In a candid and thought-provoking episode of the Viva! Vegan podcast, British singer-songwriter and actress Kate Nash delves into her personal journey towards veganism, offering insights into the complexities of ethical living in today's world. Known for her hit single "Foundations" and her role in Netflix's GLOW, Nash discusses how her transition from vegetarianism to veganism was influenced by both personal experiences and a desire to challenge systemic cruelty. Drawing inspiration from the film Okja, Nash reflects on the emotional impact it had on her decision to adopt a plant-based lifestyle. She emphasizes that for her, veganism is not merely a dietary choice but a form of resistance against a system that commodifies life and perpetuates exploitation. Nash also critiques the vegan industry's embrace of mass production, cautioning against the commercialisation of ethical choices. Throughout the episode, Nash's unfiltered honesty and commitment to authenticity shine through, making this conversation a compelling listen for anyone interested in the intersections of ethics, lifestyle, and activism.

Are You A Charlotte?

Are You A Charlotte?

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
