My heart melted when Veronica was falling asleep on Bree at the beginning. Keep up the great work!!
Zak George's Wife Training Revolution
Omg the way she’s just trying to get comfy on Bree’s knees in the beginning, DETERMINED to snuggle 😂
I love seeing Bree training Veronica with your guidance! It’s like we get the best of both worlds! I’m going to look into clicker training a bit more because I think it could be helpful for my pup. I would also just like to say that I appreciate the ads in your videos for a couple of reasons: they suggest products that I might want to try, I know you only work with brands you trust, and the money from ads allows you to bring us all of this incredible content for free! So grateful for you and Bree and Inertia and Veronica! You’re helping so many! 💜
Loved this video! Our puppy stopped playing when she heard the clicker and ran over to watch you training your puppy. I am getting a clicker tomorrow. 😊 And! …..we had our puppy’s crate ready the first night we brought her home. We were determined we could do this! Then the first whimper started…..and suddenly I wondered if there was puppy zen music…I jumped out of bed and grabbed my iPad…10 hours of puppy sleepy zen music, who knew?!..thank goodness my iPad was fully charged…but she was asleep in minutes and she has never slept anywhere except for her crate and we are 3 mos into this. In fact when she starts to drowse for her nap, she can’t sleep until she goes to her crate. You guys rock!
Yessss! This is what we wanted to see. We know Zak can but it's cool to see Bree doing the training!
Inertia looking at veronica in the cage like " sis chill it's not that bad! I'll lay here to keep you company. Relax "
Since I've been watching this new series with Veronika, I feel like my puppy is an angel. And it's all thanks to you, Zak!
That is a great way to show how owners can follow up Your advices by themselves . It is easy to see how You do training , but sometimes it is hard to do that , too .
Again... only 4 minutes and I'm obsessed. Other than the training, him being proud of Bri is so cute. She is too a great trainer. Very sweet and patient ☺️
Thank you, to both of you, for sharing ALL the ups & downs of puppy training! It helps those of us at home to see some authentic human moments(Even when you live with a dog trainer🙃) My other half and I find group projects challenging 🤣
I love how Bree looks super excited to train Veronica. Way to go. 😀
Love seeing the ups and the downs. It's very encouraging to see it's not always smooth sailing and that that's okay. Also, all the wild animals you have right outside your door is unimaginable to me!
I would love to see how you work with the pups for nail trims, ear cleanings, and teeth brushing. It is a super struggle at our house!
He’s made videos on this before
@@erickmora5390 Thank you! I will look them up!!
We do have past videos on this, but it will also be coming very soon with Veronica 😜🙌
@@breejustine ♥️♥️♥️
Bree George's Dog Training Revolution2! Nicely done Bree, looking good as a trainer. Good luck with the separation anxiety, hope Veronica gets over it soon. My dog has not and we've about given up on her. Can't wait to see Bree train that cutie as Veronica grows up. Inertia has her paws full with that little wiggle worm. Fun to watch.
i appreciate the content you two create so so much. not only do i LOVE watching your videos, but i enjoy and utilize the information and training methods you provide in my daily dog mom life. i can not explain how much your channel has helped me build a healthy relationship with my dogs and the improvement i’ve seen in their behavior. i also appreciate the realism! training a dog is not always easy and the sessions are not always perfect!
Bree, you're doing a GREAT job! I'm very impressed. Not all of us are Zak Georges! It's much more difficult for those of us who don't work miracles!! Hang in there and keep at it. And don't be afraid to make mistakes. We all make mistakes and there are very, very, very few mistakes you can make that will "ruin" your dog. Most of the mistakes you can make that may "ruin" a dog involve the use of positive punishment, and I don't think you'll do that, so you'll be pretty safe to make mistakes without any "lasting" problems. And don't worry about making mistakes in a public forum. First of all, those of us who have trained dogs before will nod our head and say "yep, I made that mistake, too!!". Second, you can help others who are training the first dog to avoid making the same mistake. I, for one, will certainly think no less of you or think you're "inept" or "stupid" if you make a mistake. I have made plenty through the years and, alas, am still making them!! Any trainer that tells you they've never made a mistake is either lying or is so ego-maniacal that they can't see reality. And anyone like me (I've trained many dogs but don't consider myself a "trainer") certainly would be lying if they said they never made a mistake.
how cute is that dog, omg
Videos like this are great because it's super beneficial to see how a novice trainer does things and how you direct, correct, help out, and explain. I feel like you are explaining more or in a different way in this context. It's great!
