"The basic premise of the event is that hunters hunt rattlesnakes from the surrounding environment all across West Texas, and bring them into the roundup for the weekend. And during the roundup, these snakes are kept in a pit and then, one by one, beheaded and skinned in front of in front of audiences." - Elizabeth MeLampy Elizabeth MeLampy is a lawyer dedicated to animal rights and protection, and her passion for this work shines through in her latest book, Forget the Camel, the Madcap World of Animal Festivals and What They Say About Being Human . To research the book, Elizabeth traveled across the country, immersing herself in a wide range of animal festivals — from the Iditarod dog sled race to the rattlesnake roundup in Sweetwater, Texas. Elizabeth examines these festivals as revealing microcosms of our broader relationship with animals. Whether it's rattlesnake hunts, frog-jumping contests, ostrich races, or groundhog celebrations, these events reflect the ways humans use animals to express cultural identity, community pride, and historical traditions. Yet beneath the pageantry and excitement lies a deeper question: Is our fascination with these spectacles worth the toll it takes on the animals involved? With compassion and insight, Elizabeth invites readers to consider whether there’s a more ethical and empathetic way to honor our stories — one that respects both animals and the traditions they inspire. Please listen, share and read, Forget the Camel. It will be released on April 8th, 2025. https://apollopublishers.com/index.php/forget-the-camel/…

Have you met Balance yet?

Ok, so when I say that I’m guessing I sound a little crazy but I’m not. You see I spent many years of my life chasing work-life balance rather than listening to what my body and my mind were trying to tell me and in my corporate career it left me burnt out.

It felt like the harder I chased balance, the more elusive she became and the more disconnected I became from myself, from my true essence and the ones I loved.

When I let go of what society defined as balance and created the space to listen to what my body and mind needed for me to show up as the woman I wanted to be, I discovered something simple and life-changing.

Balance was not a destination; it was a way of being, and it is found in the micro-moments of recharge and rest that you choose to inject into each day. The more I invest in these sacred pockets of time, the more impact I have and the more I feel connected to the woman I want to be in the world.

I know I’m not alone when I say the pursuit of balance is burning us out. It’s for this exact reason that I want you to meet Balance on this week’s podcast. She has a message for you, and I know you’re going to want to hear it.
