Surviving the "Pupocalypse": How Preservation Breeders Can Adapt and Thrive in a Slow Market Host Laura Reeves and Dr. Marty Greer dive deep into the sobering post-COVID "puppy bust" data, exploring how corporate veterinary pricing is pricing out everyday owners and sharing crucial survival strategies for both pet owners and preservation breeders. The post-COVID landscape has brought a dramatic shift to the canine world, colloquially dubbed the "pupocalypse" or "puppy bust." With new puppy veterinary visits down to just 62% of pre-COVID levels, the pet industry is facing a massive contraction. From skyrocketing veterinary costs driven by corporate consolidation to shifting economic realities for younger generations, pet ownership is at risk of becoming an exclusive privilege of the elite, reminiscent of the 1800s. Laura and Dr. Marty discuss how we got here, how to keep veterinary care affordable, the limits of telehealth for pets and how breeders need to change their own habits to survive this economic downturn. The Reality of the "Puppy Bust" The Shocking Data:New puppy vet visits have declined for four consecutive years, sitting at40% lower than they were in 2019. This baseline drop will affect veterinary canine visits for the lifetime of this generation of dogs.Contributing Factors:High inflation, a tough economy and the housing crisis are key drivers. Younger people are renting apartments rather than buying houses, leading many to opt for cats instead of dogs.The Silver Lining:Because the average canine lifespan is roughly 11 years, and millions of families obtained dogs simultaneously during the 2020–2021 COVID boom, Marty predicts a natural rebound in demand over the next few years as we reach the halfway mark of that cycle. Has the Veterinary Industry "Killed the Golden Goose"? The Corporate Takeover:Around50% of all veterinary clinics(and nearly all mid-to-large-sized clinics in many regions) are now corporate-owned.Skyrocketing Fees:Corporate management has fundamentally shifted fee structures, resulting in veterinary care price hikes ranging from28% to 51%.Accessibility Issues:Due to staffing shortages and post-COVID inefficiencies, local 24/7 emergency clinics have dramatically scaled back their hours. Smart Ways Owners Can Lower Vet Costs Prioritize Preventive Care:Keeping up with annual blood work, vaccines and heartworm/flea/tick preventives is far cheaper than treating preventable illnesses like Lyme disease, heartworm or leptospirosis.Utilize Patient Financing:Programs likeCare Credit(strictly for medical/veterinary use) andCherry Pay(which works like Klarna to split a large bill, such as a $600 wellness visit, into manageable $50 monthly payments) can make upfront care affordable.Buy Local and Build Relationships:Purchasing preventives and medications directly from your local vet's online store supports your local clinic. Maintaining an active, positive relationship with your vet ensures you won't get turned away to a costly emergency clinic when you need a last-minute appointment.Insure Early:Enrolling in pet insurance (likeTrupanion) at 8 weeks old is significantly cheaper than trying to insure an adult dog later on. The Truth About Veterinary Telehealth A State-by-State Divide:Telehealth legality is entirely dependent on where you live. States like California have embraced it, while others like Wisconsin strictly prohibit remote veterinary prescriptions.The VCPR Hurdle:To receive remote care, you must have an established Veterinary Client-Patient Relationship (VCPR). You can check your state's specific laws by searching your state's name alongside"veterinary practice act"and"VCPR".Physical Limitations:While great for visual diagnoses (like skin lesions or an inflamed prostate), telehealth cannot replace a physical exam where a vet needs to listen to the heart, palpate the abdomen or check gum color. Crucial Advice for Breeders in a Slow Market Secure Commitments First:Breeders should establish their online presence (websites, Facebook, Instagram) well in advance, take secure deposits and use Zoom calls to build face-to-face trust with distant buyers.Stop Being Our Own Worst Enemy:The dog fancy has historically damaged its own reputation with elitist behavior. Breeders must return phone calls promptly, consider simplifying intimidating contracts down to one easily readable page and be welcoming to the public at dog shows.Be Flexible on Housing Requirements:Demanding a fully fenced yard when young, qualified buyers live in urban condos with excellent local dog parks is an outdated practice that drives buyers straight to "doodle" breeders.Consider Alternative Placement Models:Look into guardian home arrangements to preserve important genetics without overwhelming your own household kennel space.

Royal Ascot 2026, reviewed through advanced sectional data. Total Performance Data analyst Adam Mills joins In The Money Media's Peter Thomas Fornatale to break down the meeting's biggest performances — finishing speeds, top speed, stride length and stride frequency — and what the numbers reveal about the road to the 2026 Breeders' Cup at Keeneland. We dig into the puzzling Queen Anne Stakes and Ten Bob Tony's 50/1 shock, explain exactly what "finishing speed" measures and why US dirt and European turf races run so differently, then turn to the Win-and-You're-In angles: Mission Central in the King Charles III Stakes, Ombudsman's monster Prince of Wales's Stakes repeat, and the gamble of the week — Bacio and Wesley Ward's electric sprint in the Palace of Holyroodhouse. Throughout, the conversation is about cross-form clues: which Ascot winners actually project to Keeneland, and which might get found out around a bend. A must-listen for handicappers, data-driven bettors, and anyone tracking the 2026 Breeders' Cup form lines.

