"Food is the foundation of life. We can use food to heal or we can use food to harm." — Dr. Judy Morgan What if the way we've been taught to care for our pets isn't always the best way? In this powerful and unapologetically disruptive episode of Turmeric & Tequila, Kristen Olson sits down with Dr. Judy Morgan, an integrative veterinarian with more than 40 years of experience, to challenge conventional thinking around pet health, nutrition, vaccines, and veterinary care. Dr. Morgan shares the personal journey that took her from a traditional veterinary practice she says she hated to an integrative approach incorporating food therapy, acupuncture, chiropractic care, Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine, and natural healing therapies. Then the conversation gets REAL. Dr. Morgan takes a hard look at ultra-processed pet food, how pet food is manufactured, ingredient labels, rendered products, carbohydrates, and what she believes pet parents need to understand before choosing what goes into their dogs' and cats' bowls. She explains why she prefers whole-food, raw, or gently cooked approaches and discusses what she considers red flags on pet food labels. The conversation also tackles: •             Why Dr. Morgan believes ultra-processed pet food deserves more scrutiny •             What "meat meal," "animal digest," and other pet food ingredients can mean •             Raw vs. gently cooked pet food •             Protein, carbohydrates, and species-appropriate nutrition •             Why cats have unique nutritional needs •             Taurine, carnitine, and the discussion around heart health •             How to make homemade pet food more practical •             Freeze-dried food and traveling with pets •             Pet vaccines, including rabies, DAP and leptospirosis •             Vaccine titers and the importance of understanding your pet's individual risk •             Flea, tick and heartworm prevention •             Why pet parents should advocate for themselves and their animals •             Finding a veterinarian you trust •             When surgery may not be the only option •             Acupuncture, chiropractic care and other integrative approaches •             Lipomas, arthritis and mobility •             Grooming as part of overall pet health •             Feeding schedules, fasting and "hunger pukes" •             The importance of asking questions instead of simply doing what you've always been told At the heart of the conversation is a bigger message that applies far beyond pets: Question better. Learn more. Advocate for yourself. And don't be afraid to look for another answer. Dr. Judy Morgan DVM, CVA, CVCP, CVFT has over 40-years-experience as an integrative veterinarian, acupuncturist, chiropractor, food therapist, best-selling author, international speaker, podcast host and owner of Dr. Judy Morgan's Naturally Healthy Pets. Her goal is to change the lives of pets by educating and empowering pet parents worldwide in the use of natural healing therapies, and minimizing the use of chemicals, vaccinations, and poor-quality processed food.

