Caffeinators, Vet Tech Cafe is Australian for podcast. If you're vintage like us, you may remember that Foster's beer commercial and when you hear this episode, it'll make more sense. We're headed back down under to check in again with Cat Walker! You may know her as Radio Vet Nurse, but she's launched a veterinary mediation business as she has a law background, and as you know, we always want to talk to those that are blazing their own path! This was a fascinating discussion about mediation and what that looks like and how it applies to our field, and we also covered a lot of other ground as well. You don't want to miss this one-if nothing else, for her accent!

Caffeinators, as we close out 2025 we take a look into the industry side of the profession with Vicky Ograin. Vicky is a long time RVT who left clinical practice over 20 years ago to work for Hill's Pet Nutrition. She's also since obtained a VTS(Nutrition) and an MBA. She's currently a Scientific Communication Senior Specialist within the US Professional Veterinary Affairs Department. It's a very unique role and we talk a lot about the demand for credentialed technicians in these larger companies because of their clinical experience. We also talk all things nutrition and we cover a lot of other ground as well. We hope you had a great 2025 and we look forward to seeing you at the Vet Tech Cafe and Vet Tech Taproom in 2026! Happy New Year!
