Send us Fan MailWelcome to this episode of the Sexier than a Squirrel podcast, the podcast that brings you real-life dog training results, and sometimes human training ones too!This week, Lauren is joined by the brilliant Sam to answer a listener question that so many owners of worried dogs will recognise: what do you do when the very confidence-building games designed to help your dog seem to scare them in the first place?Whether it's a cardboard box, a crinkly bottle, a piece of paper on the floor, or simply something unfamiliar appearing in the environment, some dogs find the world a much bigger and scarier place than others. In this episode, Lauren and Sam explore why confidence building isn't about following a game exactly as it's demonstrated, but about finding the right starting point for the dog in front of you.Together, they discuss how to break optimism games down into tiny, achievable steps. For some dogs, that might mean playing Cardboard Chaos. For others, it might simply mean being comfortable in the same room as a cardboard box. You'll hear why progress often comes from looking for the smallest possible win and building from there, rather than pushing for the finished picture too quickly.Lauren and Sam also chat about the role of movement, choice, and pressure release when working with nervous dogs. They explore why giving a dog the option to leave can actually help them become braver, how owner pressure can unintentionally make confidence struggles harder, and why keeping training light, playful, and enjoyable often creates the biggest breakthroughs.The conversation also highlights the importance of reinforcement. From food motivation and toy play to everyday opportunities for earning rewards, you'll hear why "trainability is susceptibility to reinforcement" and how building a stronger reinforcement history can transform what is possible for a worried dog. Lauren shares examples from her own dogs, while Sam talks about helping a noise-sensitive dog learn that sounds and novelty can predict fun rather than worry.Most importantly, this episode is a reminder that there is no single blueprint for confidence building. The best training plan is always the one that works for the dog standing in front of you.If you're living with a nervous, cautious, or pessimistic dog, this episode is packed with practical ideas, encouragement, and simple next steps to help you build confidence one small win at a time.Looking for your dog's starting point?

Millions of adults across the UK, have not told their families what they want to happen to their money and property when they die. STEP, the Society for Trust and Estate Planners, reported this week on a survey which found 8 out of 10 adults had kept their loved ones in ignorance of their wishes. A third of them did not even have a will, leaving its distribution to complex legal rules rather than what the family itself might want. What should people do to avoid this?It is nearly forty years since the government sold off British Gas and encouraged us all to Tell Sid as part of Margaret Thatcher's 1986 dream of a share owning democracy. Today, the present Labour government wants people to invest more and it has appointed the Investment Association, alongside 19 of the UK's leading financial services firms, to lead an industry wide initiative to persuade people with savings to move at least some of them into shares. This "Invest for the Future" campaign has its own mascot - Savvy Squirrel. Could this lead to cultural change in the way we invest?And when might you have to pay tax on the interest you earn on savings? We'll explain all.Presenter: Paul Lewis Reporters: Dan Whitworth and Jo Krasner Researcher: Catherine Lund Editor: Jess Quayle News Editor: Justin Bones(First broadcast at 12noon, Saturday 16th May 2026)

Gold miners working in the Yukon regularly find ancient ground squirrel burrows throughout the permafrost, many containing fossilized feces. Researchers analyzing these well-preserved poop piles found they contain some of the oldest DNA ever recovered, dating from 30,000 to 700,000 years ago. Tucked inside were traces of a wide range of ancient animals, including woolly mammoths, grasshoppers, steppe bison, ancient horses, American cheetahs, as well as hundreds of plant species.PLUS:‘Super-good, ice-making microbes' may trigger snow and rain, or help freeze foodWe're a hotbed of mutations, and scientists are leveraging that for our healthGoing out on a limb.

Send us Fan MailWelcome to this episode of the Sexier than a Squirrel podcast, the podcast that brings you real-life dog training results, and sometimes human training ones too!This week, Lauren is joined by Dan to tackle something that sits behind every training session, every result, and every relationship with your dog: mindset. Because no amount of better treats, tools, or techniques will compensate for a cluttered, inconsistent, or reactive headspace. When your thinking is off, your timing slips, your patience shortens, and your dog feels it.In this episode, we dig into how a strong handler mindset is actually built, through small, repeatable actions. Dan shares why having one clear outcome for each session matters, how to break training down into simple chunks (think step-by-step, not all at once), and why trusting the process is what eventually gets you to that point where everything starts to click.Lauren and Dan also explore the impact of the people around you. From training partners to wider communities, who you spend time with shapes how you think, how you train, and what you expect of yourself. You'll hear honest insights into competition, comparison, and how to push for high performance without letting it become personal.We also go into the patterns that often hold people back - getting stuck on setbacks, replaying problems, or measuring yourself against highlight reels instead of real progress. You'll learn practical ways to shift your focus, track wins, and course-correct day by day so progress stays steady, even when things feel messy.If you want better dog training results, it starts with better thinking - and this episode will give you simple, practical tools you can use straight away.

