Welcome to Our Hen House.

This is Marianne Sullivan.

And this is Jasmine Singer.

Thank you for joining us this week.

It just happens to be Jasmine's birthday week.

So we're celebrating big time over here.

Why did you temper yourself? I say go big.

I know you do love your birthday. It's not only my birthday week. It's my birthday day.

Well, yeah. If you're listening to this on the day this goes up. Isn't that what people do?

Immediately put down, well, don't put down your phone.

Just switch your phone to call and call Jasmine and wish her a happy birthday.

They don't have my phone number very much.

Well, then I guess I shouldn't actually give out your phone number publicly.

No, let's not do that. All of you who know who I mean, who are really, really nice people, go on to Facebook and say,

happy birthday to Jasmine. Anyway, Jasmine's guest this week is Richie Bowie, who is the senior editor

at Veg News. And because he's the senior editor at Veg News, he's really got his finger on the pulse

of everything vegan and animal rights and a whole lot more. You love this guy, don't you?

I do love Richie.

I love him so much.

We actually were talking about Huda Air on this episode because it's my birthday.

And I was like, Richie, obviously.

I used to be the senior editor of Veg News and Richie was an editor at the time.
