140- Angry man rams vegans with trolley!

Blimey, that was a bit of week wasn't it?! In this episode, Julie, Dominic & Anthony examine a blustering week full of some of the most controversial and divisive stories we've seen since we started Enough of the Falafel: Angry shoppers yelling at Animal Rising demonstrators, dead piglets being dropped on doorsteps, elephants being denied legal personhood, and Julie getting suspicious that Dale Vince is making a bold claim that isn't his to make!  In total we look at nine stories from the vegan & animal rights space from the last week or so.

****************

Enough of the Falafel is a community of people who love keeping on top of the latest news in the world of veganism & animal rights. With the Vegan Week podcast, we aim to keep listeners (& ourselves) informed & up-to-date with the latest developments that affect vegans & non-human animals; giving insight, whilst staying balanced; remaining true to our vegan ethics, whilst constantly seeking to grow & develop.

Each week we look through news stories from the past 7 days in the world of veganism & animal rights.
