Hi Bearded Andy and Bearded Paul! I really enjoyed this episode and I greatly appreciate your discussion about race in relation to the whole situation with Harambe. I’m not sure if you guys discussed the accident that happened shortly after this in Florida with the child who was sadly killed by an alligator. Both of these situations were similar in many respects, but the parents were treated significantly better in the case of the alligator and also happened to be white. I also thought it was interesting that I didn’t hear any public outcry from the vegan community about the fact that 6 alligators were killed based on the fact that they may have been the one that attacked the child. Just a random observation that came to mind during this episode.
Thanks for creating this podcast, you guys are awesome! And please do make some t-shirts!