Amy and Dale are back with another episode of Bless Your 'Hardt, and the Earnhardts might have a new family hobby. After their daughters discover a new obsession at golf camp, Amy starts plotting the family's future on the golf course while Dale isn't exactly ready to commit. Meanwhile, a post-Nashville sleep schedule has Dale running on fumes and relying on Amy for a very specific kind of support. The conversation bounces from the origins of "Denny Bros" to updates on the Dale Jr. Foundation Tahoe giveaway, upcoming family adventures at Hersheypark, and a debate that becomes far more passionate than anyone expected. Then there's the gift. Amy brings something to the studio that leaves Dale completely speechless and threatens to derail the entire episode. If you've ever wondered what it takes to make Dale Jr. genuinely uncomfortable, you're about to find out. Before wrapping the show, they tackle listener questions, grocery store etiquette, phone privacy, beach house construction chaos, and the traffic stop that continues to live rent-free in Amy's head. From family stories and random tangents to unexpected arguments and one unforgettable surprise, this episode has a little bit of everything.

Some guests make you want to train harder. Mike Wardian makes you want to live wider — and stop postponing the things that matter. Mike is 52, a runner, adventurer, and lifelong “yes” person. What stood out here wasn't a race résumé. It was how he builds a life where training fits inside the day, curiosity stays lit, and progress keeps happening even when time is tight. Mike's story has that real-life Forrest Gump energy — he ran 3,200 miles across America on Running Home. But the reason he belongs on this show is the off-camera stuff: burpees while the toast cooks, workouts folded into errands, and the willingness to be a beginner again — whether that's pickleball, chess, or whatever comes next. I'm grateful to Mike for the clarity and humanity he brought to this episode — ambition without bravado, urgency without panic. In this episode, we explore “Tomorrow isn't guaranteed” philosophy  Training inside real life constraints  The 4-part playbook: mindset  / planning / strength / integration Humility as a longevity skill  Starting > gear, hacks, perfection Links: Mike on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mikewardian/ Mike's website: www.mikewardian.com Mike's partners (mentioned):  Gear: Teva (https://teva.com) • Suunto (https://suunto.com) • Injinji (https://injinji.com) • T8 (https://t8.run) • Bakline (https://bakline.nyc) Fuel: Big Spoon Roasters (https://bigspoonroasters.com) • Squirrel's Nut Butter (https://squirrelsnutbutter.com) • South Block (https://southblock.com) Health: MedStar (https://medstarhealth.org)

Send us Fan MailWelcome to this episode of the Sexier than a Squirrel podcast, the podcast that brings you real-life dog training results, and sometimes human training ones too!This week, Lauren is joined by Karen for a conversation all about cooperative care: what it is, why it matters, and why so many dogs are simply enduring handling rather than truly feeling safe with it. Because a dog standing still at the groomers, freezing for the vet, or wriggling away from a harness isn't necessarily “fine” at all. Often, it's a dog with no real understanding, no predictability, and no way to say “give me a moment, I'm not comfortable with that.”In this episode, we explore what happens when handling becomes a conversation instead of a battle. From muzzle training and harness struggles to grooming, nail clipping, tick removal, blood draws, and end-of-life care, cooperative care gives dogs a way to understand what's happening and participate willingly, one small step at a time.Lauren and Karen talk through some of the practical foundation skills that make the biggest difference, including permission chin targets, bar holds, head-in-a-box games, and how proofing and gradual layering help dogs build genuine confidence around handling. You'll hear why reinforcement alone is not the same as consent, especially for food-motivated dogs who may still be deeply uncomfortable, and why giving dogs the ability to pause or opt out can completely change the emotional picture.We also dive into the real-life impact this training can have. From smoother blood draws at the vets and calmer grooming appointments to reducing stress around harnesses and medical procedures, cooperative care isn't just “nice training” - it's a practical skillset that supports your relationship with your dog through every stage of life.Along the way, Karen shares honest reflections about living with a dog who finds handling difficult, the signs she wishes she'd recognised earlier, and how changing the conversation has transformed everyday interactions that once felt stressful or confrontational.If you want handling to feel calmer, clearer, and more collaborative for both you and your dog, this episode is packed with practical ideas you can start using right away.Check out our Cooperative Care course (including the 10 Days to Happy Handling foundational learning) here.And register for our FREE Live Cooperative Care Masterclass on Friday 5th June (12 noon - 3pm BST) at absolutedogs.me/masterclassSupport the showIf you're loving the podcast, you'll love our NEW Sexier than a Squirrel Dog Training Challenge even more!

