It could have easily been a big letdown spot coming off the huge win at Penn State last week, but the Cats came out on a mission, shutting out Purdue in front of the 1995 Rose Bowl team in the final game at Martin Stadium. Now, sitting at 5-2 on the season, the Cats make their way to Lincoln to try and keep the momentum rolling into November.
This week on The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast, the guys discuss Laser Cats 5 from January 16th, 2010, Season 35, Episode 12. This installment of the Laser Cats franchise features not only Sigourney Weaver (who was definitely in the first Avatar) but legendary filmmaker James Cameron (creator of Avatar but not Avatar: The Last Airbender). Also, the guys are joined by special guest and Laser Cats co-star Bill Hader! It's a stacked and shaggy episode. So shaggy that you get a lesson in VistaVision for Akiva near the end when discussing Paul Thomas Anderson's new film, One Battle After Another. Plus, they talk about Seth's appearance on SNL two weeks ago and some of their favorite sketches from the Sigourney Weaver episode, including ESPN Classic and Larry the Goose on Weekend Update.

"Imagine if you told New Yorkers, 'Well, you want someone to take your trash away from your block? Oh, you're gonna have to find a volunteer to do that.' That's exactly what's happening here. But with animal care.” This episode is sponsored-in-part by Maddie's Fund. Stacy LeBaron talks with Allie Taylor, founder and president of Voters for Animal Rights (VFAR), an organization she started in 2016 to bring political voice for animals throughout New York State. Allie is a volunteer TNR rescuer in Brooklyn who has successfully passed numerous landmark laws including banning foie gras, banning wild animals in circuses, prohibiting the sale of guinea pigs in pet stores, and prohibiting backyard breeders. When she moved to Bed-Stuy, Brooklyn in 2016, she was struck by the overwhelming number of community cats and decided to get TNR certified and start trapping her block—like many cat advocates, quickly learning that you don't have to go much further than your own block to find plenty of cats that need help. In this episode, Allie discusses the broken system for community cat care in New York City, where everything falls on volunteers with no government support despite NYC having one of the worst per capita spending rates on animal care in the country ($2.89 per capita compared to $10 in Los Angeles, $13.70 in Miami-Dade, and $15 in Dallas). She shares the historic September 2024 City Council hearing where hundreds of cat rescuers testified, leading to the first-ever city funding for animals—$500,000 (later increased from the originally proposed $1.5 million) for spay/neuter services that will provide 3,500 additional surgeries. Allie also discusses VFAR's Community Cat Fund that has distributed $30,000 in grants to rescuers and organizations, including the largest grant to Bronx Community Cats to establish a trap bank in the Bronx. She explains why New York City desperately needs a fully staffed and funded Department of Animal Welfare, professional paid TNR workers, and free/low-cost veterinary care for all income levels to address the city's massive cat overpopulation crisis. Listeners will learn about the power of political organizing and advocacy to create systemic change for community cats, how to work effectively with city councils and state legislatures on budget processes, the importance of getting TNR advocates involved in local politics, and why addressing income inequality and providing resources to underserved communities is essential to solving cat overpopulation. Allie's work demonstrates that grassroots organizing, strategic lobbying, and holding elected officials accountable can lead to landmark victories that create lasting infrastructure for animal welfare. Press play now for: Why NYC's per capita spending on animal care ($2.89) is shockingly low compared to other major cities How hundreds of cat rescuers organized to testify at a historic September 2024 City Council hearing The first-ever NYC budget allocation for animal welfare: $500,000 for spay/neuter services Why TNR in NYC is completely volunteer-based with no city support or scheduling system The challenge of accessing ASPCA's free spay/neuter clinic as a newly certified TNR rescuer VFAR's Community Cat Fund that distributed $30,000 in direct grants to NYC rescuers The $5,000 grant to Bronx Community Cats to establish a trap bank in the Bronx Why NYC needs a fully funded Department of Animal Welfare (not just a one-person mayor's office) The connection between income inequality and cat overpopulation in NYC's boroughs How getting TNR advocates involved in local politics creates lasting systemic change The importance of making major investments in public education about keeping cats indoors and spay/neuter Why paid professional TNR workers could transform the city's response to cat overpopulation Resources mentioned: Voters for Animal Rights (VFAR) (https://vfar.org/) VFAR on Instagram (@votersforanimalrights) (https://www.instagram.com/votersforanimalrights/) ASPCA Spay/Neuter Clinic (https://www.aspca.org/) Brooklyn Cat Cafe / Brooklyn Bridge Animal Welfare Coalition (https://catcafebk.com/) Bronx Community Cats (https://www.facebook.com/bronxcommunitycats/) Flatbush Cats (https://www.flatbushcats.org/) NYC Mayor's Office of Animal Welfare (https://www.nyc.gov/site/animalwelfare/index.page) Animal Care Centers of NYC (ACC) (https://www.nycacc.org/) Sponsor Links: Maddie's Fund (https://www.communitycatspodcast.com/maddies635) Follow & Review We'd love for you to follow us if you haven't yet.

