VP#47: Manifesting Vegan! Filmmaker, Podcaster, & Comedian Graham Elwood on Living Healthy on the Road, Why Vegans Get So Much S***, & His New Comedy Special "Manifest It"

Some people think of us vegans as uptight, didactic, and humorless - and they can think again! Comic, filmmaker, podcaster, and longtime vegan Graham Elwood honed his comedic skills in comedy clubs and colleges to become a sarcastic hipster who can make light of anything and anyone including himself. In his new comedy special "Manifest It", Graham calls out Boomers for hating on Millennials and Gen Z, the war in Russia and Ukraine, open markets in China, and the NFL for not making more commercials targeted towards vegan hippies. Graham is part of a comedy group called Fancy Ketchup, whose show can be seen on a regular basis at The Comedy Store in Hollywood. He's made frequent appearances at the Improv in Las Vegas and numerous comedy clubs across the country including The Improv - LA and The Laugh Factory - LA. Early on the podcast train, Graham and Chris Mancini made a documentary called Ear Buds: The Podcasting Documentary. A lifelong athlete, Graham's sports interests include martial arts and weapons, football, lacrosse, and baseball. He currently hosts "The Political Vigilante" podcast and makes regular appearances on "The Jimmy Dore Show" and "Crosstalk With Peter Lavelle."