Thank you so much Zac this is a very interesting exercises and i am so interested the way you train your dog will be buying one of your book and i will start from there..
I'm so excited for the DNA results, I forgot what I guessed last time. I think I guessed border collie/chihuahua mix, she's adorable and has little socks like a Border Collie. She could also have some Duck Tolling Retriever in her as well.
I don't know if she has any border collie but she might. I agree with the Chihuahua and Duck Tolling Retriever. My friend has a "Russian Toy" and it looks a lot like Veronica. Might be a mix of all 3, but I think Chihuahua and Russian Toy mix.
“Maybe 32 if you’re a dachshund.” 😂 So true.
Bahahaha
I wanna get one but all this talk of how they’re very stubborn does intimidate me
All four of you are amazing!The last days my respect for you reached new levels. I just comment to support your channel and I am getting everyone I know to subscribe as well!❤️💯
O, at the beginning when she lies on your lap Bree, heart melting
Separation anxiety is so tough. After 15 years, we've FINALLY overcome it and it's all thanks to what I've learned from Zak over the past few years!
As COVID restrictions were easing, I decided to try and think it through Zak George style. I knew my dog is highly food motivated, and she does better with bigger enclosed spaces than with small ones. She also can't stand to have any house door shut on her. Then too, she's a senior Maltese and can't hold her bladder for more than an hour or so and gets really upset to be near it if she has an accident.
So after thinking on that for a while, I got a 4x4 foot playpen designed for toddlers, lined it with a large washable potty pad and dusted off the Furbo. First day I left the little fabric door open and got in myself and gave her treats for coming in with me. Next couple times I left the door open and used the Furbo to give treats every time she went in, while I was still right next to the pen. The first time I left the door open for her to keep going in looking for treats. The second time we were done, I shut the door with her outside of it. Lo and behold, she was scratching to get IN! Next time I kept the door shut and put her in. I stayed there giving treats at increasingly longer intervals. I made sure I didn't push her past any anxiety threshold the entire time and I kept it pretty short to leave her wanting more. I did this with the door shut a couple times. Then I started walking away for a second and coming back and saying hello, giving a pet. I offered to pick her up and take her out, but she declined the offer to keep treat searching. Oh the joy!! 😍 Over the next few sessions I kept increasing my absence from 5 minutes to 30 minutes at a time, while also increasing the intervals between treats from 5 minutes to 10 minutes. From there we progressively made it to being in the pen for 2-3 hours at a time with up to 20 minutes between treats.
She never fully relaxes and lays down. She keeps looking for treats the whole time. But her separation anxiety is severe and has even been self destructive, so happily doing this much is huge for her. Thankfully I work from home so 2-3 hours is usually enough for me, but if I ever need more time than that I find a sitter.
The first time she peed in there I left her in and gave a few volleys of treats in quick succession. The pee pad soaked everything up quickly and she seemed ok despite, so that's been great.
The whole training process took about 3 weeks, working with her nearly every day. I never actually left the house until she was consistently doing 2 hours in there at a time without seeing me at all. Now I can stretch the treats up to 30 minutes, but I vary the times to keep it interesting and engaging for her.
The second time I left the house, she saw me getting ready and went and sat next to the playpen all on her own! 🎉 She also asks to get in when she sees me getting ready to go out gardening and doesn't want to come too! She's not a big gardener. 🤣
I'm so grateful for all the content Zak and his team put out there for us to learn from, for free! I don't think I ever would've figured this solution out without that training and instruction!
Ellie and I both thank you so much! 🐶💓🤗
That's so wonderful! ❤️
@@NyreeAlana You have no idea.... lol
Sounds like you're doing a great job on this!
@@victoriag7573 Thank you!
If Inertia saw Veronica biting Bree's hair, Inertia would say it's not spaghetti, it's mom's hair!
I love Your channel so much! Veronica is so cute and I'm so happy Bree gets a chance to train! Keep up the good work!
So happy to see Bree 🥰
I really like to listen to your experience🙃
wish I could meet both of you in person one day
My 10 month old pup was doing fine with her separation anxiety, and then got worse... Very thankful to see how you're dealing with Veronica's! And just as a side note, thank you so much for using your platform to stand up for women's rights!!