How do you actually hear God's voice in everyday life? And how do you know it's really Him speaking?In Part 2 of our conversation on hearing God's voice, Kimberly Roddy and Elizabeth Powell move from stories and theology into practical ways to grow in listening prayer, spiritual discernment, stillness, and intimacy with God.If you've ever struggled to quiet your mind, wondered if you're “doing prayer wrong,” or felt unsure whether God is speaking to you, this episode offers biblical encouragement, practical wisdom, and grace-filled guidance.In this episode, we discuss:✨ Practical ways to slow down and listen to God✨ Why stillness is difficult in today's world✨ How journaling helps discern God's voice✨ The difference between God's voice, emotions, and personal desires✨ Why discernment takes time and spiritual maturity✨ How God often speaks through peace, presence, Scripture, and relationship✨ Why prayer is more than talking — it's practicing the presence of GodThis conversation is honest, practical, deeply encouraging, and filled with wisdom for anyone longing to grow closer to Jesus and hear Him more clearly.Listen now and join the conversation. If this helps you, subscribe, share with a friend who's trying to discern God's voice, and leave a review so more people can find the show.

Send us Fan MailWelcome to this episode of the Sexier than a Squirrel podcast, the podcast that brings you real-life dog training results, and sometimes human training ones too!This week, we're continuing our new series of episodes exploring what concept training actually is and how it shows up in real life with your dog. We'll be taking concepts you may have heard us talk about before, breaking them down, and making them practical, relatable, and easy to spot in your own training sessions and day-to-day interactions with your dog. This time, Lauren is joined by the brilliant Linda to unpack one of the most important concepts in all of dog training: engagement.Engagement isn't just about your dog looking at you. It's about your dog choosing you. Choosing to check in. Choosing to stay connected. Choosing to come back mentally, even when the world is busy, exciting, distracting, or full of things that normally pull their attention away.Lauren and Linda explain why engagement underpins so many other skills - recall, agility, obedience, heelwork, calm walks, even day-to-day life in the house - and highlight the importance of the moments we often miss: the ones where your dog asks, “What next?”You'll hear why rewarding re-engagement changes everything and how building a strong reinforcement history helps your dog learn to seek connection rather than waiting to cued repeatedly. They also talk about fading food rewards sensibly, why you don't need to carry treats forever, and how value, timing, and consistency shape habits over time.Play gets a huge spotlight too, because engagement should feel good for both ends of the lead. Lauren and Linda discuss using toys, movement, celebration, and genuine interaction to build motivation and excitement in training - while also recognising that different dogs enjoy different styles of reinforcement.Lauren and Linda also consider the balance between engagement and appropriate disengagement. Because the goal isn't a dog who pesters you endlessly for work - it's a dog who understands when the game is on, when the game is finished, and how to switch between focus and relaxation successfully.Ready to grow a dog who chooses you more often?Check out 10 Days to a Toy Motivated Dog here: ​​https://absolutedogs.me/toymotivateddogOr check out 10 Days to a Food Motivated Dog here: https://absolutedogs.me/foodmotivateddogOr why not grab the £1 Games Club trial and get both courses, plus all our other 10 Days courses, included!https://absolutedogs.me/7daytrialSupport the showIf you're loving the podcast, you'll love our NEW Sexier than a Squirrel Dog Training Challenge even more!

Because while spot-ons, tablets, and collars are often seen as the “normal” route, more and more dog owners are starting to ask: what are these products actually doing to our dogs, our homes, and the environment around us?In this episode, we talk through the pros, cons, and wider impact of common flea and tick treatments, including why many products only work once a tick or flea bites, and what that means when we're talking about tick-borne diseases like Lyme disease and babesiosis. We also explore some of the side effects owners report seeing, from nausea and digestive upset to neurological wobbliness, and why dosage can become especially tricky for very small dogs.Lauren and Michelle also talk through a different approach: prevention through consistency, daily habits, and supporting the dog as a whole. You'll hear why they choose natural ingredients, how gut health plays a surprisingly important role in resilience, and why they prefer testing before treating wherever possible. From worm counts to stool testing, this episode challenges the idea of broad-brush “just in case” treatments and looks at the growing issue of resistance over time.We also get practical. You'll learn how to check your dog properly for fleas and ticks, where ticks commonly hide, how to spot flea dirt with a comb, and easy ways to feed preventative powders consistently, including a simple kefir ice cube hack your dog will probably love.Along the way, there's a wider conversation too, about waterways, bees, environmental impact, and why one spot-on treatment on a large dog can reportedly kill up to 25 million bees. It's a huge topic, and whether you're already using a natural approach or just starting to question the status quo, this episode will give you plenty to think about.If you've ever wondered whether there's another way to approach flea, tick, and worm prevention, this episode is for you.Want to explore A-OK9's Bug-K9 range?

