Baby Hercules Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 Thanks for posting, Robert! So good to see the word getting out in positive ways. The interviewer's versus the interviewee's speaking styles cracked me up, though. She sounds like she's shouting across a subway car and he sounds like he just woke up. If he enunciates more and projects, I think he'd reach more people, pun intended, and she just needs to calm the hell down or people are gonna think she's a New York City plumber in drag.

BigRed Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 Glad to see non-meat diet getting a positive shout-out in the news! But holy hell, that CNN interviewer was so obnoxious! Almost seemed like a joke! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vivalasvegans Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 It seemed like an infomercial to me, the way she kept holding up the product and saying the name... weirdness! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert Posted June 24, 2012 Author Share Posted June 24, 2012 Jane Velez-Mitchell is known for her loudness on her show. She often has one of those mallets a judge uses, I don't recall what they're called at the moment, and is waving it around She's pretty high energy. I met her in New Orleans a few years ago. I think it was probably a PR thing. It did seem pretty commercial, holding up the packet and drinking Vega. Most things on TV seem staged these days. Brendan does look like a teenager at nearly age 40, which is pretty interesting. I saw him a few weeks back. He's constantly on the road, talking about his career as a vegan athlete to all sorts of groups from Google to staff members at stores and audiences at festivals.

FormicaLinoleum Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 Jane Velez-Mitchell is a vegan herself, right? (That link takes me to a video about the Queen visiting Northern Ireland so I haven't watched the clip with BB.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert Posted June 27, 2012 Author Share Posted June 27, 2012 Yeah, she's a long-time vegan. I had dinner with her a few years ago in New Orleans and I had no idea who she was. I asked if she was part of the local group that put on the veg festival Then I learned she had her own show on TV when someone told me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