Transcript:Da: Det var en strålende sommerdag i Københavns Zoo.En: It was a brilliant summer day at Københavns Zoo.Da: Solen skinnede klart, og børnene fnisede, mens de holdt deres forældre i hånden.En: The sun was shining brightly, and the children giggled as they held their parents' hands.Da: Hver sti var omkranset af grønne træer og summede af energi.En: Every path was lined with green trees and buzzed with energy.Da: Meerkat-udstillingen var særlig populær denne dag, da de små, nysgerrige skabninger konstant dukkede op og forsvandt i deres underjordiske kroge.En: The meerkat exhibit was particularly popular this day, as the small, curious creatures constantly popped up and disappeared into their underground hideouts.Da: Astrid, Freja og Lars vandrede ned ad stien, ivrige efter at se de små seværdigheder.En: Astrid, Freja, and Lars wandered down the path, eager to see the small attractions.Da: Astrid, med sin kærlighed til dyr, gik foran, klar til at lære alt om, hvordan zoo fungerede.En: Astrid, with her love for animals, walked ahead, ready to learn everything about how the zoo operated.Da: Hun drømte om en dag at være en del af dette vidunderlige sted.En: She dreamed of one day being part of this wonderful place.Da: Freja, derimod, havde iført sig sit glimtende smil, fast besluttet på at vinde deres lille konkurrence om den bedste dyr-selfie.En: Freja, on the other hand, wore her sparkling smile, determined to win their little competition for the best animal selfie.Da: Lars gik langsomt bagved, hans hænder omfavnet sin mobiltelefon, klar til at tage det perfekte billede.En: Lars followed slowly behind, his hands gripping his mobile phone, ready to take the perfect picture.Da: Da de nåede meerkat-udstillingen, gik alt pludselig galt.En: When they reached the meerkat exhibit, everything suddenly went wrong.Da: Lars, i sin iver efter at tage et selfie, mistede balancen, og telefonen fløj ud af hans hænder og landede lige ind i meerkatternes område.En: Lars, in his eagerness to take a selfie, lost his balance, and the phone flew out of his hands, landing right in the meerkats' area.Da: "Åh nej!"En: "Oh no!"Da: udbrød Lars og forsøgte at forholde sig rolig.En: exclaimed Lars and tried to stay calm.Da: De små meerkats kiggede nysgerrigt på den underlige genstand, der nu lå mellem dem.En: The small meerkats looked curiously at the strange object now lying between them.Da: Freja, altid klar for en udfordring, foreslog, at hun kunne distrahere meerkattene.En: Freja, always ready for a challenge, suggested that she could distract the meerkats.Da: "Jeg laver en sjov dans!En: "I'll do a funny dance!Da: Det vil få deres opmærksomhed," sagde hun med et glimt i øjet.En: That will get their attention," she said with a twinkle in her eye.Da: Imens tænkte Astrid hurtigt.En: Meanwhile, Astrid thought quickly.Da: Hun besluttede sig for at finde en dyrepasser for hjælp, og forklarede sin store kærlighed til dyr og sin ønske om at hjælpe.En: She decided to find a zookeeper for help and explained her great love for animals and her desire to assist.Da: Freja faldt dramatisk ind i sin præstation, mens de små skabninger blev optaget af hendes usædvanlige bevægelser.En: Freja dramatically launched into her performance, while the small creatures were captivated by her unusual movements.Da: Lars, nervøs men optimistisk, bakkede op om hendes indsats og håbede, at det hele ville ende godt.En: Lars, nervous but optimistic, supported her efforts and hoped all would end well.Da: Kort tid efter kom Astrid tilbage med en dyrepasser, der bar på noget specialudstyr.En: Shortly after, Astrid returned with a zookeeper carrying some special equipment.Da: "Bare rolig," sagde dyrepasseren med et smil.En: "Don't worry," said the zookeeper with a smile.Da: Med præcise bevægelser og en lang stang, fiskede han telefonen op fra det farefulde sted, mens Freja's dans fortsatte med at underholde både meerkats og tilskuere.En: With precise movements and a long pole, he retrieved the phone from the dangerous spot, while Freja's dance continued to entertain both the meerkats and the spectators.Da: Da telefonen var sikkert tilbage i Lars' hænder, åndede de tre venner lettet op.En: With the phone safely back in Lars' hands, the three friends breathed a sigh of relief.Da: Dyrepasseren takkede Astrid for hendes hurtige tænkning og tilbød hende en invitation til at blive frivillig i zooen.En: The zookeeper thanked Astrid for her quick thinking and offered her an invitation to volunteer at the zoo.Da: Astrid kunne næsten ikke tro på sin lykke og lovede at vende tilbage den følgende uge.En: Astrid could hardly believe her luck and promised to return the following week.Da: Freja, selvom hun måske ikke havde fået den bedste selfie, kunne ikke benægte, at Astrids hurtige handlinger havde vundet dem alle en uventet sejr.En: Freja, though she might not have gotten the best selfie, couldn't deny that Astrid's quick actions had won them all an unexpected victory.Da: Hun klappede sin ven på ryggen og indrømmede hendes nederlag.En: She patted her friend on the back and admitted her defeat.Da: Og som solen begyndte at gå ned over København, slap de deres bekymringer.En: And as the sun began to set over København, they let go of their concerns.Da: Lars, med sin telefon nu sikker i tasken, grinede og