You ever tried snuggle puppy has a heart beat function that reminds them of their mom. I got my puppy one when I get her.
Hi zak again brilliant video I cant wait for Veronica's breed combination video it will be brilliant to know what she is keep these coming
I love thinking of all the people with new puppy who are going to benefit so much from your videos and be able to give them the best start in life! What I would have given to have this with my first dog! ❤️
I adopted a 10ish month old german shorthaired pointer/standard poodle mix(just got her DNA results today!) about a month ago I'd been watching your videos for about 6 months prior to adopting her. Your videos and tips have made her so much more manageable than I think she would have been otherwise and I think she's only going to get even better with training the more I learn how to work with her so thank you for the free training help!
Bree is a natural! You can totally see Bree is big time loved up with Veronica 😘
Maybe you could do a video on when fetch goes wrong?
My 5 month old chases the ball, picks it up and runs off.. I tried treats to get her to come back but she prefers me running around after her. She stops and waits for me to catch up and then she bolts again.
I'm an old and unfit 45yr old with a labradoodle so I'm thinking of buying some skates as a last resort
Put a long leash on the dog and instead of running after them, try running away from them and let them chase you.
I train with a tug toy on a long leash until they are reliably bringing it back. At first its also teaching them to come to you which is amazing. I’ve had two labs and they love playing with me so I play tug and then ask them to drop it and throw it and they go get and I call them back they wanna keep playing so they come back with the toy for more tug of war. The reward for bringing it back is simply tug of war. After that’s reliable then I’d go with a ball but a ball you can’t tug on it so if Ive used it to soon with my dogs they won’t bring it back always because they don’t get an exciting game of tug after they bring it back
Also if my dogs won’t listen when I’m asking them to come I’ll go in the other direction or around a corner and they’ll then come and see what I’m doing If i run or walk up to them they will run as it’s a game your chasing them. They need to chase you instead so you could even run or walk in the direction you wanna go calling them and my dogs have been curious enough to follow but all dogs maybe aren’t like that idk. I never chase tho cuz I need them to come to me it’s life or death situations sometimes I don’t want them to ever run from me. If your in a place where they aren’t safe off leash like your house or a fenced in yard then have them on a 20-30 foot leash so they are safe and can’t just run
You can figure out it tho I believe in you. Zaks videos helped me trained the best lab ever lol. She passed a few months ago but everyone that seen her could not believe she was a lab because she was so behaved. I now have a 3.5 month old lab and already when I take him places people are like are you sure that’s a lab lol. I train him before taking him places and play some fetch so he’s tired mentally and physically so he’s sleeping or just laying down most of the time and people can’t believe he’s a lab 🤦🏼♀️😂 fetch is definitely an important part of a good dog so I hope you can figure it out I believe in you!
When you chase after her, you're actually reinforcing that behavior (because it's a fun game to her!!). Try getting several balls and throw one. Throw one and when she runs and gets it, say her name in an upbeat way and show her the second ball. Make it really interesting--wave it around, throw it, bounce it--just so enticing! She will likely come running back to the second (more interesting) ball (the second ball is more interesting for a couple of reasons--first, it's attached to you, and second, it's moving and doing fun things). When she gets back to you, throw that ball. You may have to go "get" the first ball yourself, but don't make that fun for her. Make that boring, ho-hum, yawn. At some point, she'll likely come running back with the first ball still in her mouth and really praise her for that. Since she's a labradoodle, she'll probably pick up retrieving pretty quickly. I (in my "infinite wisdom") tried to teach one of my Irish Wolfhounds to retrieve a toy. That did not go well. The best I ever got was a look like "If you want it, why the **** did you throw it in the first place? Why should I go get for you? You want, you threw it, go get it yourself".
Very informative video!! 💛💙👍🐶
I think Veronica shows us all who her person is by falling a sleep in Brees lap at the beginning of this video 😍
This reminds me so much of my Whippet puppy. There were a few weeks of despair where I thought I'd never be able to leave her home alone. So glad that is all behind, haha.
My cockapoo has taught me so much ! 🙂
Omg, Veronica is nuts 😍
Thanks!
