“The One About Lisa Arden and Hella Cool Dog” is available for you to tune in on! You don't want to miss a second of this episode! This week Lisa Arden is on the show talking about how she started fostering, the foster ups and downs and even the foster fails (which is a good thing!). She wears so many hats--dog mom, foster mom, hospice foster, small business entrepreneur and foster mentor--and each one of them shows her love and dedication to finding forever homes for as many dogs as she can. She is a hero!

What is COOLDOG? Why is COOLDOG? Find out in this pilot episode of the show as host aksually talks about his life and the inner workings of COOLDOG.

Okay, so it's not a Christmas episode, but it's definitely a bizarre one! The holidays kept us from recording, so we wanted to reach back into the vault and share another episode of our (10 year!) old podcast, The First World Privilege Hour with Pat Medaugh. In this episode we discuss Cool Dog, a movie about (wait for it) an all right dog. We'll be back in the new year with our regular schedule and the first in our miniseries on spies.

Tennille Teague, the founder of JUST FRED, joins us to talk about an emerging dog accessories brand from Brooklyn that sits (+ stays) in the intersection of freedom and alternative self-expression. Tennille says: “We are a cruelty-free pet accessories brand that really focuses on helping the underdogs.” “Our focus is on inclusion and community - almost like a rebellious creative spirit that we're trying to harness.” “There is this really special way that we live with our dogs these days, and it's evolving more and more, that Just Fred encompasses.”

Bill and Allen continue to endure and summarize Dorei-ku the Animation(4-6). This week we discuss the backstory of such wonderful characters as a very cool dog and a bread factory worker who breaks the conditioning. There are discussions of deeply uncomfortable subjects such as sexual assault and slavery. Despite the illegality, slavery remains a real and present evil in modern society and we will be having links in the descriptions of all episodes on Dorei-ku to anti-human trafficking organizations. Next episode, we will be tackling the next three episodes (7-9) of Dorei-ku. https://donate.polarisproject.org/page/54176/donate/1 --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/bad-anime-podcast/support

Boyks and Ilyon delve deep into what makes a dog cool, with our Forrest Gump style adventure with German Shepard Rainy and a cast of wholly unlikeable and forgettable humans. At least the dog is cool!

Between new episodes, we'll be releasing from the dog house episodes that previously appeared on the Predict-O-Cast feed or on Patreon. This week, it's our episode on Cool Dog, originally released November 23, 2018. Here's what we had to say back then: Hot Diggity Dog is officially Cool Diggity Dog as we discuss the coolest dog movie ever: 2010's Cool Dog. This dog is absolutely the coolest dog we've ever seen: he outwits a bumbling dog catcher, he foils some bullies with a well-placed tennis ball launcher, he plays harmonica with a bunch of boxcar hoboes, he DRIVES A CAR. This dog seriously is the coolest dog. Also, Josh faces a startling truth about himself.

use human bones in your occult rituals because you relate better to the energy they carry. * Selling your leftover human bones after you're done doing all your curses. * Whether or not the guy selling human bones on Etsy is cool, and whether they'd be cooler if they were a dog. * Loving Bribe Dog even though by all rights he ought to be in jail. * A small dog gumming at a stranger's ankles and not

alternate reality where nothing happens and no-one cares.

Your Stupid Minds makes its triumphant return to the "family" genre with another talking dog movie in the spirit of our Cool Dog episode: it's Bailey's Billion$! Jon Lovitz plays Bailey, a talking dog that only Theo Maxwell (Dean Cain, Lois and Clark:The New Adventures of Superman) can understand. Can Bailey help Theo set up a triple love connection between Bailey and another dog, Theo and beautiful animal rights advocate Marge Maggs (Laurie Holden, The Walking Dead), and creepy weird kid Max and Marge's daughter Sam? Or will the dastardly Caspar Pennington (Tim Curry, Beauty and the Beast: The Enchanted Christmas) and his wife Dolores (Jennifer Tilly, American Strays) ruin everything by kidnapping and/or murdering everyone to get their hands on Bailey's fortune? Tune in to find out!

Starring Scott Bromley, Brian Altano, Anthony Gallegos, and Ryan Scott, with special guest Jack DeVries.

Today marks the first in an experimental series of podcasts here on the blog. I’m trying out the medium: taking the gear out for a ride and exploring different ways of talking about things that I’m interested in. Putting this piece together brought back a lot of memories about Nouspeak, a weekly spoken word programme on Trent Radio that I was one of the production team for; I enjoyed that experience, and I had a good time editing this piece together. Today’s podcast: Cindy Burton, owner of the recently-closed Cool Dog Deli in Charlottetown, talks about the ideas behind the deli, the challenges she ran into running it, and how it came to close. I have long been a fan of the CITY-TV programme The Originals, especially its “interviewless” format. I’d experimented with the format in radio projects before, and decided to return to it for this piece. Here’s the tech used to assemble today’s podcast: My “in studio” voiceovers were recorded into Sound Studio using the Omnidirectional Tie Clip Microphone from Radio Shack connected to my iMac using a Griffin iMic (see this technical note). I recorded the telephone interview with Cindy Burton using the Monitor command in our Asterisk telephone system. The result is two WAV-format files, one for each side of the telephone conversation. I broke Cindy’s part of the interview up into individual clips using Audacity; I exported each of the eleven clips as a 16-bit, 44 Khz AIFF file. I used Apple’s GarageBand to edit everything together: I imported my intros and Cindy’s clips, added a soundtrack, and exported into iTunes. I then exported as a 24kbps mono MP3 file from iTunes (which compressed the file from 108MB down to a more reasonable 2MB!). Thanks to Cindy for agreeing to talk about her experiences; you can email her at cindy@cooldogs.ca or visit her website at bigdogsolutions.ca.