surface lies a place where time stands still.Da: Det er de gamle vandreservoirer.En: It's the old water reservoirs.Da: Pillerne står som staute vagter i halvmørket, og et stille ekko følger hvert et skridt.En: The pillars stand like stalwart guards in the twilight, and a quiet echo follows each step.Da: Det var her, Kasper havde besluttet, at deres lille startup-team skulle have deres næste teambuilding-udfordring.En: It was here that Kasper had decided their small startup team would have their next team-building challenge.Da: Planen var simpel: find vej gennem cisternens snoede gange og

smil.En: We need to collaborate to find our way out of here," said Kasper with a broad smile.Da: "Lad os vise, hvad vi kan!"En: "Let's show what we can do!"Da: Soren smilede svagt, mens tankerne kredsede om, hvordan han skulle klare det uden at blive centrum for opmærksomhed.En: Søren smiled faintly, his thoughts circling around how to manage without becoming the center of attention.Da: Da de bevægede sig dybere ind i cisternen, hviskede mørket hemmeligheder, og hvert trin blev til en lille eventyr.En: As they moved deeper into the cistern, the darkness whispered secrets, and each step became a small adventure.Da: Gruppen blev præsenteret for små gåder, som de skulle løse for at komme videre.En: The group was presented with small puzzles to solve to move forward.Da: Soren holdt sig i baggrunden, observerede, tænkte, som altid.En: Søren stayed in the background, observed, thought, as always.Da: På et tidspunkt stod de ved et kryds.En: At one point, they stood at a crossroads.Da:

følelse af fælles succes.En: When they finally reached their goal, it was with a feeling of shared success.Da: Søren var midtpunktet, noget han aldrig havde troet muligt.En: Søren was the center of

bredt og tilføjede, "Vi kunne ikke have gjort det uden dig."En: Mette beamed broadly and added, "We couldn't have done it without you."Da: På vej ud fra cisternerne var det som om Søren gik lidt lettere, som om han havde lagt noget bag sig.En: On the way out of the cisterns, it was as if Søren walked a little lighter, as if he had left something behind.Da: Han vidste nu, at hans evner rakte længere end til blot at kode.En: He now knew that his abilities extended beyond just coding.Da: Han kunne bidrage til gruppen på en måde, han aldrig havde troet mulig.En: He could contribute to the

past as they drove along the winding country roads.Da: Freja sad på bagsædet sammen med Sofie, som allerede så ud til at kede sig.En: Freja sat in the backseat with Sofie, who already seemed bored.Da:

came and often insisted on spontaneous stops.Da: "Far, kan vi ikke tage en lille omvej og se noget af den gamle by derovre?"En: "Dad, can't we take a little detour and see some of that old town over there?"Da: spurgte Sofie, da hun fik øje på et skilt, der pegede mod en nærliggende landsby.En: asked Sofie as she spotted a sign pointing toward a nearby village.Da: "Nej, vi holder os til planen.En:

and continued to follow the GPS.Da: Stilheden i bilen blev kun brudt af hjulenes susen mod asfalten.En: The silence in the car was only broken by the whirring of the wheels against the asphalt.Da:

be a time for us all to enjoy, not to argue."Da: Sofies øjne mødte Jens', og for et øjeblik blev der stille.En: Sofie's eyes met Jens's, and for a moment, there was silence.Da: Til sidst nikkede Jens modvilligt, og Sofie trak på skuldrene.En: Finally, Jens reluctantly nodded, and Sofie shrugged.Da: Freja havde formået at styre stormen og bringe ro tilbage.En: Freja had managed to steer the storm and bring back calm.Da: De drejede ind på en smal grusvej, der førte til en malerisk eng med udsigt over en lille sø.En: They turned onto a narrow gravel road that led to a picturesque meadow

