chapter is a good one. Discover your story, your vibe, your roost at studentroost.com.uk Welcome to rates and barrels.

It is Friday, August 22nd.

Derek and rapper Enoceros here with you.

On this episode, we take a look at a few mailbag questions

and get ready for weekend waiver pickups. We're actually recording this on Thursday afternoon. I know, you said it's

Friday, but is it though? I'm lying. I'm lying to, um, to preserve my own sanity. You have had a

crazy week this week in the Van Riper household.

I just want calm and rest, and it's still going to be a couple of weeks away.

So people who've listened for a long time know we have a lovely golden doodle.

Hazel, she's eight years old.

Hazel had to have some surgery to get some bumps removed this week, which is great because it went well.

It should help her quality of life long term.

Should hopefully keep her with us for a long time.

The thing you might know about Hazel as a golden doodle is she's very active.

So to keep an active dog calm and just laying around all day is actually more difficult than you think.

Especially when she's wearing a giant cone and does not like that giant cone.

She's just banging the cone into the things and walking around. Yeah, like, and, you know, she wants to get up and down off of furniture,

and we got to keep all that stuff covered.
