A proposito di questo titolo

Vegans are a controversial, much-maligned group, but we're all just regular human beings who live, love, and laugh. And man, can we talk shit. Join Jon, Vanessa, and Joey as we talk shit about what it's like to be vegan. Every week, we'll be talking shit about a different topic related to living a vegan lifestyle; the good, the bad, and the ugly. But since we seem to be completely incapable of staying on topic, we also talk shit about music, movies, comic books, and anything else that might come up during the conversation. So tune in to Vegans Talking Shit, available weekly on Apple Podcasts, Amazon, Spotify, YouTube, or wherever you get your podcasts.

  • Non-Vegan Voices: Shain
    Feb 17 2026

    With Jon and Vanessa in Brazil, Joey unleashes another Non-Vegan Voices episode, this time with his Gen Z friend Shain, a walking and talking comic book encyclopedia. After an origin story of their friendship, Joey attempts to dive right into the world of superheroes, but Shain effectively pulls a "Vanessa," keeping the show anchored to its plant-based roots. Shain has to do this several times throughout the episode, as Joey seems hellbent on focusing primarily on comic books. As they continue, Shain discusses being the son of Jamaican immigrants and the grandson of a Rastafarian, prompting Joey to take a sharp left turn into his dating history with a Chinese-Jamaican woman and the "delicacy" known as Goat Head Soup. The banter continues as Shain describes the short documentary he made at the comic book store and why Joey isn't in it. They then geek out over comic books written by filmmaker and noted vegan Kevin Smith, DC's hugely successful Absolute Universe, and the burning question of whether or not Absolute Batman kills people. Before heading to a feast at Vegan Tierra, the two close out the show discussing "cupcake vegans," vegan cupcakes, and chocolate. Clearly, they were hungry!

    Watch Shain's short documentary, "Comics Are Cool: Please Read Them":

    Trigger Warning: Shain's comic book is extremely graphic and contains animal cruelty, child abuse, gratuitous violence, and gore. I love it, but it's very dark, so the trigger warning is well-earned!

  • Are Vegans Gay?, Part Two
    Feb 10 2026

    After clumsily handling the topic in part one, The Tofu Trio spends the second half of this two-part episode practically ignoring it altogether. Instead, they dive into niche religions like Jainism, the Hare Krishna movement, and Satanism. Eventually, Jon brings up the movie "Time Bandits," only to then confuse "The Time Machine" with "Time After Time." Vanessa then previews an upcoming trip to Brazil, and Joey reminisces about his time volunteering at farm sanctuaries, which includes his revelation that he found joy in shoveling poop. It was only a matter of time before someone on this show literally talked shit again!

  • Are Vegans Gay?, Part One
    Feb 3 2026

    With all the subtlety and sensitivity of a drunk ape wielding a sledgehammer, The Tofu Trio tackles the provocative (and, let's be honest, shamelessly clickbaity) question posed in today's title. In part one of a two-part episode, the group discusses the common outsider perception that a disproportionate number of vegans are gay, and the various reasons why that stereotype exists. Their clunky conversation covers, among other things, the demographics of Wilton Manors, the unsubstantiated fear that soy makes men feminine, and some of the other classic plant-based misconceptions. True to form, about half the episode is a complete detour: Vanessa unlocks the secrets of "Blue Zones" like Loma Linda, CA, Jon defends his preference for cats over dogs, and Joey launches into a passionate, slightly tragic deep dive on why his favorite dog breed, the English Bulldog, should no longer be bred.
