We're back! The new season of The Doc Project kicks off with two stories of longshots, and of keeping the flame alive when the odds aren't on your side.

First up: They're sometimes called "paper candidates" or even "sacrificial lambs" - federal election candidates who enter so-called "unwinnable" races. As election day approaches, four former candidates from elections past describe what it’s like to be the horse no one’s betting on.

Next: Zeppelin the cat lived a good life, and when his pet parent, Desiree Hobbins, discovered he died in September 2020 she mourned him and spread his ashes in a favourite spot. After eight months of mourning, Hobbins got a call from the Regina humane society saying they found Zeppelin and he was ready to come home. But her cat died… right? She spread his ashes... right?
