Cricket Protein for Dogs, Carbon Paw Print
A company called Jiminy's is marketing cricket-based protein for dogs to reduce their "carbon paw print." The advertisement claims that the 36 billion pounds of traditional animal protein consumed by US dogs is unsustainable and that insect protein is a more humane alternative.
The show concluded with a "Dogs are People 2" segment featuring Jiminy's, a company producing dog food from cricket protein. The marketing emphasizes reducing a pet's "carbon paw print" by switching from traditional beef or chicken to more sustainable insect-based proteins. The hosts awarded this segment the "Clip of the Day" for its focus on the "Great Reset" themes in the pet industry.
Using a book titled "Why You Say It" by Webbe Garrison, the hosts explore the origins of various American idioms and phrases submitted by listeners. They discuss the etymology of "high horse," "Jiminy Crickets," and "deader than Kelsey's nuts." The segment aims to identify "cool" old phrases that should be reintroduced into modern conversation while rejecting clichés like "children should be seen and not heard."
