Think you know Billy Corgan? Think again. He and his partner, designer and founder of Maison Atia, Chloe Mendel, talk faux fur, animal activism and the Smashing Pumpkins reunion on Ep 22 of Awesome Vegans with Elysabeth Alfano. Unfathomably, between the two of them, they juggle living in NYC, Chicago and LA, a haute-couture fashion house, a rock band, two dogs, two cats and two babies! And yet, as you will hear, they are incredibly normal and laid back, with a very funny dynamic between the two of them. In fact, this interview is an EXCLUSIVE. It is their first interview together ever.&nbsp; Visit Maison Atia's website&nbsp;to view collections and for information on a December 16 Faux Fur event with Santa and your pet at the Virgin Hotels Chicago benefitting PAWS Chicago.

How Not To Die: Dr. Greger Kicks Off 2019

On this show, I am honored to interview so many wonderful people who are making a difference in this world for people, for the planet and for animals.&nbsp; But even among this group of truly exceptional people, Dr. Neal Barnard is special. &nbsp;Founder of Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine and the Barnard Medical Center, he is also the author of 20 books, such as The Vegan Starter Kit: Everything You Need to Know about Plantbased Eating. &nbsp; Dr. Barnard has fostered an instrumental and monumental change in the use of animals in testing and experimentation in both governmental and non-governmental institutions. As if this isn’t enough, he has also worked tirelessly to make sure that nutrition is considered as an important factor in preventive medicine. &nbsp; Dr. Barnard and I &nbsp;talk about his recent big win for the end of animal testing on cosmetics in the state of CA, and his other initiatives to make the world better for animals and people, along with his view on life and music.&nbsp; No doubt, this man is a walking gem. Plus, he gives great tips to help you stick to your resolutions and experience a great Veganuary! &nbsp; For more information, visit http://ElysabethAlfano.com&nbsp;
