Holiday Season Foods for Doggo
Vet Med For Idiots By Idiots
Happy Holidays!!!! With the holiday season coming up, we know it is important to have a reminder of what is safe and unsafe for your favorite pooch to eat. Encompassing Thanksgiving, Christmas, and all other feasts from now til the end of the year, it is very common for vet visits to spike after these days due to dogs being exposed to too many different foods. In a first, the Idiots are in person together. As they have always attempted to make this show feel like you are sitting around a dining room table having a drink and talking with them, they lean entirely into it. This is an...

It's All Bull...
Vet Med For Idiots By Idiots
We've reached the end of season 2, Idiot Army! The Idiots close out the season in a role reversal, with Dr Kent hosting and Cory co-hosting. Cory pitches nontraditional, nonmainstream, and nonscientific medicine to Kent, who shoots them all down. Discussions include antivaxxing, amber beads, and other whack crackadoo stuff. It's a good time. They also do a small mail call, talk about the future, and discuss what NHL players Cory would beat up in a fight. All aside, thank you for two seasons of listening. If you keep spreading the word and listening, we'll keep doing this.

Mods
Vet Med For Idiots By Idiots
The Idiots discuss dog mods, specifically dewclaws, ear cropping, and tail chopping. If you are a AKC aficionado or a 1700s hunter, you may really want to pay attention. Basically, this is it in the episode. If there was one to skip, it's this one. Normal episodes are terrible, but this one is bad even for the Idiot's standards. Cory the Common Idiot does start with a joke, which is fun. It peaks 13 seconds in.

Residence Evil With Scrubs
Vet Med For Idiots By Idiots
Howdy young Idiots! If last week's episode didn't sell you on the easy and gravy career path of a veterinarian with exciting tales of clinicals, this one will really grab you when we talk about resident work with the Resident Doctor Idiots, Dr Rigo and Dr Louie. They discuss the world of internships and residencies, the difference between private practice vs acadamia from a resident standpoint, how to make a bionic frog (we can rebuild him, we can make his stronger, faster, ribbitier), and other fascinating things. Plus, Dr. Kent makes fun of other people than Cory.

BONUS EPISODE! SURPRISE! In a VMFIBI first, the Dr. Idiot ventures on his own with Dr. Erin, better known as the Large Animal Idiot, or by the end of this bonus episode, Food and Bird Idiot. They continue the conversation from the Vet School Expectations, with a few beers, margaritas, and arts and crafts. Join them for a fun conversation, hear about more horror stories, but, see the light at the end of the table. Yes, it's tough, but it's also worth it.

Pay Dat Bill, Yo!
Vet Med For Idiots By Idiots
The Idiots discuss paying for veterinary medicine in this week’s episode, and why the costs can get to what is perceived as high. Remember, if you don’t pay your bill, you’re not just scum, they know where you live. Doctors often have a huge degree (no pun intended) of debt they come out of vet school with to keep your pet alive and being the best version of themselves. If you are facing hardships, google is your best friend. There are often clinics and resources in the community that can help with low income families with veterinary care. Some food banks actually have pet medicine and...

Mental Health In the Workplace (Veterinary and Otherwise) with Amber Johnson, MSW.
Vet Med For Idiots By Idiots
Episode 20- Mental Health in the Vet World. The Idiots are joined by Idiot Brainwitch Amber, LLMSW (and a whole lot of other letters) who discusses the importance of boundaries, mental health, and staying safe in your own head. The episode goes a little off the walls, as you would imagine with three neurodivergent people. If you are in the veterinary world, this is a must listen. If you are not, this also is a good listen as burnout and secondhand trauma exists in many careers. We also discuss the importance of boundaries and that veterinarians do not owe you anything, even if you sorta kinda...

The Doctors Fernandez
Vet Med For Idiots By Idiots
This weeks episode brings the Doctors Fernandez (@thedoctorsfernandez) who discusses mixed animal clinics, what it takes to work on a kangaroo and an owl, why you should learn to duck faster if you are castrating a bull, and why they are an incredible resource for all the young Pre-Vet Med Idiots out there. Also, Kent and Cory say some stuff, but does anyone really listen when they talk?

In a first, the Idiots are in person together. As they have always attempted to make this show feel like you are sitting around a dining room table having a drink and talking with them, they lean entirely into it. This is an entirely uncut episode, every awkward pause, every grumble from the dogs, background noise, even a couple interruptions from friend of the show and wife of Cory, Amber, the Brainwitch Idiot, to bring delicious macarons. This is as close as hanging with the Idiots as you can get. Plus, you get to avoid smelling Mutie's noxious gas drops.
