Moby and Lindsey discuss upcoming events and the importance of joining these events to promote a plant-based lifestyle.
Moby and Lindsey share their personal journeys of going vegan and highlight the ethical and environmental reasons behind plant-based living.
The podcast explores the urgency of addressing climate change and the role of animal agriculture as a major contributor to greenhouse gas emissions. They discuss the need for individuals, especially wealthy individuals, to use their power and wealth to make a positive impact.
Moby and Lindsey delve into the topics of anxiety, panic attacks, and coping mechanisms. They highlight the power of music as a healing modality and discuss the benefits of straight-edge living in promoting clean and healthy lifestyles.
The podcast discusses the allure of drugs and alcohol in our culture. The speaker suggests that humans are often drawn to substances that provide an escape from our everyday lives. These substances temporarily take us out of our mundane existence and offer relief from discomfort or difficult feelings. The speaker also highlights the lack of emphasis on developing healthy coping mechanisms, which leads many people to turn to drugs and alcohol as quick solutions to manage discomfort or unease.
The podcast touches on Moby's licensing success, particularly the use of his song 'Extreme Ways' in the Jason Bourne film series. This unexpected licensing opportunity gave Moby's music wider exposure and became synonymous with the Bourne movies. Additionally, the podcast briefly mentions Moby's collaboration with artists like Shania O'Connor and David Bowie. Moby recalls his experience working with Shania on a song and expresses concern for her struggles before her passing. He also fondly remembers his friendship with David Bowie, acknowledging Bowie's impact on him as a musician and the privilege of spending time with such a remarkable artist.
In the ever-changing world of “celebrity culture," it's hard to find someone so resolute about their activism as Moby. He's had undeniable staying power on the music scene, but it’s his vegan activism that has left the most lasting impression.
Moby went vegan in 1987 and remains an ardent supporter of animal rights, climate change advocacy, and humanitarian aid. He is also the author of several books, including memoirs and vegan cookbooks.
Moby, without question, is one of the most prolific and thoughtful thinkers on the planet and he and his co-host Lindsay Hicks recently started The Moby Pod to provide even more insight into their advocacy work.
Lindsay Hicks, like her pal Moby, is also an environmentalist and sustainability expert. On the Moby Pod, they discuss a wide range of topics with humor and humility, providing their unique perspectives on the entertainment industry, animal activism, and beyond. In fact, recent episodes have featured everything from guest, Dan Buettner, to writing songs…and even a little paranormal chat!
