In West Virginia folklore, there's a mysterious beast that is reported to be a winged humanoid with red eyes who most know by the moniker, Mothman. The first sighting of Mothman was in Point Pleasant, West Virginia in the late 60's. Since then, sightings have been reported all over the world.
In this episode of Obsessed with the Palmers, hosts Clay and Caitlin Palmer dive in to the myth and try to find the facts behind the legend.

More than 99% of veterinarians surveyed said they’d encountered useless or non-beneficial veterinary care in their careers, according to a new Cornell-led study that documents the prevalence of futile care for the first time. The authors use a working definition of futile care as continuing treatment when relevant goals can no longer be reached.
On this episode of Vet Candy IRL with host, Dr. Shannon Gregoire, we meet one of the authors of the study, Cornell's Dr. Nathan Peterson. Dr. Nathan is an associate clinical professor with the section of emergency and critical care and lead author of the study.

On this episode we meet Dr. Renee Wellenstein. Dr. Renee is a double board certified doctor who has been working with women for over 20 years and due to her own personal health challenges, she stepped outside the box of conventional medicine to take a radically different approach to heal herself from the deep depths of burnout.
About a decade ago, Dr. Renee was living what she thought was her dream life; she was an extremely busy Ob/Gyn, married to a doctor, with toddler twins and had moved to a quaint, quiet town in the country.
One day in May 2012, Dr. Renee fell off of her horse during a riding lesson and broke her back. She not only struggled with severe back pain, but with fatigue and the inability to focus. Her doctor diagnosed her with depression, but her symptoms did not improve after trying two different antidepressants.
Two years after her injury, Dr. Renee was still struggling with unexplained symptoms. After exhausting all of her options in the conventional healthcare system, she was put in contact with a doctor who was an “anti-aging” practitioner. She finally received the appropriate diagnosis, her symptoms resolved and she got back on her feet and joined the world of functional medicine.
In 2019, Dr. Renee started Kaspira Elite Health Consulting, LLC. Throughout her journey she has certainly faced her fair share of obstacles and has mastered the art of leaping into transitions with each pivot. Now Dr. Renee empowers women to take control of their health, jumpstart their energy, improve their confidence, and reignite their libido!

Have you signed an employment contract? Chances are, buried in the pages of paperwork is a non-compete clause. This little section of text might only be a couple of sentences long, but it’s incredibly important. A bad, poorly written, or otherwise unethical non-compete agreement has the potential to turn that exciting new job into, well…a veterinarian’s worst nightmare for long term career growth!
The last thing you want is to be restricted professionally. Or feel stuck in a position you can’t leave.
On this episode of Working Class on Vet Candy Radio, hosts Eric B Meyer, Esq. a defense attorney and Omar A Lopez, Esq. an plaintiff attorney talk about contracts from the view of the employer and the employee for a fair and balanced discussion about the law. What you can do, what you can't do, and more importantly, what you should do before signing the next one.

On this episode of Living Well with Dr. Jessica, our guest is Dr. Joseph Hahn, from Merck Animal Health. Dr. Joseph talks about the results from the most recent veterinary wellness study.
From hospital directors and practice owners, to veterinary technicians, veterinarians, and administrative staff, the latest wellbeing study- conducted by AVMA (American Veterinary Medical Association) Merck Animal Healthand Brakke Consulting revealed the main barriers impacting those who practice veterinary medicine are the shortage of qualified staff and the fact that not all clinic or hospital employees have access to the same mental health tools as veterinarians.
👉While 92% of respondents rated increased stress as one of their top mental health challenges, 88% cited student debt and concerns about the risk of suicide as leading stressors for veterinarians.
👉More than 90% of respondents reported that the shortage of qualified veterinary staff has been one of the biggest concerns.
👉The percentage of veterinarians with serious psychological distress has increased to 9.7% in 2021 as measured by the Kessler Psychological Distress Scale, compared to 6.4% in 2019, due in large part to the ongoing pandemic.
👉Among staff, the prevalence of serious psychological distress was nearly twice as high (18.1%). In addition, half of staff respondents (49.6%) and approximately one-third (30.5%) of veterinarians reported high levels of burnout.

On this episode of Working Class with employment attorneys Eric B. Meyers and Omar A. Lopez, we talk about whistleblower laws. A whistleblower is a person, often an employee, who reveals information about activity that is deemed illegal, immoral, illicit, unsafe or fraudulent. This term has become more mainstream with the new HULU series, The Dropout, which chronicles the sometimes illegal activity of real life company heads of Theranos.
What should you do if your boss tells me to do something illegal? What if she asked you to change medical records or lie to a client? You have to check out the show to find out more!