Sofie grinede af sine egne erindringer.En: Freja listened to Jens as he told stories from his childhood, while Sofie laughed at her own memories.Da: Da de ryddede op efter sig, følte Freja en lethed, hun ikke havde følt længe.En: As they cleaned up afterwards, Freja felt a lightness she hadn't felt in a long time.Da: Hun havde lært, at hvis hun kunne finde sin stemme, kunne hun også skabe en bedre forståelse mellem dem alle.En: She had learned that if she could find her voice, she could also create better understanding among them all.Da: Familien havde stadig sine udfordringer, men nu var der en lille åbning mod forbedring.En: The family still had its challenges, but now there was a small opening towards improvement.Da: På vej tilbage mod bilen kiggede Freja ud over det glitrende vand.En:

Transcript:Da: Søren stod i København og betragtede de blinkende lys, der snoede sig gennem Tivoli Gardens.En: Søren stood in København and watched the twinkling lights winding through Tivoli Gardens.Da: Det var sommer, og lydene af latter, musik og duften af sukkerfløde og brændte mandler fyldte luften.En: It was summer, and the sounds of laughter, music, and the scent of sugary cream and roasted almonds filled the air.Da: Men Søren følte sig tom indeni.En: But Søren felt empty inside.Da: Tivoli's årlige sommerkoncertserie havde startet, og som en passioneret musiker havde han håbet på at finde inspiration til nye melodier her.En: Tivoli's annual summer concert series had begun, and as a passionate musician, he had hoped to find inspiration for new melodies here.Da: Alle omkring ham var i festhumør.En: Everyone around him was in a festive mood.Da: Tivolis hovedscene var pakket med mennesker, både lokale og turister, der svajede til musikkens rytme.En: Tivoli's main stage was packed with people, both locals and tourists, swaying to the rhythm of the music.Da: Maja, Sørens veninde, vinkede til ham, mens hun dansede til en velkendt popsang.En: Maja, Søren's friend, waved at him while dancing to a familiar pop song.Da: "Kom nu, Søren!"En: "Come on, Søren!"Da: råbte hun med et smil.En: she shouted with a smile.Da: Men Søren kunne ikke få sig selv til at slå sig løs.En: But Søren couldn't get himself to let loose.Da: Tonerne var for velkendte, for jævne til at tænde hans kreative gnist.En: The tunes were too familiar, too ordinary to ignite his creative spark.Da: Søren smilede til Maja og besluttede at trække sig tilbage fra menneskemængden.En: Søren smiled at Maja and decided to withdraw from the crowd.Da: Han begyndte at vandre gennem haven, væk fra larmen.En: He began to wander through the garden, away from the noise.Da: Ved en lille stensætning sad Anton, en ven fra musikuniversitetet, og spillede lavmælt på sin guitar.En: By a small stone enclosure sat Anton, a friend from the music university, playing softly on his guitar.Da: Anton nikkede i anerkendelse, men Søren bevægede sig videre.En: Anton nodded in acknowledgment, but Søren moved on.Da: Han var på udkig efter noget helt andet.En: He was looking for something entirely different.Da: På sin tur opdagede Søren en skjult lille pavillon, kun belyst af nogle få lanterner.En: On his stroll, Søren discovered a hidden little pavilion, illuminated only by a few lanterns.Da: Her sad en gademusikant, alene og i sin egen verden.En: Here, a street musician sat, alone and in his own world.Da: Gademusikanten spillede med lukkede øjne, og hver tone var fyldt med en sådan dybde og følelse, at det ramte Søren lige i hjertet.En: The street musician played with closed eyes, and each note was filled with such depth and emotion that it struck Søren right in the heart.Da: Musikken var enkel, men rå og ærlig.En: The music was simple, yet raw and honest.Da: Søren kunne mærke, hvordan musikken begyndte at vække noget i ham.En: Søren could feel how the music began to awaken something in him.Da: Han satte sig ned på en nærliggende bænk og lukkede øjnene, mens tonerne flød gennem natten.En: He sat down on a nearby bench and closed his eyes as the notes flowed through the night.Da: Øjeblikket var magisk, og Søren mærkede, hvordan ideerne væltede ind over ham.En: The moment was magical, and Søren felt how the ideas started pouring in.Da: Han tog sin notesbog op af tasken og begyndte at skrible melodier ned, der kom til ham i en strøm.En: He took his notebook out of his bag and began jotting down melodies that came to him in a stream.Da: Da gademusikanten tog en pause, gik Søren hen til ham.En: When the street musician paused, Søren walked over to him.Da: "Tak," sagde Søren og rakte hånden frem.En: "Thank you," Søren said, extending his hand.Da: "Dit spil har inspireret mig."En: "Your playing has inspired me."Da: Gademusikanten smilede varmt og nikkede.En: The street musician smiled warmly and nodded.Da: "Musik er overalt, min ven.En: "Music is everywhere, my friend.Da: Nogle gange skal man bare lytte."En: Sometimes you just have to listen."Da: Med fornyet energi gik Søren tilbage gennem Tivoli Gardens, mens de små lys blinkede over ham.En: With renewed energy, Søren walked back through Tivoli Gardens, while the little lights twinkled above him.Da: Han kunne ikke vente med at komme hjem og arbejde videre med de nye melodier.En: He couldn't wait to get home and work further on the new melodies.Da: For Søren var det en vigtig opdagelse.En: For Søren, it was an important discovery.Da: Inspiration behøver ikke at komme fra de store scener eller kendte toner.En: Inspiration doesn't need to come from the big stages or well-known tunes.Da: Nogle gange findes den i de mest stille og usete hjørner.En: Sometimes it is found in the most quiet and unseen corners.Da: Med denne erkendelse følte Søren sig rigere og mere klar til at skabe noget smukt.En: With this realization, Søren felt richer and more ready to create something beautiful.

