Welcome back! Tonight's guest on The Daily Show is Gene Baur and the panelists on the Nightly Show are Joy Reid, and Mario Batali.
Gene Baur is an activist, author, and president and co-founder of Farm Sanctuary, the first animal rescue organization dedicated to farmed animals. He is on tonight to discuss his latest book
Living the Farm Sanctuary Life: The Ultimate Guide to Eating Mindfully, Living Longer, and Feeling Better Every Day
Gene Baur, the cofounder and president of Farm Sanctuary, the nation's leading farm animal protection organization, knows that the key to happiness lies in aligning your beliefs with your actions. In this definitive vegan and animal-friendly lifestyle guide, he and Gene Stone, author of Forks Over Knives, explore the deeply transformative experience of visiting the sanctuary and its profound effects on people's lives. The book covers the basic tenets of Farm Sanctuary life-such as eating in harmony with your values, connecting with nature wherever you are, and reducing stress-and offers readers simple ways to incorporate these principles into their lives.
Living the Farm Sanctuary Life also teaches readers how to cook and eat the Farm Sanctuary way, with 100 extraordinarily delicious recipes selected by some of the organization's greatest fans-chefs and celebrities such as Chef AJ, Chloe Coscarelli, Emily Deschanel, and Moby.
Coupled with heartwarming stories of the animals that Farm Sanctuary has saved over the years, as well as advice and ideas from some of the organization's biggest supporters, Living the Farm Sanctuary Life is an inspiring, practical book for readers looking to improve their whole lives and the lives of those around them-both two- and four-legged.
It sounds interesting. I may have read some of his work while I was in college, I took a philosophy and ethics course that focused on animal rights and the treatment of animals in research. I am not against eating meat but I am against factory farms. All of the small farms here in town don't mistreat animals and would not tolerate it. It is possible to raise pigs, chicken or cows for food without subjecting them to torturous conditions, but it costs more. Free range turkey tastes so much better than that frozen thing in the grocery store, it is amazing.

I really wish they would release the full guest list earlier.
That's right, Larry is no longer at risk of being baby birded, it is about what he will be wearing to host, either a suit of armor for the Knightly Show, or Spandex. I am rooting for the armor so make it happen Wisconsin.
