This week, Alexis and Ella are joined by writer and performer Courtney Ceanne Buchner. She is Cat Mum (Mom, blah bah blah) to Bailey, a fountain of fun South Africa stories (wild rhino chase anyone?) and one of Ella's best friends. We get sentimental in this one and take a moment to really appreciate the ways in which our pets aid and affect our mental health. Its a proper emotional support animal moment, so have a cup of tea at the ready! 

Today Ella and Alexis are joined by Vanessa Zoltan, the host of glorious podcasts Harry Potter and the Sacred Text, The Real Question and Hot & Bothered. She is also the CEO/Founder of Not Sorry productions and the dog Mum (Mom, whatever, we're transatlantic) to Rory Hermione Gilmore Zoltan. She talks socialite dogs, blended families and german pets! Ella fan girls (big surprise) and Alexis has a dog biography question that yields an amazing answer!
