This week, Susy kicks things off with a rant about a major change in Google's search algorithm. Due to new AI involvement , the podcast's 462 previous episodes are no longer easily searchable, as the new system requires full transcripts to mine data. Susy explains her new process for posting transcripts and asks listeners who can't find an old episode to private message her directly for a link.The hosts also field a listener question about the Penelo comb brush. They describe it as a "hybrid brush" with cone-shaped tines and share their favorite ways to use it, such as for detangling and helping to shed double-coated dogs during drying.Next, Susy and Bbird dive into the November 2025 issue of Groomer to Groomer magazine. Highlights include: A discussion (sparked by the October cat issue ) on the benefits of having owners assist during cat grooming. Reviewing an article on "Pet Owners an Underutilized Resource" , leading to a debate on the pros and cons of owners brushing at home. Their pick for the best article: "The Theory Behind the Fluff" by Dylan Gonzalez, which details Asian Fusion styling. Other favorites: an article on exercises at the grooming table , the "flippy dryer" pet peeve article by Jennifer Bishop Jenkins , and Daryl Connor's piece on dryer maintenance. A look at the All American competition winners , including the Day of the Dead-themed People's Choice winner and explanations of the "Compassionate Groomer" and "Clipper Challenge" categories. Finally, the episode provides an in-depth breakdown of Results Rinse , a product Barbara helped Show Season develop. Barbara explains it is an acidifier with detangling ability designed for use when traditional conditioning is too heavy. They cover its many uses:Restoring springiness to coats (like Bichons) without adding weight. Clarifying the coat and removing product buildup or smoke odors. Controlling odor by lowering the skin's pH. Speeding up drying time. Locking in creative color by closing the hair cuticle.They also share application tips, including using it in a recirculating system or as a pour-through rinse , and Suzy's favorite "magic bullet" combo: mixing it with Best Shot The Max.
Ghislaine Maxwell wasn't just Jeffrey Epstein's accomplice — she was his “groomer-in-chief,” the woman who made his operation function. According to federal prosecutors and multiple survivor testimonies, Maxwell lured young girls into Epstein's world under the guise of mentorship, employment, or social opportunity, only to gradually normalize sexual contact and hand them over to Epstein for abuse. Survivors described how she used charm, wealth, and a false sense of safety to break down boundaries — taking them shopping, inviting them to parties, or offering money before introducing “massages” that became assaults. She was the bridge between Epstein's respectability and depravity, leveraging her elite background to make the entire system seem legitimate.Her 2021 conviction and 20-year federal sentence confirmed that Maxwell wasn't a bystander — she was an active architect. The evidence revealed she coached girls on how to please Epstein, managed his schedule of victims, and participated in the abuse herself. Prosecutors called her the “partner in crime” who ensured Epstein's predation never slowed. Her insistence that she was merely a scapegoat collapsed under the weight of survivor testimony and documented grooming patterns spanning years. The judge called her actions “heinous and predatory,” and her conviction cemented her legacy as the key facilitator of one of the most systematic sex-trafficking operations in modern American history.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

On this episode of No Filter, Kate Langbroek speaks with Sarah Kopp, a survivor, advocate, and the founder of Step In For Kids. Sarah’s story is heartbreaking, complex, and ultimately inspiring. As a teenager, Sarah was groomed by her teacher. That relationship would go on to become even more complicated when she married him. Years later, she found the courage to report him to police and confront her past, taking control of her story in a way that took extraordinary bravery. Today, Sarah is dedicated to protecting children and supporting survivors through her work with Step In For Kids, transforming her painful experiences into a force for change. In this conversation, Sarah shares her journey with honesty, courage, and compassion. She talks about surviving trauma, reclaiming her voice, and the work she’s doing to make the world a safer place for children. Step In For Kids was founded by survivor and educator Sarah Kopp to protect children from grooming and sexual abuse. For more information go here.

The conversation with Jo Awad unveils the intricate world of pet grooming, with a particular emphasis on the profound impact of pricing strategies and customer relationships within the industry. Jo, an accomplished pet groomer who transitioned from a career in medical support, shares her journey and the challenges faced as she navigated the complexities of establishing her own business, Short Bark and Sides. The dialogue explores the crucial importance of groomers effectively communicating the value of their services to clients, thereby justifying price increases that reflect the quality and care provided. Furthermore, Jo emphasises the importance of cultivating a supportive community among groomers, which not only fosters professional growth but also alleviates the burdens of isolation and anxiety often associated with running a small business. Ultimately, this episode serves as a testament to the transformative power of mindset and community in achieving success in the pet grooming sector.Takeaways: In this episode, we delve into the transformative journey of Joe, a pet groomer, illustrating her transition from a medical career to dog grooming, driven by a profound desire to work with animals.

We explore the psychological barriers that pet groomers may face when it comes to pricing their services, and how overcoming these fears can lead to increased profitability and improved client relationships. Joe reflects on her evolution as a groomer and business owner, noting how her mindset has shifted from people-pleasing to prioritising the needs of her business and the well-being of her canine clients.

Brad Zerbo and Zak “RedPill78” Paine return for another wild ride through the week's cultural and geopolitical chaos, serving up equal parts fire, fun, and unfiltered reality checks. Kicking off with the media's financial fear porn over Trump's tariffs, the duo dismantles the narrative around 401k freakouts, explain why temporary market dips are strategic, not catastrophic, and blast the short-sightedness of panicked influencers playing into regime psyops. They also go deep on the societal rot surfacing in schools, discussing the disturbing rise in predatory teacher cases, the collapse of moral standards in public education, and the funding incentives that may be enabling abuse. From the UN's third-world equalization agenda to U.S. tax dollars funding gender surgeries abroad, Brad and Zak call out the corrupt system that's abandoned the American people, while forcing them to pay the tab. Plus, a hilarious Norm Macdonald tribute, rants about Gematria rabbit holes, gas tax insanity, and why the Great American Restoration is more than a movement...it's a revival. Raw, real, and rolling deep in the fourth turning, this is Altered State at full throttle.

It's kind of male dominated, too,” says Taylor Barconey of Smart Bitch Dog Training in New Orleans. “On our profile on Instagram we have Black Lives Matter, it's been there for a year now.

Hal Shurtleff, host of the Camp Constitution Report, interviews Elena Barbera, producer of the documentary "American Groomer." From her website:American Groomer is a documentary revealing the disturbing truth about sexualization of children in American schools. The average citizen is totally unaware of the societal, physical, emotional, and behavioral dangers of this appalling, astonishing fetish. Kids are being introduced to kink, taught incomplete science behind STDs, and are being encouraged to make dangerous choices. And in the majority of states, it's perfectly legal to show your kids the filthiest porn available in school. Yes, really. Please join our mailing list below for behind-the-scenes updates on filming, release dates, and more.Produced by Elena Barbera (of SonnyFaz and Elena The Based Mother on YouTube and Rumble).https://americangroomerfilm.com/Camp Constitution is a New Hampshire based charitable trust. We run a week-long family camp, man information tables at various venues, have a book publishing arm, and post videos from our camp and others that we think are of importance.
