Our second episode quite literally puts the lens on climate as we spotlight the 24th annual Planet in Focus International Environmental Film Festival (PIF), running from October 12th-22nd at Toronto's Paradise Theatre. PIF executive director Katherine Bruce speaks with us about the continued and growing importance of Canada's largest and longest running environmental film festival and this year's program of shorts, speakers and feature-length films. Filmmaker Deirdre Leowinata discusses her film Keepers of the Land and its themes of reclamation and reconciliation. We are also joined by Liz Marshall and Alfonso Salinas on the premiere of their powerful feature-length film, s-yéwyáw: Awaken. Speaking about this year's Planet in Focus Film Festival, Bruce says: “This year's program represents something that's broadened our definition of environment enormously over the last probably eight years, to include social justice, climate justice is racial justice … We really decided this year to create a tighter program with as many panels and speakers, filmmakers present as possible … People long for connection when they've seen these films that we present. They come away with questions. They come away with concerns. They come away with a desire to be involved, to be engaged with the issues … And that's what I think is so beneficial about always offering an audience an avenue, but also a space – a space to gather.” On her festival short, Keepers of the Land, Leowinata says: “I hope that it'll get people really excited about what's happening in Canada. Because this is just one Indigenous community in Canada, and there are so many other communities who are doing work like the Kitasoo Xai'xais Nation, and who are really moving the needle in terms of Indigenous-led Conservation, and that's what our film is about. ” Reflecting on S-YéwYáw AWAKEN, Salinas says: “We've gone on this journey where we've learned so much about each other and what happened on the film, on and off the film, it was a lot of healing. And now we get to share that story with the world, which I think is the most important thing. ” The 24th annual Planet in Focus International Film Festival, running until October 22nd in Toronto at the Paradise Theatre (1006 Bloor St West). Check out s-yéwyáw: Awaken for future viewing dates and locations.

In Sentientist Conversations we talk about the two most important questions: “what's real?” & “who matters?” Sentientism is "evidence, reason & compassion for all sentient beings." The video of our conversation is here on YouTube. We discuss: 00:00 Welcome 2:23 Jo's Intro - Striving to be open, active, helping, empathic, compassionate, humble - Founding We Animals Media "What was once me with camera is now me & 15 staff & over 100 contributing photographers globally" - "My own ethos about being generous in the world" 3:57 What's Real? - #catholic background but not very religious family - "Know the stories, know the moralistic tales... which are largely quite good & translate across many religions... do unto others... take care of one another" - "I am personally #atheist / #agnostic atheist... I do have a very #spiritual sense of the world... did I just contradict myself? I don't think so." - "Everything is interconnected... I am from the earth and will go back to the earth." - "It's a beautiful system this earth has evolved over billions of years... I am in awe of that." - "If I have a spiritual leaning it's towards reference for the earth" - "My dad commented... I seemed like an earth worshipper... indigenous ideology? pagan ideology?" - "I go through the world in awe of what is around me" - "You protect what you love... I do love the plants... trees, birds in the trees & the old dog I adopted & other people..." - "Perhaps that reverence has led me to be a full time activist for others" - "There were no clashes (with supernatural religious beliefs)... it just seemed to me that the scientific experiment is what holds truest to me... how biology works... how the cosmos works... I just gravitated towards that" - "3 of my 4 parents are very religious now... we don't talk about it very much because we disagree on some major things" - "They feel that I will go to hell if I don't find Jesus so they pray for me... yet we have a gorgeous, wonderful, close relationship" - "We disagree on these things but we can still love one another" - "It was quite a religion free zone at my house. I was free to develop my worldviews." - "My parents guided me but also took a back seat to the things that were apparently precious to me... protecting others" 14:22 What & Who Matters? xx A Better Future? ...and much more.

Species Unite will be back next week, June 2nd, with a brand new season. Until then, we are re-sharing some of our favorite episodes. Today's is a conversation with Jo-Anne McArthur. Jo-Anne McArthur is an award winning photojournalist and the founder of We Animals Media. For 20 years she has been photographing and bearing witness to our complex relationship with animals. She's worked in over 60 countries in just about every industry one can imagine - including: fur farms, factory farms, bear bile farms, zoos, rodeos, circuses, and marine parks with the mission to make the lives of these invisible animals visible. Her images tell the stories of unseen suffering, the stories of what happens when we stop paying attention, of what hopelessness looks like, and of thousands of little lives that would have otherwise gone unnoticed. She is also co-founder of the Unbound Project and the author of two books, We Animals and Captive. And, she was the subject of Liz Marshall's acclaimed documentary, The Ghosts in Our Machine. I have been a super-fan of Jo-Anne's for years, so it felt like a real honor to be able to spend this time with her. I learned a lot in this conversation, about suffering, about empathy, and mostly, about grace. I hope that you will be as moved by Jo-Anne and her work as I am.