hendes syn blev gradvist dårligere.En: However, in recent days, Freja had noticed something troubling—her vision was gradually getting worse.Da: På trods af sommerens endeløse dag, var Frejas verden blevet svøbt i tåge.En: Despite the endless daylight of summer, Freja's world had become shrouded in fog.Da: Bogstaverne på tavlen blev slørede, og frygten for at fejle sit arbejde voksede i hende.En: The letters on the blackboard became blurry, and the fear of failing her job grew within her.Da: Mikkel, en lokal fisker, bemærkede hendes uro.En: Mikkel, a local fisherman, noticed her unease.Da: Han var kendt for sin dybe viden om traditionelle helbredelsesmetoder.En: He was known for his deep knowledge of traditional healing methods.Da: "Måske kunne jeg hjælpe," sagde Mikkel efter en dag med fiskeri.En: "Perhaps I could help," said Mikkel after a day of fishing.Da: Hans råd var baseret på de visdommelige traditioner, der var gået i arv gennem generationer.En: His advice was based on the wise traditions that had been passed down through generations.Da: Han foreslog at bruge saften fra en sjælden grønlandsk plante, kendt for sine helbredende egenskaber.En: He suggested using the juice from a rare Greenlandic plant, known for its healing properties.Da: Freja tøvede.En: Freja hesitated.Da: Hun var usikker på at vælge mellem Mikkels traditionelle metoder og muligheden for at rejse til den nærmeste klinik, som lå langt væk og krævede en svær rejse.En: She was uncertain about choosing between Mikkel's traditional methods and the possibility of traveling to the nearest clinic, which was far away and required a difficult journey.Da: Men med hver dag, der gik, blev synsproblemerne værre, og Mikkels tilbud virkede mere og mere som en nødvendig løsning.En: But with each passing day, her vision problems worsened, and Mikkel's offer seemed increasingly like a necessary solution.Da: I samråd med Sofie, besluttede Freja sig endelig for at prøve Mikkels plantekur.En: In consultation with Sofie, Freja finally decided to try Mikkel's plant remedy.Da: Hun lukkede øjnene, mens saften forsigtigt blev dryppet i dem.En: She closed her eyes as the juice was gently dripped into them.Da: I en stille spænding ventede de tre.En: In quiet anticipation, the three of them waited.Da: Langsomt, begyndte Freja at mærke en fornemmelse af klarhed.En: Slowly, Freja began to feel a sense of clarity.Da: Verden omkring hende blev gradvist skarpere.En: The world around her gradually became sharper.Da: Med synet kom også indsigt.En: With sight came insight.Da: Freja følte en dyb respekt for den lokale visdom, som hun før havde undervurderet.En: Freja felt a deep respect for the local wisdom she had previously underestimated.Da: Hun forstod nu balancen mellem moderne medicin og oprindelig viden.En: She now understood the balance between modern medicine and indigenous knowledge.Da: Hendes taknemmelighed overfor Mikkel og hans folk var stor.En: Her gratitude towards Mikkel and his people was immense.Da: Som dagene gik, blev Frejas syn bedre.En: As the days went by, Freja's vision improved.Da: Hun fortsatte sin undervisning med fornyet energi og åbnede sit hjerte for det lille samfunds kultur og traditioner.En: She continued her teaching with renewed energy and opened her heart to the culture and traditions of the small community.Da: Hun så nu værdien i at lytte til dem omkring hende og indkorporerede denne lærdom i sit arbejde og liv.En: She now saw the value in listening to those around her and incorporated this learning into her work and life.Da: Og således fandt Freja ikke kun sin synsevne igen, men også et klarsyn i hjertet, der forblev, længe efter hun var rejst tilbage fra kysternes endeløse sommernat.En: And so, Freja found not only her ability to see again but also a clarity of heart that remained long after she returned from the endless summer night of the coasts.

