    In My Life written by Paul McCartney & John Lennon, performed by Judy Collins


    "But of all these friends and lovers

    There is no one compares with you.

    And these memories lose their meaning

    When I think of love as something new.

    Tho' I know I'll never lose affection

    For people and things that went before,

    I know I'll often stop and think about them,

    In my life I love you more."

  • INGRID NEWKIRK: the end of suffering
    May 30 2024

    Ingrid Newkirk is an author, activist, and president of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA), the world's largest animal rights organisation. PETA famously proclaims that animals are not ours to eat, wear, experiment on, use for entertainment, or abuse in any way.


    In this episode Peter & Kasia speak to Ingrid and explore PETA's achievements, and the compromises Ingrid has had to make in order to reduce the vast universe of suffering that humans inflict on animals, and how if these ideals could be implemented throughout society, there could be revolutionary change.


    Ingrid's impact in the Animal Rights movement is unparalleled, and she is an incredible storyteller. We hope you will be inspired by this conversation.
