Ep. 198: Sgt. Vegan Bill Muir - Called to Serve Humankind, Animals, and Our Planet - a podcast by Rip Esselstyn
from 2023-05-25T05:00
Sgt. Vegan, Bill Muir, has always had a “think outside the box” attitude – from being a straight-edge punk rocker to going vegan in 1992, and then joining the military just after 9/11 where he served as a US Army Paratrooper.
And all of this - YES - as a hardcore vegan. Needless to say, it wasn’t easy, but he was (and is) so convicted and grounded in his values that he made it work.
Today, Sgt. Vegan chats with Rip about:
-
How he became a hardcore straight-edge vegan
-
Why he joined the military to give back
-
How he made it through basic training as a vegan
-
What it took to procure his own food and remain grounded in his values
-
Why he’ll never eat chili again and what he eats these days
Today, he is a Registered Nurse at a VA Hospital in LA, where he continues to stand up for those who need assistance. Whether it’s helping humankind, animals, or our planet, Sgt. Vegan is ready to serve.
