I know I usually do this about a day or two after I upload a new episode but I've been busy. Since the article came out in the Indiana Daily Student, I've been working on my show proposal to move the show to IU student Television. With the help in IUSTV I hope to change the format of the show to a late night talk show with an audience. I think it'll be really cool to have this in Bloomington. But I'm getting ahead of myself. I haven't even gotten my acceptance letter yet...
Anyway, about this episode. The idea came to me when I was petting my cat. You see I love my cat. I put all the love that I would put on a child onto my cat. I would have done an entire episode to my cat if didn't make me look crazier than I already am so I decided to extend it to all pets. Delilah's Pet Shop is a local pet shop that's been a Bloomington fixture for as long as I can remember. I remember people always talking about how pet shops are evil and having been to Delilah's (and petting Delilah, the owner's giant gentle saint bernard) I knew that this was far from the case. I decided that I wanted to give this pet shop a chance to show the world that not ALL pet shops are evil. But as she says, you do have to be careful and make sure the place is reputable.
Then I had to include the shelter. My cat was a stray. The two dogs I grew up with are strays. Shelter animals make some of the greatest pets. You save a life and you get a best friend for cheap. The dog, Forrest, was wonderful to play with. If I was a young child with as much energy as him, we could wear each other out by playing all day. I emailed Jo Liska to get an update on Forrest. I'm told that's he's been adopted and is doing well in his new home. Always nice to get a happy ending.
Anyway, that's it for now. I'm working on a new episode right now. It showcases local bands in the area. It's gonna be a good episode. Stay tuned for that one.
