Jamie's Corner

What the hell is up? In this episode of Jamie’s Corner, I sit down with longtime animal rights advocate and PETA veteran Ashley Byrne to unpack a difficult but necessary conversation: how infighting, online drama, and activist-on-activist attacks are weakening the animal rights movement—and why powerful industries benefit from it.From trolls and bots to clout-chasing creators and even historical examples of infiltration, this episode explores how division is manufactured, why it spreads so easily online, and how activists can protect their energy, their mental health, and the animals by staying focused on the bigger picture.This is a conversation about unity without uniformity, disagreement without destruction, and how to handle conflict in a way that actually creates change.If you care about animals, activism, or social movements—this episode is essential listening. Key topics:• Why activist infighting is so damaging• Industry smear campaigns and division tactics• “Vegan-on-vegan” harassment and misinformation• How to respond to trolls without fueling them• Self-care and emotional regulation for activists• Why the animals don’t care about our politics🎧 Jamie's Corner is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and YouTube! 👉 Follow us:itsjamiescorner.competa.org📚 Instagram:instagram.com/itsjamiescornerinstagram.com/ashlovesmongo🙏 Support the show:https://www.patreon.com/c/itsjamiescornerSpotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/4EfzXcBI227SSYcTS55kqo?si=53863a4ac58d4c88Apple - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jamies-corner/id1616904718🕙 CHAPTER MARKERS:00;00;00;00 — Why Division Weakens Movements00;02;05;12 — Unity for the Animals (Episode Purpose)00;03;41;25 — When Attacks Come From Inside the Movement00;06;08;08 — There’s No “Right” Way to Be an Activist00;09;27;23 — Industry Smear Campaigns & Manufactured Conflict00;14;26;03 — How the Outside World Sees Vegan Infighting00;20;19;00 — Infiltration, Bots, and Paid Division00;24;11;07 — Healthy Disagreement vs Destructive Drama00;37;31;25 — Self-Care, Equilibrium & Activist Longevity00;58;47;03 — Final Reminder: It’s About the Animals

What the hell is up? This week, author, researcher and abductee Alan Steinfeld joins me to talk all things extra terrestrials. Who are they? Why are they here? And should we be afraid? Alan describes how his love of science fiction as a child turned into reality when he was abducted by aliens in Arizona. Decades of research, conversations with others who’ve had similar experiences, cattle mutilations, crop circles, uncovering hidden government files, and UFO sightings have led him to one undeniable conclusion: The Aliens are here. But why? His book, "Making Contact" explores humanity's profound connection with extraterrestrial life, the implications of their presence, and how we can prepare for a future shaped by these extraordinary encounters. In this episode, I challenge Alan to reflect on the parallels between the experiments aliens conduct on humans and the ones we perform on non-human animals. If we wouldn’t want it done to us, should we be doing it to them?

What the hell is up? This week, I’m thrilled to be joined by filmmaker Mark Devries for an insightful conversation about his documentary, Humans and Other Animals. Mark shares the behind-the-scenes story of creating the film and dives into what he discovered about the deep, often overlooked connections between humans and non-human animals. We explore the ethical, emotional, and environmental dimensions of these relationships and why they matter now more than ever.

What the hell is up? In this weeks episode, I’m joined by Angie Winters for an insightful conversation about dog parenting. Whether you’re dealing with challenging behaviors or welcoming a new puppy into your home, Angie shares her top tips for building strong communication with your furry friend. We also dive into Angie’s new book, "Don't Train Your Dog: A Pet Parenting Guide to Teaching Good Behavior, Calming Fear, and Raising Happy Dogs." Her groundbreaking approach redefines dog parenting—not as "training" a pet, but as guiding and understanding a beloved family member. Instead of blaming dogs for unwanted behaviors, Angie encourages us to listen, learn, and speak their language to create happier, more harmonious relationships.
