Episode 80 – The Business of Behaviour In this episode, I chat to Jo and Vicky from Canine Business Academy, (guys, I had a blooper when I introduced Jo & Vicky's business – It is Canine BUSINESS Academy, not Canine Behaviour Academy – sorry, my bad…), a company based in the UK, dedicated to helping Pet Behaviour Professionals create successful and profitable businesses. We talk about the stigma around actually earning money as Behaviour Professionals, and how this is the only way we can actually serve our clients and patients. I share about the struggles I had to overcome when I first opened my Veterinary Clinic, as business skills are definitely not something we were taught when I was at Vet School! We also delve into comparison-itis, niche-ing and the importance of working with business coaches to help and support Pet Behaviour Entrepreneurs on their journeys. If you have your own Pet Care Business, are thinking of taking the plunge and opening your own business, or simply want to listen to a hugely interesting and inspiring conversation, then this is the episode for you !

The Idiots have talked about what it's like when you're an established vet, what it's like going through vet school, and what it's like in internships, residencies, and clinicals, but that murky inbetween has not been breached. That's where Dr. Maddy Golichowski (or as Kent says "Gahlowzzskckksheeee") comes in. Dr. Maddy is well into her second year as a practicing vet, which allows her the hindsight of a first year without the distance in time obscuring her view. We talk pros, cons, and difficulties with being green in the field. Listen up, this rookie is going to do great things, and The Idiots were happy to be along for the ride.

In a season of return guests, another makes a come back. Amber Johnson, Idiot Brain Witch extraordinaire, touches on mental health again, and steps you can do to help keep mental health in check. Be it self care, calming techniques, or just being kind to yourself in general, you matter, and vets have incredibly stressful jobs. Yours might be, too, if your career isn't in the veterinary medicine world. Maybe you're unemployed or a stay at home parent. Mental health, self care, and calming techniques aren't limited to stressful jobs. It's an episode that can speak to anyone. Give a listen and be kind to your mind. If you have more questions for Amber, reach out to either of the Idiots and they can put you in contact. If we get enough questions about mental health in general, we may compile them into another episode with Amber.

Who's ready to learn about lab animal?! Join Kendra (RVT, VTS-EVN) as she chats with ALAVTN executive director Stephen Nino Cital (RVT, VTS-LAM) about their application process. Even if lab animal medicine isn't your jam, don't miss out on this one. From their more extensive scope of practice to, well, the money, there is so much to hear about lab animal. Not only will you get lots of tips and tricks along the way, there are plenty of laughs to go around.
Have you ever wanted to be the workhorse of a veterinary hospital? Do all the work for the veterinarians but get none of the credit and a fraction of the pay? Do you want to get scratched and bit by patients routinely? If this sounds amazing to you, then listen to this episode of the path it takes to become a veterinary technician. Jokes aside, they are the lifeblood of any hospital, and a vital piece to the wellbeing of all pets. Our new favorite guest, the Vet Tech Idiot Beth, discusses the way to get there. Apologies, this episode had some technical difficulties resulting in a second episode in a row with no video and some of Beth's audio was lost, but only in small random spots. The meat and potatoes of the episode is there. Anyway, we're going to blame Kent. Beth is a vet tech. Literature nerd. Music appreciator. Terrible dancer. Her credentials are Beth Laffoon, MS, RVT. She gave "How Stella Got Her Groove Back" a 3.5/5. "One of the best parts about being a vet tech in academia is getting to serve as a mentor to current, former, and prospective students. Any listeners out there who are thinking about becoming veterinary technicians- feel free to reach out with questions! I'm happy to give insight on the vet tech life or provide info about our residential and online vet tech programs that are accessible from all over the world.

The Idiots recognize that it is tough to be a woman in the world, and it can be even more for one in the veterinary world, so they brought back two of their favorite women doctors, Dr. Erin and Dr. Laura, for a chat about what it's like to be the fairer sex. The gang discuss sexism, both obvious and subversive, harrassment, and discuss the surprising reality that while the vet world is majority female, some of the worst attitudes towards women comes from other women.