I love watching your videos, you are awesome at training dogs! Your videos also remind me of how much I prefer cats and am definitely not a dog person. :)
Love the videos, thank you. Do you have a technique for coping with the stress of thunderstorms. Spring in our area (Northern Australia) is full of storms and our older dog becomes very distressed, which is something we don't want her to teach the 4-month-old puppy. These are outdoor herding dogs (Maremma) who should be able to cope with storms.
I love your videos. It would be helpful if you let us know "This is our 3rd day with Veronica". My puppies have always seemed to get over being crated alone by the fourth night. How many weeks have we been watching Veronica now vs. actual number of days she has lived with you?
Hey Zak! I've been binge watching your videos for the last 3 months in preparation for my puppy Clifford (11 weeks), who I brought home on Monday! I am using your 30 perfect pup program, along with your puppy training videos. So far Clifford can play fetch, leave boiled chicken when it's dropped in front of him, sit, and come when called (sometimes), but he is struggling with being alone for even a second, and he is jumping a lot (he's a yorkie so I am concerned about hip dysplasia). I was wondering if you had any advice for Clifford and I?
Thanks for the video. It seems that those moments of anxiety in the long term would make her less self dependent.
Have you considered not forcing the cage in hope that she settled, and instead build up the trust in the area. While I've seen you do this before, I think it's clear she's having a hard time.
Love your Chanel! How would I get our dog to stop nipping at kids ? Particularly our Neices and nephews . She’s amazing with everyone else. Even our 8 month old but toddlers and up she doesn’t tolerate ? I’m not sure why. She gets protective over her toys and food and us as well with them here. Any help would be appreciated . What to do or what not to do thanks so much!!
Question for Zac you ever trained a dog for therapy work or service training. I’m getting a dog soon and I have some health problems and thinking of getting my puppy medical alert trained. I have dysautomia so my bp drops and heart rate rises to like 130 resting and I could pass out and hit my head if I am not careful.
My dog gets a little anxiety if I leave or my mom does even tho I’m home. so I give him some kibble and treats mixed in his ball so he’s distracted or on his snuffle mat but he finishes that to fast.
She's going to be a good looking dog.
When i got my puppy in feb i couldnot walk her because of injections.so i put her in a push chair so i could expose her different things traffic .now she 6mths and she not nervous at all.only thing is she a jumper.
Have you tried the clicker whenever she stops barking in the confined area or is momentarily calm?
tbh in the first month of having your puppy i would let the puppy sleep in your bed with you, then after around the 1st month i would start with the cage-training
cuz puppies cry and have separation anxiety cuz they aren't with their mom & siblings anymore, they are in a new home with new people and they need assurance to know that they're in a loving place all the time in the beginning
i did the same with my dog and when i started training her to show her where her bed is and that she should sleep in there, she did it very good and learned it pretty fast, without that much separation anxiety ☺️
This is a great idea since traditional episodes can get a bit repetitive. I’ve watched most of your series and the only thing I haven’t learned is how to socialize your dog with other dogs. I know you’ve mentioned setting play dates with your friends dogs, but does Inertia ever make new friends with dogs and people you don’t know? It’d be great if you can showcase this while on the road since I’m sure you’ll come upon many places with other dogs!
Can't wait to see her genetics!
Zak, do you always feed Inertia on the living room table? That seems odd and I wonder if it could lead to behavioral problems?
What length of lead do you use in the house to keep the controlled environment?
Help! Brought home our second puppy/dog. 6 month old. Needs potty training, and a realistic schedule.
Veronica loves her Bree. It was so cute when she crawled up into Bree's lap to snuggle; then, fell to sleep. I can hardly wait to hear the results of her DNA collection. I was thinking that she was going to be more of a medium sized dog; but her own humans would know better than me, and they seem to think she is chihuahua or dachshund. Maybe, she's picking up on Bree's desire to cuddle with her at night and her stress over Veronica's cries. Also, it's clear that, when Bree is near, Veronica wants to be as close to her as she can get.
The RUclips channel Modern Canine recently did a product review for a really cool Bully stick holder. I think you'd like it. If you are at all interested, I can provide a link to the video.
