Welcome to another exciting episode of Ojai's podcast. Just in time for October's Adopt-A-Dog Month, we have a very special guest with us, Eric Knight, the executive director of the Humane Society of Ventura County. Eric is a passionate advocate for animal welfare, and he joins us to shed light on the incredible work being done at the shelter in Ojai.

Eric takes us on a journey through the Humane Society of Ventura County, sharing heartwarming stories of rescue, rehabilitation, and the commitment of his dedicated team. We explore the challenges and triumphs of running a shelter, discuss the importance of adoption, and discover the many ways in which this organization has made a profound impact on the lives of animals and the community it serves.

We also talk about the serendipitous twists and turns of his varied career, including his many years in the entertainment industry, and what brought him to Ojai. We did not talk about Arctic Tern migrations, the German concept of Fingerspitzengefühl, or the pigments of Renaissance-era paints.
