    Animetrics is a women-led research and capacity-building organization, founded in 2023 by two economists from Türkiye, Gülbike Mirzaoğlu & Sueda Evirgen. They specialize in economics, impact evaluation, and research tailored to local contexts. They help animal advocates, especially in the Majority World (also called the ‘Global South') and Muslim communities, use evidence to strengthen their work. Most of the world’s farmed animals live in these regions, yet resources for advocacy are limited. Animetrics is here to change that.

  4. Why Vegans Are Smarter. With Chris Bryant | Ep. 111

    Why Vegans Are Smarter. With Chris Bryant | Ep. 111

    Today, we’re asking a fun—and maybe slightly provocative—question: are vegans smarter than most people? You’ve probably seen those articles listing brilliant minds who were vegetarian for ethical reasons—people like Einstein, Tolstoy, Mary Shelley, or Leonardo da Vinci. And if you’ve been with us for a while, you might remember episode 37, where we talked about one of those great minds: the literary genius Al‑Ma’arri, often considered the first vegan in recorded history. So today we’re wondering: did their intellect lead them to the ethical principles we hold? And beyond these outliers, do we see the same pattern in the general population? To explore this, I’m joined by Chris Bryant. Chris is a social scientist and an expert on meat reduction and alternative proteins. He leads Bryant Research, and he’s also a prolific creator on YouTube. I actually joined him during one of his livestreams to record this episode—it was my first time doing a livestream, so that was an adventure in itself. You can find links to connect with Chris in the episode notes. In our conversation, we talk about the relationship between intelligence and veganism, but we also get into psychopaths, the dangers of animal activism, cannibalism, his experiences debating the “meat heads” of the internet, and a whole lot more.

    What If the World’s Religions Stood Up for Animals? With Joyce D'Silva | Ep. 110

    Have you ever considered what it would mean if global religions echoed and supported our fight for animals? To explore this question, I have the honor of welcoming a true hero of the movement: Joyce D'Silva. Joyce has been vegan for 52 years—longer than I’ve been alive—and her contributions to animals are extraordinary. She wrote one of the first-ever vegan cookbooks, lead the adoption of major animal welfare legislation in the UK and Europe, and continues her work, to this day as Ambassador Emeritus for Compassion in World Farming and Patron of the Animal Interfaith Alliance. She is also the author of Animal Welfare in World Religion: Teaching and Practice. I highly recommend getting multiple copies —one for yourself and your enjoyment, and others to share with the religious leaders of your town. Beyond religion, Joyce and I discuss the nature of evil, the idea of publicly naming wealthy factory farm and slaughterhouse owners, the most surreal moment of her life, and much more.

    The End of Factory Farming!? With Bruce Friedrich | Ep. 109

    Do you think ending factory farming is possible? If yes, what form of activism do you believe will stop factory farming for good? Institutional change? Street protests? Legal reforms? Well, our guest today, Bruce Friedrich, founder of the Good Food Institute, thinks ending factory farming is possible — but activism is not the answer. For him, the solution to this issue is cultivated meat: the perfect replacement for regular meat, because it would taste the same, cost the same, but with no health risks, environmental damage and certainly no animal suffering. In this episode, we discussed the new McVeggie that has launched in Canada, the consolidation of power in the hands of a few big food corporations, the Campbell Soup 3D printed lab-grown chicken debacle, and the opposition to cultivated meat by some animal advocates. Many of them have appeared on the show. I will add links in the description to all those episodes, including an amazing debate hosted by United Poultry Concerns featuring Bruce.
