About this Episode
It's pet week! The annual pet pageant took over the cover of WW this week, so we talked to one of the writers who dove into Portland's leading companions. Calley Hair tells us what to look out for as we abandon our best friends when we return to the office for the first time in years. We also talk to State Representative Dacia Grayber about how she used her cat in an unusual way and it helped out big time.
We also tell you all the headlines from this past week and give you dinner suggestions. All in a day's work.
