La voz de Inés Eleuteria y la guitarra a Aitor Zorriqueta junto a Ander Alonso en la batería, Kike Mora al bajo y Mikel Núñez en los teclados, componen de Missisipi Queen and the Wet Dog. Nacieron en 2015 y tienen nuevo disco; se titula 'Phoenix' y se presenta el viernes que viene en Bilborock....

Sarah returned to her Real World house and wasn't prepared for how emotional it would make her, and now she's considering why the experience brought out so many feelings. We talk about "wet dog shake," what causes it, and why some mammals have that response to certain stimuli, while others, like cats and mice, don't. We learn about dozens of monkeys who escaped from a research lab, and debate whether we're on team monkeys or team science. Either way, those monkeys are clever and free. We discuss a man who uses a medical voice board to communicate and how he modified the device to make it more personal and reflective of his identity. We consider which accents we like in the world and which grate on our nerves, and why so many people hate the sound of their own voice. Sarah explains how chocolate exposed racism within the movie industry, and how things have improved since the 70s. Plus, we discuss the Sweet Bobby documentary where a woman is catfished by someone for a decade, and we debate how someone could allow that to happen, why it could happen to anyone, and why there wasn't much punishment for the person who tricked her.Listen to more podcasts like this: https://wavepodcastnetwork.comJoin our Candy Club, shop our merch, sign-up for our free newsletter, & more by visiting The Brain Candy Podcast website: https://www.thebraincandypodcast.comConnect with us on social media:BCP Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastSusie's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterSarah's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBCP on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodSponsors:Get an exclusive 20% off your first order at https://thrivecausemetics.com/BRAINCANDYhis episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.

In this episode, I'm thrilled to introduce Beth Porter, an incredibly talented artist and co-owner of Wet Dog Tile Company. Beth shares her journey from a fine arts background to becoming a trailblazer in custom tile artistry.   Wet Dog Tile Company is known for its unique, multi-textural tile designs that go beyond traditional forms, incorporating mixed media, organic shapes, and, often, personal touches that make each project one-of-a-kind. Wet Dog creates tiles that defy typical geometric shapes—think starfish-shaped tiles rather than standard square tiles. The designs range from ocean-inspired themes to custom pet portraits and are crafted using a mix of ceramic, glass mosaics, crushed glass, and pebbles to add texture and color.   Beth shares how the company name was inspired by her involvement in animal rescue and living in a coastal town. What started as a hobby has grown into a full-fledged business, creating tiles for spaces all over the country.   Wet Dog Tile Company is not just about tile; it's about creating deeply personal, artistic statements for any space. From custom pet portraits to unique textural designs, Beth's approach makes each project a labor of love. Whether you're a homeowner or an interior designer, Wet Dog Tile offers something extraordinary to bring your vision to life.   Connect with Wet Dog Tile Company: Website: WetDogTile.com Instagram: @wetdogtile Facebook: Wet Dog Tile Company   Podcast Website and Resources: Get more info about our year-long mentorship and coaching program: https://www.designedforthecreativemind.com/business-bakery   Text BESTIE to 855-784-8299 for business tips, encouragement, and all our DFCM updates.   SIMPLIFY YOUR MARKETING, SIMPLIFY YOUR LIFE.

Ever wondered why your dog's back-and-forth shaking is so effective at getting you soaked? Or how bugs, birds, and lizards can run across water—but we can't? Or how about why cockroaches are so darn good at navigating in the dark?Those are just a few of the day-to-day mysteries answered in the new book How to Walk on Water and Climb Up Walls: Animal Movement and the Robots of the Future, by Georgia Tech mathematician David Hu.The book answers questions you probably won't realize you even had, but they're questions with serious answers that span the worlds of physics, fluid mechanics, and biology. Throughout the book, Hu demonstrates the extraordinary value day-to-day curiosity brings to science.But, while he explores how science can reveal wonders of the mechanisms in our world, Hu writes how his work has been the target of politicians for so-called “wasteful” science spending. One of the studies under attack, an inquiry into the average length of urination across the animal kingdom, might have had a laughable premise, but eventually led to serious attention by urologists and researchers working on treatments, prostheses, and artificial organs.“The concept of waste is based on the notion of a limited gas tank and a single known destination,” Hu writes. “People expect scientists to save gas as they go from A to B. But the real power of science is to take us to destinations that we have never been to.”To stay updated on all things science, sign up for Science Friday's newsletters.