A full-card Royal Ascot 2026 recap. Michael Adolphson joins In The Money Media's Peter Thomas Fornatale to go race by race through the meeting — the winners, the tough beats, and the cross-form clues that point all the way to the 2026 Breeders' Cup at Keeneland. From Ten Bob Tony's 50/1 shock in the Queen Anne to Mission Central's King Charles III Stakes win, Bow Echo's gutsy St James's Palace, Ombudsman's monster Prince of Wales's Stakes repeat, Scandinavia's stretch duel in the Gold Cup, Venetian Sun in the Commonwealth Cup, Precise in the Coronation, Almeraq's 25/1 Jubilee, and the American story of the week — Bacio and Wesley Ward in the Palace of Holyroodhouse — plus the Norfolk and the next generation of juvenile sprinters. Michael breaks down where each of these horses might land on the road to Keeneland, which trips suit, and the Win-and-You're-In picture across the meeting. Essential viewing for handicappers, bettors, and anyone following European Breeders' Cup form lines through the summer.

In which The Curmudgeons revisit the year before grunge exploded into the mainstream. And 1990 was indeed a really important year for the development of our beloved genre. Mother Love Bone was on the cusp of hitting it big until frontman Andrew Wood, a beloved figures in the Seattle scene, died of a heroin overdose. The band's album Apple, in the can but not yet released, was effectively tanked by its record label, robbing Wood of a posthumous star turn. But another enigmatic blonde guy started preparing for his own star turn in 1990, as Nirvana released a titanic single that signaled its pivot from sludgier sonics to a more commercial, song-driven approach. Another essential grunge band, Alice in Chains, also had its first leap toward superstardom in 1990 with the release of their downbeat glam metal juggernaut Facelift. By the end of this important year, the veritable stage was set for rock's last truly special phenomeon to become huge.      Enjoy the fantastic grunge and grunge-adjacent music of 1990 by accessing our special Spotify playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2wAlMYcAn38MwZKXMHoEto?si=57fc9f65e9184ad4   Here's a handy navigation companion to this episode.    (00:52 - 2:57) - Arturo Andrade sets the parameters for ourdiscussion of the grunge rock of 1990   (03:53 - 17:10) - The Parallel Universe, featuring reviews of new albums from Genesis Owusu and Twisted Teens   (18:09 - 48:30) - Arturo laments the effect of heroin on the story of grunge.

From growing up in Kentucky to three decades at NBC as one of its most reliable broadcasters, Tom Hammond brings the stories of a career in racing and sports to the Ron Flatter Racing Pod. Hammond talks about his earliest days not only in Lexington, Ky., radio but also in going to the track and getting involved with horses. He even spins a yarn about an early job as the announcer at a sales ring. Hammond majored in animal husbandry at the University of Kentucky, an achievement that translated well to his time covering races on national television. In a business that often rewards sizzle before the steak, Hammond discusses his staying power and all the years he hosted the Breeders' Cup and Triple Crown races, complete with post-parade nuggets that became his signature. Some of the great games and sports events that he has witnessed also are sprinkled in this conversation, and Hammond talks about how he is spending his retirement. Here is a hint. They race horses two months a year near his home in Lexington. Co-hosts John Cherwa of the Los Angeles Times and Keith Nelson of Fairmount Park offer their popular host chat. The Ron Flatter Racing Pod via Horse Racing Nation is available via free subscription from Apple, Firefox, iHeart and Spotify as well as HorseRacingNation.com.

For more than four decades, Tom Durkin's voice was synonymous with the biggest moments in horse racing. From the Kentucky Derby and Belmont Stakes to the Breeders' Cup and Saratoga, his soaring calls helped transform great races into unforgettable theater. But as Durkin reveals in his new memoir, "A Life's Calling: The Voice Behind the World's Greatest Horse Races," the story behind the microphone is every bit as compelling as the action on the track. In this wide-ranging conversation, Durkin reflects on an extraordinary journey that began as a horse-racing-obsessed kid riding Chicago's "L" train to Arlington Park and eventually led him to become the most recognizable race caller of his generation. Along the way, he recounts the unlikely lie that launched his career, the grind of the minor-league fair circuit, and the national breakthrough that put him on racing's biggest stages. But this episode goes beyond just racing history. Durkin offers a fascinating look inside the craft of live sports broadcasting, discussing the college theater training that shaped his style, the famous "Mayor Daley" notebook where he collected thousands of descriptive phrases, and the relentless preparation that fueled his success. He also speaks candidly about the fear of failure, self-doubt, and anxiety that shadowed his career — even at its highest peaks — and how those challenges ultimately became part of what drove him. Replete with stories about iconic races, vanished racetracks, broadcasting innovation, and a lifetime spent pursuing excellence, this conversation is both a celebration of one of sports' great voices and a revealing examination of the work, passion, and perseverance required to become one. + + +    SUPPORT THE SHOW: Buy Us a Coffee: https://ko-fi.com/goodseatsstillavailable The "Good Seats" Store: http://tee.pub/lic/RdiDZzQeHSY BUY THE BOOK:  "A Life's Calling: The Voice Behind the World's Greatest Horse Races,": https://amzn.to/435AJus SPONSOR THANKS:  Royal Retros (10% off promo code: SEATS): https://www.503-sports.com?aff=2 Old School Shirts.com (10% off promo code: GOODSEATS): https://oldschoolshirts.com/goodseats FIND AND FOLLOW: Linktree: https://linktr.ee/GoodSeatsStillAvailable Web: https://goodseatsstillavailable.com/ Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/goodseatsstillavailable.com X/Twitter: https://twitter.com/GoodSeatsStill YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@goodseatsstillavailable Threads: https://www.threads.net/@goodseatsstillavailable Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/goodseatsstillavailable/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/GoodSeatsStillAvailable/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/good-seats-still-available/

