  • Just telling the truth

    I enjoyed every episode I’ve listened to. No matter how short. People working for Viva are working for animals, for their welfare. They are telling us the truth about living conditions of majority of farm animals in the UK. I’m greatful to all of them for that. Unfortunately it’s not like in Countryfile, which I believed for far too long. Majority of animals are confined in factories. Here in the UK. Not many of them on the green fields when you drive by. Over 1 billion killed in the UK a year t... more

  • Melaine Joy interview 1/3/23

    This was such a brilliant podcast, as they all are. I related to the secondary trauma and how this has affected my life. We as vegans know about the trauma of being wistness to the atrocities within the animal agriculture industries, but to have it validated by Malaine was incredibly reassuring. It was good for her to share the impact animal ag is having on the planet too. These podcasts, and other vegan podcasts, are the only thing that keeps me grounded and offers hope. Even after over twenty ... more

  • Really inspiring!

    This podcast is what encourages me to go out and do my 4km walk every morning. I normally hate exercise but this podcast gets me out there so I can listen to it! I started listening about a year ago and started from the first episode. I am now nearly caught up!

    There are some very interesting guests and topics. The downside (if it is one!) is that I keep buying books by people who are on and who I find fascinating.
