Leysan Zigangirova on Leveraging Human Taste to Beat AI Slop

Anika sat down with Leysan Zigangirova to explore how marketing leadership must evolve as artificial intelligence makes content creation almost free. The conversation revealed a crucial truth: AI cannot replace human judgment, strategic risk-taking, or deep audience insight. Leysan's 15-plus-year background spanning Procter & Gamble, Philip Morris, Microsoft, Nebius, and now Async offered practical insights into transitioning from consumer marketing to tech startups, rebranding major products, and keeping human taste at the center of innovation.   In This Episode The early career roots in consumer market intelligence at P&G and managing the Marlboro Gold original rebrand Shifting from fast-moving consumer goods to enterprise tech at Microsoft Building Yandex Cloud from scratch and leading the visual identity and brand name creation for Nebius Taking a 15-country sabbatical around the world and how it built mental agility for the AI era Why marketing must share a revenue KPI with sales to eliminate department silos The danger of waiting for perfect data versus making bold, human-driven decisions Why Async shifted from Podcastle to focus on asynchronous creativity and editing co-creation The growing importance of human taste as a competitive advantage against AI-generated "slop"   Timestamps 04:11 — Managing the Marlboro Lights rebrand to Marlboro Gold and navigating ethical challenges within restricted tobacco markets. 07:13 — Transitioning into the technology sector at Microsoft and working on the Azure cloud rollout. 08:58 — Building Yandex Cloud from scratch and co-founding the brand identity for Nebius, leading to $700 million in strategic financing. 10:33 — Taking a life-changing 15-country global sabbatical and using that mental agility to adapt to fast-paced AI environments. 16:11 — Unifying metrics: Why marketing and sales must share revenue KPIs to build trust and eliminate departmental silos. 18:37 — Navigating uncertainty: The danger of waiting for complete data and why human risk-taking separates leaders from AI. 21:30 — Balancing AI automation with human judgment, resource reality, and operational limitations. 23:48 — The evolution of Async: Transitioning from Podcastle to an AI-native editing co-pilot for asynchronous creativity. 25:44 — The value of human taste: Why subjective perspective and authentic quality serve as the ultimate competitive defense against AI "slop". 31:47 — Advice for modern founders: Starting with core user conversations and anchoring strategy in founder passion.   Key Insights & Takeaways   Insight 1: AI Lacks Resource Reality and Risk-Taking   While AI optimizes productivity and text/image generation, it cannot comprehend internal team dynamics, operational capabilities, or resource realities. Furthermore, AI avoids risk, whereas human leadership relies on making bold decisions with incomplete data.   Insight 2: Marketing Must Share Revenue KPIs   Treating marketing purely as a brand equity exercise builds a wall between departments. When marketing shares a revenue KPI with sales, data tracking improves, inter-departmental hostility dissolves, and both teams work cohesively.   Insight 3: Speed Trumps Perfect Data in Fast-Moving Markets   Planning cycles have shrunk from annual strategies down to monthly or bi-weekly alignments. Waiting for complete data causes organizations to miss their window; modern leaders must embrace calculated risks and navigate blind spots faster than competitors.   Insight 4: Human Taste is the Ultimate Competitive Advantage   As AI-generated content increases, the internet is flooded with low-quality "slop". True market distinction stems from human taste, subjective perspective, and genuine emotional connections that technology cannot replicate.   Insight 5: Rebranding Requires a Deep Structural Pivot   A successful rebrand goes far beyond semantics. When Podcastle evolved into Async, it mirrored a complete structural shift toward asynchronous video creation, ensuring the brand identity aligned directly with evolving user needs and product reality.   Resources & Links Mentioned Async (formerly Podcastle)  Nebius Microsoft Azure   About Leysan Zigangirova Leysan Zigangirova is a seasoned marketing leader with over 15 years of experience scaling global brands. Starting her career in consumer and market intelligence at Procter & Gamble and managing iconic portfolios at Philip Morris, she later transitioned into technology. She spent four years at Microsoft, helped build Yandex Cloud from scratch as a founding member, created the brand identity for Nebius—which attracted $700 million in financing—and traveled across 15 countries on a life-changing sabbatical. Today, she serves as the Chief Marketing Officer at Async, helping creators and teams embrace asynchronous video creation and AI-driven editing.   Connect with Leysan LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lzigangirova/ Website:  https://async.com Like the show?

