ALL AROUND There’s a lot of online vegan content right now, with shows, podcasts and events growing rapidly. Here’s a round-up of some of the best and freshest online vegan options to tune in to.
The Animal Rights Show https://www.facebook.com/TheAnimalRightsShow The AR Show is hosted weekly along with side debates and conversations featuring hosts Nella Giatrakou, Wendy McGovern, Tom Gale-Batten and Roger Yates with guest hosts panellists and contributors and a ‘live’ audience that can engage and ask questions. With the work of Tom Regan underpinning this approach to Animal Rights, multiple subjects are discussed in detail by the lively, uplifting and inspiring group albeit with somewhat dry humour at times. Really good shows, warmly recommended, free to access, with subtitles. Really good for discussions on the use of language in advocacy especially.
The Cranky Vegan https://www.facebook.com/thecrankyvegan Jake Conroy AKA The Cranky Vegan lives up to his name with a regular ‘3 Minute Thursdays’ session every Thursday. Although generally around 10 – 15 minutes, and yet to be 3 minutes, but nonetheless lively, informative and with a wry sense of humour coupled with a somewhat incisive and sometimes icy stare at some of the movement’s more ‘problematic’ individuals and organisations. Never one to shy away from issues, and rarely short of an ironic quip or two, Jake is much valued by many, whilst unsurprisingly disliked by a few. His monthly patreon goes direct to animal sanctuaries too – how cool is that? 8
