TW: Pet Loss, Abuse, DV, Grooming. Due to these trigger warnings, we encourage listeners to please scroll to the timestamps listed below to read each question to avoid potential triggers.

How do you mourn the loss of your favorite furry friend? We all wish to memorialize our loved ones, but oftentimes pet loss is not talked about enough. This week we tackle leaving a miserable job in hopes of a happier life, discuss the heartache of pet loss, and explore how we choose whether or not to support controversial creators like J.K. Rowling, Elvis, or Chris Brown.

Question One: Any tips on quitting? I'm miserable at my current job but am fairly confident I could find a new one. (20:00)

Question Two: We have to put down my 15 year old lab in a couple weeks and I don't know how to prepare for that kind of loss. His bad days far outweigh his good ones and I only get to see him one last time when I'm home next weekend. What ideas do you have for me to remember him by? (30:51)

Question Three: What do you think about listening to songs from people who are controversial or have done sketchy immoral things? Michael Jackson was a child molester and Chris Brown has an abusive past.  (45:25)
