🎉 It’s ‪Arian Moayed week on the podcast! 👉🏽 Ben Cohen is a philanthropist, an antiwar activist, the co-founder of Ben & Jerry's ice cream, and the founder of Up In Arms — a movement that is taking on war profiteers and weapons manufacturers and is demanding that the Pentagon slash out outrageous defense budget by...a lot. 👉🏽 In this conversation, Arian and I talk about his immigrant story, moving to the US at a young age from Iran, how he became an artist, the importance of making art in the midst of all the fucked up things around us, and so much more. ❤️ If you love this show and want to support us, ⁠⁠please consider joining our Patreon⁠⁠. 🔔 And while you're at it, hit that subscribe button!
