Howard Lyman, 4th generation rancher/cowboy/meat-eater turned vegan activist, the author of MAD COWBOY: Plain Truth from the Cattle Rancher Who Won't Eat Meat was raised on a farm and ranch producing dairy and meat commodities. In 1996, Lyman revealed, to a national television audience, how the cattle industry potentially exposed Americans to Mad Cow Disease by feeding cows the remains of live animals - including other cows, turning cows into cannibals. As a result of his remarks, Lyman was named a co-defendant with Oprah Winfrey in the infamous Veggie Libel case brought by Texas ranchers in Amarillo. Howard will be on the first half of the show.
