Vegan Radio Episode 50!

Vegan Radio Episode 50!

Vegan Radio is about to air its 50TH EPISODE, and to celebrate we are going to pre-record the show LIVE in front of a "studio" audience... and YOU ARE INVITED! That's right, come be a guest on the show that people will be talking about for years to come! Come be a part of VEGAN HISTORY! Everyone who attends will be eligible to be a guest on the show. If you are too shy then you can just sit in the back and heckle us...

There will also be a GOURMET VEGAN DINNER prepared by vegan chef Heather Bargeron and live food chef Eden Love. Desert will feature vegan cheesecakes by Oh Sweet Mama's Vegan Bakery (whose owner is Vegan Radio co-host Megan Shackelford). This will be a sit down dinner served to you at your table while you enjoy the festivities and entertainment.

And speaking of entertainment... we are shakin' like tofu in a blender with delight to let you know that local vegan singer-songwriter Dennis Crommett will be performing some songs for us! Dennis is well known in the valley for his solo music as well as his work with the bands Spanish For Hitchhiking and the Winterpills.

And in case you are wondering, proceeds from the dinner will go to THE VEGAN BUS!

The show will also be available soon after that at www.veganradio.com. And finally, this will be the first show we will be uploading to the PACIFICA NETWORK to make it available to OVER 100 RADIO STATIONS ACROSS THE US!!
