Few people walk the walk like today's guest and do it with such authenticity, regardless of who likes it or not. Gavin Polone is a film and TV producer and director, a magazine writer, and a talent manager, but above of all he is a voice for animals. In this episode, he opens up about Chiquita, the neighborhood cat who changed him when he was just a boy being bullied, and all the animals who have shaped his life since. We discuss the patience cats demand to earn their trust, if it's harder to love humans or believe they suck, and a deep desire to befriend a raven. His dedication is constant, as is his commitment to veganism, and his outlook is truly inspiring. One thing is for certain: there is nobody like Gavin Polone. And the animal world is better for it.
