  • Kristi Noem turned me vegan

    I just found this podcast in February 2026. After listening to a few episodes I realized it was the only material I could listen to that calmed my nerves instead of jangling them. It’s such a respite from the constant cruelty and sadism of the Trump administration. I had been eating no mammals and many plant based ingredients but was still eating some dairy, poultry, fish, and eggs. I am now a vegan. It is giving me a lot of peace. Thank you!
