Welcome to Our Hen House.

This is Jasmine Singer.

And this is Marianne Sullivan.

And this week, Marianne will be speaking with filmmaker and amazing activist Ryuji Chua.

Among other things, he will be telling us about his

recent extraordinary appearance on The Daily Show with Trevor Noah, who isn't on the Daily Show anymore,

and he will be talking about fish. That's what he was talking about on the Daily Show and why we

should care about them. He was such an incredible genius on this show.

I just sat there with, like, my chin on my chest.

Yeah, I'm sure you can find it online,

and if you haven't seen it,

I highly recommend listening to it.

As I highly recommend listening to this interview

because he's a really good messenger.

He just really knows how to message this so well.

And we talk a lot about that and how much thought he's put into it. And also about the film he made about Fish, which is really extraordinary. And the other film projects he's worked on with

Adam Wrights. He is a real gift to the movement. Yes, totally. And we will also

link to it in the show notes if you want to watch it, which I recommend for sure. So before we

get to our interview with him, I can't believe it is almost the holidays. And I have to say,

as someone who celebrates both Hanukkah and Christmas and considers myself an atheist Jew, it is interesting to me that it is overlapping. Hanukkah is overlapping with Christmas this year, which brings me a lot of joy, because I always get annoyed at the world when Hanukkah is happening at the very, very beginning of the month, and then Christmas is the end, and I sort of feel like I don't know there's like a

disconnect but now we get to do it all at the same time that is a hard burden for you to carry I know

but I agree it's always nice when they come together and you did a holiday thing this past weekend
