Hey, you guys. Today's episode is brought to you by Gray Wolf Press, publisher of Barn 8,

the new novel by Deb Olin Unferth. Barn 8 is Vegan's Ocean 11. It stars a million chickens.

It's about a group of washed-up radicals trying to find redemption by attempting the most ambitious

heist in animal liberation history.

This is a rye and brilliant novel,

painstakingly researched and daringly imaginative.

It covers chicken intelligence, bird evolution,

factory farm conditions,

and so much more.

Warning, it might make you a vegan.
