Nominate your veterinary hero here today! Veterinary Medicine was a 2nd career for Jill Clark, DVM, who had a successful 17-year career as an Assistant Director in film and television production that followed her early start in that profession as a child actor. Looking for a change, she was accepted into veterinary school and graduated from Oklahoma State University with her DVM ('96). Clark practiced medicine in a 6-doctor practice as an associate and then Medical Director of a satellite practice for 10 years before joining a group of 8 hospitals that grew to 80, National PetCare Centers, eventually taking on the Vice President of Operations role. Next up, she served 12 years with VCA in hospital operations, managing 22 General and Specialty Practices, and then as a vice president at the VCA home office in Los Angeles, overseeing VCA's doctor recruiting team, campus relationships, and intern/resident placement. In 2010, she was responsible for creating VCA's award-winning corporate university, WOOF-U, which trained and developed over 24,000 veterinary learners and is still VCA's primary training vehicle today. Clark founded IGNITE Veterinary Solutions in 2016 with the singular goal of elevating the role-specific knowledge and capabilities of veterinary teams to enhance their well-being and the well-being of the patients and clients they serve. Her passion for the underserved learners in our profession is obvious in IGNITE's focus on CSRs and their advancement. Clark and her co-author, Kristi Fisher, CVT, created the Veterinary Receptionist Certificate of Excellence (VRCE), which has made a material difference in the lives of more than 5,000 CSRs and growing. Her passion for elevating CSRs to a new level led her to create the non-profit North American Association of Veterinary Receptionists (NAAVR) in 2024 with Debbie Boone, CVPM, and Rhonda Bell, CVPM, PCM, CDMP. This association advocates for CSRs, normalizes and creates continuing CSR education tracks at state and national conferences, and provides the tools necessary for CSRs to thrive in their role. Her nearly 30-year career in veterinary medicine has been dedicated to constantly improving veterinary outcomes and operations. It has created many opportunities for the professional growth of the incredible people who make up our profession. Clark's other passions are showing American Quarter Horses and spending time with the love of her life and fellow veterinarian Bob Murtaugh, DVM, MS, and their 7 dogs, 9 horses, 4 cats, 4 goats, 4 mini-Belted Galloway cows, and 4 chickens on their ranch outside of Austin, Texas.

Intro music: Samplefocus.comUsage: Standard licenseStory and Cover art by: Gail NoblesYou didn't think podcasting could have an AM radio sound, did you? Well, I suppose in this digital age, sound quality is king, but let's not forget the charm of those crackly, static-filled airwaves we grew up with. Ah, the golden days of radio! There's something about tuning in to your favorite station, praying that the signal comes in clear so you can enjoy the music without the distraction.Once a radio station ceases to exist, it's as if the very spirit of its history diappears. It's left like a whisper in the wind—only lingering in the minds of those who once tuned in. Take WHIT, for instance. There I was, a little girl in the 70s, listening to what felt like magic coming from a car radio as I enjoyed a ride. I have a notion that it was an AM station, broadcasting from somewhere that felt like a world away.I can almost hear the strains of Randy Newman's “Short People” floating through the air, mixed with the smooth vibe of Paul McCartney's “Silly Love Songs.” There was Charlie Dore crooning “Pilot of the Airwaves,” and Debbie Boone telling me, “You Light Up My Life.” How can I forget Melisa Manchester's “Don't Cry Out Loud,” or Candi Staton's “Run, Heart, Run Free”, and Yvonne Elliman's “If I Can't Have You.” Now, I don't know if I heard all these hits on WHIT specifically, but the memories are neatly tucked away with that station.And let's not overlook the charismatic Wolfman Jack—how could we forget the man who owned the airwaves? He spun records with the enthusiasm only a true radio DJ could muster.AM radio might have been fuzzier than a cat's fur, and the static could drive you nuts, but there was a certain warmth to those imperfect sounds. The music managed to shine through the noise, and that's what made it special. I didn't care about the interference; I was too busy lost in the melodies that carried my dreams.

