"Our Hen House produces resources that you can use in order to find your own way to change the world for animals. Using video, audio, interviews, reviews, and the written word, it provides daily updates on what you need to create change. Changemakers come in all shapes and sizes -- artists, grassroots activists, academics, lawyers, students, business moguls, media darlings, etc. No matter what your niche is, Our Hen House aims to give you what you need to be part of a new world for animals." - Jasmin Singer and Mariann Sullivan, the hens of Our Hen House
Episode 9: “… the health of the chickens.”
Welcome to ninth podcast episode of Our Hen House!
In today's episode, we will discuss how to react when people tell you how much they “looove” their meat, and what to do when they pull out the “humane” card. Then, we will interview the truly fabulous Joshua Katcher – founder of The Discerning Brute. Joshua will talk about cavemen, cooking, and how to be a real man. In the news, we will discuss a positive development about puppy mills in Iowa, and the big news out of Hollywood. Finally, we will review Nellie McKay's take on Doris Day — two women who share in common so much soul; their voices are as likely to be raised in song as they are to be raised in protest against animal abuse.