Let's get started with "Wet Dog"!SHOW TRANSCRIPT FOLLOWS:Stephanie [00:00:12]:Hello, everybody, and welcome to the makers of Minnesota Podcast, where we talked cool people doing cool things and there's nothing cooler than your pets, right? Everybody's crazy about their dogs and their cats. I was just on a trip for 10 days away from my dog, and I got home, and he has not stopped, like, being by my side ever since. I think I'm giving them a complex because I keep leaving. But I am here at Heather Johnson, and she's from the company Create it. She does sales and marketing for a product that specifically for pets called Wet Dog. Hello, Heather. Thanks for joining us.Heather Johnson [00:00:48]:Hello. Thank you for having me.Stephanie [00:00:50]:So what do you think it is about pets and dogs in particular that we are so obsessed and have to buy, like, all these fancy products for them.Heather Johnson [00:01:03]:well, I think it's 1st and foremost the unconditional love. Pets just brings so much joy to us, and we wanna give them everything we can because they're they're just so loving to us, and they really enhance our lives.Stephanie [00:01:17]:Don't you think too? Like, I don't know. Maybe it's just because I had a dog for 18 years that died, and then I rescued another dog. And this dog is fairly, I'm just gonna say needy. not in a bad way. He just really likes me and really wants to be with me all the time, and my other dog was a lot more independent. And I also think like COVID, we spent 2 years with our free animals. And in a lot of instances, they were our only people that we interacted with or not people, but they just gave us so much joy during a time. Many of us spent a lot more time outdoors with our pets. It just really feels like coming out of COVID, people's pets mean more to them than ever.Heather Johnson [00:02:00]:Yeah. Definitely. I know the you know, you have extra bonding time. You're sitting on the couch. You're watching TV with them. there was a lot more walks going on. just a lot more time to, kind of enrich their lives with our presence as well.Stephanie [00:02:18]:Can you tell me a little bit about formulation about wet dog products in particular and why, it's cool that they're made here. I love that that they're made in Minnesota. But what is it like? I I don't even know, like, some people don't even wash their dogs, right? They just either take them to a salon or once a year, they get thrown into the lake?Heather Johnson [00:02:42]:Yeah. well, our our pet product is super cool. well, because we have flower power in it. And that just simply is the essence of rescue remedy. So during the bath, people get anxious too because we're not used to bringing our pet to the bathroom. And so they kind of feed off of that. So it's relaxing for both the pet owner and for the pet.Stephanie [00:03:04]:And you've got a shampoo, a conditioner. And is there another type of spray too?Heather Johnson [00:03:09]:Yep. We have a detangling spray and it's, like, a skin conditioner as well. So it helps for dry itchy or flaky skin.Stephanie [00:03:17]:When you have pets, like, how often should you be bathing them?Heather Johnson [00:03:23]:well, that's gonna depend upon your pets. Sometimes you have a guy that loves to get outside and roll around in the dirt and mud and just kind of be adventurous. those pets are product is safe to use on them as much as you'd like. because it is all natural. we've taken out all of the parabens sulfates, peanut wheat, gluten, and dye. And, so again, it's safe for your pet to use every day. It has a very high quality of oatmeal protein, so it's excellent for their skin and their coat. and then you could just have a guy that's real, you know, wants to be a laptop. I think at your own discretion, if you notice, like, that wet dog smell, maybe you might want to consider a bath. and those little, you know, we call it a spa day and make it real special for them.Stephanie [00:04:11]:Oh, that's cute. I never thought about that giving the old Stanley a spa day, but I suppose why not? Exactly. Is there a competition? Is this a competitive market this product?Heather Johnson [00:04:24]:I would say that shampoo in general is kind of competitive. It's kinda hard to, you know, reinvent the wheel for shampooing, so to say, But what really makes us stand out is that our product is a 100% sourced in the United States. as you know, in the United States, we have very standards when it comes to, what goes into products that we use on our body or and or consume. So you're guaranteed that you're gonna have nothing but high quality ingredients, and you're going to be supporting, aStephanie [00:04:59]:family owned business in the United States and