As The Bearded Vegans continue their summer break film review series, they bring it back to one of, arguably, the most successful pro-animal films of all time: Blackfish. This is Andy’s second viewing since it’s 2013 release and Paul’s very first time. They’ll see if it still holds up, discuss the impact it made and try to determine what made it so gosh dang successful?

This week The Bearded Vegans begin their summer break film review series with an in depth review of Kangaroo: A Love-Hate Story. This surprisingly graphic film explores Australia’s complicated relationship with their national icon.

This week The Bearded Vegans are pleased to bring you their live episode recorded in front of a studio audience at the Atlantic City Vegan Food Festival. They kick things off with two listener submitted emails, one regarding protocol when receiving non-vegan gifts and the other questioning the ethics of providing organs for someone who will continue to oppress animals. Paul and Andy then turn it over to the audience for an interactive second half.

This week Paul and Andy respond to an article sent in by dozens of listeners regarding a non-vegan restaurant that secretly served vegan meat to unsuspecting patrons, only to reveal to the true source of the ingredients after the fact. They’ll talk about what they think about this strategy. Is this a good way to turn people on to vegan meats? Is it unethical to deceive people in this way, even if it’s in the service of a just cause? How would we feel if the situation was reversed?

This week, The Bearded Vegans continue their discussion about the peril’s of ultra realistic vegan meats by asking if it is possible to create a perfect replica of animal’s flesh without ever harming animals. With the recent revelation that Beyond Meat used animal flesh in A/B tests during production of their burger, it is evident that this question will become more and more relevant to the progress of plant based meats and how vegans will navigate the ethics of consuming or promoting them.

With so much focus on the benefits of creating ultra-realistic vegan meats, The Bearded Vegans thought they would take some time to talk about the potential downsides. Starting with an update on the recent glut of labeling laws that threaten to ban vegan products from being labeled as “meat”, “milk”, and “butter” and ending with the case of a Burger King selling cow’s flesh disguised as the Impossible Whopper. Paul and Andy dig into all the nitty gritty in part one of this discussion.

This week’s mini-episode, the Bearded Vegans respond to the email of a listener wondering if they should provide a warning to wedding guests that the food will be vegan.

This episode features a rare in-person recording session and it goes off the rails real fast. Enjoy!

With the rapidly evolving conversation around this disruption, we’ve decided to release this episode to the public a full 3 days early. This week we are going to do our best to break down a recent action that has become a huge point of contention, both within the vegan world as well as the wider political sphere. During a talk on the gender pay gap, California Senator Kamala Harris was interrupted by a white male presenting activist in the name of animal liberation. We’ll discuss our feelings on these types of disruptions in general as well as what particular optics and dynamics have caused this one to become such a touch point.

This week Paul and Andy respond to a listener submitted dilemma. Is it okay to opt out of volunteering at a non-vegan soup kitchen, simply out of personal discomfort? They’ll explore the pros and cons of opting out and whether anyone should feel obligated to engage in activism that doesn’t 100% align with their ethics.
