MikeyPod 252 | Author Jeffrey Marsh

Jeffrey Marsh is a author, speaker, and non-binary activist who uses the Internet as their medium with tremendous success. Jeffrey was a huge success on (sadly, now defunct) Vine, but their social media success extends well beyond that with over 350 million views of their positive and inclusive message. Jeffrey’s best-selling book, How To Be You, made them the first non-binary author with a “Big 5” publisher, Penguin Random House.

Jeffrey and I talk about veganism, cosmic tasks, and the inspiration behind their book. I am absolutely enthralled with Jeffrey’s philosophy and the positivity they pour into the world. I loved this interview so. I know you will, too.
At the top of the show, I reflect on a protest I attended last week during which we occupied the lobby of the New York City Department of Health building, and check in with the latest on the recording of my forthcoming The Animal Album.

MikeyPod 251 | Podcaster Macken

Just about 48 hours after I met Macken on Twitter (yes! it’s still a thing) we were Skyping our way through this great interview for the podcast. Macken is the host of the brand new Species podcast, which teaches you everything you’d ever want to know about a given animal. A committed vegan, Macken combines his love of podcasting with his passion for vegan advocacy to make this incredibly listenable and educational podcast. 
At the top of the show, I reflect on last week’s massive Marc Jacobs protest at New York Fashion week, and give the latest on my upcoming album and book.

MikeyPod 250 | Photojournalist Jo-Anne McArthur

I had the privilege of meeting photojournalist Jo-Anne McArthur last fall at The Compassion Arts and Culture & Animals Foundation Festival. Jo-Anne is the creator of We Animals, a project which documents, through photography, animals in the human environment. She has won numerous awards, is widely published, and is the subject of the documentary film, The Ghosts in Our Machine.
Hearing Jo-Anne talk about her work was a profound experience that continues to guide my way through my creative path. As an animal activist, it’s easy to wind up in a pretty hopeless place. I hope this conversation with Jo-Anne lifts you like it did me.
Thanks to Jo-Anne and Lantern Books, I’ll be giving away a copy of Captive later this week! Keep an eye on my Twitter page for details!
