After Peter brings up the Roe v Wade issue currently making its way through the Supreme Court, Peter & Phil go into a discussion about the ethics of our choices, and all the layers one has to consider when making hard decisions.  Pet owners have the difficult decision to put their pets to sleep, but just because a decision is potentially difficult, does that mean people should not be given the choice?  Join us, as the two discuss matters of life and death - and the choices we all should have in the matter (or not).  

In this up-close and personal courageous conversation, Peter & Phil discuss the nuclear family.  When Peter shares a painful family secret with Phil it opens up an entirely new conversation on the unintended therapeutic consequence of sharing.  It also reveals a new topic about vulnerability and the true meaning for Peter in terms of 'courageous conversations.'  Join us this week. 

Peter and Phil sit down and talk the Thursday before Mother's Day and pay homage to their mothers.  What's a mother's role and how did Peter & Phils's mothers impact them in their upbringing and where they are now?  Join us this week.  

Peter and Phil have another courageous conversation about the need for debate in our political and justice system.  While Congress and news outlets teeter on the edge of arguments, Peter and Phil point out the need for good sound debates instead.  The discussion eventually leads the two into a debate of their own! Join us this week as we discuss the art of healthy debating, Supreme Court justice nominee Kentaji Brown Jackson, and friendship. 

Phil asks Peter to share how he makes friends and it transforms into a courageous conversation on the foundation of friendship.  Why do we need friends?  What are we looking for in our friendships?  Do political, monetary, and/or social class come into play when choosing your friends?  Join us this week as we discuss friendships and don't forget to stay involved by answering this week's poll! 

This week, Peter and Phil continue last week's conversation.  Join us as they discuss Dr. Blackwell's father (one of the first black veterinarians in the country), how slow change has been for BIPOC people in the Vet-Med industry, and what needs to be done to fix the system.  You won't want to miss this episode!

Peter and Phil invite colleague Dr. Michael Blackwell onto the discussion.  This week's topic covers the problem with modern-day health care (comparisons and contrasts) as it relates to both humans and dogs alike!  You won't want to miss this episode!

Peter and Phil finish last week's conversation in regards to the war between Russia and Ukraine.  In the hypothetical situation that America was ever attacked again, would the nation be able to put aside its differences and stand to fight together? Join us this week as we continue the courageous conversation. For more info, visit peterandphil.com. 

The war in Ukraine brings Peter to beg the question, how many people in America would be willing to fight for their land, their homes, their country?  Have an opinion? Answer the poll!  And then Join Peter and Phil this week as they discuss this question and more! 

This week Phil & Peter continue last week's conversation with the war in Ukraine and compliment the millennial and younger generations on their use of social media to filter out fact from fiction.  Join us for another awesome conversation!
