Welcome to The Hour Head House podcast. I'm Jasmine Singer.

I'm Mary Ann Sullivan.

And we're so excited today. It's Flock Friday, which is that time of month, not that time of month, but the time of month where you are bringing in a special guest

and inviting our flock to be here to ask questions and watch it live. So if this is of interest

to you and you're a flock member, we hope to see you at a future one. And if this is of interest

to you and you are not a flock member, then check out all of the things we have to offer over at our henhouse.org slash support.

We are a nonprofit and we really appreciate those of you who are able to support us in all of the ways, including the ones that involve sharing the message about our henhouse because we've been doing this for 16 years now.

And it's really fascinating to me how much the movement is

changing and growing. And I want to make sure that we're able to continue to capture people who

care about changing the world for animals to listen to our program and to be guests on it.

Marian, why am I talking so much? I have no idea. I think I'm nervous. Like,

move on. Okay, I'm moving on. All right. So, thank you again for those of you who are here,

but especially to our guest today, who is Ben Williamson. And I just want to tell you about Ben a little

bit and then we'll welcome him to the show. Ben is the executive director of Animal Outlook and has previously worked with PETA, World Animal Protection, and Compassion

in World Farming USA. And he's here to not only catch us up in general about what's happening

at Animal Outlook, which is an organization we really love, but also to tell us about an investigation that they recently did that blew the lid off of RFK Jr.'s

favorite beverage, which is raw milk. Oh my God, gross. I'm so excited to welcome to our

Hanna's Ben Williamson. Welcome to our Hennows, Ben. Thank you so much, Jasmine. I'm so happy to be here. I'm so

grateful to speak to you. I've been a fan for a long time and to see all of your flock. Really great to see all these faces and I can't wait to answer your questions. Well, I can't wait for you to answer their questions, but before that, I can't wait for you to answer ours. So let's just jump right in.

I have to say, I never knew that there was a such thing as raw milk being sold until pretty recently.

And I still don't know that much about it.

But before we get into the details, can we start by having you tell us what raw milk is?