I think I might already have that bully stick holder! If it’s blue and dumbbell-shaped I do 😂 it is cool!! If you see more cool stuff like that let me know, I was excited to come across the bully stick holder 😜
@@breejustine Yes, that's it! 😃 Do Veronica and Inertia love them as much as you and I do? 😂
Trixi is training my boyfriend I got her@ two years old and my boyfriend just got together in January (Trixi is 5 years old now)and he’s been wanting to help work on stuff with her /training her but sometimes it seems like she’s training him more than he’s training her
Our 9 week golden puppy is very good at sitting, laying down, giving eye contact for food. But I think he's associating that during the walk and likes to plop down and look at me every 5 steps. How do I train him to walk and watch me?
Why not getting Inertia inside the create with Veronica?
woofing cute
What a beautiful bond between your wife and the little puppy ❤. That's why it is harder for her to stay in the crate.
Zak, I thought you didn't like breed stereotypes haha but you said it takes longer for dachshunds?😆
Hi
I can't find the video where you reveal her dog breed?
Wow
We. Need. More. Of. Inertia. Please!
Veronica is so LEGGY
❤️✨💯❤️
id much rather watch Zak train the dogs... since hes the professional
or maybe make her own channel? that way the people who wanna watc her training videos can watch her
PUPPY
Veronica is Bree's baby for sure
My daughter has her 2 year old mini aussie. She has never been socialized to other dogs, let alone people. I see this becoming progressively worse and she is getting more aggressive. Help, how do I fix this?
You're right. This can get worse and worse and she'll behave in ways that look more aggressive. I don't want to call her "aggressive" because (1) I haven't seen her, and (2) most dogs we call "aggressive" are really fearful instead of "aggressive". Since she hasn't been socialized, I'd be willing to bet a good little bit that her main issue is just that--lack of socialization--which breeds fearfulness. Dogs learn very quickly that if they behave in an aggressive manner, that will usually make the scary thing (other dogs and other people) go away (or you'll remove her from the situation). That aggressive behavior is reinforced by making the scary thing go away. All is not lost, so don't despair. You can use a combination of desensitization and counterconditioning to help her. I would like to suggest that you find a positive trainer in your area and work with that person to help you with the dog's issues. Do NOT allow a trainer to use "positive punishment" (like a choke collar, citronella collar, prong collar, or electronic collar, or hitting the dog, or a squirt bottle) with her. That will often make the problem WORSE (and she may react with even MORE aggression). Try to get her help as soon as possible--the longer she is reinforced for her aggressive behavior, the harder it will be to break that pattern of "I act aggressively, the scary thing goes away and I feel much better". And don't expect the trainer to tell you to "let her face her fear". That's called "flooding" (and as with "positive punishment", it can go horribly wrong). This may take some time to overcome, but you can very likely get her to a place where she can tolerate other dog and strange people around. She may never want to go play with other dogs and she may never be a real fan of prancing up to strangers for a nice belly rub, but she will likely be able to get to a point where she can tolerate being in fairly close proximity to other dogs and strangers without behaving in an aggressive manner. You also want to do this before the unthinkable happens and a bite occurs. I worked with a little dog that was afraid of children and by the time I came on board, she'd already bitten two children and if she bit another, she'd be euthanized. You don't want to go there!!!!! That story had a very happy ending (dog never bit another child), but they don't always have a good ending when you wait that long. Best of luck. BTW, if you can't find a positive trainer in your area, there are a number that now work remotely (thanks to the pandemic--maybe that's something good that came out of the pandemic!?!!). There are also some veterinary behaviorists that work with people remotely.
Where do you live with alligator, buffalo and bears
I don't always love how Zack talks to Brie.
I'm curious if this series made you more aware of the challanges and troubles normal (not trainer) persons find themselvs in?
And therefore you might be better able to adress them in future. Whereat Bree is nowere inexperieced with dogs and it seems to me she is very educated on the theoretical side, i belive beeing so close to the traing someone else does is a different and interesting point of view.
I think Veronica chose Bree
well the crate has to go. they are not needed would a human like it? she will be less anxious out of it. she will learn quicker...yes ive had dogs never used a crate and they were trained just fine and no anxiety
Dang just gonna throw Bree under the bus with that thumbnail #JusticeForBree
Pretty sure Bree designed the thumbnail😂😂🤣

😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Zak - what do you do when you dog is perfectly happy in their crate when you're still in the house somewhere but they can't see you, but bark when you leave the house? How the hell do you train them then without having to go back in?
