Customer Reviews
Speakin' out for the animals
This is a great podcast. Lauren hosts amazing guests--including Tricia Barry, the communications director of Farm Sanctuary (a stand-out episode for me)--I love the news at the beginning of the show. Worth subscribing to.
Excellent
This podcast is fantastic. Lauren is brilliant and never fails to ask compelling questions of those she interviews. There isn't any fluff in this podcast but even though the content and news is almost always negative, it is an honest reflection of the world in which we live and I always feel more informed and empowered after listening to it. I love it and highly recommend it!
Intelligent and Informative
Great guests, great subjects, great host. I learn something and am inspired and motivated with every episode. Wonderful show!
