Meet Jeremy Bobbin, a Bend teen inspired by Gary Yourofsky to go vegan; And a trip to the local livestock auction
In this episode, we talk with Jeremy Bobbin, a teenager living in Bend, Oregon who became vegan after hearing a speech by Gary Yourofsky about the benefits of a vegan lifestyle. He thought about the things he’d heard and it made sense to him. So he started sharing what he’d learned with his family, and it made sense to them too. And they started creating vegan meals together.
We also bring you News from the Vegan Frontier. You’ll hear about a teenager who’s become an advocate for elephants, and a cardiologist’s reasons for why he’s vegan. We discuss the difference between “organic” and “veganic,” and Barb shares what she experienced at a livestock auction.
And, of course, we highlight other News from the Vegan Frontier, let you know about vegan related happenings in and around Central Oregon, and more.
