Whoa! This week marks 104 episodes of my radio program Easy Vegan!
I launched my radio program at a local community radio station in August of 2015. At year two I struck out on my own and have been independently producing and hosting the show since. I absolutely love curating a guest lineup that brings a wide variety of vegan voices to the airwaves (in Colorado Springs, CO and Janesville, WI) and podcast players (iTunes, Stitcher and Soundcloud) to help vegans stay vegan and to encourage vegetarians and the veg-curious to consider veganism.
I prioritize the radio show just as I prioritize all of the work I do in my vegan business. The difference, of course, is that my other activities – coaching, consulting, culinary instruction – actually help me pay my bills.
The radio show has been a labor of love.
This week I launched a page on Patreon to help me continue to produce and host the show and to grow the show. Monthly patrons are eligible for some awesome perks:
- Donate $5 a month and receive show notes, in your email box, each week!
- Donate $10 a month and receive a PDF of my simple approach to eating vegan in the real world + three bulk recipes and five meal ideas to get you through the week!
- Donate $25 a month and receive a THREE-month Real World Vegan Meal Plan (80+ recipes! 175 pages!) delivered to you in PDF form via email.
- Donate $100 a month and you now have a vegan cooking coach on a monthly basis for as long as you’re a patron. We’ll get on the phone for 30 minutes once a month and I’ll answer your vegan cooking questions!
- And – perfect for businesses and nonprofits – donate $200 a month and you’re entitled to sponsor one episode a month! Not only will your 30-second top of the show spot and 15-second post-show spot run in Colorado Springs and Janesville, WI, it will live on forever on the show archive available on iTunes, Soundcloud, Stitcher, and on this website.
Product or service must be 100% vegan and cruelty-free. - And, of course, a donation of any size, will help me continue to put vegan messages out into the world.
Your support will help create an archive of 28:30-minute shows that are quick to listen to, informative, and address all of the pillars of veganism: animal rights and welfare, the environment, and health. These shows get picked up by local public and nonprofit radio stations through PRX: I pay an annual fee to the Public Radio Exchange to make sure that any community radio station can acquire FREE vegan radio content for their stations and programs.
Here are two more reasons to consider becoming a patron:
- When I reach patron donations of $500 a month, I’ll interview one patron each month on Easy Vegan!
- When I reach $1,000 a month, I’ll randomly select one patron a month for a free, one-hour online cooking class!
