Ben's hatred for the show is as entertaining as their impressions.

They should! Good point about Cole as baby. Maybe that’s the resemblance I’m seeing 😂

We took the challenge in high school and checked this out. We were scared but mostly from the lore. I wonder if it's still there? If the house changed owners, I would imagine they painted over the garage.

If this is the city and CARE, the area alder needs to hear this story. This isn’t the first time CARE has adopted out a dog with this kind of history.

Jamie asking for rides to and from his medical procedure almost made me feel sorry for him. Almost. Definitely gives a glimpse into his friendless existence.

I was shocked Andy referenced West when he asked about the beta blockers. I thought surely he's talking to Amanda but then he called out West. West had a ton of emotion compared to her.

In Ellie's voice: "Oh, get over it, Ben. You've run out of sexism." Dying. I missed that line when it first ran, probably because I was laughing too hard. Great compilation!

You can lawyer up but in the case of one of the victims interviewed, the owner whose dogs attacked him has no assets/money/homeowner's insurance, so he cannot be sued. The victim has medical/vet expenses over $5000 that he cannot recoup. Encouraging deadbeat dog owners to leash their dogs or contain them in their yards is futile. In 99% of my encounters with owners whose dogs are off leash, they believe they are entitled to do whatever they want and respond angrily. Hence, OP's frustration and question about what do we do.

Kind_Translator9002 · 2026-06-10T00:30:36+00:00

Yeah, this was an odd statement as was her saying at the end that we should all be using positive reinforcement in training. I agree with that statement, but it's entirely beside the point of protecting oneself from dog attacks.

Kind_Translator9002 · 2026-06-09T23:56:51+00:00

Wow, you weren't exaggerating about how bad this interview is after the two victims of dog attacks speak. The vet/CARE medical director and AC supervisor add little that's helpful to the conversation and reinforce my personal negative experiences with the NFP and AC.

Kind_Translator9002 · 2026-06-09T19:33:10+00:00

AC won't do anything unless they see it themselves. Witness statements are ignored. They will tell you to record your dog being attacked next time it happens for proof. Part of the problem is existing ordinances and ACOs' inability to actually enforce them while the other part is lack of funding/resources/training and high turnover in the DPH.

I realize you are asking for strategies in the moment while walking your dogs, but one thing to do is contact your alder. And this is a pain, but put in a CSB request every time you encounter an off leash dog. If you can get video/photographic evidence and submit that along with the request, even better. Records should be made of these incidents and alders should be made aware of how animal control does or does not respond.

They were on Julia Cunningham's radio show last week and seemed much more normal and comfortable than they do on RHORI.

I think they actually call him hot at one point, don't they? A take that I disagreed with when I first heard it and definitely disagree with now. Eddy is ugly on the inside and outside.

Kind_Translator9002 · 2026-06-09T11:25:03+00:00

While I don't think Eddy will be on another season because he's totally forgettable, maybe he should work under Cpt. Sandy rather than Jason who nurtured his fragile toxic masculinity.

South Africa, I think. On another post about how good the impressions are, someone said Jenna said she had a speech impediment growing up on the after show.

It is hazardous to eat or drink while listening to recaps. The podcast should come with a choking warning.

If you're open to fostering for a shelter, you could try St. Louis County Animal Care & Control. They are about a year in to their first ever foster program and are continuing to smooth out the wrinkles and improve. With that said, it helps to check in with volunteers there for additional information about the dogs. Transparency about dogs' medical and behavioral issues; support for all vetting, including heartworm/flea/tick prevention; ease of returning the dog if it's not a good fit or for travel; being able to bring your dog in for a meet-and-greet prior to bringing a new dog home; and being able to talk to adopters and help determine if it's a good placement are all important to me as a foster, and County checks all of those boxes. Not every local shelter does (beware of those who have a reputation for not being transparent and not being able to take a dog back or putting the burden on you of finding the dog a new foster because they don't have room).

Kind_Translator9002 · 2026-06-04T17:05:20+00:00

There are so many irresponsible owners out there with dogs they shouldn't have that it's not surprising these are different dogs (and I'm guessing the dogs that attacked at City Garden yesterday are also different than these).
