We are thrilled to announce the launch of Season 2 of the Critters and Cultures podcast - live today! 🎙✨
Critters and Cultures is a podcast dedicated to exploring the powerful intersection of animals, culture, and the human-animal bond. Each episode uplifts diverse voices, shares deeply personal stories, and challenges the way we think about veterinary medicine, animal welfare, and our connections with one another. These are conversations you won't hear anywhere else in our space - and that's what makes this season so special.
💡 Launch Lineup for Season 2:
-
Sept 23 – Sabrina Fatrdla - How Romani Heritage Shapes Global Animal Advocacy
-
Sept 30 – Dr. Navaratnam Partheeban - Racism on the Farm, Treating Cattle as a Minority Veterinarian in the UK
-
Oct 7 – Dr. Wesley Cheung - Accent Bias in Vet Med and Animal Welfare
-
Oct 14 – Jaslyn Zarate - Turning Trauma into Advocacy for Pets and People
Season 1 is already available for anyone who would like to catch up, and Season 2 builds on that foundation with even more stories that celebrate diversity and honor culture across communities worldwide.
