
- What keeps him optimistic about the future?
- How he communicates the vegan message and how his approach has evolved over time.
- His upcoming tour and feature film.

Some oils are advertised as health foods. But no oil is really healthy, not even olive oil. If you don't want to spend your days eating steamed, poached, or boiled food and you think oil-free food is boring, this episode is for you. Today's guest, Chef Del Sroufe, will teach you how to sautΓ©, stir-fry, bake, and roast without oil or butter. With 33 years of cooking experience, Chef Del is an expert in oil-free cooking methods. At eight years old, he was creating dishes from whatever he could find in their kitchen. By thirteen, he was flaunting his culinary talents by preparing family dinners.
Chef Del worked at a premier vegetarian restaurant in Ohio, The King Avenue Coffeehouse. He later opened his bakery, Delβs Bread, serving delicious vegan pastries and assorted delicacies. In 2001, he transitioned from his bakery business to start a vegan Personal Chef Service. In 2006, Chef Del joined Wellness Forum Foods as Executive Chef, where he continued the tradition of delivering great-tasting plant-based meals to clients. He also teaches cooking classes and helps people transition to a healthy plant-based diet.
Chef Del is the author of Forks over Knives: The Cookbook, a New York Times Bestseller; Better than Vegan, the story of his struggle with weight loss and gain and how he managed to lose over 200 pounds on a low fat, plant-based diet, The China Study Quick and Easy Cookbook and The China Study Family Cookbook which contain flavorful whole food plant-based recipes.
βIt's kind of a responsibility that I feel to help others because I'm selling food to people. I've been doing that for a long time, so it seems that it's my responsibility to at least let them know what they're getting themselves into and to be as honest as possible. So yeah, I feel a responsibility for that, and I feel lucky too that I got to do this, that I got to be. And if you ever join my weight loss group - I don't know, some people don't want to join it, it's a trigger for people - but you get to see this non-judgmental environment where we support each other, and we work together. That's a special place because you don't get that. I have people in my group who don't have any support from their real life, from their family, from their friends, from their spouses, from work, so the world is kind of antagonistic to what they're trying to do, and then they're trying to negotiate that. I have cancer survivors who are just a year later getting their spouses on board and their family on board because it's about survival.β - Chef Del

Change can be intimidating, especially when it involves giving up something you love, like sugar. But what if you could enjoy delicious alternatives without feeling deprived? Todayβs guest is here to show us just how easy and satisfying it can be.
Chef AJ, a culinary instructor, author, and motivational speaker, is known for her no-nonsense approach to transforming lives through nutrient-dense recipes. On her YouTube show, Chef AJ Live, she offers expert interviews and live cooking demos that educate and inspire.
Her best-selling books, "Unprocessed" and "The Secrets to Ultimate Weight Loss," are must-reads for anyone embracing a whole-food, plant-based lifestyle. In her latest book, "Chef AJ's Sweet Indulgence: Guilt-Free Treats Sweetened Naturally with Fruit," she shares dessert recipes free from gluten, sugar, added salt, and oil, proving that healthy eating can delight your taste buds.
Her practical advice and vibrant personality have empowered countless people to take control of their health. So stay tuned as we explore her new book and discover the sweet side of healthy living!
βFruit is to our natural diet throughout human history. It's a whole food. It's found in nature. It has water, fiber, vitamins, minerals, phytochemicals, antioxidants, micronutrients. Sugar, whether it's white sugar, brown sugar, cane sugar. These are not whole foods found in nature. So all the fiber, all the nutrients have been stripped, and they really have few to no phytochemicals, antioxidants, and micronutrients. So there's a big difference because one of the things people have to understand is that fiber is only found in plants. It's not found in animal products, and it's not found in processed foods unless it's been added back in. And fiber is the reason that many people that adopt a vegan or whole food plant-exclusive diet can eat what we call ad libitum β as much as we want, as often as we want, whenever we want until comfortably full. Because fiber is what puts the brakes on overeating. And sugar has no fiber but fruit does.β - Chef AJ
What we discuss in this episode:
- Chef AJ's childhood and adult relationship with sweets.
- What makes Chef AJβs sweets delicious and healthy?
- Fruit-sweetened desserts vs. processed sweetener desserts.
- How fiber is integral to prevent overeating.
- Retraining your palate.
- The link between calorie concentration and dopamine release.
- Chef AJβs sweetness scale explained.
- How Chef AJ keeps her desserts moist without using oil.
- Chef AJβs preferred fruits for naturally sweetening recipes.
- Her favorite recipes and kitchen gadgets.

