I took over as host of Animal Matters over five years ago and slowly the program evolved into into what it has become. Every week, a new guest was brought onto the program to talk about the topic at hand, be it puppy mills, factory farms, books about cats or child and adult slavery. What a fantastic way to get the word out and ultimately make people more aware of the world around them.
For me, the bonus was hearing from you, the listener. Someone once called me and told me that they would no longer consume dairy because of what they had heard that day on the program. Another listener said they forced themselves to listen to it even though it was really hard to, and their lives were forever changed by my program. I could not ask for a bigger benefit than that.
It is with a heavy heart that I hang my hat and say goodbye as host of Sentients. After much contemplation, it has become time for me to focus on other aspects of my life.
Thank you, dear listeners, for five wonderful years and lending your ear from time to time.
Keep an eye on this website. I may use it to actually write something!
