If you've got some outdoor space, chickens can be great pets with additional egg producing benefits. These are often overlooked as avian pets in favor of parrots, but chickens are a charismatic species that come in many breeds and personalities, and can also be quieter and less bitey than parrots.

Jez talks about a recent corporate gig he did where a right wing American was in the crowd, while Nicole and Jez discuss the world of pet chickens, and Nicole does multiple chicken impressions. Bok bok.

Fostering adoptable pets for a rescue agency is a great way of temporarily having a pet when you don't have the finances or stability to allow you to have your own. It also gives a shelter animal a chance to live in a real household while they are waiting for a permanent home, and opens up more space in the shelter for additional intakes.

Recorded several months ago, Jez talks about the 800 Pound Gorilla Release (that didn't end up happening) for his special, while Nicole and Jez discuss the benefits of becoming a foster carer, and why it can be a win/win situation for everybun involved.

​​Pets are expensive!

Everything is expensive now. Inflation is out of control. End stage capitalism has destroyed the economy. BUT! There are finance options that can help with the cost of vet care, and we're finding that pet owners are relying more on these options.

Jez complains about editing, while Nicole and Jez discuss veterinary finance options such as memberships and pet insurance; so you can be prepared if your pet needs expensive help.
