This week, on Intelligentsia we’re talking all things pets—from our childhood companions, Tara’s “brother” Tiger the hamster, Joey’s dog Diver, and Ryan’s whole menagerie, to Joey and Tara’s current furry friends and most perfect angels, Archie and Stevie. We’ll reminisce about presidential pets, iconic pets in pop culture, debate the merits of various TV and movie animal sidekicks, and discover Joey’s shocking lack of Air Bud knowledge. Plus: dog bite drama, dog vs. cat people, and find out which side of the adopt vs. shop debate we fall on. Meow.
