	Description:		This week, Paul and Andy are joined in conversation with their dear friends Callie and Nichole, the co-hosts of Vegan Warrior Princesses Attack! Podcast, to dissect the latest developments in the animal rights community as it relates to #metoo and #timesupAR. With several prominent figures in the animal welfare scene being tagged with allegations of sexual harassment and abuse, they break down the timeline and discuss the implications it has for the future as well as ways in which allies can best provide support. You can always reach The Bearded Vegans by emailing thebeardedvegans@gmail.com or visiting TheBeardedVegans.com Vegan Warrior Princesses Attack! can be found at VeganWarriorPrincessesAttack.com and iTunes. During this episode we failed to properly credit the #ARTooWhite campaign to Collectively Free. Additionally, we neglected to mention their work behind the scenes attempting to hold FARM and the conference accountable. This was an oversight on our part and we should have done more research before speaking about it.
