VP#31: Globe-hopping plant-based podcast pro Steven Shalowitz, host of The One Way Ticket Show!

An adventurer in both body and spirit, Steven Shalowitz has been to over 70 countries - and counting! Steven was considering giving up eating meat while living in Singapore, but an interview with now-deceased celebrity chef Anthony Bourdain convinced him that if he did, he'd be missing out on key cultural experiences. (Heard that one before, anyone?) Nevertheless, over the years, Steven found himself eating less and less meat, and, in 2020, a conversation with Main Street Vegan author Victoria Moran finally prompted him to "rethink his breakfast" and go fully vegan. Since then, there's been no looking back! These days, Steven is the full-time host and producer of The One Way Ticket Show podcast, now in its 11th season. The One Way Ticket Show features high-profile guests who discuss where they would go if given a one-way ticket to anywhere, no coming back. In addition, Steven produces and hosts the IsraelCast podcast for Jewish National Fund USA, and he produces the What’s Burning podcast from the Galilee Culinary Institute. He is also an active volunteer, avid reader and gym rat, museum- and theatre-goer, and since August 2021, has been working to help resettle Afghan refugees.
