Cow Ribbons, Webcams in Slaughterhouses, and Animal Documentary Reviews

Here’s this week’s show:

To start the show, we’ll be discussing the idea of having mandatory webcams in slaughterhouses that anyone can have access to, to enable the consumer full transparency when it comes to seeing how our food gets to our plates.
