Making the World More Vegan with Bobby Sud

What does it take to create a more compassionate world when only about 1% of the global population is vegan? In this thought-provoking episode of Plant Based Coaches, Richard Hubbard and Dr. Suzanne Foxx welcome Bobby Sud—filmmaker, photographer, and longtime animal rights activist—for an inspiring conversation about the future of the vegan movement. Bobby has dedicated years to documenting the realities of animal agriculture as an organizer and photographer with LA Animal Save. His powerful images have been featured by major publications including People Magazine, the Los Angeles Times, and The Hollywood Reporter. As a filmmaker, he has worked on projects such as the vegan travel series The Road Less Eaten, collaborated with Earthlings and Unity director Shaun Monson, and co-directed the Million Dollar Vegan campaign featuring athletes, physicians, and individuals whose lives have been transformed by a whole-food, plant-based lifestyle. During this conversation, Bobby shares why expanding veganism requires more than passion—it requires empathy. He explains why vegans should strive to engage everyone, regardless of political affiliation, emphasizing that compassion shouldn't have ideological boundaries. Rather than excluding people based on their beliefs, Bobby encourages meeting them where they are and having respectful conversations that can inspire lasting change. Whether you're a longtime vegan, simply plant-curious, or interested in more effective advocacy, this episode offers practical insights on how kindness, understanding, and open dialogue can help move the world toward a more compassionate future.