Les produits laitiers sont-ils nos amis pour la vie ? Avec mon invitée Élise Desaulniers, autrice et chercheuse indépendante et Directrice générale de la SPCA de Montréal, on a fait le tour des mythes qui entourent l'industrie laitière qu'elle examine et réfute dans son livre Vache à lait. Dix mythes de l'industrie laitière. La grille d'analyse du carnisme s'applique particulièrement bien à la question des produits laitiers, car elle montre que contrairement aux fausses croyances entretenues par des décisions politiques, du lobbying et de vastes campagnes de publicité, les produits laitiers ne sont ni nécessaires, ni naturels et que notre attachement au lait comme un produit normal et nice est le produit d'une action volontariste à la fois des États et des industriels.

Hi, you've called Age & Mitch. And now they're calling you back.Here we are again ladies with another instalment of our favourite transfer of power known as Your Message, Our Machine. The listener's opportunity to tell the boys what they should be talking about.This week, with Melbourne reopening, our hosts discuss the return to normalcy and the important first disastrous hookup story to come out of our newfound freedom. Moving on from there, the hot topics of the day include sex languages, songs the boys have on repeat, brushes with fame and whether we should really be telling other people our dreams. Or if anyone actually cares?In the advice section we're talking learning how to live after a string of long term relationships and how not to compare yourself to the happy elderly couple on the train. A topic in which Age & Mitch are particularly well-versed.Once you've finished the ep, get in early and line up your questions, scenarios or segment requests now for the next time MOTM throws to the people.

Hi, you've called Age... and Mitch! And now they're calling you back.This week's episode of Message on the Machine is a gorgeous new episode of Your Message, Our Machine. Everyone's favourite rambunctious, audience-led variety show where you tell us what YOU want discussed.Starting off with our weeks and it's been one of highs and lows. We're talking the CFMEU, tradies revolting in the streets and the stress of securing Dua Lipa tickets in the middle of a work day. Stay tuned for a recount of how both our hosts survived the great Melbourne earthquake of 2021 (as if we didn't have enough to worry about). Other hot topics of the day include, in no particular order, how long can a banana brown before it's too far gone, who is funnier, and what names do the boys think are really sexy? In advice, it's all about fucking exes of exes and career changes. If you'd like to know more about either of those things, you won't find it in this short blurb. You'll have to give the bloody thing a listen instead.Once you've finished the ep, get in early and line up your questions, scenarios or segment requests now for the next time MOTM throws to the people.

Hi, you've called Age... and Mitch! And now they're calling you back.That's right, Age & Mitch are back with another episode of Your Message, Our Machine where (almost) complete creative control is relinquished to the listeners for a bombastic episode of whatever you guys, gals and people want to talk about.This week, Age's blushing ear has returned without any new leads or diagnosis. Conversation turns to the boys' love languages, regrets from their respective childhoods and something that they will absolutely NOT stand for any longer. A listener challenge also came through to tell each other a joke and spoiler alert, they both absolutely tanked. Potentially the first time on earth that our co-hosts have not been able to laugh at each other. Comedy's hard.After covering the very important topic of Which Character from the OC would you bone, the ep turns to a listener-suggested segment (and our new favourite pass-time), reading online brothel reviews. We won't give much away except to say that Lindsay, whoever you are, keep up the good work darl.Once you've finished the ep, get in early and line up your questions, scenarios or segment requests now for the next time MOTM throws to the people.

Hi, you've called Age... and Mitch! And now they're calling you back.This week's episode sees the boys throwing to the people in a little episode we like to call Your Message, Our Machine. As always, you never quite know what's coming on that one special day a month when Age and Mitch completely relinquish creative control. To instead talk about whatever the hell is on the mind of you, the listener.This week, expect some totally wild stories about cars being towed and killer seagulls. You saucy little minxes wanted to know all about recent sexual encounters and whether they've ever gone back to bonk an ex. Sickos. On a more wholesome note, discussion turns to relationships with siblings, whether we plan to have kids, and then somehow devolves into a listener tale about dog semen. It's a wild ride but just go with it.Once you've finished the ep, get in early and line up your questions, scenarios and advice seeking now for the next time MOTM throws to the people.

Good morning, afternoon or evening ladies and gents.Excellent news! Today the boys are back on deck with the season's first instalment of Your Message, Our Machine. Our favourite kind of episode because Age & Mitch get to throw to YOU to tell them exactly what to talk about.Expect some really deep chats on things like advice for our younger selves, rainbow washing during pride month and what position the boys would choose if they had to have sex with each other. Inspired by a listener question, this episode also features a very saucy segment of Fuck, Marry, Kill with some potentially unexpected suitors (or victims). Of course, no YMOM would be complete without a bit of questionable advice so settle in because once again, all the advice requests that came in were about relationships and the answers were provided by two people who are... not in relationships.Once you've finished the ep, get in early and line up your questions, scenarios and advice seeking now for the next time MOTM throws to the people.

