The story delves into themes of memory, trauma, and the search for meaning, as Toru encounters a cast of eccentric characters and navigates a dreamlike world beneath the surface of Tokyo.

When you hear the term "animal welfare" you probably think cats, dogs, horses, maybe pet parakeets. But there is an organization called Wild Animal Initiative that is expanding the notion of animal welfare to include wild/free-living animal individuals. For my 100th podcast episode, my guest Cat Kerr with Wild Animal Initiative was here to talk about how scientists try to measure wellbeing in wild animals (you can guess some of the criteria) and why we have not often done that in scientific research

Was he ordering a saucer of milk, neat? Did a Persian bombshell break his heart? The

We connected about four years ago but the longer we know each other the more we uncover how our lives have intersected over a number of decades. When I thought of doing something to promote op shopping, I knew Shaz was the person to partner up with. Of course she jumped in immediately with a yes. In our chat we talk about our love o...
