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.

Recently discovered this. Turned me into a Viva supporter overnight. Faye and Lex are an excellent double act, intelligent, positive, and they have great guests as well. Thank you.
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.
Favourite one was Russell Brand ..
