Free bullfighting tickets for under-8s, the pork industry saying it doesn't want any more transparency and a lot of people in France getting upset about a small business making croissants without animal products. No wonder the passions were running high in this week's news show!

As ever, we're covering ten or so stories from the week's vegan & animal rights news, giving the facts, our opinions & the occasional bit of silliness.

* CONTENT ADVISORY * 

We think we've removed all the 'swears' from the final edit of this episode, but if strong language isn't your thing & would prevent you enjoying the show, this nontheless might not be the episode for you.
