Throughout this membership drive we are talking about the animals we love and care for in our homes -- our pets. Today, Elias Weiss Friedman, aka @TheDogist on Instagram, author of This Dog Will Change Your Life (Ballantine, 2025) and host of a new YouTube talk show talks about the dogs he's met and why he thinks they make us better humans.
This week on Hysteria 51, we swirl a glass of weird with a splash of what-the-actual-hell.First up: A New Zealand company is now selling non-alcoholic “wine” for cats and dogs—finally, your pet can join you in judging reality TV with a glass of Pinot Meow. It's cute, it's confusing, and it raises more questions than answers. Conspiracy Bot is demanding a robot-friendly rosé.Then, we spiral into deep-space biology as a scientist claims that alien DNA is embedded in the human genome. That's right—there may be a little E.T. in all of us. (Which would explain some of your uncle's Facebook posts.)It's felines, fine wine (kind of), and fringe science in one deliciously derailed episode of audio absurdity.Listen now before your tabby opens a sommelier TikTok and your ancestry results list “Alpha Centauri.”Links & Resources
Cattitude - Cat podcast about cats as pets on Pet Life Radio (PetLifeRadio.com)
This week on Cattitude, Michelle Fern chats with writer and critic Rebecca van Laer about her debut memoir, Cat. Van Laer explores how our lives with cats reshape the wild we've tried to domesticate—what “tame,” “neuter,” and “indoors” say about nature and about us. She shares why she chose a life plus cats (not kids), and how “undomesticating” herself alongside her senior companions Toby and Gus reframed love, work, and family. From cats' mysteriously divine histories to millennial burnout in a content-marketing grind, maternal fault lines, and the radical permission in feline laziness and pleasure, Rebecca's reflections purr with humor and honesty—right down to Gus's opinion: “I don't want to be famous…I just want to go to the basement.”EPISODE NOTES: Toby, Gus & Me: Choosing a Life Plus Cats with Rebecca van LaerBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/cattitude-the-1-cat-podcast--6666768/support.

Episode 2760: Jackie Beck highlights the financial reality of pet ownership, reminding us that emergencies are inevitable and costly. She explains why planning ahead with pet insurance, a dedicated savings fund, or delaying ownership until debt is paid off can prevent heartbreaking choices and unnecessary stress. Her advice balances love for animals with financial responsibility, offering practical steps for anyone who wants to care for pets without jeopardizing their budget. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.jackiebeck.com/pets-and-debt-dont-mix/ Quotes to ponder: “If you have pets, you WILL have pet emergencies.” “Hope is not a plan.

Was Julie Wainwright a visionary CEO caught in impossible circumstances, or did she preside over one of the most spectacularly stupid business models in internet history? In this episode of History's Greatest Idiots, we explore the woman who sold dog food for one-third of what it cost, shipped it for free, spent $1.2 million on a Super Bowl ad, and somehow convinced Jeff Bezos this was a good idea.This is the story of Pets.com: the company that proved you could lose $300 million in under two years if you really applied yourself, and the sock puppet mascot that became more famous than the company it represented.What You'll Discover:How a Purdue graduate went from early career struggles to running multiple successful tech companiesWhy selling heavy pet supplies at massive discounts with free shipping is financial suicideThe massive marketing campaign that created an iconic sock puppetHow 14 dot-com companies spent an average of $2.2 million each for Super Bowl ads in January 2000Why customer acquisition costs became unsustainable when selling low-margin pet productsThe 268-day journey from $11 IPO to $0.19 liquidation (one of the shortest-lived public companies ever)How Julie's husband filed for divorce the day before she announced the shutdownThe brutal aftermath: being called "the biggest failure in Silicon Valley"Her incredible comeback with The RealReal (from pariah to billion-dollar IPO)Why we're repeating the exact same mistakes with AI companies right nowFrom Super Bowl Glory to Liquidation: Pets.com raised $82.5 million, had Amazon as a 54% investor, appeared in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, and became a cultural phenomenon. But behind the famous sock puppet was a company losing money on every single sale, spending $11.8 million on advertising while earning $619,000 in revenue, and operating on the bold strategy of "lose money on every transaction and make it up in volume."The Dot-Com Bubble Context: We explore how an entire generation of investors lost their minds, why "get large or get lost" became the mantra, and how $5-7 trillion in market value vanished when everyone realized that businesses actually need to make money. Plus: why Webvan, Boo.com, eToys, and Kozmo.com all failed for the exact same reasons.The AI Parallel That Should Terrify You: We're living through this again right now. AI companies raising billions on potential rather than profitability, the same "this time it's different" thinking, identical infrastructure challenges, and investors throwing money at anything with "AI" in the pitch deck. History doesn't repeat, but it rhymes like a sock puppet singing Chicago.Julie Wainwright's story proves that failure isn't fatal, being ahead of your time is often indistinguishable from being completely wrong, and sometimes the universe just needs you to burn $300 million to teach everyone a lesson they'll immediately forget.https://www.patreon.com/HistorysGreatestIdiotshttps://www.instagram.com/historysgreatestidiotshttps://buymeacoffee.com/historysgreatestidiotsArtist: Sarah Cheyhttps://www.fiverr.com/sarahcheyAnimation: Daniel Wilsonhttps://www.instagram.com/wilson_the_wilson/Music: Andrew Wilsonhttps://www.instagram.com/andrews_electric_sheep
In Episode 349 of The Canine Paradigm, we dive deep into a question that gets to the heart of dog ownership, what do most families actually need their dog to be trained to do? We explore the essential skills and behaviours that, if taught properly, make the difference between a happy, well-integrated companion and a dog that ends up rehomed or worse. From recall and loose-leash walking to house manners and neutrality, we outline the minimum viable behaviours that support a successful relationship between dogs and their people. We also venture into a future-facing discussion, will AI replace dog trainers? As artificial intelligence grows more sophisticated, there's speculation around whether it can guide pet owners well enough to put real trainers out of work. We weigh up the possibilities, challenges, and realities of automation in our industry. This one's both practical and philosophical, and we hope it sparks thought and discussion.

