Listen "Zoos and Aquariums, Part One"
Episode Synopsis
In part one of a two-part episode, The Tofu Trio grapples with the ethics of keeping animals in captivity. Joey admits his personal contradiction of never setting foot in an aquarium, but still visiting zoos, as long as he believes that they meet his delusional standards for conservation and welfare. Jon and Vanessa argue that zoos are animal prisons for profit, masquerading as centers for education and habitat preservation. For the most part, the three of them do stay on topic, but the same can't be said about part two of the episode, which releases next Tuesday.Vegans Talking Shit is hosted by Joey Di Girolamo, Jon Missirlian, and Vanessa Silva.