Sick of talking to just each other, the boys are back, back, back again with a third instalment of Your Message, Our Machine.This week the boys have thrown to you, the listeners, to do their job for them and decide exactly what you'd like to see in an ep. Expect plenty of chat around the recent Golden Gaytime controversy, staying friends with your exes and gay men donating blood. Stay to find out what Age & Mitch would do if they woke up naked on the Sydney Harbour Bridge and how they'd handle being in competition for the same man.As usual, the episode ends with some very questionable advice and this week you've thrown some JUICY stuff our way.

Liz Marshall and Face2Face host David Peck talk about Meat the Future, big, urgent questions, the good food institute, our moral compass, solution focused stories and clean meat.TrailerMore info here about Meat The Future here.Stream it now on CBC Gem.Synopsis:With animal agriculture occupying roughly 45% of the world’s ice-free surface area, producing more greenhouse gases than cars, the prospect of meat consumption doubling by 2050 is a wake-up call for solutions. The future may lie with “clean meat,” also referred to as “cell-based,” and “cultivated” meat – a food science that grows real meat from animal cells, without slaughtering animals. Meat the Future chronicles the birth of a revolutionary industry, and the mission to make it delicious, affordable and sustainable. Documented exclusively from 2016-2019, by award-winning filmmaker Liz Marshall (The Ghosts in Our Machine), the film follows pioneering food scientists who are risking everything to bring their product to supermarkets and restaurants in the near future. This timely character-driven documentary focuses largely on former Mayo Clinic Cardiologist Dr. Uma Valeti, co-founder and CEO of American start-up company Memphis Meats. In 2016, Valeti and his team unveiled an $18K/lb meatball. At the forefront of the industry, Memphis Meats has attracted tens of millions of dollars in investment from billionaire influencers and corporate food giants. Their confidence is buoyed by the plummeting price of the product-in-progress.There are salivating moments as well, as top-ranked chefs perform their magic on the meat-of-the-future. Says director Marshall “The future of cell-based meat is unknown, but its revolutionary promise and journey into the world is a powerful story that I believe will stand the test of time.”About Liz:Liz Marshall is an award-winning Canadian filmmaker. Since the 1990s she has written, produced, directed, and filmed diverse international and socially conscious documentaries. Her work has been released theatrically, been broadcast globally, made available digitally, and has screened for hundreds of grassroots communities around the globe.Marshall’s visionary feature-length films explore social justice and environmental themes driven by strong characters. The impact of Liz’s critically acclaimed documentary The Ghosts In Our Machine is reflected in an extensive global evaluation report funded by the Doc Society.Marshall’s current feature documentary Meat The Future, chronicles the birth of the “clean” “cultured” “cell-based” meat industry in America through the eyes of pioneer Dr. Uma Valeti.Previous titles include Midian Farm, Water On The Table, the HIV/AIDS trilogy for the Stephen Lewis Foundation, the War Child Canada/MuchMusic special Musicians in the Warzone, and the music documentary archive of folk-icon Ani DiFranco.Image Copyright and Credit: Liz Marshall and Meat The Future Inc.F2F Music and Image Copyright: David Peck and Face2Face.

Defender Radio: The Podcast for Wildlife Advocates and Animal Lovers
One year ago a small budget documentary was premiered at the HotDocs film festival in Toronto. The film followed the journey of a photographer – Jo-Anne McArthur – as she explored the exploitation of animals in modern society. In the year that passed, The Ghosts in Our Machine has become a staple in the work of advocates everywhere. With harrowing – yet not gruesome - scenes inside factory farms and fur farms, Ghosts is a powerful yet palatable look into a world many try to ignore. To celebrate this one year landmark and the release of The Ghosts on DVD and the iTunes Store, Jo-Anne McArthur joined Defender Radio for a candid conversation.
Legendary actor and health reformer Marilu Henner joins us today, along with Liz Marshall, director of the stunning animal rights film The Ghosts in Our Machine.
Derek & Lo Vee interview animal rights photographer Jo-Anne McArthur, who is known for her project We Animals in which she documents, through photography, animals in the human environment who are being used for food, clothing, research, experimentation, work, entertainment, slavery and companionship. Her photos give us a view into their world that is often shocking not because she attempts to show horrific scenes of violence, but rather because she shows the day to day existense of the beings we share the world with. The photos are artistic and taken from perspectives that betray our typical human-centric and speciest gaze.The We Animals project has opened up new opportunities for Jo-Anne, and she is currently the subject of a documentary film by Liz Marshall called The Ghosts in Our Machine. "The film follows Jo-Anne over the course of a year as she photographs several animal stories in parts of Canada, the U.S. and in Europe. Each story is a window into global animal industries: Food, Fashion, Entertainment and Research."
