Welcome to Our Hen House. This is Jasmine Singer. This is Marianne Sullivan. Thank you so much for joining us this week. Marianne has a wonderful interview with someone we have known and loved for a long time and who has written a book that is truly

going to make a difference. Peter Brandt is the only person I know who can combine factory

farming and law and humor. His new book is indefensible, Adventures of a Farm Animal Protection

Lawyer, and you're going to want to read it.

Peter is such a funny guy.

His humor is very understated.

It's very quiet.

It's a slow burn, but he's really funny.

So on this bonus segment, you'll be hearing more of my conversation with Peter.

And as always, if you're a flock member, you'll get that link to the bonus segment in your email on the Tuesday after this podcast goes up or you can always find it on the flock Facebook group.

If you are not a member of the flock and you can afford it, you can join for $10 a month at our henhouse.org slash donate.

We've been doing our flock Friday Zoom calls on Fridays at 4 p.m. Eastern, which is an extra COVID time feature for us.

Sometimes it's just the flock, and sometimes we feature special guests. Sometimes they are guests

that were just guests on the Our Henhouse podcast, so you can ask them the questions that we didn't

ask. So check out the flock Facebook group for updates or write to us at info at our henhouse.org.

So before we get to the interview, we have a few things to chat about.

I'm looking forward to talking to you about this.

Last week, I had mentioned that I was recording my audio book that week.

So that's done.

So check that off the list. This is the audio book for my forthcoming book, The Veg News Guide to Being a Fabulous Vegan. And it's coming out in

December. It was authored by myself in partnership with Veg News. It's through Hashet. Hachette.

I was told not to say, not to say ha, but ha, to say ha but ha ha ha shet yes yeah if there's one thing
