Our guest Dom Thompson is a vegan athlete, wellness warrior, speaker, entrepreneur, medical field professional, dog-daddy, and so much more. In this episode we dive deep into his story of hitting rock bottom—going from dealing drugs on the streets of Chicago and landing in prison, to kneeling on the floor of his cell and choosing to do no harm, become vegetarian (and ultimately vegan), and change his life.

Plant-based doctor Matt Nagra joins us to discuss popular health trends (like the keto diet, paleo diet, low-carb eating, collagen supplements, and more). He also dispels common myths about health and nutrition and provides his tips for eating healthfully and preventing disease.

What happens when an 80-year-old goes vegan? Today's guest shares his journey from big time meat eater to herbivore, how he has lost over 25 pounds in a couple of months, and how his body feels better overall after embracing on a plant-based diet.

Making sustainable and eco-friendly choices can be a lot easier than you may think. In this episode, we share how you can make a big environmental impact with the least amount of time, effort, and money. From shopping in bulk to reusable paper towels and even toilet paper, we talk about the swaps we've made and which ones we recommend for you.

Stocking your kitchen with tools that will make your cooking and life easier is so important. With a million kitchen gadgets on the market, we go through our favorite must-haves in this episode. From Instant Pots to high-powered blenders, we'll help you figure out what is worth investing in.

What's it like when your child comes home and announces that they're vegan? In this special episode we're taking your deeper into our personal lives to meet our family—Toni's mom and Michelle's mom-in-law—who share what it was like being launched into a whole new culinary territory and have a sudden radical change in their family dinners. We hope this episode helps both the vegans and the family-of-vegans as we approach the holidays.

Our new book, The Friendly Vegan Cookbook, is out! In this episode we'll give you the low-down on our new book, why we wrote it, what it has been like to publish a cookbook during covid, and some funny and emotional stories along the way.