Theft and embezzlement are a sad reality that many practices face. While we may not be able to ever eliminate the problem, there are certainly things we can do to proactively prevent the mishandling of practice resources. No one wants to work with an untrustworthy team but the truth is some people lie and some people steal. It's important to protect the business and it will require oversight even in the face of trust. Today's guest is John Cunnington, MBA CVPM who works as a Regional Director of Operations for VCA Hospitals. He has been in the industry for many years and is passionate about helping hospital teams reach their goals. In our conversation today, John shares examples of theft and embezzlement that he has seen and how they might have been prevented. He also explains that no matter what protections we have in place, it may still happen. What do we do in that situation? John gives a lot of great tips on how to handle this uncomfortable situation to help you be prepared for this possibility.   Show Notes: [2:34] - Over the years, John has seen a lot of money stolen and when he first got into veterinary medicine, he was surprised how things like this unfold and that the culprit was often in management. [4:18] - There are several reasons someone may decide to commit theft. Some may feel entitled to the money, some could be driven by the thrill, some find themselves in a bind. [6:54] - Debbie shares an experience with a manager who gave herself a hefty raise without authorization. [8:29] - John believes that when employees feel respected and are being paid a decent living wage, it could decrease the risk. [10:20] - Being friends with your team members is fine, but it is possible to become too chummy and they may feel like they can take advantage of the relationship. [12:10] - You don't want just one person in charge of all tasks in a specific area. There needs to be cheques and balances. [14:56] - Asking questions about money inconsistencies can be uncomfortable but important. People need to know that you are looking. [16:40] - Large scale thefts and embezzlement generally start small. [18:27] - Be prepared for these possible reactions in the conversation with a theft suspect that you are confronting. It's important to stay calm. [19:40] - Even if they feel that they have a reason for their action, you need to hold firm. Theft is still wrong. [22:09] - Debbie shares an experience in knowing a theft had taken place but no one would come forward. The police were called to get to the bottom of the matter. [24:14] - Generally speaking, stolen money is probably not going to be returned. [25:52] - Cameras are always a good idea to have in place. [27:45] - Employees need to know that the cameras are there for their safety as well. [29:15] - As leaders of a practice, it all starts with a conversation. Be open about the checks and balances that are in place.  [31:35] - VHMA had a very good webinar on preventing fraud and embezzlement by Debbie Boone in 2012. The ppt can be found on the VHMA website.   Thank you for listening. Remember you are not in this alone.

It's 2022, which means there should be new episodes about albums from 1992 up next. However, 1991 just had too many albums to discuss and Somewhere in Time Podcast continues their discussion about albums from '91 with both Use Your Illusion 1 and Use Your Illusion 2, by Guns 'n Roses. How do these albums compare to GnR's classic debut album?

Alright, folks, break out your platform shoes and your dance clothes, because What the Riff is headed down to the club!  KC and the Sunshine Band was playing in all the disco dance studios in 1977, but they were particularly prominent in the Miami market, near their home town of Hialeah, Florida.  We're riffing on Part 3, unexpectedly the fourth studio album from the group (though there was a bit of a reset with their second album being self-titled and the first album having only moderate success).Harry Wayne Casey was a part time employee at TK Records in Hialeah when he formed the band, originally called KC & the Sunshine Junkanoo Band.  Casey worked with Richard Finch, engineer for TK Records, to produce the albums, including Part 3.  Additional musicians joined, including Jerome Smith on guitar, Robert Johnson on drums, and numerous others to complete the horn section.  KC and the Sunshine Band would find a virtuous cycle, as Casey and Finch would write songs inspired by what they saw at the discos, then would see their songs played at those same clubs.KC and the Sunshine Band were often featured as guests on FM pop powerhouse Y-100, and this exposure contributed to their success.  The first big hit was their second and self-titled album released in 1975, which produced the hits “Get Down Tonight” and “That's the Way (I Like It)”  Part 3 would continue their funk/disco dominance.  The band would continue to see success through their sixth studio album released in 1979.  Shortly thereafter styles would change, and the disco sound would not continue into the 1980's.  That, and a falling out between Casey and Finch would end the band for a while.KC and the Sunshine Band has seen a resurgence with the popularity of retro bands, and still tours today.  Wrap Your Arms Around MeThe fifth single from the album is a little bit of a deeper cut and features the horns prominently with a funky groove.(Shake, Shake, Shake) Shake Your BootyYou can't go wrong with a dance song that tells you to shake your booty!  Although this first single from the album was number 1 on both the Billboard Hot 100 and the Hot Soul Singles Chart, there was some controversy attached to it, with speculation that it had a stronger sexual connotation than simply dancing.I'm Your Boogie ManThis song written by Casey and Finch also hit number 1 on the Hot 100.  Finch said that the song was written about a DJ named Robert W. Walker, who was the first to play their song “Get Down Tonight.” Keep It Comin' LoveA little softer than some, this song nevertheless was still successful.  However, it only reached number 2 on the Billboard Hot 100, being kept out of the number 1 slot by Meco's “Star Wars Theme/Cantina Band,” and the big hit of the 70's, Debbie Boone's “You Light Up My Life.” ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:Main Theme from the television series “Fantasy Island”Headlined by Ricardo Montalban as Mr. Roarke and Herve Villechaize as his right hand man, Tattoo, this show would feature a stream of actors and actresses playing one-off characters chasing their dreams on the island. STAFF PICKS:Isn't She Lovely by Stevie WonderBruce leads off the staff picks with what feel is one of the most positive songs you will ever hear.  Wonder celebrates the birth of his daughter Aisha Morris on this song that opens side three of his double album, “Songs in the Key of Life.”  All instrumentation in the song is played by Wonder except for a few of the keyboard parts which were furnished by Greg Phillganes. Hard Luck Woman  by KissRob's staff pick sounds a lot like Rod Stewart for good reason — it was written by Paul Stanley for Stewart.  Though Stanley thought it sounded like “You Wear It Well,” his band Kiss decided it would be a good follow up to their successful ballad, “Beth.”  The song made it to 15 on the charts, and is a rare ballad.  Drummer Peter Criss sings lead on this song, as he did on “Beth.”Red by Sammy HagarWayne brings us the Red Rocker, Sammy Hagar, with an anthem off his second solo album.  This is also the album and song which gave him the name “the Red Rocker.”  A fan called him the Red Rocker when getting a picture, and Hagar liked the name.  The album was recorded at Abbey Road Studios.I Never Cry by Alice CooperBrian wraps up the staff picks with a mellow ballad from the not-normally mellow Alice Cooper.  This is from the album “Alice Cooper Goes to Hell,” a concept album inspired by his visit to rehab.  Many of his fans were disappointed with this softer side of Cooper, but his performances never suffered for the presence of a ballad or two.     COMEDY TRACK:In The Mood by Henhouse Five Plus TooIt appears that we need to close this podcast out before it goes to the birds!