Kentucky Bred - Presented by the Kentucky Thoroughbred Development and Breeders Incentive Funds featuring trainer Tom Drury Jr

In The Money Media's Peter Thomas Fornatale (PTF) is back for the late-week Players' Podcast taking a look at Saturday horse racing action and betting opportunities. PTF is joined by Breeders' Cup Betting Challenge Champion Drew Coatney in the first segment for their usual handicapping of action from Woodbine for Saturday and is later joined on the show by inthemoneypodcast.com contributor Eric Solomon to break down racing from Monmouth for Saturday as well.

In The Money Media's Peter Thomas Fornatale (PTF) is joined by horseplayer and handicapper Nick Tammaro to take a glance at the upcoming Belmont Stakes 2026, which will take place on June 6 at Saratoga. The Triple Crown season in horse racing is nearing a wrap with the concluding event, the Belmont Stakes, attracting many runners from Kentucky Derby 2026 including last-to-first winner Golden Tempo, who also recently finalized a stud deal with Lane's End once his time on the racetrack has finished. Several other Kentucky Derby runners hopped over Preakness 2026 to target the Belmont Stakes including Mike Repole's runner Renegade, who finished second to Golden Tempo in Kentucky Derby 2026. A pair of Preakness 2026 runners in Ocelli and Chip Honcho are also probable to compete in this year's Belmont Stakes as well as Kentucky Derby runners Potente, Chief Wallabee, Commandment and Emerging Market. Chief Wallabee will give hall of fame trainer Bill Mott a chance to score back-to-back victories in the Belmont Stakes after he famously skipped Preakness 2025 with Kentucky Derby 2025 winner Sovereignty before winning Belmont Stakes 2025 in a romp over eventual Dubai World Cup champion Magnitude. Saratoga Race Course, traditionally the go-to horse racing meet of the summer on the East Coast, hosts the Belmont Stakes for the last time as renovations near completion on Belmont Racetrack, which also readies to host the Breeders' Cup come 2027 with its modernized grandstand and upgraded racetrack.

In The Money Media's Peter Thomas Fornatale (PTF) and Jonathon Kinchen (JK) catch up following a unique running of Preakness 2026 this past Saturday (May 16) at Laurel Park instead of the usual host track Pimlico, which is currently undergoing renovations. PTF & JK offer reactions and analysis of Preakness 2026 including on the mildly surprising win by Napoleon Solo, who scored under jockey Paco Lopez at a square price of 8-1, and talk in general about the 2026 Triple Crown season which started with a bang from Golden Tempo's sensational stretch run to win Kentucky Derby 2026 for jockey Jose Ortiz and trainer Cherie DeVaux. Triple Crown focus now shifts to three weeks from now up in Saratoga for the final jewel of horse racing's signature series with Belmont Stakes 2026, which so far has attracted the likes of Golden Tempo among other Kentucky Derby starters who opted to skip this year's Preakness Stakes. What did you think of the Preakness? What are your takeaways from the race? Share your thoughts in the comments! PTF sits down with Paul Halloran, author of the new book about Cody's Wish. Cody Dorman's story captivated the nation as the racehorse Cody's Wish rose to prominence. Cody met the foal in 2018 through Make-a-Wish, and the owners named the horse after Cody after seeing their connection. Cody traveled across the country to watch the horse run, drawing national attention.Cody saw Cody's Wish win a Breeders' Cup race at Keeneland in 2022 and was at Santa Anita in 2023 when the horse ended his career with a thrilling victory. The next day, on the flight home, Cody fell asleep on his mother's shoulder and did not wake up. While his death caused immeasurable sadness, those close to him were comforted that he was there for his horse right to the end.This is a story of resilience, triumph, and love—of the inexplicable yet undeniable bond between a courageous boy and the champion racehorse he considered his best friend. And it is a story that is still unfolding, with a life-size monument at Kentucky Horse Park debuting in 2025 and the first crop of Cody's Wish foals heading to the yearling sales in 2026, to race as two-year-olds in 2027.