In 1980, Ingrid Newkirk co-founded People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA), revolutionizing the animal rights movement. As PETA's president, she has led the organization to become the world's largest animal rights group, known for its groundbreaking campaigns and significant societal changes. Under her leadership, PETA has conducted undercover investigations, organized high-profile protests, and engaged in corporate negotiations and legislative efforts, saving countless animalsβ lives.
Ingrid returns to our show to discuss her legacy, the challenges sheβs faced, the victories sheβs achieved, and her vision for the future. Weβll explore how her tireless advocacy has elevated global standards for compassion and humane practices. Additionally, she will share actionable steps listeners can take, both big and small, to make a meaningful impact in the fight for animal rights.
βYes, it's a bit shocking to realize that that lovely hamburger with, you know, maybe the dancing cow on the label, didn't come from anything nice at all. It came from privation and misery. So, we showed the truth. But what I would say is, what's truly shocking, what's truly extreme, what's horrifying, is what actually happens to animals. And that is what we have an obligation to keep saying to people, have a look, have a look, act as if you care, because I think you think that you're a kind person, a decent individual. You would teach your children the golden rule of do unto others as you would have them do unto you. So let's act that way. Let's not just say we care. Let's actually care. It's not really hard. So here's what you need to do.β - Ingrid Newkirk
What we discuss in this episode:
- Changes in the world since PETAβs inception.
- PETAβs successful tactics and numerous victories.
- Why animal testing is not only cruel but also yields unreliable results.
- The CARGO Act.
- Inherent flaws in the no-kill movement.
- The truth about the wool and down feather industries.
- Cruelty in the production of coconut products from Thailand, and what you can do to fight against it.
- Current PETA campaigns and how you can get involved.

In this episode, we are honored to welcome Rabbi Dr. Shmuly Yanklowitz, a beacon of compassion, justice, and spiritual wisdom.
Rabbi Shmuly is a spiritual leader and passionate advocate for animal rights and veganism. As the Founder & President of Shamayim: Jewish Animal Advocacy, he promotes ethical treatment for all beings and a plant-based lifestyle. He also founded Uri L'Tzedek, dedicated to social justice and ethical leadership, and YATOM, a foster and adoption network for children.
Author of 24 books, Rabbi Shmulyβs writings have appeared in The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, The Washington Post, and The Guardian. Newsweek has recognized him twice as one of America's Top Rabbis.
Rabbi Shmulyβs extraordinary personal commitment to compassion extends beyond his advocacy. He has donated a kidney to a stranger and, along with his wife Shoshanna, opens their home to foster children, embodying the values he teaches.
Stay tuned as we delve into an inspiring conversation with Rabbi Shmuly, exploring the profound connections between spirituality, ethics, and animal rights. You don't want to miss his insights on how to lead a life of greater purpose and impact.
βSome people think, βOh, I made it. I'm vegan. I'm done. I don't have to grow anymore.β Nope. I think that's the floor. That's the beginning of what it means to then start to morally and spiritually grow on the next level. Okay, so I'm sensitive in this way. How about all these other ways that I can be more sensitive, thoughtful, and intentional in my life? And so I view that as one area that has enabled me to go deeper in supporting other people because behavioral change is so difficult and so frustrating for people who are trying to lose weight, or people who are trying to grow in their exercise, or trying to change, you know, the way they talk to people, or how they spend their free time. And it's so hard to change even when we're so committed. And I view my vegan journey as, you know, providing some insight into how we can make baby steps towards growth.β -Rabbi Shmuly Yanklowitz
What we discuss in this episode:
- Rabbi Shmulyβs journey to veganism and the inspiration behind his advocacy.
- The impact of veganism on his role as a Rabbi.
- Jewish religious texts and their connection to veganism.
- Understanding kosher: its true meaning, history, and its relation to veganism.
- The concept of Tikkun Olam (repairing the world) and its application in Rabbi Shmuly's work.
- The dangers of self-absorption.
- Theology on human responsibility.
- The importance of living with gratitude.

Have you ever wondered what's hidden in your garden fertilizer or how organic produce is truly grown?
Our guest today is Erin Riley, the founder and CEO of Cabbage Hill organic, animal-free fertilizers. Erin's foray into the world of gardening and urban agriculture began with Hope Gardens, a landscaping company through which she has designed, installed, and maintained hundreds of gardens across Los Angeles, including those of A-list celebrities.
Frustrated by the manipulation of organic labels, Erin set out to make a real difference. Her commitment to true organic gardening standards fueled her advocacy and led to the development of a sustainable, plant-based fertilizer. By ensuring transparency and integrity, Erin is setting a new standard in organic practices.
Join us as we explore Erinβs incredible journey and insights, and learn how you can make more informed choices to protect yourself as a consumer while supporting a healthier planet.
βYou might be shocked to learn that most organic fertilizers contain byproducts from industrial animal ag, including bone meal, blood meal, feather meal, bird or bat excrement, and manure. I always say, let's get the crap out of gardening. You know, there's a lot of BS here, literally and figuratively, and we need to start advocating for organic and just turning the page a little bit for true organic, not organic because it's made from life, dead, dead animals, but organic standards that don't have chemicals and antibiotics and pesticides in them.β - Erin Riley
What we discuss in this episode:
- What fertilizer is, how it works, and why itβs crucial for new, high-yield, and edible gardens.
- Benefits of using organic vegan fertilizer.
- Horrifying ingredients found in some βorganicβ fertilizers.
- The risks posed by chemical fertilizers.
- The role of plants in regenerative agriculture.
- Composting.
- The phosphorus crisis and plant-based solutions.
- How to make your own fertilizer at home.
