• 2:13
  Speaker 2: We live in Vermont, Okay. Calm down forty seven for
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: the high on Sunday with rain and a little bit
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: of snow both in the fort during the day in
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: the forecast. Yeah, forty seven. Last night was the best.
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: And I said to Sherilyn last night and like, probably
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: the best or the best lightning show we've ever seen.
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: And I'm like, I don't think it's probably. I think
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: it's the best period. What was Tyler Jankowski saying, Like
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: over two thousand lightning strikes. It was continuous, the sky
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: was just lit up. It was fascinating. I loved the
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: Lightning Show. Loved the hailstorm, which didn't last that long,
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: maybe I don't know, half an hour, forty five minutes,
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: something like that, but just incredible. To be out in
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: the barn with the metal roof unbelievable. And to see
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: the pictures that I saw just in my short time
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: last night on social media amazing and just out my
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: neck of the woods. Tim Jarvis, I'm gonna be sharing
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: up his video that he shot in his yard, which
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: was just amazing. We're just you know, and I know
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: I've got a couple of friends down south, and I
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: know that they're like, calm down, JD. It's not that
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: big of a deal. We get hail here all the time.
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: Up here, we just don't. We don't hear the words
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: tornadoes a lot. When we get hail. It might be,
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: you know, just one or two for a short period
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: of time. But last night was pretty significant. And that was,
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: as one listener put it, last night, a good old
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: April storm. Hearing Vermont this morning, we got some really
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: cool stuff going on. Gee's out, Potters, Angels is in.
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: I want to start this morning by just briefly saying
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: what happened last night for me, just on the early
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: side of yesterday and my experience last night with Downstreet
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: Housing and Community Development based right here in Barry. They
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: had their annual meeting last night and invited me and
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: I went and I had such a nice time, and
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: I wanted to start out this morning by saying, I
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: don't know how many of you know Kevin Ellis. A
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: lot of people, well pretty much everybody in the crowd,
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: not even pretty much last night does no Kevin Ellis,
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: And I can't wait for him to come on the air.
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: We've been working on this for a long time, but
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: for years, Kevin Ellis has been one of the most
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: trusted voices covering the State House and real issues facing
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: for Honors, and one issue that keeps rising to the
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: top is the housing crisis. Last night, it was so
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: much more than just a meeting. It was a celebration, frankly,
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: not only for the great work that Kevin has accomplished
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: over the years, but, as he would suggest, a celebration
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: of what all at Downstreet have done in just a
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: year's time. As Kevin reminded us last night, building and
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: managing affordable housing and helping first time home buyers is
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: really only a small part of the mission over at
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: Downstreet and making sure that people don't fall through the
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: cracks when life gets tough is the real meat of it,
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: because in Vermont right now, housing isn't just a policy discussion.
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: It's personal. And if anybody knows that, it's Kevin Ellis
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: and I just again I can't wait to have him
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: on the air here real soon, not only to talk
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: about what a rock star is, but also the exciting
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: launch of his new podcast which is about to take flight,
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: and he's going to tell you all about it. I
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: won't do it. I will let him spell the beans.
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: So stay tuned for Kevin Ellis coming to air it
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: out soon. I'll be sure to let you know the
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: date on that the minute I find out. Last night
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: I wrote on Facebook, and if you missed it, I
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: just want to just echo that real quick here before
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: we get to Potter's Angels, because it's really important. Many
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: of you know my friend Alice Goltz. She has mild
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: intellectual and developmental disabilities. She is one of the most
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: beautiful human beings that I have ever met on the planet.
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: And as I wrote last night, eighteen years ago, when
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: the state of Vermont decided for Alice that she was
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: unfit to be a mother and entered her hospital room
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: to take her baby from her. She started the journey
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: where she is today, and this is what I wrote
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: last night, advocating for those people like her to protect
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: their rights to make sure something like this doesn't happen
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: to them. On May ninth, Alice is going to be
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: returning as a participant in the Best Buddies International Friendship Walk,
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: which is going to be in New Hampshire to support
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: inclusion for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. The event's
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: going to be at the State House and conquered not
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: just a walk, it is in experience to give great visibility,
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: attention and opportunity for folks like Alice. And the money
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: raised is going to go to a lot of different programs,
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: and I listed off some of them last night, and
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: I even wrote that I was barely scratching the surface.
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: She's going to be in here again on the twenty
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: seventh to sit on the couch, tell her story and
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: talk about her walk that's coming up on May ninth.
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: Alice has only raised thirty dollars of her goal of
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: one hundred dollars, so I put up the link last night.
