Over the past few years, our Netflix feeds have seen several high-profile documentaries designed to push the vegan movement. They promote the health, environmental, and animal rights benefits in a way books and articles simply can’t.

But many of these documentaries have also sparked blow-back both online and off. So it begs the question:

The answer is a bit more complicated than we thought…

Here’s what we talk about in this episode:

• The What the Health controversy.
• Is video the most powerful medium?
• NFL players going vegan.
• Vegan documentaries made just for vegans.
• What Forks Over Knives did right.
