All Things Vegan: Our interview with Ocean Robbins

All Things Vegan: Our interview with Ocean Robbins

Here’s an overview of our April 24 All Things Vegan show. I spent most of my day getting the show notes together.

Join the Food Revolution with environmental and peace activist Ocean Robbins.

In this episode, we talk with Ocean Robbins, an internationally known speaker on the topics of peace and the environment. He tells us about the upcoming Food Revolution Summit, a free online event organized together with his father John Robbins, author of Diet for a New America. The Food Revolution Summit brings together revolutionary thinkers and visionaries to talk about today’s food crisis and healthy eating and living.

We also warn you about a con artist who sets up bogus organizations targeting animal welfare, health, and environmental groups. And, we give you an update on our Earth Day celebration.

And, of course, we highlight the latest News from the Vegan Frontier, let you know about vegan related happenings in and around Central Oregon, and more!

My favorite search term of the last month is this one. Maybe I stopped somebody else from calling the cops on their neighbors just because their step-son had a basketball hoop on the street next to their driveway.

Anti-procrastination Monday

Anti-procrastination Monday

Today, instead of anti-procrastination Wednesday (Flylady), I had an anti-procrastination Monday. Still didn’t get as much accomplished as I wanted, but I did pretty good:

  • Got the twins all registered for this session’s extra curricular activities: Track, Rock Band, Choir, Spanish. {2 forms, 3 conversations in addition to discussing with the twins.} Scholarships plus volunteering will pay for these.
  • Posted some social media about Wednesday’s SharePoint user group meeting.
  • Called to get a request in for a VegNet booth for Earth Day.
  • Set up a radio interview, including prepping questions.
  • Talked to the station about underwriting, then talked to a natural products company that wants to sponsor our radio show. Connected the two.
  • Went to my first yoga class in several weeks. {Restorative, because I didn’t know how much I could handle after being sick and with the asthma issues I’m having: I did fine.}
  • Did more news research for the show.
  • Set up a time for a job interview later in the week (Woot!)
  • Purchased, downloaded, and installed tax software.

The news for the show is slow slow slow

The news for the show is slow slow slow

I spent a good chunk of Saturday and pretty much all of today researching, recording, and editing news for Tuesday’s All Things Vegan show. We had some equipment problems at the studio which slowed us down a bit, but damn, there has to be a way to make the process more efficient. Maybe we should switch to live shows?!

In spite of my whining, the show will get done—it always does.
