Show 18 features Mat Thomas from In Defense of Animals (IDA) who talks about the latest technological innovation from NASA - Vat-Grown Meat. This space age invention could be the harbinger of a new era in animal compassion, where animals no longer need to be killed and meat eaters no longer need to be killers. But will it happen, and what would the implications be?

This time on the Naked News: First is the much-anticipated decisions of the International Whaling Commission at their meeting this week in St. Kitts. Second is new legislation in NYC to ban the use of wild animals in circuses. Third is Bill Frist the kitten killing senate majority leader who we hope will never be our president. We will also be featuring a poem from Richard King and music from the latest issue of Herbivore Magazine.
