In this episode of Nine Lives with Dr. Kat, Dr. Kathryn Primm interviews Dr. Allison Kendall about Feline Interstitial Cystitis (FIC), a chronic and often misunderstood bladder condition in cats. Dr. Kendall explains how FIC differs from bacterial infections, emphasizing that stress is a major trigger rather than infection. They discuss common risk factors, including environmental stressors, multi-cat households, and anxious personalities. Dr. Kendall also shares the latest treatment approaches, focusing on stress reduction, dietary management, and environmental enrichment. A key highlight of the episode is Dr. Kendall's groundbreaking research on using low-dose radiation therapy to treat FIC. She explains how this novel approach reduces bladder inflammation and improves symptoms, with promising early results. Listeners gain valuable insights into feline urinary health, cutting-edge research, and actionable tips to improve their cats' well-being. EPISODE NOTES: New Hope for Pee Problems!

Today's episode is the second of our two recent live recordings of PPF, this one in front of an audience at the Bath Curious Minds Festival. David talks to historian Robert Saunders about the life of Winston Churchill and all its twists and turns of fortune: from disgrace in WWI, economic disaster in the 1920s, wilderness in the 1930s, through to redemption in 1945 and rejection by the voters in the same year. How to make sense of it all? Is there a thread that connects the ups and downs? Has there ever – anywhere – been another political life like it? Out now on PPF+: David discusses the influence of Marinetti's Futurist Manifesto (1909) – from cars to cod liver oil, from fascism to techno-optimism, from the madness of pre-WWI Europe to the craziness of Silicon Valley today.

Former WWE star Saraya steps into the ring with Adam and Dr. Drew to talk about her new book, Hell in Heels: Clawing My Way Through Nine Lives—a autobiographical account of her journey through the highs and lows of professional wrestling, personal battles, and public scrutiny. She opens up about breaking into the industry as an outsider, the struggles of being a female wrestler in a male-dominated world, and how a deeply personal scandal affected her career. The conversation dives into cancel culture, social media mobs, and the ever-blurring line between privacy and public judgment—from leaked tapes to career-defining controversies.

In 1976, a television crew filming an episode of the show “The Six Million Dollar Man” descended on a rundown funhouse in Long Beach, California. While filming, they accidentally broke the arm off a wax dummy. Except...it wasn't a wax dummy. It was a real body. The body of a notorious train robber from the early 1900s, named Elmer McCurdy. Check out the Atlas entry for Elmer McCurdy's grave.  For more information on Elmer, we recommend Mark Svenvold's book “Elmer McCurdy: The Misadventures in Life and Afterlife of an American Outlaw.”
