In this episode of the BRIDGE podcast, I speak with Magnus Vinding who writes on topics such as antispeciesism, veganism, suffering focused ethics, consciousness and more. In this conversation we do a lot of vegan shop talk including ways of eating, thoughts on "fake meat", cultured meat, and methylcobalamin vs cyanocobalamin before we get into the nitty gritty of utilitarian thought experiments. Toward the end I inquire about how artists and musicians can contribute to movements aimed at reducing suffering and we end the conversation on contemplative practice as a way to cultivate compassion. Here are the videos from Animal Ethics that Magnus refers to in the conversation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UOQNclA8JyU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jOBeQOz1Hzw Here's the Animal Ethics YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCko1rYsrC9nBTjozImX-FEw The Dr. Gregor video on B12 that Magnus brought up: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aT7m9RsPJYM&t=147&authuser=1 ...and Gregor on coffee: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL5TLzNi5fYd-ewr1tj8sc0iLpZwriMRt3
