Summary

WOW. So this episode took quite the turn, we had a listener email into the show about a Veganuary email we sent out, we thought we'd rattle on for 20-30 mins on the mic, but things quickly escalated and we only got Part 1 recorded in 60 minutes!

We ended up debating the science of online arguments and peoples mindset, why people choose to twist the truth to support an agenda from an antibiotics in milk FB post I wrote, the nutritional differences of vegan vs 'normal' milk, why the farming network in the UK is a lot better than we give it credit for, perspective when it comes to human nature, and more.

Want an objective account of the science of dairy? Here's a nutrition report all about dairy, BUT, be warned, it's not a 5 minute read, this is data heavy and covers a lot of ground. But you have to when looking at the nuances of our food:

I'm actually going to expand on episode 500 on episode 502 because I think there was a little bit of a narrative

0:17.2

that I kind of missed out and I just didn't want to kind of give this impression that life is about more and more, it isn't.

0:25.0

But anyway, today we're going to be talking about the vegan diet, chemicals in our food

0:31.1

and how potentially food manufacturers fiddle about with our food and maybe a few musings in

0:38.9

between and to help me with this show the big man is here Tom Ben how you doing I'm wicked mate I'm having a

great day the sun shining I'm rattling through my jobs I'm feeling productive

I'm gonna start my or I'm going to have my first ever boxing session for a long time today

dabble at boxing today so I'm either gonna come back singing and dancing or with my

tail between my legs because I've had my ears duffed in.

1:14.0

It is probably both. Like in my very limited experience with any striking sports, it's just remarkably