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: All you have to do is click on it and
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: take it from there. And please, if you can help
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: out Alice, I am going to make sure by the
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: end of the day today that she has at least
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: hit her one hundred dollars goal, at the very least.
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: So more on that. I'll put up the link here
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: and again, and we'll be promoting this heavily. Taking you
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: to the Curvy couch this morning, where I have not
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: only two folks from Potters Angels, but also two beautiful dogs.

• 15:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you really do. Amazing animals and beautiful lots of
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: heart strings there, but also unbelievable community involvement that got
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: going on Heaven. That's key, Yeah, that's key. You guys
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: aren't just in a building, doors closed. You're really infiltrating
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: yourself out into the community.
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Well, it takes a community to do the work
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: we do.
• 15:59
  Speaker 4: This is you know, we have a whole army of
• 16:02
  Speaker 4: volunteers that do what we do. Like I said, even
• 16:06
  Speaker 4: the social media team. We have an adoption team. I mean,
• 16:10
  Speaker 4: this is not something a small group of people can achieve.
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: It takes a lot of people.
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: How many animals do you have right now for adoption?
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: I a good question. I don't know how many we've
• 16:24
  Speaker 3: got right now. It just keeps me. Yeah many.
• 16:28
  Speaker 4: That's the constant influx and outflux of animals, dogs, cats, cats, Okay, yeah, yeah.
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: It's it's pretty consistent.
• 16:40
  Speaker 4: Just in this last week, for example, just at the
• 16:44
  Speaker 4: facility we we operate for pods in and Barry Vermont
• 16:48
  Speaker 4: as well, We've had five different dogs in and out
• 16:53
  Speaker 4: in the past week coming in for rescue. These are
• 16:57
  Speaker 4: local surrenders and moving into foster and getting the medical
• 17:02
  Speaker 4: care they need.
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: There's a lot here. Yeah, there's a lot going on.
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: There is a lot of follow up, a lot of
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: vetting to make sure that these animals are going to
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: good homes. Last time you were in here, we were
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: talking about some really funky stuff going on on a
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: state level when it comes to animals.
• 17:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we're still fighting that. We're still finding that.
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, and you know we should we should have
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: you back at some point and take a dive on that.
• 17:39
  Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, yeah.
• 17:40
  Speaker 4: Right now, we're pushing the bill H five seven eight,
• 17:45
  Speaker 4: and that's addressing some of the issues we're facing in
• 17:51
  Speaker 4: the legislature.
• 17:53
  Speaker 3: So if they could address the seizure issue, that would
• 17:58
  Speaker 3: be that would be a huge victory for us.
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 18:05
  Speaker 4: We've we've done testimony at the state House over the
• 18:09
  Speaker 4: past few months.
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: And well received.
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think.
• 18:14
  Speaker 4: So it's still moving forward. Hopefully, you know, they won't
• 18:18
  Speaker 4: chop it all just shit like they do.
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I hope not. I hope not. One of the
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: great things that you're you're doing is you do an
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: annual raffle drawing fundraiser.
• 18:34
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah, so well, we annually we do our
• 18:38
  Speaker 4: silent auction, and we had a couple of uh leftover
• 18:43
  Speaker 4: things from a bidder that did not come through with
• 18:48
  Speaker 4: their payment, so we decided to do to raffle them
• 18:51
  Speaker 4: off instead. And it's this fundraiser is incredibly important because
• 18:57
  Speaker 4: rescuing local dogs costs so much much money, Yeah, just
• 19:02
  Speaker 4: to provide them with basic vegcare, and a lot of
• 19:05
  Speaker 4: them come in with additional issues that need to be
• 19:07
  Speaker 4: addressed prior to adoption. So the fundraisers we do, you know,
• 19:12
  Speaker 4: that's money we need to keep help in our community.
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Heather Bent from Potters Angels. If you're just joining
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: us this morning on a beautiful Friday morning, and the
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: suns could be shining today, why do we call it
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: the rest and remix it up for the pups?
• 19:31
  Speaker 4: Why do we call it We have to ask our
• 19:35
  Speaker 4: social media team that they do the creative stuff.
• 19:38
  Speaker 3: I just do the background, dirty stuff.
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah. But you've got a couple of organizations here, a
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: couple of companies that have stepped up and said yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 19:55
  Speaker 4: No, these are wonderful, wonderful donations. We've got Vinyl one
• 20:01
  Speaker 4: four hours of DJ service. It is limited to Chittenhan County.
