April 25, 2018 Should Vegans Target Individual Restaurants – Episode 129
What’s up, beardos?! This week, by popular demand, we are discussing an incident involving a protest-gone-wrong. Local activists in Toronto decided to target a restaurant that prides itself on providing local and “humane” meat. When the restaurant’s co-owner decided to stage a counter-protest that involved carving up a deer’s leg and eating it in front of the protesters, he earned the restaurant a flood of international praise and their reservations skyrocketed. We dissect what went wrong and attempt to find some lessons learned in the aftermath. Ultimately the discussion keeps leading us to weigh the pros and cons of targeting individual restaurants.
Plus we break down the news, including the latest vegan celebrity worship and Post Mates banning the delivery of foie gras.

April 18, 2018 Should Vegan Activists Get Paid? – Episode 128
This week the bearded duo bring you a discussion regarding something that has been on their minds for quite a while. Should vegan activists get paid? They aren’t talking about people working for non-profits, but more specifically activists who start Patreons to fund their activism with no specific tangible goals other than “I will do more activism”. Do we need activists dedicated 24/7? It is classist to demand activists work for free? Does crowd-funded activism run the risk of only rewarding certain types of activism at the detriment to others? They roll up our sleeves and dive deep into this one!
Plus they go over the news, including the Impossible Burger rolling out to White Castle and the latest in the By Chloe legal proceedings. Additionally, they follow up on last week’s discussion about veganizing prison farms.
