By Amanda Matte, VRG Intern

Every Monday night for 2 hours, I have the pleasure of addressing the airwaves with my friend Sheila on our radio show, “Canny Crack.” The show can be accessed both on air and online through the station for which we work, WLOY, which is Loyola University’s very own radio station. The show celebrates an eclectic assortment of music that spans the genre spectrum, with a heavy focus on all things English.

On April 2nd, Sheila and I decided to use our DJ roles that allow us to reach many in part to spread the word about VRG and vegetarianism in general. She is a fellow vegetarian, so we opened up the phone lines and allowed people to call in with questions about the lifestyle. We also discussed some of our favorite recipes, and my favorite vegetarian restaurant located in England called the Sky Apple Cafe!

Amanda has been one of our many great interns! For more information about local and long-distance internships with VRG, please see: http://www.vrg.org/student/. For information about our college scholarship, see: http://www.vrg.org/student/scholar.htm.