Thank you for listening today, friends! We've got a fun episode with Heidi Garner today, in which we'll learn what it's like to create artwork and merchandise for races, run a small business while navigating family schedules, and plan out an award-winning Javelina Jundred costume. Heidi also shares some of her hard-earned wisdom with us, including the relevance of squirrels on cocaine, the evolution of her creative process, and why it's important to train in the dark. Heidi's stories remind us that sometimes, the most extraordinary moments happen when the world goes quiet and we venture into the dark.Heidi is an incredible artist, accomplished runners in ultras and on roads, and volunteer in the community. She isn't just an ultrarunner: she's an artist, mother, and passionate storyteller who believes that the little moments shared on the trail are what make races so special. She lives with her husband and children near the Canyons and Western States courses.The long quote Heidi provides comes from Jenny Lawson's book How To Be Okay When Nothing Is Okay.

On this episode, I sit down with ultrarunning legend Ann Trason for a conversation spanning the roots of the sport to where it stands today.  Ann shares what it was like growing up before Title IX, competing alongside the boys in school, discovering ultrarunning through her first ultra, and the resilience it took to overcome DNF's in her first two attempts at Western States before becoming one of the greatest athletes the sport has ever seen, including 14 wins at States.We also dive into her historic career, the evolution of ultrarunning over the decades, and her perspective on the modern era of the sport.  Enjoy!Mount to Coast | For runners who transcend distance.Squirrel's Nut Butter: Natural Anti-Chafe & Skin Restoring SalvesHome | Wandering Runner

Send us Fan MailWelcome to this episode of the Sexier than a Squirrel podcast, the podcast that brings you real-life dog training results, and sometimes human training ones too!This week, Sam is back to tackle a challenge so many dog owners face: car chaos. That moment the keys jingle or the engine starts and suddenly your dog is whining, pacing, panting, or barking out of the window. For some dogs it's over-excitement, for others it's stress or even nausea, but either way, it can make every journey feel like hard work.So what's really going on? For so many dogs, the car is loaded with meaning. Walks, vet visits, new places… It all builds anticipation fast. And that anticipation can tip into over-arousal or stress before you've even left the drive.Listen in as Lauren and Sam share practical strategies to help you change that picture. From creating “non-event” car journeys that lead to nothing, to simply hanging out in a parked vehicle, you'll learn how to remove the hype and help your dog switch off. They also explore why crate training can be a game-changer for calm travel, creating safety, structure, and reducing visual triggers that often keep dogs on edge.As the conversation continues, Lauren and Sam get into the detail of reinforcement too, because if calmness in the car is your current struggle, that's where your training focus needs to be. From hand feeding and using daily food to build positive associations, to scatter feeding and long-lasting chews, this is all about changing how your dog feels about the car.If your dog struggles with car travel, this episode will give you a clear, practical plan you can start straight away.Ready to connect with a community of like-minded dog owners and feel supported in your training journey?

A squirrel darting across seven lanes of traffic nearly caused a 20-car pileup, and it completely changed the way I think about focus, commitment, and crossing the road toward your goals. In this episode, I break down what that fearless little animal can teach us about staying locked in when life throws distractions from every direction. If you have ever found yourself far from your goals and wondering why, this episode is going to hit home. Key Takeaways Cross traffic in life shows up as distraction, and the closer you get to your goals, the more distractions will come to test your commitment. Hesitation is what gets you hit. Pausing, looking left, looking right, and second-guessing yourself is what derails your progress, not the obstacles themselves. You have to know why you are crossing the road. If your goal does not truly mean something to you or someone you love, you will find every excuse to stop. The bigger the goal, the more lanes of traffic you will have to cross. Acknowledging the major hurdles ahead lets you prepare instead of being blindsided. It is okay to pivot as long as it is because your passions evolved, not because the goal got hard. Quitting and pivoting are two very different things. Action Steps Write down the goals you set at the beginning of this year and honestly ask yourself if they still mean the same thing to you. Reconnect with your why or give yourself permission to adjust course. Identify the major lanes of traffic standing between you and your goal right now. Name the real obstacles, financial, relational, logistical, so you can prepare to move through them with intention. The next time a distraction pulls at your attention, pause and ask yourself one question: does this move me toward where I said I was going? If the answer is no, keep sprinting. Notable Quote The distractions are there to see how bad you want it. They are there to see if you are truly committed to what you said you were committed to.