What an incredible artist with such a powerful voice and an array of musical talents. Jacqine has gained notoriety as a prolific singer/songwriter/keyboardist/multi-instrumentalist/and arranger in a wide array of genres. With a distinct voice and influences that extend the gamut from Alison Moyet, Annie Lenox, Maysa, Lalah Hathaway, Lara Fabian, Phoebe Snow, to many other vocalists, she has built quite a music following. Talented on keyboards, she has a keen sense of choosing instrumental sounds that reflect an unequivocal unique combination of chord patterns for each song she creates. Her journey into music at a very young age began with her dad who introduced her to 1950's and 1960's records of Mama Cass and Edie Gorme as well as Debbie Boone, Barbra Streisand, and other artists and popular movies. She listened to Miichael Jackson, Tavares, Cerrone, Chic, and a number of 1970's classic groups. Some of Jacqine's favorite music includes: Earth, Wind, and Fire, Kool and the Gang, Incognito, Ambrosia , Elton John, the Eagles, Shalimar, Shakatak, Phil Collins, Kansas, and Chicago. She creates complex harmonies, chord progressions, melodies and lyrics and creates and emulates other instruments on keyboards such as saxophone, guitar, flute, oboe, clarinet, strings, bass, brass which has led to demo recordings and live performances, She studied voice privately with Iris Marrus with Susan Windor (Jazz teacher at Mannace School of Music)as well as Jazz Improvisation in a group and where she learned traditional Jazz and very complex chord progressions with the creation of jazz melodies and chord progressions in anticipation of song development. She studied and sang pop music as well with a Pop and Jazz vocalist. Her introduction to Smooth Jazz began while listening to CD101.9 and hearing Peter White's track Caravan of Dreams on the radio in addition to Pat Metheny's music. She bought CD's and a number of albums of various Smooth Jazz artists latest releases such as David Benoit, Tom Scott, David Sanborn, and Jonathan Butler. Jacqine became an avid listener and huge fan of the music, attending shows of Stanley Jordan, Richard Elliot, Brian Culbertson, and listening to additional Smooth Jazz radio stations as well. In a chance meeting, she was introduced to the dance genre after a producer heard her sing and she got her first production nonexclusive deal with a producer which led to doing more records non-exclusively with several producers, one of whom she was asked to co-write. She found success with a song she co-wrote that was licensed at the Cannes Film Festival in France in 13 countries and had the opportunity to work with Eric Kupper, remixer for Whitney Houston, Cher, Shakira, Alicia Keyes, Lenny Kravitz, Yoko, Ono, Donna Summer, Curtis Mayfield, and other artists. She has graced audiences with her vocals while performing at several venues in New York City including The Jazz Center of New York, Nells, Jewel Box, and Café Gianluca. She has gained attention from the TV industry and some of the music is fit for the film score genre as well. Currently, with tons of radio play and music radio interviews, she has fans locally and abroad with music heard in over 40 countries and 35,000 listeners.

