You asked for another vegan wizarding world episode...we provideth another vegan wizarding world episode! In our third-part episode of the discussion of animal rights in the magical world (for Part 1 and 2 click here, then here), Evy, Tylor, Robbie and Momo converge once again to discuss our two favourite things; veganism and Harry Potter, and to explore the habits and customs of wizards and witches through the lens of animal rights. We talk about the ethical concerns a vegan might have in Transfiguration, the problematic role of owls in wizarding society, and later on subject ourselves to an immensely challenging Harry Potter trivia quiz. Also on this episode...

Robbie, Evy and Tylor admit to underestimating Hufflepuff vegans and Momo is here to share what kind of vegan activists the ‘puffs are!
Is Care of Magical Creatures an ethical subject of study?
When you transfigure an inanimate object into an animal, is it sentient?
Is Transfiguration the solution to creating lab grown meat in the wizarding world?
Are wizards managing muggles the same way they manage magical beasts?!
Horse-drawn carriages vs thestral-drawn carriages; are they equally cruel and could there be an ethical alternative?
Are owls the domesticated animals of the wizarding world?
Does the wizarding world’s abstention from technology make them more dependent on the exploitation of animals?
Is Newt Scamander a good example of an animal rights activist?
Would Newt be vegan?
Is the newtcase a sanctuary or a zoo?
We discuss parallels between the Circus Arcanus and non magical animals in entertainment.
Is demiguise fur the wizarding equivalent of silk?
Would invisibility cloaks be banned in a vegan wizarding world?
Tylor has a solution for creating vegan invisibility cloaks!
Tylor poses the highly controversial question: ‘Should pygmy puffs exist?’
Play along with our extremely difficult Harry Potter trivia quiz!

0:00.0	Hello and welcome to the chickpeeps podcast. For obvious reasons, most of us are spending more time
0:06.5	inside right now than ever before, and while there are definitely some benefits to this period of
0:10.5	isolation, I'm currently finalising my plans for the inevitable zombie apocalypse, there are also
0:15.6	some downsides. One of them is that none of us are getting as much sunlight as we're used to.
0:19.9	Now, sunlight's important,
0:25.5	because our bodies use it to make vitamin D, which is essential for healthy bones and a strong immune system. And getting it isn't easy. Even before this outbreak, one study showed that 41% of Americans
0:30.7	were vitamin D deficient. So, given that I'd rather be fighting zombies than becoming one,
0:35.6	I've been taking a vitamin D supplement from
0:37.8	Vivo Life. Unfortunately, a lot of vitamin D supplements are made of sheep's wool, but like all of their
0:44.1	products, Vivo Life supplement is certified vegan. It comes as a liquid and has a slight lemony flavour,
0:50.3	so I just stick a few drops in my smoothie every morning. Vivo Life is a certified carbon neutral vegan company
0:56.3	and they make all of their products in a renewable energy powered factory in the UK.
1:01.3	They also plant one tree for each order placed on their website.
1:04.7	How cool is that?
1:05.7	You can stay healthy, save animals and plant trees with each purchase.
1:10.3	We're really proud to be sponsored by Vivo Life and they they're the products that EV-Momo, Tyler and I all use.
1:15.3	If you'd like to try Vivo Life, go to their website and use the discount code,
1:18.9	chickpeeps 10, to save money on your first order, and you can help support our podcast at the same time.
1:23.8	Thanks very much and enjoy the show.
1:23.3	Do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do eat your veggies, not your friends.
1:35.5	It's not hard to be vegan.
1:38.0	The chickpeak.