CannCon and Alpha Warrior go head to head for nearly the entire show in one of the most heated SITREPs yet. The night opens with a rolling debate on whether Islam is purely a religion or a political ideology, sparked by Sammy the Squirrel's Substack and the Epic City development in Texas. Alpha argues for preemption and forced assimilation. CannCon stays planted on the constitution, demanding actual examples of laws being passed before force is used. The conversation rolls into foreign flags flying on US soil, with CannCon proposing twenty year sentences for Americans flying another nation's flag, and Alpha reminding him he claimed to be a free speech absolutist three hours earlier. Then the gloves come off on the Second Amendment. The guys break down the DOJ's lawsuit against Denver over an ordinance that turns a Glock 17 into an "assault weapon," walk through the Bruen test, and unpack why the NFA classifying a suppressor as a firearm is like calling a wheel a car. Plus California's 11% ammo tax as a backdoor penalty. They close defending Kyle Seraphin against a Just The News hit piece, deployment war stories, and a civilization jihad document read aloud.

Send us Fan MailWelcome to this episode of the Sexier than a Squirrel podcast, the podcast that brings you real-life dog training results, and sometimes human training ones too!This week, Lauren is joined once again by canine physiotherapist and hydrotherapist Mel to tackle a topic that every dog owner thinks they've got covered: exercise. Because your dog's walk should be the best part of their day… not the moment an avoidable injury begins. From dogs launching out of the boot and sprinting cold, to high-speed chases, collisions, and endless ball throwing, many “normal” routines are actually putting dogs at risk.In this episode, we dig into what safe, effective exercise really looks like. Mel explains what the canine body actually needs, and why those first 10–15 minutes of on-lead walking can completely change the picture. Together, Lauren and Mel explore how simple management choices - like using pathways, long lines, and food scattering - can prevent that explosive first sprint and reduce injury risk before it even starts.They also talk through real-life scenarios, including multi-dog households and dogs returning to ‘normal' walks following an  injury. You'll hear how to safely reintroduce off-lead time, when play together is helpful (and when it's not), and how to step in before fun turns into a crash. This is all about understanding arousal, movement, and giving your dog the best chance to move well and stay sound.We also explore the hidden risks in everyday environments, from wet ground and deep sand to pebble beaches and even different types of astroturf. Plus, we cover how exercise should change across your dog's life, from older dogs with arthritic changes to fit, active sports dogs, and why nutrition needs to support increased training load.If you want to exercise your dog in a way that builds strength, protects their body, and supports long-term health, this episode is for you.Support the showIf you're loving the podcast, you'll love our NEW Sexier than a Squirrel Dog Training Challenge even more!

Send us Fan MailWelcome to this episode of the Sexier than a Squirrel podcast, the podcast that brings you real-life dog training results, and sometimes human training ones too!This week, Lauren is joined by the brilliant Linda to tackle a challenge so many dog owners know all too well: window barking. That moment your dog launches at the glass, noise levels skyrocket, and suddenly the whole house feels tense, chaotic, and on edge. It's frustrating, it's exhausting, and for many, it feels like a habit that's impossible to break.In this episode, we dig into what's really going on behind the barking. Because this isn't about a “naughty” dog - it's about a behaviour that's been well practised and, in many cases, accidentally reinforced. With the perfect vantage point and a constant stream of passers-by, your dog is essentially rehearsing the same high-arousal response again and again.Lauren and Linda walk through a real-life case study, sharing exactly how Linda turned things around for a dog who was making daily life stressful for the entire household. You'll hear how small, practical changes - like adjusting the environment to reduce visual triggers - and simple, positive training techniques can make a huge difference. From using window film to limit rehearsal, to transforming a familiar “uh-uh” into a powerful, reward-based attention cue, this is all about changing the picture, not battling the behaviour.We also explore why telling your dog off often backfires, and what to do instead. By focusing on rewarding the behaviours you do want - like choosing to move away from the window and settle calmly - you can build habits that stick, without conflict or frustration.If you're dealing with barking at windows, TVs, or anything that triggers that launch-and-lunge response, this episode will give you a clear, practical plan you can start straight away.Ready for solutions for every struggle - including barking?
