Thanks for coming on the show Niilo!

    Ooh, this was great!  It sounds like there's a lot of really awesome work going on in the UVA.  Niilo's so well-spoken, though, that I'm not surprised.  What a great choice for a guest on the show!

    And Liz, I know it's hard work to build something up from scratch, so don't beat yourself up!  The AAbVA will be awesome with you at the helm!

    Great one! I loved the way Niilo get "converted" to veganism. It seems to have happened overnight with a quiet discussion with his friend. As if to become vegan was obvious, easy, quietly…
    Congratulations to you Elizabeth to have such a great guest, you are a very good interviewer in fact you ask exactly the questions we want to ask. Thank you!

    I agree, this was great to listen to. Thank you both for this inspiring interview.

    I don’t want to sound too demanding, but you should make another show together! ;-)

    I always find it so very helpful when you talk about your and William’s conversations with people, their and your reactions, and your afterthoughts. I’m sure Niilo has some wisdom to share as well when it comes to handling tricky situations, asking appropriate questions and providing convincing answers …

    Thanks Martin!
    I would love to have Niilo on again. And another episode about the stall is long overdue, you are right about that!

    :)
