10/09/23 • 90 min

Weekly vegan news show, with headlines, commentary & discussion...

What's stopping men going vegan? Or are there certain things that make women far more likely to adopt a vegan lifestyle? We discuss this, plus Spain's new animal protection laws, a study linking genetics with compassionate eating, what happens when a vegan goes onto a BBC fishing show, and much more...

Weekly vegan news show, with headlines, commentary & discussion...