Fixing Broken Customer Service Before Agentic AI Arrives With Parloa

The Tech Blog Writer Podcast

Why are companies preparing for agent-to-agent customer service when many customers still cannot get a chatbot to answer a straightforward question? In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I speak with Latané Conant, Chief Marketing Officer at Parloa, about the state of customer experience and what businesses must repair before agentic AI becomes another barrier between customers and support. Parloa's State of Agentic CX report assessed 10,000 enterprise websites, 4,000 chat interactions, and 100 phone trees. According to the company's findings, fewer than 10% of the tested chat conversations achieved the customer's goal. Only 1% of enterprises demonstrated readiness for automated agent-to-agent interactions. Those results raise a difficult question about years of customer experience investment. Businesses now have websites, chatbots, mobile applications, email, messaging, and phone systems, but customers frequently struggle to find help or complete the task that brought them there. Latané argues that part of the problem comes from treating customer service primarily as a cost center. When the objective is reducing contact volume, organizations can unintentionally make themselves harder to reach. This overlooks the commercial and operational information contained within customer conversations. Calls can reveal onboarding problems, unexpected product uses, recurring faults, and potential sales opportunities. Latané explains how analyzing service conversations can give marketing, product, operations, and executive teams a clearer picture of what customers are experiencing. We also examine why so many chatbots reproduce the frustration of traditional phone trees. Although the interface looks conversational, the system underneath may still rely on rigid categories and predefined routes. Customers then find themselves trying different words or repeatedly requesting a human agent. Latané describes a better agentic customer experience as being closer to talking with someone who already knows you. A personal AI agent could remember previous interactions, understand preferences, work across voice and text, and complete a request without making the customer repeat information. That possibility also introduces questions about trust, permissions, personal information, and oversight. Latané discusses the need to monitor what AI agents are doing, identify when conversations move away from approved subjects, and use supporting agents to detect potentially harmful behavior. Human involvement remains particularly important when a conversation involves distress, vulnerability, or emotional care. In Latané's roadside assistance example, AI can arrange a tow truck for a flat tire. If it detects signs that the caller is in distress, the conversation should move quickly to a person. We finish by considering what this means for customer service employees. Latané believes experienced representatives and operations teams can become builders and managers of AI agents, applying their customer knowledge across a much larger digital workforce. If the existing customer service front door is confusing and unwelcoming, should businesses repair that experience before inviting AI agents through it? Listen to the episode and share your thoughts with me.

This week, I'm turning the mic over to Audrey Neff, host of True to Form, and replaying the conversation she originally shared with her audience. Audrey put me in the hot seat with the financial questions medical spa owners need to be asking as they grow.  A full schedule can still produce weak cash flow, a second location can magnify problems that already exist, and a practice that depends on its owner for every decision will be difficult to scale or sell.  Audrey and I connect these issues by following the money from individual treatments through to the long-term value of the business. The Metrics Behind a Financially Healthy Med Spa  Free cash flow gives an owner choices. It can fund cash reserves, support a new location, reduce debt, or create an exit opportunity. Producing more of it requires a clear understanding of which treatments fill your schedule and which ones contribute meaningful margin.  In this episode, we discuss:  Why reviewing a P&L without interpreting it leaves owners with more numbers but very little direction  How revenue per hour, margin per treatment, patient retention, and customer lifetime value influence cash flow  Why injectables can bring patients through the door while leaving little room for profit when pricing, commissions, and discounts are poorly managed  How "Bed Bath and Botox" discounting cuts into an already thin injectable margin  The missed retail sales opportunities hiding inside treatment plans and patient conversations  Why a med spa should have four to six months of cash reserves before opening a second location  How to identify and reduce owner dependency by asking, "What breaks first when I leave?"  What buyers examine when calculating enterprise value, including cash flow, owner dependency, customer concentration, and operational risk  The Five-Part Financial Playbook  Here are the exact steps we use to evaluate a practice's financial health:  Core profit: Are your treatments priced to produce healthy margins?  Operating profit: Can your budget support the team and infrastructure required to run the practice?  Cash flow: What remains after your equipment, debt, taxes, and other obligations are paid?  Customer value: Are you retaining patients and increasing the value of those relationships?  Enterprise value: Can the practice continue producing reliable cash flow without depending on you?  Following the steps in order helps you identify the financial constraint that deserves your attention now instead of trying to fix everything at once. Get your free Playbook here.