Today I’m talking with Debbie Boone. Did you know that most veterinarians made that job decision when they were kids? And they followed through! Not very typical, seeing as those of us who wanted to be astronauts may not have actually pursued that path. But the thing about any career path is that there are revenue creating behaviors that you and no one else can do. You’ve got to attend to those puppies, teeth, knees, cuticles, or hair. But everything else? It can be delegated. Listen to Debbie talk about how important it is for you to do those things, focus on your brand, and make sure that those you delegate to are true to your brand.

Sandi Armstrong visits the Gateway to discuss Tom Waits, the album 'Blue Valentine" and the song on the album that she calls her own: "Christmas Card from a Hooker in Minneapolis". Sandi explains why she loves his music and how she has shared this love with her children. Howard complains about Tom's genius, griping that Tom sounds too much Louis Armstrong and that Tom's world is too mannered and caricatured. Sandi patiently listens and then corrects him. They both agree, however, that Tom Waits is a unique and talented artist: a singer-songwriter who creates small stories about small people and then links them into beautiful album-long operas about outsiders. Along the way they talk about improv, negotiating difficult house party DJ situations, and why Debbie Boone's eternally saccharine "You Light Up My Life" is important to both of them. *****Spotify Playlist of songs referenced or played on the episode: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/7LaYK68Fki7ERkzw8eKqnk?si=uiRZMIvzSkKN2JkD62MxIQ ******Check us out on Facebook: www.facebook.com/Gatewaymusicpodcast/ You can also access this podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and all other platforms that peddle podcasts.

Sitting up tall in Mountain Pose, tilt your head side to side. (PAUSE) Next, turn your head side to side like you are saying no. (PAUSE)And now tilt your head up and down as if you're saying yes. (PAUSE) Next, roll your shoulder forward five times. (PAUSE). Roll them backwards five times. (PAUSE) And now, interlace your fingers, roll your hands forward, one at a time, holding on to the interlace. (PAUSE)Release your fingers and  now stack the opposite thumb and fingers on top as you interlace your fingers again. This is going to feel uncomfortable because this is not the way you're used to interlacing your fingers. Roll your hands backward, one at a time. (PAUSE)

We had been begging our parents for a dog to no avail. But when we saw this pup sitting quietly in the tall weeds on the corner of the road by a fence, looking lost and as if she was waiting for someone, we started really pleading. My mom, thinking it a safe bet said, ”If she is still here when we come back we will stop.” Three hours later, much to her chagrin, the pup was still there, waiting just for us! Mom stopped – a woman of her word – and we brought Sandy home, sitting in the back seat between two very excited children. We were in love immediately as she began to enthusiastically lick us and wag her entire body with joy of finding her “people”.For more information, go to https://dboone2managevets.com/about-debbie/ Debbie is a well-recognized expert on monthly paid veterinary wellness plans.

Welcome to The Shaun Tabatt Show! Today my special guests are Billy and Willow Sprague and we'll be discussing their album Songs in the Key of Awe. About The Album:A true family affair from start to finish, Songs in the Key of Awe features vocals by Sprague's daughter Willow, his son Wyatt on djiembe, photography by his wife Kellie and joyful encouragement from their young son Sawyer. Sprague also tapped the formidable talents of guitar virtuosos Phil Keaggy, Dave Beegle and Dan Dugmore along with respected Nashville producer Jim Frazier to create an unforgettable listening experience. While Songs in the Key of Awe is jam-packed with great songs, Sprague encourages listeners to experience the whole album from start to finish. "From the opening sound of a bird taking flight to the final notes of "Reflection in A," the songs, pace and spaces are intended to create room to 'breathe deep of His grace' as one song lyric puts it," he muses. "I pray this music helps amplify your awe of the Lord, His creation and redeeming touch on your own grace story." One thing so gratifying to Sprague about Songs is the Key of Awe is that the music was created "not primarily as an artist," as he puts it, "but as a worshipper and worship leader of a local community of faith, doing life together. Another community of faith through Kickstarter, helped make it happen. To me that's beautiful."

I dedicate this year's year-end countdown to a guy I wanted to be in my childhood.  The voice that made me lay on the floor by my radio in Kentucky with a tape recorder.  I used to write down all the top 5 songs and keep them in a tablet.  He only made me mad when Debbie Boone's “You Light up my Life” was number 1 forever, but I grew to love “Bette Davis Eyes” and he introduced me to the music of Daryl Hall and John Oates.  Rest In Peace finally, Casey Kasem.   See you all in 2015.     Get interactive withthe night club musical Facebook page is available at https://www.facebook.com/nightclubmusical Stay up to date with the latest vocal trance tunes when or prior to their release.
