Here's a fascinating audio in which PeTA award-winner Dr. Temple Grandin talks about animal issues, such as what the consumer will tolerate knowing about how we use other animals, how "Ag" communicates, vegan-this and vegan-that, Pink Slime, animal "its," when bad becomes normal and when normal is presented as bad, how the European Union is over (...

Here's a fascinating audio in which PeTA award-winner Dr. Temple Grandin talks about animal issues, such as what the consumer will tolerate knowing about how we use other animals, how "Ag" communicates, vegan-this and vegan-that, Pink Slime, animal "its," when bad becomes normal and when normal is presented as bad, how the European Union is over regulated in terms of animal welfare, public opinion as mob rule, nuances, and consumers' attitudes to happy meat.

Bernie Wright - who featured on a recent On Human-Nonhuman Relations Podcast - was recently invited to speak on an Irish radio show about school tours being organised by the Irish Greyhound Board (IGB).

As you'll hear from the recording of Bernie's interview, Elizabeth Igoe of the IGB acknowledges that the tours are partly to encourage the trainers, breeders, and owners of the future.

I contacted the station offering a general sociological view of the issue. They invited me to take part in a programme some days later.


THIS is the result.

For an early daily dose of speciesist ideology, BBC Radio 4's Farming Today is a leader in animal-using propaganda.

You are invited to listen out for the exploitative language in this short programme about "rare breeds," not generally confined in intensive conditions - a few "it"s (of course, although not as many as might be expected), "the girls," "animal use," "throw" (give birth), "good meat," "semen taken off them," "earn their keep," "product," "business option," "happy pig," and the apparent favourite of every animal user: "commercial."


You might smile when you hear (near the end) the claim about farmer's "grip on life." Well, they prefer to talk about that, in relation to themselves, than the grip of death they have over the other animals.

In this podcast, I address the issue of whether animal rights advocates should involve themselves in animal welfare reform, anti-speciesists sentiments about a footballer and horses forced to race, and introuduce special guests Bernie Wright, from Alliance for Animal Rights in Dublin, Ireland, and Jordan Wyatt of the Invercargill Vegan Society in New Zealand, who explore with me the ins-and-outs of hunting in their respective countries in the wider context of animal rights campaigning.
