We Will Always Love Dolly – Podcast Ep 110

by

In the latest episode of the Tell Me Where I’m Going (Wrong) podcast, Josh and I discuss the life, times, and death of universal megastar Dolly Parton.

It is a poignant discussion where we not only talk about our sadness at her passing, but also her incredible contributions to pop culture and her charitable work.

We also discuss the death of legendary actor Tim Curry who was most famous for his starring role in Rocky Horror Picture Show.

It’s not all doom and gloom, I promise! We still manage a few laughs.

London Vegan Restaurant at Risk of Eviction

by

London is a brutal place for any business and vegan restaurants have it especially tough.

Business rates rising constantly, VAT horrors, wages, insurance, and soaring ingredient costs all make life in the UK capital close to impossible for independent vegan food businesses.

But add the threat of redevelopment and eviction to the mix and that creates a whole new level of hardship. Just ask Charles at Fed By Plants.