• 20:07
  Speaker 4: And then but then we've got the is it two
• 20:10
  Speaker 4: Nights Day at the FanHouse and Barnard, which is a
• 20:14
  Speaker 4: beautiful location, and that's over a five hundred dollars value
• 20:19
  Speaker 4: for that alone. In the DJ service is a four
• 20:22
  Speaker 4: hundred dollars value. So yeah, our community really rocked this
• 20:26
  Speaker 4: year with the donations to our silent auction.
• 20:29
  Speaker 3: It's it's awesome.
• 20:31
  Speaker 4: And we really rely heavily on our community because we
• 20:34
  Speaker 4: get no state funding or support to help what's happening locally.
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: You got to it totally organically, right, Yeah, whis tough.
• 20:45
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it takes a lot of work out of time.
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: I'm glad to reach out to listen. Anytime you guys
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: are are going to do something like this, let you
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: know as far ahead of time as you can. I'll
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: do everything and anything I can to promote and help.
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: Thank you, get it out to the masses. This is
• 21:04
  Speaker 2: great stuff, don't We're not going to say this too loudly,
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: but it looks like Brad's finally got it figured out
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: over there.
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: Brad, he's calmed down.
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: I'm talking about Brad calming down. Yeah, and this one,
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: I mean, this is you're killing me here, Heather. That's
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: just like I'm imagining myself on my own couch, just
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: sitting there watching TV Pett and the Dog. I mean,
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: what what the companionship is just killing I know?
• 21:45
  Speaker 4: These two are just so sweet and we're honestly all
• 21:51
  Speaker 4: the dogs we save.
• 21:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah, really, they're They're incredible.
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: Where do they? Where did they come from?
• 21:59
  Speaker 3: These you are surrendered from? Chelsea? I don't uh.
• 22:05
  Speaker 4: The It was kind of a convoluted story where the
• 22:08
  Speaker 4: person that surrendered them to us, they were given to them,
• 22:13
  Speaker 4: They were given to them last week and they couldn't
• 22:16
  Speaker 4: keep them, so they reached out to animal control, who
• 22:20
  Speaker 4: contacted us and we took them in.
• 22:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: You know, good though that someone might realize, hey, this,
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: maybe I've gotten myself in a little bit over exactly.
• 22:34
  Speaker 3: There's nothing wrong with that. I'd rather have that.
• 22:36
  Speaker 4: And now we've got, you know, these two very desirable
• 22:40
  Speaker 4: breeds and we're gonna newter them, which is incredibly important
• 22:44
  Speaker 4: for their saferee homemen, because these guys would be a
• 22:48
  Speaker 4: target for people that wanted to breed for money. Yeah,
• 22:52
  Speaker 4: and because that could yeah, poor life for them. So wow,
• 22:58
  Speaker 4: So yeah, it's definitely better that they reached out to
• 23:01
  Speaker 4: rescue to take them in so that we can get
• 23:03
  Speaker 4: them fully vetted prior to rehoming them.
• 23:06
  Speaker 3: And we have a.
• 23:08
  Speaker 4: Screening process for adoptive homes, so we'll make sure they
• 23:12
  Speaker 4: get to a good home that can care for them
• 23:14
  Speaker 4: and afford the groom and needs and everything else.
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: What's the We're going to do the raffle drawing here
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: live in just a minute. But what are some of
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: the basic prerequisites to being considered as.
• 23:31
  Speaker 3: For an adopter?
• 23:33
  Speaker 4: So the very first step is just filling out an
• 23:36
  Speaker 4: adoption application on our website.
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: Then we have our.
• 23:39
  Speaker 4: Adoption team that screens the application. So I would if
• 23:45
  Speaker 4: you're applying to adopt, I think it's important to reach
• 23:48
  Speaker 4: out to your references that you use and let them
• 23:51
  Speaker 4: know so that they respond quickly, because our adoption team
• 23:55
  Speaker 4: moves pretty rapidly through the process as long as the
• 23:59
  Speaker 4: people get back to him.
• 24:01
  Speaker 3: Yeah, in a timely manner. And this is Jack and Jamie.
• 24:05
  Speaker 4: If you are interested in adopting them, that would be
• 24:07
  Speaker 4: who you apply for.
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: Which one's Jack? How do you guys this one?
• 24:13
  Speaker 3: I think Jack.
• 24:14
  Speaker 4: I think Jack is a darker, a little bit smaller.
• 24:18
  Speaker 4: Jamie is a gray I might be wrong, all right.
• 24:24
  Speaker 4: I know we've got them collar coded at the facility,
• 24:27
