Freedom of Species – Talking About Sentientism

I had the pleasure of being a guest on another podcast recently to talk about Sentientism – hoping to reach new audiences as we work to persuade 7.7 billion more humans to adopt “evidence, reason and compassion for all sentient beings”.

Freedom of Species – with Nick Pendergrast
Listen to our episode here.

Freedom of Species is co-hosted by previous Sentientism podcast guest Nick Pendergrast. It’s a 3CR radio show (and podcast) about (mostly non-human) animals.

The show explores all disciplines that have a fascination and an appreciation of animals and a passion to fight for a better world for all animals: conservation, philosophy, sociology, art, literature, science, film, history, politics and the vegan and animal rights movements.

The show is hosted by a team of Melbourne-based animal advocates, presenting local & international news, interviews and music from this vibrant social justice movement.

If you’re really a sucker for punishment here’s the full list of all the podcasts, big and small, that have covered Sentientism. Of course there’s our Sentientism podcast too – 89 inspiring episodes so far.
