    You can make a difference by donating to Jake's Patreon. All of the money goes to a different animal sanctuary each month, and your membership entitles you to a vote on where the money goes.

    Hey Pickles!

    Well, did you have global Microsoft outage on your 2000 bingo card? Neither did we!

    Due to the outage, Christine's Sister & her husband were unable to fly home. Christine has been pet sitting for them, and needs to extend her stay out of town.

    This means she was unable to make it back to the Ol' Compassion & Cucumbers studio so that we could record a new episode!

    We're releasing this replay of Ep 104 of the show. This episode is worth another listen as we discuss the ways that the dairy industry is influencing youth!

    We also talk about a student that joins a law suit against the USDA, and her school district after her school prevented her from handing out information about the effects of dairy on the heath of her fellow students.

    We have a recipe from our From Our Vegan Kitchen series that's near & dear to Christine's heart.

    We also have a Listener Shout Out, and all the usual shenanigans that you've come to know & love (hopefully 😊)

    Thanks so much for your understanding in this situation, and enjoy the episode!

    We'll talk to you NEXT TUESDAY!

    Love, Sam & Christine

    Our Vegan Org of the Week is Vegan Forum. Check it out here: https://www.veganforum.org

    Our Restaurant SOS goes out to Strong Hearts in Syracuse & Buffalo NY! This is one of our favorite vegan spots, and we were thrilled to see that they were nominated by listener, Michelle V!

    In our Noteworthy segment, we'll give you an update on the 2024 Farm Bill. As usual, there are issues that the right & the left can't seem to agree on.

    Our Main Topic this week is a look at the possibility of a vegan world. Is it possible? What would need to happen? How can we achieve global veganism?
    We answer some of these questions, and it's a pretty great discussion.

    Our Restaurant SOS nominee this week is Earthy Picks in Orlando Florida.
    Check out their amazing menu here: https://earthypicks.com

    Our Vegan Org of the Week is The Open Sanctuary Project. This wonderful organization provides information & resources to those wanting to start an animal sanctuary!
    Find out more about their work here: https://opensanctuary.org

    We also have a new Listener Shout Out, and a heavy dose of our usual silliness!

    Thank you so much for listening. We hope you enjoy the show!

    Love, Sam & Christine
