  • Love all the great information!!!

    I have been listening to this podcast for a few years now and it is incredibly inspirational for me. I always learn something new. Sometimes just a nugget like a food I could add to a dish that I hadn’t thought of. But there is always something. I love the inspirational stories people tell on why and how they started their journey on becoming more plant-based. Hearing about the latest science and statistics is also greatly appreciated. Keep up the great work you do!

  • Same Old, Same Old

    I followed this podcast for a year but found it to be pretty repetitive. The content is good but please, oh please, change up the host! Will likely unfollow for a second time.

  • My favourite podcast in the world!

    I absolutely love this podcast because I feel supported and encouraged to eat healthy whole plant-based foods. I also support animal kindness and am against animal abuse or environmental pollution which occur through animal exploitation. In one episode Dr. Neal Barnard said “Leave animals alone” - and that really stuck with me! I can’t recommend this podcast enough, it’s life-changing!

  • I’m all in

    I have been a Vegan for one week as of today! I have thought about taking the leap several times, but felt like it would just be too difficult to avoid animal products. After listening to this podcast (some episodes over and over), I decided I had to make this decision. I had ulcerative colitis for 13 years- and eventually gave up my colon and rectum. With an ostomy, I found I could finally eat! I gained about 50 pounds and my health (and self-esteem) has suffered. I have a hard time staying hyd... more
