Welcome to The Our Henhouse interview.

I'm Jasmine Singer.

I'm Mary Ann Sullivan.

And we're so excited that our next interview in our Animal Policy Alliance series is today.

And we are super excited about the woman power, the person power, the activist power

that is on our panel today. We're going to be talking about the work that is nearest and

dearest to every animal lover's heart, vegan advocacy. But before we get into that, just a really

quick reminder, our henhouse is is like consider our hen house a

universe and we have all of these like little planets and one of the planets is rising anxieties

which comes out on tuesdays the hen report is another planet that comes out on thursdays

and the long form interview which is this comes out on fridays Bonus for flock members comes out on Mondays.

And remember, we're a podcast and we're on YouTube. So please subscribe and hit like wherever

you listen. So Marian, do you want to introduce our guests today? Yes. So I have to say,

I didn't understand that whole planet analogy. I didn't, you know what? I'm so tired on it. To be

fully frank, like I don't even know what planet. I'm saying, I don't know. I don't, you know what, I'm so tired on it. To be fully frank, like, I don't even know what

planet. I don't know. I don't know what planet I'm on. But fortunately, fortunately, we don't have to

figure that out. All right. Jody Groon, who is the director of Wholesome Minnesota, drives policy

initiatives to put plant-based options on cafeteria trays and build community partnerships.

Judy Wolfe, God, I've always wanted an animal name.

My mother's last name was Fox, and I was so jealous that I got stuck with Sullivan.

Judy Wolf, who was the chief program and policy officer for humane communities for animal protection, New Mexico, will be speaking with us specifically about their Dairy's Not Fair campaign.

And Bretta Anders, who has been with us before, is the senior policy advisor at the Humane League, and she provides support to members of the Animal Policy Alliance.