I've spoken to Kash Shaikh before. Kash's mission-driven attitude is infectious, and his enthusiasm is contagious. You may remember him from his two previous appearances on the Black Baseball Mixtape podcast. In both episodes, Kash talked about his role as founder and CEO of Baseball United. This visit is different — Kash is different. For the first time in person, I spoke with Kash, now the Chief Marketing Officer for Perfect Game — the largest amateur baseball organization in the country. Kash's mission is to grow PG both domestically and internationally.Perfect Game is one of those ubiquitous organizations involved in everything amateur baseball. I bet you the majority of all players in MLB have had some interaction with PG at some point in their career. But do you really know how involved Perfect Game is in setting the standard for a multi-billion-dollar youth baseball industry? Let me tell you, PG is heavily involved. But does that mean PG is responsible for the current travel ball structure? Is PG responsible for the cost of every travel organization? The actions of every travel coach? They can't possibly be responsible for all of that, right? What I can share is that PG takes the hit for a lot of things, good and bad, within the travel ball ecosystem. The honest answer is more complex, so I'll let Kash explain. PG is indeed the leader within amateur baseball. PG's decisions affect the entire travel ball landscape. They wear that mantle with pride, but it's also true that some things are beyond PG's control.Last weekend, I set out to better understand Perfect Game. This is just the start of my journey.

Qualys returns to Black Hat USA 2026 with an AI Risk Operations Center built around three principles customers have been asking for over the last three years. May Mitchell, Chief Marketing Officer at Qualys, walks through them in order. Detect vulnerabilities at AI speed. Prioritize what surfaces, because not every finding calls for action in the same hour and the sequence follows the workflows a team already runs. Eliminate it through autonomous remediation, then confirm the fix worked. Mitchell also notes that Qualys has been a Black Hat sponsor for over 23 years. What are security teams asking for at AI speed? They want detection to keep pace with disclosure. Mitchell points to InstaScan, the innovation Qualys launched during Black Hat week, which provides continuous scanning and detection. The meetings on the floor have been with customers from across the regions, not only the US. How has the AI conversation shifted since RSAC Conference? It has narrowed to implementation. Mitchell says the messaging moved from AI to agents to autonomous, and that this year the questions are targeted. How do I implement it. How do I get it into the workflows. How do I have governance. The economics of AI sits alongside those questions, with more asked about ROI, since budgets are not rising across the board. That pushes organizations to evaluate their technology stack, consolidate, and look for a single platform that gives complete visibility and gives security leaders something they can take to a board or a CFO. Customization depends on the size of the organization, and larger heterogeneous environments are where Qualys partners come in with risk assessment services, planning, integration, and ongoing management.

Why the Magic Is in the Details: Disneyland's Playbook for B2B Marketers | Kris Lande (OutSystems)