If a dog's nose is dry, is it sick? Do cats really steal baby's breath? Listen in for these and other myths your favorite Idiots discuss. The boys talk about why these myths exist, where they came from, and if there is any validity to them. That's it. That's the show description. Also, if you really like this episode, reach out to the Idiots either at their individual socials or at vetmedforidiotsbyidiots@gmail.com and ask about some of your own myths that you have heard about pets over the years.
Kendra, RVT, VTS (EVN), chats with Scott about his journey from RVT to (almost) DVM. Tune in to hear about his journey through veterinary medicine and his decision to go to vet school. How is vet school for someone who has been an RVT for a decade? Are we going to have an inside man to advocate for credentialed veterinary technicians? Tune in for answers to these questions and so much more!
Welcome back! Season 3 is finally here! We should all be excited! The boys welcome their first quasi-celebrity, Dr. Dean Scott, vet extraordinaire. It addition to being a vet (in both senses, spending 5 years in the US Army Veterinary Corps), he is a multi-genre published author. He is currently working on the third of the "Dragon Vet" Series, with the second, "The Dragon Vet's Apprentice" released in October of 2023. He does not stop at fantasy, though. He has covered just about every genre and style there is. Come sit in on this wonderful afternoon with the equally wonderful Dean. There is another Dean Scott who is an author, but ours is a veterinarian, too. And awesome. And on this show. Was the other Dean Scott on here? Nope. Dr. Dean Scott is way better.

As Season 3 is just a few days away, the Idiots present to you, completely uncut, unedited, unanythinged, many the minis (see what I did there?). This is an absolute rambling, barely coherent, but a peek behind the scenes of how the minis were thrown together. There are moments of random BSing, periods of no talking for pee breaks (both for dogs and Idiots), and other stuff this Idiot does not remember talking about. Enjoy!

Surprise episode drop!!! Special Preseason to Season 3 Ep! The Idiots are back with your favorite large animal Idiot Vet, Dr. Erin Masur, and they're talking bird flu. There is so much misinformation, fear, and general confusion right now, and Dr. Erin is setting things straight. Cold hard facts and reality of what is going on, how it will impact prices of eggs, milk, and anything that contains either, and why burying this information is, at best irresponsible, and at worst, critically dangerous. This is an episode you will not want to miss. "I just saw possibly the stupidest piece of misinformation about h5n1 I've ever seen. Someone was like “no flock should be destroyed before they get a chance to build natural immunity to this virus”. It's a 97.5% mortality rate and there is no such thing as immunity or even cross immunity due to viral reassortment. They get it, 24 hours later they're dead.

Mini...kinda. We screwed up. We discussed our favorite hockey players. We're Idiots, but we're also sports nerds, especially when it comes to hockey. It's long, but sorta entertaining in the way we are usually sorta entertaining. But it's still a mini in the sense it's shorter than MOST of our normal episodes.
Mini again, this time, the grossest things Kent has seen in the workforce. Rachel, come get your Idiot!
We have had people ask to get to know The Idiots better. We are using minis to try to let people know a little more about us. This one is about our favorite movies. It goes without saying that our favorite movies we say are right after the last Angela Bassett movie. However many movies she has done, our number 1s start after that last movie of hers.

Howdy young Idiots! If last week's episode didn't sell you on the easy and gravy career path of a veterinarian with exciting tales of clinicals, this one will really grab you when we talk about resident work with the Resident Doctor Idiots, Dr Rigo and Dr Louie. They discuss the world of internships and residencies, the difference between private practice vs acadamia from a resident standpoint, how to make a bionic frog (we can rebuild him, we can make his stronger, faster, ribbitier), and other fascinating things. Plus, Dr. Kent makes fun of other people than Cory.
BONUS EPISODE! SURPRISE! In a VMFIBI first, the Dr. Idiot ventures on his own with Dr. Erin, better known as the Large Animal Idiot, or by the end of this bonus episode, Food and Bird Idiot. They continue the conversation from the Vet School Expectations, with a few beers, margaritas, and arts and crafts. Join them for a fun conversation, hear about more horror stories, but, see the light at the end of the table. Yes, it's tough, but it's also worth it. And remember, young veterinary professionals, advocate for yourself. Your hard earned degree gives you more power than you'll realize at times.
The Idiot Army has asked, and the Idiots have sorta answered. Vet school life, what to expect. The good, the bad, and the clinical. This motley group of Dr Idiots join The Original Idiots in giving picture of vet school and clinical year as realistic as possible. It's hard, it's stressful, it's exhausting, and it's worth it.