Ivy Ireland had never tried anal before her first ever scene on camera. Not only did she take it like a pro, she found that she loved it, and after a multi-orgasmic scene Ivy was already asking for a double penetration. That was her first week in the industry.Now two and a half years later she is performing for the biggest names in the business, co-directing full feature films, and about to drop a DAP (double anal penetration) she shot earlier this year with Johnny Darkko. She explains why this scene is one of the most physically and creatively demanding things she has ever done, and why it was all worth it.Plus, the unbelievable story of Ivy's devout Christian friend strapping on a dildo in her pants just to fake a blowjob angle for OnlyFans, why anal is easier on her body than vaginal, and how she and Vince Carter built a creative partnership that goes way past just performing together.She is funny, completely unfiltered, and knows exactly who she is. Watch the whole thing.Sponsor & LinksHuge thanks to SC World for sponsoring the show!Follow them at instagram.com/scworld.officialFollow Holly Randall on all platforms: Hollylinks.comSubscribe for more exclusive interviews and behind-the-scenes content from the adult industry! patreon.com/c/hollyrandallunfilteredBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/holly-randall-unfiltered--6630320/support.

AgCast is back — with new vigor but the same goal: bringing farmers and agricultural leaders together for conversations about the ideas, businesses, and decisions shaping the future of agriculture. In the first episode of the new season of AgCast, Chad Fiechter and Todd Kuethe sit down with Hunter Swisher, CEO and founder of Phospholutions, to explore one of the most important — and least understood — challenges facing modern agriculture: phosphate fertilizer. Phosphorus is essential for crop production, but it's also a finite resource controlled by a handful of countries around the world. As fertilizer prices remain a major concern for farmers, this conversation breaks down what's happening behind the scenes — from phosphate mining and global shipping routes to fertilizer production, supply chain disruptions, and what it could mean for farmers heading into future growing seasons. Hunter explains how Phospholutions is working to improve phosphate fertilizer efficiency, why traditional MAP and DAP fertilizers lose much of their value after application, and how new technology could help farmers produce more with fewer inputs.