A two-hour wait in the summer heat. Overpriced churros. A parking lot that takes 45 minutes to escape. And yet - you remember every single ride, every firework, every detail. That's not an accident. That's Disneyland. Disney doesn't create magic through one big moment. They create it through thousands of tiny, intentional details working together. And in this episode, we dig into what that means for B2B marketers with our special guest Kris Lande, CMO at OutSystems. Together, we explore how to design end-to-end customer experiences that people actually remember, why the last impression is the lasting impression, and how to build community into your content strategy in a way no AI-generated campaign can replicate. About our guest, Kris Lande Kris Lande is Chief Marketing Officer of OutSystems, where she leads global marketing strategy and brand growth. With more than two decades of experience driving marketing for high-growth SaaS companies, Kris brings deep expertise in product marketing, category creation, and community-led growth. Before joining OutSystems, Kris spent over 13 years at Salesforce, where she led teams across product marketing, developer relations, and Trailhead. Earlier in her career, she led marketing at Escapia, a SaaS startup later acquired by Expedia. Kris holds a degree in Business Administration and International Business from Washington State University. About OutSystems OutSystems is the Agentic Systems Platform for companies who need to build governed AI apps and agents, fast. Global brands like Heineken and Bosch trust OutSystems every day to build everything from mission-critical life-saving apps to  AI agents that can automate their oldest, clunkiest legacy processes. Essentially, OutSystems gives our customers comprehensive AI tools under one secure roof, turning IT into a fast-moving innovation engine. What B2B Marketers Can Learn From Disneyland: The last impression is the lasting impression. Disney doesn't just nail the opening - they engineer the ending. Kris applies this directly to her event strategy: at OutSystems ONE, their annual conference in Amsterdam, the closing session ended with a full spirit tunnel - staff lining the exit with music, dancing, and high fives. "I want them to walk away feeling gratitude and feeling celebrated and feeling energized as they walked out that door." In B2B, most experiences just... end. The brands that create magic are the ones that design the goodbye. Identify friction points - then design around them, not away from them. Disney doesn't eliminate the wait. They make the queue part of the experience. Kris takes the same approach to events: knowing that European attendees tend to arrive late, her team put a mobile DJ, a saxophone player, and stroopwafels outside the doors before the morning keynote. "We made it a party outside because we knew that was going to be a friction point." The lesson: don't pretend friction doesn't exist. Find it, name it, and design something remarkable around it. Everyone's in marketing - culture is how you deliver on the brand promise. Disney's magic doesn't live in one department. It lives in every cast member, every queue, every trash can placement. Kris ties this to a principle she carries into every team: "Brand is a promise to the customer, and culture is how you actually deliver on that promise." That culture comes through in the SDR call, the webinar, the email copy - everywhere. "I believe everyone's in marketing. As employees, we are representatives of the culture." Quote"When you care and you're passionate about the details, your customers are gonna feel that. They can feel when you care about something. They can feel when you brought fun into something. And if you care, they will care." - Kris Lande Time Stamps [1:35] Meet Kris Lande, CMO at OutSystems [2:08] Why Disneyland? A Non-Disney Adult Makes the Case [4:06] What Is Disneyland?

This week on the podcast, Patrick and Tracy welcome Natalie Zina Walschots, author of VILLAIN. About VILLAIN: The hench once called Anna, now known to her colleagues and enemies as the Auditor, has carved out a wicked name for herself. Any superhero unlucky enough to cross her path knows her potential and powers. Surely, her recent success should taste sweet: she has an incredible job with lots of perks, her boss will literally annihilate anyone who crosses her, and her greatest enemy, the former hero Supercollider, has been utterly defeated—literally ground to a still-living pulp. But the Auditor still has her sights set on a greater work: destroying The Draft, the organization that makes, trains, and manages the world's most powerful superheroes. These “heroes” have shown time and time again that they do more harm than good (she has the spreadsheets to prove it), and now is the time to stop the damage at its source. Yet all is not well for the Auditor and her fellow evildoers. Her employer, Leviathan—the world's most feared supervillain—is not coping well with Supercollider's defeat at someone else's hands. As their relationship deepens, her work-life balance increasingly involves navigating the feelings of someone who doesn't believe they have any. Moreover, her unlikely ally and unexpected friend, Quantum Entanglement, has reappeared, forcing the Auditor to confront all the ways they deceived each other. Tension and uncertainty haunt the Auditor, and the fear that their triumph is about to crumble looms over all of them. The Auditor soon finds herself facing down an opponent unlike any she's taken on before—not another superhero, but someone like her, someone much more dangerous: The Draft's Chief Marketing Officer. Their conflict isn't a test of physical prowess, but ideas, and as their fight escalates, she’ll need more than preternatural pattern recognition, data analysis, and a horrific imagination to meet this challenge. It's guerrilla ad warfare, and the Auditor might have finally met her match. About Natalie Zina Walschots: Natalie cultivates fandoms, builds new communities, develops character voices, leads interactive fiction workshops, designs alternate reality games, constructs branching narratives, and most mornings opens Tumblr before opening her eyes. Her client list includes scrappy indie game studios, critically acclaimed television shows, mixed martial artists, print magazines, talk shows, NGOs, and a few more that defy categorization. Natalie's work wins awards, grows audiences, and introduces people to the thing they often end up loving most in the world. As a writer and journalist, you can find her work in the National Post, The Walrus, Quill & Quire, The Globe & Mail, and beyond. She's the author of two poetry collections, DOOM: Love Poems for Supervillains and Thumbscrews, and the novels Hench and its sequel Villain. Hench, dedicated to the plight of hench-people (the downtrodden and often expendable employees of supervillains), was a finalist on the 2021 season of Canada Reads and a nominee for the Locus Award for Best First Novel. Natalie has presented at Console-ing Passions, CGSA, Digital Odyssey, TCAF/CSSC, and more. She is an active member of Dames Making Games, and has previously worked with Pixelles, Concordia's Technoculture, Art and Games Lab, and The Hand Eye Society.