in Minnesota. So when you are going into your sales and marketing pitch, like, is it do you try to get this product on, like, you know, more boutique stores, or are you, like, trying to get it into the pet smarts of the world? And how challenging is it for a small business to compete with, you know, some of the bigger guys?Heather Johnson [00:05:23]:well, we're we're in the process of of doing a lot of marketing locally, we have partnered with, Jerry SUPERVALU. So we're working in local, family owned businesses at this time. but, yeah, it is a competitive market. And, you know, making yourself stand out is you know, something that you have to work on daily. You have to build trust with the consumer, and you have to back your you have to, you know, every day go out and, and give the best, the best to everybody. Or otherwise, you know, if you lose trust, you're not gonna make it very far.Stephanie [00:06:01]:Right. And is there other like product lines or extensions that you guys have explored? Or I love it that you're at Jerry super value. They do a really good job of supporting Minnesota makers. And, they're a great family business as well. But Can you, like, is it hard to get traction, or can you get traction with a couple of products and then expand the line, or is the goal really to just get this these three items in as many stores as possible?Heather Johnson [00:06:30]:you know what? We're always looking at growing our brand. we're always looking at, you know, what what do our pets need, you know, things evolve and, and we kind of we want to keep a pulse on the industry so that we can be competitive in the marketplace. So I would say we're always looking to grow. We're always looking to improve our And, you know, with that in mind, you know, we keep our eyes wide open in the industry. So we can, again, be competitive.Stephanie [00:07:00]:What's your biggest marketing challenge so far?Heather Johnson [00:07:04]:Oh, gosh. Our biggest marketing challenge so far I would say is, just really getting the word out, to all the people, not just in Minnesota, is growing our, our product brand throughout the United States. and by doing that, we have started working with, USA Made products. we're talking right now with the army and the air force reserves to be in their PX stores for American May products, as well as in the New York market. We're in the made in the USA store, which is pretty cool.Stephanie [00:07:40]:Yeah. That is cool. when you think about just how different it is like because you're not really marketing to dogs. You're marketing to the families of dogs. Is it women or men or who's your primary target?Heather Johnson [00:07:55]:Oh gosh. I think it's pretty equal between, men and women. it you would be surprised when we're at the state fair and that that civilian, that it's across the board. Anybody who loves their pet has a ton of questions for us. They wanna know about our product line, and they will spend 10 more dollars on their pet every single time if it's for the best interest of their pet.Stephanie [00:08:21]:Yeah. Probably more than they would spend on themselves in some cases.Heather Johnson [00:08:26]:Absolutely. I have definitely seen that.Stephanie [00:08:29]:Is the pet pavilion a sales opportunity for you, or do you use it as marketing or both?Heather Johnson [00:08:35]:I would say both. We've been, at the Minnesota State Bear sinceStephanie [00:08:40]:2012.Heather Johnson [00:08:43]:we see a lot of repeat people that will come in that have to show us pictures of their pet every year, where they've been with their pet every year. And so the connection with everybody in Minnesota is fantastic. we love getting out and shaking hands and, you know, meeting everybody and hearing their pet stories. And then, of course, we all take the opportunity to sell our product and get it in the hands of, pet parents everywhere so that they can go home and, again, do the spa day with their fur baby.Stephanie [00:09:13]:If people wanna try a wet dog right now besides Jerry's, what's the best way for them to get it?Heather Johnson [00:09:20]:they can go online wet dashdog.com, and they can order from us. What's super cool about that is that with every online order, we give 5% back to a dog rescue every month. this month, it's pause for pause. and like I said, so if you order directly from us, we do give back to at charities. And also, you can find a list of all of our, retail partners on our social media as well as on our website.Stephanie [00:09:51]:I love it. And what's your social media handle so people can follow you guys?Heather Johnson [00:09:55]:It is Wet Dog, w e t d o g.Stephanie [00:09:58]:Okay. Simple is that. Alright. How's that? Yeah.

