Earthling Ed on Rich Roll podcast




Today we wade neck-deep into the waters of veganism—an admittedly emotive, often divisive topic for many.

Fear not however, as these waters are warm, thanks to my esteemed guest Ed Winters, a vegan advocate and animal rights activist globally known as Earthling Ed on the internet.

Ed is an educator, public speaker, author, and content creator with a large cult following on YouTube who’s lectured at many universities and corporations—including Cambridge, Harvard, Google, Facebook, and The Economist—and has appeared across a multitude of mainstream media outlets, including the BBC.

In addition, Ed is the co-founder and co-director of Surge, a non-profit animal sanctuary in the rural Midlands of England. In 2018 he opened Unity Diner, a 100% vegan restaurant and cocktail bar in London that donates all of its profits to animal causes, along with No Catch Co., a growing plant-based fish and chips restaurant and soon-to-be chain.

The occasion for today’s conversation is Ed’s new book, This is Vegan Propaganda (And Other Lies the Meat Industry Tells You), a tremendous breakdown on veganism from all vantage points for both skeptics and the converted.