Leaders she's long admired, publishing content that no longer sounds like them. On this episode of Finite by Clarity, she makes the case that this matters more than most CMOs think, not because AI-assisted content is wrong, but because publishing without judgement, experience or voice quietly erodes trust.Elizabeth is Chief Marketing Officer of Contentful, a digital experience platform trusted by more than 4,800 customers. Before Contentful, she was CMO at Tableau, a Salesforce company, and led Strategic Technology Partnerships marketing at Salesforce, launching relationships with AWS, Google Cloud, Alibaba and Apple.In this episode, Jodi Norris sits down with Elizabeth to unpack how the buyer journey has changed shape, and why the instinct to produce more content is usually the wrong one. Elizabeth explains how cutting webinar output and being more selective on topics increased registrations and conversions, and how keeping personalisation deliberately simple, segmenting by audience type rather than complex micro-targeting, delivered a 195% increase in click-through rate.Inside you'll find…Why the small, repeated tells of AI-generated content are quietly costing leaders their audience's trustWhy "less is more" content strategies are outperforming high-frequency productionHow simple, broad-strokes personalisation is consistently outperforming complex micro-targeting

My guest today is Marie Bahl, Chief Marketing Officer at Uptempo. A few weeks ago, Marie published an article called Martech Built Empires—Now It Needs Bridges. More recently, she shared a manifesto with me that expanded on many of those ideas. Marie argues that marketers have spent years becoming data janitors, spreadsheet detectives, and professional explainers of their own value.Instead of building brands, driving growth, and shaping business strategy, too many marketing teams are trapped by trying to prove they deserve a seat at the table. She also believes that AI won't fix that problem. In fact, if we don't address the underlying issues first, AI may simply help us fail faster. We're going to talk about why marketing finds itself in that position, what leaders are getting wrong about AI, and what it'll take for marketing to reclaim its role as a true growth engine.

She leads DemandTec's marketing organization and shapes how the market understands its retail trade intelligence platform. Before joining DemandTec, Amanda held marketing leadership roles at FourKites, Blue Yonder, and e2open. In this episode… B2B buyers are surrounded by polished content and increasingly similar brand voices. As AI makes publishing easier, how can a brand remain recognizable and trustworthy? Amanda Dyson, an enterprise B2B SaaS marketing leader with deep experience in pipeline generation, says the answer is an authentic voice supported by a clear point of view. Instead of using AI to manufacture finished thought leadership, she recommends using it for ideation, then bringing people back in to add judgment, originality, and trust. Amanda encourages marketers to focus on the audiences they can serve best, take bolder positions, and connect creative work to measurable business outcomes. Together, these practices give buyers something specific to believe in rather than simply more content to consume. In this episode of the Revenue Engine Podcast, Alex Gluz talks with Amanda Dyson, Chief Marketing Officer at DemandTec, about how B2B brands can stand out in a crowded market. Amanda explains how to build a distinct point of view, use AI without losing originality, and connect marketing to pipeline.

When everyone's chasing the latest shiny marketing tactic, what does it look like to grow a law firm by doing less but better? In this episode, Elliot Johnson shares how “addition by subtraction,” disciplined strategy, and deep content can transform both your firm's brand and your client experience.   In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Elliot Johnson discuss: Addition by subtraction and prioritization in marketing Career journey into legal marketing and CMO role Jujitsu as a framework for leadership, patience, and strategy Personal branding for lawyers vs. firm branding Content, SEO, AI, and aligning marketing with client experience   Key Takeaways: Focusing on a small number of high-impact initiatives—and cutting everything else—is often the fastest path to meaningful growth. Mastery in any discipline, whether jujitsu or marketing, comes from deliberate fundamentals, patience, and long-term commitment rather than quick wins. Lawyers who intentionally build personal brands online give clients confidence, create future career options, and support their firm's broader marketing efforts. Aligning your external marketing promises with a genuinely strong client experience is essential for generating trust, five-star reviews, and referrals. Strategic, expert-driven content now serves not only human readers but also AI and search engines, making it a crucial long-term investment for any law firm.   "We want them to be able to confidently recommend us." —  Elliot Johnson   Check out my new show, Be That Lawyer Coaches Corner, and get the strategies I use with my clients to win more business and love your career again.   Join the Be That Lawyer Community and connect with ambitious lawyers who are serious about growing their book of business, strengthening their brand, and becoming confident, consistent rainmakers.   Ready to go from good to GOAT in your legal marketing game?