What if your biggest reinvention came after your biggest failure? In this episode, I sit down with Julie Wainwright, the founder of The RealReal, who proves that resilience and reinvention have no age limit. We talk about the realities of risk-taking, why timing matters, and how setbacks can set the stage for your next breakthrough. Julie also shares what it means to “rebirth” yourself in midlife, why resilience is more valuable than a safety net, and how women can expand their vision by daring to think bigger.

Sarah went gay line-dancing, which is like regular line-dancing, but awesome! And now she's hooked. We discuss the Lilith Fair documentary, how the festival compares to Woodstock 99, why women should run more stuff, and why we have a lot of concerts to go to now. We learn about three nuns who broke out of their retirement home and returned to their convent, and the Vatican is not pleased. Hear why Ed McMahon's Publisher's Clearinghouse winners are getting screwed, and now they're going broke despite being lottery winners. We discuss the viral Karen baseball incident, why old people need to can it, and why one of our friends has a crazy hot take about it. Plus, a lot of colleges are now allowing students to bring their pets into the dorms, and Sarah thinks it is a very bad idea.Brain Candy Podcast Presents: Susie & Sarah's SpOoOoOoOoktacular Spectacle, October 30, Oriental Theater, Denver, Colorado: Get your tickets!

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! What if your beloved cat or dog had something important to say — and you could actually hear them? Carrie Kenady claims she can. From a young age, Carrie felt she was different. She could sense things others couldn't — from subtle energies in the room to messages from loved ones who'd passed away. It wasn't long before she realized this wasn't just intuition… it was a psychic gift. Carrie's abilities extend beyond human spirits. She's known for her startling conversations with animals, often picking up on thoughts and feelings from living pets and even messages from those that have crossed the rainbow bridge. From comforting stories of reunions with lost pets to chilling encounters with the spirits of the departed, Carrie offers a fascinating glimpse into a world where pets and people both have something to say — even after death. In this episode of The Grave Talks, we explore Carrie's incredible experiences — including hearing from her late Aunt Linda, discovering the emotions of a dog named Rover, and understanding the bond that never breaks between pets and their humans. If you've ever wondered what your pet might be thinking… this episode just might give you the answer. This is Part Two of our conversation. #PetPsychic #AnimalMedium #PsychicStories #GhostPets #TalkingToAnimals #TrueGhostStory #ParanormalPodcast #SpiritCommunication #HauntedPets #LifeAfterDeath #ParanormalEncounters #MessagesFromBeyond #TalkingToSpirits Love real ghost stories?

What really happens when you stand or sit up straight? More than you think. Posture affects your body and your mind in surprising ways. This episode begins with the science-backed benefits of tuning in to your posture. Source: https://www.medicaldaily.com/pulse/why-you-should-stand-straight-benefits-good-posture-345598 What's most likely to kill you—and what can you actually do about it? That's the urgent and practical question we explore with Dr. Tom Frieden, former Director of the CDC under President Obama and now CEO of Resolve to Save Lives. Dr. Frieden shares the latest science on the biggest threats to your health and longevity, and the powerful steps you can take to dramatically improve your odds. He's also the author of The Formula for Better Health: How to Save Millions of Lives—Including Your Own (https://amzn.to/4gqvMSN). Why do we treat pets, stuffed animals, and even our cars as if they were human? Anthropomorphism—projecting human qualities onto non-human things—happens across every culture on earth. But why do we do it? Is there an upside? Can it cause harm? My guest Justin Gregg, senior research associate with the Dolphin Communication Project and adjunct professor at St. Francis Xavier University, unpacks the fascinating psychology behind this universal human trait. He's also the author of Humanish: What Talking to Your Cat or Naming Your Car Reveals About the Uniquely Human Need to Humanize (https://amzn.to/4miASSg). And finally—why are we so easy to scam? Almost everyone has been tricked or swindled at some point - even the smartest among us has fallen for a clever con. We'll look at why that is, and what it reveals about the way our minds work. https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/cutting-edge-leadership/201109/the-5-reasons-we-get-suckered-and-ripped-off PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS!!!

Reiki for Pets – Five Ways to Create a Peaceful ConnectionIn this episode, we explore how Reiki can deepen the bond between you and your beloved animal companions. Reiki for pets works in the same way it does for people—bringing relaxation, balance, and healing energy—while also honoring the unconditional love our pets share with us every day.Here are five simple ways to bring Reiki into your pet care routine:Healing Touch – When petting, grooming, or cuddling your animal, open yourself as a channel for Reiki and let your touch become a conduit for comfort, ease, and unconditional love.Reiki-Infused Food and Water – Hold your pet's bowls briefly and visualize filling their meals with Reiki light to support vitality and well-being from the inside out.Soothing Stress – In moments of anxiety—such as storms, fireworks, or changes in routine—offer calming Reiki energy to create a safe, peaceful environment.Support at the Vet – Send Reiki before and during veterinary visits to help ease fear and encourage calm cooperation, supporting both your pet and the care team.Shared Reiki Moments – Take time to sit quietly together, sharing Reiki energy for mutual healing, deepened connection, and a sense of peace.This practice not only benefits your pets but also nurtures your own sense of presence, intuition, and compassion.The 5 Minutes of Peace podcast is created by The Peace Room, Boise.