In this episode my guest, Aaron Jagers III and I, will explore the hygiene practices of Europeans throughout history from an Afrocentric perspective. It is our goal to answer the question: What creates the wet dog smell in the European population when it rains, We highlight the ways in which their historic communal practices have contributed to the marginalization of non-European cultures and the promotion of Eurocentric beauty standards. Despite these challenges, we celebrate the resilience of people of color and their contributions to the development of modern hygiene and sanitation practices. So join us as we uncover the complex and often overlooked European history of hygiene, sanitation and beauty from an Afrocentric point of view. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/theafrocentricpodcast/message

Today, I'm so honored to have none other than Sophie Gamand on the show. Sophie is an animal advocate, artist, and award-winning photographer. You might know her from her stunning, powerful Pit Bull Flower Power series or her Wet Dog series. She does her work pro bono for non-profits, rescues, and shelters to communicate the idea of dogs having agency and she does it through photography.Sophie shares her experience about awakening to the world of rescue in Puerto Rico, her commitment to helping shelters and rescues, and how vital it is to use art for good. We discuss our shared deep connection to animals, how her journey got started, the stigma around adoption, and why certain breeds have come to reflect a person's status. This is a very open, honest, and raw conversation about dog breeding and more. In the end, it's Sophie's work that she hopes can help change the negative narrative Pitbulls unfairly carry and it's animals in her life who encourage her to keep going.

How do you dry off your wet dog after outdoor playtime? Shep and I developed a doggy drying routine last year when he was just a tiny pup. And we've continued it on through the summer months. Why? Just to keep him trained and make it a habit. Winter's here on the Pacific Northwest are very wet. And he just loves to swim on the coldest of days, run through the deepest puddles, and roll in the snow when it arrives. Listen in and see how we manage our long wet days. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/april-thompson47/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/april-thompson47/support

We kick off Pull It Together 2.0 with French award-winning photographer and animal advocate Sophie Gamand. Sophie travels the world photographing shelter dogs to help bring awareness to their fate, and help them get adopted. Her most known series are Wet Dog and Pit Bull Flower Power. Since 2010 Sophie’s focus has been unpacking the relationship between human and dog, but Sophie is a true renaissance woman and has lived many creative lives from opera singer to magazine curator to embroiderer. Throughout our conversation she shares how following her fear lead to her to her most poignant and powerful work. Sophie also shares her personal journey with therapy and how she has handled the conflict of needing to heal herself, but feeling as though her art would suffer if she was no longer in that dark place. We discuss how she used art to address her demons and work through past traumas. We learn that creativity doesn’t come from pain, but comes from our ability to connect.

Welcome to The Woof Life Show - a podcast created for dog lovers, by dog lovers! Hosted by Lauren Farricker. In this episode, Lauren continues her chat with Sophie Gamand. You know Sophie for being a viral sensation with her incredible artwork and photography. She is an advocate for rescue dogs most especially for bully breeds.  Did you know that pitbulls are the breed that is most likely be euthanized when they end up at an animal shelter? Sophie is the author of Wet Dog and Pitbull Flower Power. Her work is widely shared on social media @sophiegamand. Her new Pitbull Flower Power coffee table book is one of the best dog books that I’ve ever seen because it features her incredible work as well as the stories of these pups and these shelters who care for these pups. Sophie shares her background, her early work in photography, about her family and she shares about how her move to New York challenged her creatively which was the genesis for both her Wet Dog project and Pitbull Flower Power. Sophie was afraid initially of pitbulls so when she challenged herself to work with rescue dogs in shelters she challenged herself to work with the bully breeds. She conceived of a new artistic venture where she would create flower crowns to put on these pitfalls and take portraits of the pups to help support in their adoption.  Sophie has captured these photos and travels to shelters all over. Her craft and ability to work with these rescues highlights the realities of dog rescue. This also includes traveling to Puerto Rico that was an overwhelming amount of dogs up for rescue. Sophie even ended up adopting her pup MacLovin from a rescue in Puerto Rico on some pretty horrific circumstances. We’ve split the conversation with Sophie into two episodes. She is such an incredible advocate of both rescue and advancing the perception of pitbulls. Enjoy this conversation with Sophie. Please rate, share and subscribe to The Woof Life Show!

Don't get corked...and how to risk (wisdom from Brene Brown)

Hosts: Ed Brown, Dr. Shayne Joseph, Penny Dumsday. Topics covered: The vigorous shaking of a wet dog can remove up to 70% of the water in its fur in four seconds. Possibly up to three species of ancient humans lived in Africa 2 million years ago. A new insect species is discovered, thanks to Flickr. Could allergies reduce the risk of certain brain cancers? And did bacteria influence single-celled organisms to form multi-celled animals?