In this episode, Vance Crowe sits down with author Devon Erickson to explore why he calls himself a compulsive explainer and how he sees the role of an intellectual: not to end debates, but to start them with powerful metaphors and fresh lenses. They dive deep into empathy as a writer's core skill—simultaneously inhabiting a character's inner world and anticipating the reader's experience—and how that practice shapes Devon's science-fiction novel, Theft of Fire. From first-person perspective and memory palaces to the mechanics of metaphor in thought, they wander into bigger terrain: how online discourse reveals public preoccupations, why villains must believe they're right, and what it takes to write convincingly across gender and worldview.Their conversation also ranges into contested civic ground: the difference between empathy and sympathy, the dynamics of thug mentality and civilized restraint, the risks of escalating political tribalism, and the notion of “soft off-ramps” in American politics. They talk about immigration enforcement as theater versus necessity, institutional capture, and the appeal of centralized control to academics. Then they zoom back to the personal: metabolic health and processed food, the economic pressures on families, inflation as time theft, Bitcoin as an intergenerational lifeboat, and why some boomers feel out of touch with younger realities. They close with Devon's passion project—the cinematic, full-cast audiobook of Theft of Fire—and the promise of classic sci-fi spirit with modern tech rigor.Legacy Interviews - A service that records individuals and couples telling their life stories so that future generations can know their family history. https://www.legacyinterviews.com/experienceRiver.com - Invest in Bitcoin with Confidence https://river.com/signup?r=OAB5SKTPto support the show and buy Bitcoin use the link to our show sponsor River.com https://river.com/invite?r=OAB5SKTP(00:00:04) Opening: Sharing insights vs. repeating talking points(00:03:11) Host intro: Meeting Devon Erickson and The Theft of Fire(00:06:12) Metaphor as the engine of thought and memory(00:14:44) Empathy as a writer's core skill—villains, readers, and realism(00:19:59) Modeling minds: conversational load, perspective taking, and audiences(00:26:06) Writing across gender and identity—finding Miranda's voice(00:29:08) Speculative craft: writing what does not exist(00:30:04) Online discourse: empathy without sympathy and confronting hostility(00:36:55) Self‑defense mindset: lines, intent, and preparedness(00:41:49) Civility, uncivil actors, and the ‘soft off‑ramp' in politics(00:49:31) Purpose of a military and cultural standards debate(00:51:58) Media narratives, ICE, and dealing with the uncivilized(01:02:00) Marxism, envy, and institutions—power vs. merit(01:11:55) Inflation's danger and policy priorities ahead(01:14:16) Immigration, budget crises, and administration choices(01:14:32) Foreign influence and defining America's interests(01:18:14) Money tech: inflation, Bitcoin, and future‑proofing exchange(01:21:15) Order vs. chaos: El Salvador, gangs, and state response(01:37:07) Feminism, industrialized food, and metabolic syndrome(01:46:33) What causes the obesity wave?

Listen Now Convicted Deer Poacher Ordered to Watch Bambi Every Month For a Year A Missouri judge has ordered a convicted deer poacher to watch Bambi at least once a month during the year he will be spending in jail. The man is actually one of four family members implicated in a three-year hunting operation that resulted in the deaths of hundreds of deer. The prosecutor said the family mainly stalked their prey at night, killing the deer and taking their heads and antlers, and then they abandoned the carcasses. The state's Department of Conservation called it a thrill and kill sport for the men. By the way, the one-year jail sentence was initially suspended in favor of a two-year probationary period. But the guy who now has to watch Bambi quickly violated the terms of his probation, leading the Judge to reinstate the original one-year sentence with the additional Bambi twist.

Not all hauntings start with creaking floors or ghostly whispers—some begin with a cat. Twelve-year-old Bella from Colorado loved staying up late to watch TV, but one night, both televisions in her house turned on at the same time. Then her cat, Chloe, began staring into a cubby—growling, hissing, and refusing to go near the spot where their other cat, Luis, had once slept before he passed away. When Bella tried to calm Chloe, she was scratched so badly she bled, and the cat's terror only grew. Soon Chloe was hissing at empty spaces, refusing to stay in her favorite spot, and Bella began seeing shadows dart past her door—doors that she swore she'd latched shut. Was it just a frightened cat reacting to grief—or had the spirit of Luis the cat come home to reclaim his place? A haunting tale of loyalty, loss, and the thin line between comfort and fear, this real ghost story proves that sometimes, love doesn't end at the rainbow bridge. #RealGhostStoriesOnline #TrueGhostStory #GhostCat #PetAfterlife #ParanormalEncounters #ColoradoHaunting #AnimalSpirits #CatHaunting #AfterlifeConnections #HauntedPets #SupernaturalPodcast #SpiritAnimals Love real ghost stories?

