The time has come, dear beardos, to review the granddaddy of all vegan health documentaries. This week, in their final film review of the Winter Break Retro Film Review series, the boys watch Forks Over Knives, the 2011 health documentary that explores the health benefits of a plant-based diet, as well as documents the rise of two hunky plant-based physicians.
This week, the bearded brethren continue their exploration of past animal rights documentaries with a closer look at Peaceable Kingdom: The Journey Home. A film that represents a marked departure from previous topics, as it follows the journey of several former-farmers who decided to dedicate their lives to helping animals instead.
This week the bearded boys continue their Winter Break Retro Film Review series with an in depth review of Speciesism, a documentary that works to examine the titular subject by talking to animal rights philosophers and activists as well as a number of people from marginalized groups.
This week the bearded duo continue their Winter Break Retro Film Review series with an in depth review of If A Tree Falls: A Story Of The Earth Liberation Front. A documentary that pairs well with last week’s Bold Native review, it follows the journey of members of the Earth Liberation Front who were charged with “eco-terrorism”.
This week Paul and Andy continue their winter break film review series with the first of their retro film reviews: Bold Native. How does this 2010 film compare to some of the more recent vegan media? Tune in to find out!
This week Paul and Andy begin their winter break film review series with a dissection of Ferdinand, an animated film being hailed as an animal rights allegory. Is it all just hype or is this the next great vegan-maker?
This week The Bearded Vegans present a very special live episode recorded in front of an audience at the Compassionfest Holiday Bazaar in Hamden, CT. The duo discuss tasty food finds at the event, a local restaurant that advertises itself as vegan but still serves animal flesh, and then move on into a discussion of how to be a good advocate for animals during the holiday season, specifically how to navigate the tricky world of holiday parties.
This week, the bearded duo once again dig into the depths of the mailbag to answer listener questions, comments and concerns. Topics range from the frivolous (favorite vegan bands, pet peeves) to the serious (thoughts on no kill shelters and whether bringing a child into the world can be ethical or altruistic) and everything in between! Plus, Paul and Andy announce their plans for their annual winter break, which is taking a different shape this year.
This week, Paul and Andy discuss a particularly delicious dish found in NYC before diving into some follow up and and a break down of the week’s news including the revelation that Field Roast was acquired by Maple Leaf Foods, the largest meat producer in Canada. Is the latest in a long line of similar acquisitions a net positive for animals, or are they just over it? Plus they review Vegan 2017, the latest installment in the annual film series from Plant Based News.
This week, Paul and Andy wade into the waters of direct action by asking if liberating animals should be considered terrorism. With the Animal Liberation Front listed as one of the top domestic terror threats by the FBI, is such a label a proportionate response to the threat? Additionally they break down the week’s news and talk about vegan food adventures in CT and NYC.
