When I interviewed Shaun Monson at WorldFest in 2009 about his life-changing documentary Earthlings I had no idea it would become one of my most popular videos on YouTube. Even though that movie made a huge impact on my perspective, at the time I didn't realize how many others it had touched. Now I've found that anytime that film is brought up in verbal or social media conversation there is a very strong emotional reaction - it has made millions of people around the world consider how they treat animals.

I hope you enjoy my interview with Shaun. My favorite part is when he quotes Gretchen Wyler: “we must not refuse to see with our eyes what they must endure with their bodies.” Please consider that when you watch Earthlings, for the first time or another - many people say they can't watch it all the way through, but I believe we owe it to the animals to. 

How did this documentary and these interviews make you feel? Did they impact your life and/or those around you?
