Our Hen House show

Summary: <a href="http://www.ourhenhouse.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/PicMonkey-Collage3.jpg"></a>Welcome to the 284th episode of Our Hen House, featuring an interview with Victoria Moran and a review by Alessandra Seiter.<br> Joining us today is longtime vegan and twelve-time author <a href="http://mainstreetvegan.net/">Victoria Moran</a>, who will be chatting with us about her brand new book, <a href="http://mainstreetvegan.net/books/">The Good Karma Diet</a>. Whether you’re a new vegan or a seasoned one, Victoria’s insights, experience, and positivity will embolden and invigorate you.<br> Then, Our Hen House’s own Alessandra Seiter — of the blog <a href="http://chickpeasandchange.wordpress.com/">Chickpeas &amp; Change</a> — will help us to commemorate Father’s Day with a thoughtful look at non-human, male animals who are exploited for their sexual reproduction capacities and for other gender-related reasons. This segment won’t be all womp-womp, though! In her usual fashion, Alessandra will inspire us with some truly beautiful rescue stories.<br> All that, vegan banter, and of course, current events from the world of animal rights. There’s lots of “Rising Anxieties” today, too, of course!<br> You can listen to our podcast directly on our website (beneath this paragraph!) or you can listen and subscribe on <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/our-hen-house/id350069146" target="_blank">iTunes</a> or <a href="http://www.stitcher.com/podcast/jasmin-singer/our-hen-house" target="_blank">Stitcher</a>!
