Matt Johnson, animal rights activist and press coordinator for Direct Action Everywhere (DxE), joins us for this episode to talk about the dangers, health risks, and immoral nature of factory farming. He recently went viral for duping Fox News into thinking he was the CEO of Smithfield Foods; the largest pork producer in this country, with the goal of bringing awareness to the role of factory farming when it comes to disease and pandemics. 99% of all meat produced in the USA comes from factory farms, and that's just the truth of it. We aren't here to shame anyone or to change anyone's food consumption habits, but we are here to tell you what you're actually consuming. This episode isn't super graphic, but it is real, and it is shocking - this is the reality of what's happening and we all deserve to have the facts.
"If only we can overcome cruelty, to human and animal, with love and compassion we shall stand at the threshold of a new era in human moral and spiritual evolution - and realize, at last, our most unique quality: humanity." - Jane Goodall