Phillip Lietz of Arids Only and Project Herpetoculture discusses a wide scope of topics regarding the reptile keeping hobby, from the species of reptile that he breeds, domestication of reptiles, a little about aquaculture, and some double standards you see in various pet keeping communities. Phil talks about some of the science revolving around domestication of various reptile species, the advances that we would like to see regarding lighting, and some details of how invasive/native species interact in our world. Philip offers extremely well-thought out viewpoints on herpetoculture that every reptile keeper should keep in mind as we all progress in our hobby.SHOW NOTES: https://www.animalsathomenetwork.com/239-phil-lietz/JOIN US ON PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/animalsathomeLINKS FROM THE EPISODE:Arids Only IG: https://www.instagram.com/aridsonly/Arids Only FB: https://www.facebook.com/aridsonly/Arids Only Website: http://www.aridsonly.com/Philip's IG: https://www.instagram.com/plietz/Project Herpetoculture YT: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0UCdymrooiNVloQlxrW1FAProject Herpetoculture IG: https://www.instagram.com/projectherpetoculture/0:00 Introducing Phillip Lietz of Arids Only2:23 True Fauna by Faunalux3:24 Welcome Philip + Moving Updates With Arids Only13:37 New Projects and Species17:33 All About The Chuckwalla23:04 Thoughts on Herpetoculture + Reptile Keeping36:18 Domestication Of Reptiles + The Future44:50 Aquaculture vs Herpetoculture45:07 Animals At Home Patreon45:27 Aquaculture vs Herpetoculture49:43 The Link Between Animals + Parenting53:47 Double Standards in Reptiles vs Dogs/Cats59:25 The Criminal Behavior in The Hobby1:04:57 Discussion on Native Species + Advances in Science1:15:05 History of Feeder Insects + Bees in Herpetoculture1:26:50 Herpetoculture Consulting1:32:04 Closing Thoughts
Cattitude - Cat podcast about cats as pets on Pet Life Radio (PetLifeRadio.com)
This week on Cattitude, Michelle Fern chats with writer and critic Rebecca van Laer about her debut memoir, Cat. Van Laer explores how our lives with cats reshape the wild we've tried to domesticate—what “tame,” “neuter,” and “indoors” say about nature and about us. She shares why she chose a life plus cats (not kids), and how “undomesticating” herself alongside her senior companions Toby and Gus reframed love, work, and family. From cats' mysteriously divine histories to millennial burnout in a content-marketing grind, maternal fault lines, and the radical permission in feline laziness and pleasure, Rebecca's reflections purr with humor and honesty—right down to Gus's opinion: “I don't want to be famous…I just want to go to the basement.”EPISODE NOTES: Toby, Gus & Me: Choosing a Life Plus Cats with Rebecca van LaerBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/cattitude-the-1-cat-podcast--6666768/support.

Then we get into Justin Trudeau canoodling with Katy Perry (?!), Eric Adams' ex releasing an erotic memoir, Mississippi's surprising literacy glow-up, Kanye's new “world peace” campaign, and the AI that can now translate your cat's meows.Basically, the internet lost it this week - what else is new?

I think you know the gist by now... Bobby and I have fallen into quite the rhythm of kicking off every podcast with an unlikely chat about cats, but once we get that out of the way we launch into a fun banter on all things comedy, keynotes, keeping your pants on (maybe), and learning new skills. Enjoy!

Paul revels in the whipping of the Sooners and explains how and why it happened. An offense needs more than a hero ball QB and the Sooner defense can bleed. Then, it's on to the Cats. If Texas gets fat and happy and doesn't keep its violent edge and strong game planning from OU, we're in for a rude road awakening. The real opponent for Texas every year? Complacency.

The Football Feast is filled with story lines as the Chiefs, quite possibly, are playing better than any team in the NFL. I'll give you my thoughts on how they've turned this offense around and the Stan Weber will join me to discuss where it's going the rest of the season. Also, the Missouri Tigers certainly had plenty of chances Saturday against Alabama but come up short. It's a loss to Alabama, so everything is still possible for Mizzou. K-State pounds TCU in a game that looked a lot more like a Chris Klieman kind of performance. And KU's defense gets abused by a really, really good looking Texas Tech squad. And our Final Final is one of the most touching football and family moments anywhere.
