Vet Candy – Veterinary Lifestyle, News & Learning

Think you know cats? Like really know cats? Then it’s time to put those whisker facts to the test. In the newest episode of Cat Daddy on Pet Candy Radio, our favorite feline fanatic, Keleigh Schettler, joins the show for an all-out cat trivia showdown.

 

Host, Caitlin Palmer, dives in with Keleigh to tackle the big questions—like why cats knock everything off the counter, if they actually love us, and who decided that purring is a normal sound to make when you’re happy andstressed.

Spoiler: things get competitive, someone confuses a Maine Coon with a mountain lion, and there’s at least one dramatic “meow” reenactment.

Keleigh brings her A-game, dropping cat facts faster than a kitten chasing a laser pointer. You’ll laugh, you’ll learn, and you’ll definitely question your life choices if you miss this one.

So grab your cat (if they’ll let you), your headphones, and maybe a lint roller—because Who’s Got the Cat Smarts? is the purr-fect mix of chaos, comedy, and cat education you didn’t know you needed.

Nobody warned you about this part of veterinary medicine.

In this episode of Let's Be Honest, twin veterinarians Dr. Audrey and Dr. Alison Shen get real about the stuff vet school never prepares you for — burnout, imposter syndrome, toxic workplace cultures, and the crushing self-doubt that follows you home after a long shift. They've lived it, navigated it, and came out the other side with hard-won perspective they're ready to share.

If you've ever questioned whether you belong in this profession, this episode is for you.

Season one of Brainsmarts goes out with a bang — and a little bit of chaos — LIVE from the floor of the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino during Western Veterinary Conference.

Hosts Caitlin Palmar and Clay Palmar literally run into Caitlin’s former (and current) employer, Dr. Dean, on the way to Las Vegas and decide the only logical next step is to put him on the mic.

The season finale is part reunion, part career reflection, and part “how did this even happen?” — plus a look back at the most unforgettable moments from season one. From the iconic Canadian This-or-That episode with Shannon Gervais, to fashion hot takes and trivia with Chicago’s own Dr. Thomas Vega, to parasite horror stories with Dr. Hannah Jordan, it’s the perfect send-off before the next chapter.

Recorded live. Slightly unhinged. Totally Brainsmarts.
