As well as blocking us from accessing their website, US mega-chain Denny's have this week "called out" animal rights' advocates...for the fact that they want animal agriculture to come to an end. Whilst this might seem obvious to most listeners, is this in fact a new approach for animal ag apologists to take, and does it risk invalidating our argument as 'too extreme'?

Julie & Ant discuss this and several other stories from the week's vegan & animal rights-related news.