I use kongs, make sure he's been well exercised and all the rest, but once he's finished his kong that's it, he's decided he wants out...
I'm having to leave him loose in the house when I go out at the moment and he's totally fine then (everything dog-proofed to the max), but ideally the only totally safe place is to be in his crate. Also, he has a good association with being in the crate (often voluntarily) outside of this specific me leaving the house scenario...
You're doing a great job to use Kongs and to make sure your boy has been exercised well. If he's content with you in the room, try stepping out of the room for several seconds (don't "push it" and wait for a long time). Don't make a big deal of it (no "Oh, baby, I'm just going to step outside of the room for a second. You'll be okay, baby, I love you"). Just step out of the room without saying anything or making any kind of "deal" about it. Come back in the room--again, without making a bid deal (no "See, baby, I wasn't gone long, was just in the other room, what good boy!"). If he barks when you leave the room, stay in the room, just walk further away. Gradually lengthen the time you're in the other room. One time step outside. Again, don't make a big deal. Stay outside for just a second or two. Then gradually lengthen the time you're actually out of the house. Take a short trip--maybe drive around the block (if you can afford to pay for the gas nowadays!!). Don't stay out too long when he's in the crate. Eventually he should get the idea that he's fine in his crate and you'll be home soon. You can also leave him with a longer-lasting chew toy he enjoys (that is safe for him to chew without supervision). Be sure you don't give "cues" that you're going to leave. Dogs are excellent at picking up on our cues--"when my person puts on that coat, my person is going to leave me!". Put the coat on without leaving. Don't "advertise" that you're going to leave (this is called "uncoupling the cues").
@@janhankins911 Thanks Jan! He is totally fine with the crate whenever I am in the house, both in and out of sight, for hours at a time. So I think I'll take your last bit of advice there and start leaving the house in small increments without signalling I'm leaving... If I can time it so he's still busy with his frozen kong when I get back we might be winning.. and build from there. It's when he finished the kong that he decides enough is enough and will bark endlessly.
He is a power chewer so I haven't found any other suitable food chews I can leave him with unsupervised to keep him occupied, even the toughest tendons are gone in 10mins max 🤦♂️ I see the turbo tendons in Zak's videos and I'm like yeah right, my dog will get through that like it's butter 🤣
@@janhankins911 also thanks so much for taking the time to type that out!
@@pixel.catcher You're welcome! I do like to try to help dogs and their people. I hope this will help!
First time ever commenting on a video. Absolutely love your channel, Zak. But this thumbnail is Soooo clickbaity.
Why has the lighting been so bad on your videos recently?
Would it be possible for you to send me a screenshot showing me an example? Zakgeorge@me.com
First
Should have bought the ring clicker. No fumbling around with the clicker.
Tired of the food ads bro. Money hungry. 🤦🏻♂️
I am 100% opposed to clickers. There's other ways to train your dog and what happens when you lose clicker ?
Then say “yes” . It’s not an issue. Dogs can learn both pretty easy! They are not that fickle. I really think it can be good for a person to strengthen their timing when communicating with her dog.
You can buy more than one, they aren't expensive. They are useful for teaching new behaviors. Why would someone be '100%' against?
Clicker training means marking the smaller steps in training. The clicker itself is just an easy tool. Why are you so against it?
I, on the other hand, love clickers. They are wonderful for teaching new behaviors to dogs, particularly dogs that are a little shyer and a little less confident. I use them whenever I teach a new behavior (no matter how "trained" my dogs are). They aren't expensive (I have a number of them around). And you certainly CAN teach the dog a word like "yes" or "super" or "good" or whatever to mean the same thing. A clicker is a little better because the sound is so distinctive and it is the same every single time. Our voice (no matter how much we try to make it) is never the same every single time. So losing a clicker really shouldn't be an issue. If you don't like them, you don't have to use them, but don't tell others who find them helpful that you're "100% opposed". Yes, there are other ways to train your dog and if you tell me you train your dog by shocking it with an electronic collar when it does something wrong, I'll tell you I"m "100% opposed" to that method of training a dog.
USE THEIR FOOD TO TRAIN? don’t have to waste money for treats. 🤦🏻♂️
Im sure you intended it to be humorous, but this is an obnoxious-sounding episode title.
Bree titled this episode. But I have changed it.
The title is so condescending. Ew!
My bad 😅 changed it!