We're running one of our favorite episodes from The Business of You archives. If you missed it the first time, or just want to listen again, check this one out! With the digital marketing world changing so fast, how can you keep up? Sunny Dublick shares her recommendations for effective marketing and how your company can innovate to stay ahead of the curve. Sunny is an award-winning marketing specialist and founder of Sunny Dublick Marketing. She has spent more than 15 years in the marketing and advertising industry, working with high-profile clients such as the Philadelphia 76ers and HanesBrands, as well as small and medium-sized businesses spanning the hospitality, retail, and professional services industries. After nine years working for various advertising agencies and corporate marketing departments, Sunny set out on her own, forming Sunny Dublick Marketing to provide transparent and effective marketing solutions to businesses nationwide. Her strategies are designed to inspire creativity and enable clients to grow the best, most authentic version of their brand. The Future of AI in Marketing The digital marketing landscape is constantly shifting. Instead of fighting to stay ahead of the curve and keep up with rapidly changing technology, Sunny recommends slowing down. If you decide to incorporate something new, be intentional. Act from a place of purpose instead of fear of the future. At one point, no one knew how to post on Facebook or run Google ads. There were a lot of unknowns — but business owners and marketers figured it out over time. The same will be true for AI and these new technologies. The important part is to stay open and be willing to try new things. If you want to incorporate AI into your marketing, Sunny recommends using it to kickstart ideas rather than write all of your content. It can be helpful for a first draft, so you're not staring at a blank page, but it still needs a human touch. No one wants to read a blog post written entirely by AI. The Importance of Innovation The role of marketing in your organization goes beyond generating new leads. Your marketing team can also problem-solve across departments, inspire new offers, and overcome sales objections. Instead of assuming there's a marketing problem when leads slow down, Sunny recommends starting at the source. Are your offerings still what your customers want? Is there room for innovation and growth? Has the market evolved? Separating marketing from branding, sales, and finance doesn't serve your organization. This is why more and more companies are shifting away from Chief Marketing Officers to Chief Growth Officers or Brand Officers, to bridge different functions. Enjoy this episode with Sunny Dublick… Soundbytes 10:59–11:21 "People are looking forward to like, Metaverse and Web 3.0 and how do we stay ahead of that? There's always been, for a really long time, a question mark of where things are going. And I think the worst thing that you can do, from a marketing perspective, is just running after that shiny object and being like, I have to do this too, right?" 23:07–23:30 "Oftentimes companies will work with a marketing company and they'll have a fancy new logo, some pretty pictures on a website, and they're like, cool, we're done, right? That's what I call lipstick-on-a-pig marketing. You made it pretty. But at the end of the day, your offering is something that can and should change over time." Quotes  "The beautiful thing about marketing, especially digital marketing, is so much of what you need to know is available to be self-taught." "The worst thing that you can do from a marketing perspective is run after that shiny object." "The nature of marketing is one in which you always have to be agile, and you always have to be willing and able to try new things."

Going on vacation should be relaxing—but for cat parents, figuring out who you can trust with your feline family member can be the most stressful part! This week on Cattitude, Michelle Fern welcomes Emily Grossman, Chief Marketing Officer of TrustedHousesitters, to explore a unique approach to pet care that connects pet parents with verified animal-loving sitters who stay in the home while their owners are away. Emily explains how the membership-based community works, how sitters are vetted, why trust and transparency are so important, and what cat parents should look for before inviting someone into their home. Plus, Michelle and Emily tackle the myth that cats are perfectly content being left alone for days, why staying in their familiar home environment can be especially important for felines, and how photos, updates and a little preparation can give nervous cat parents some much-needed peace of mind while they're away.EPISODE NOTES: Have Cats, Will Travel!
