🚨 NEW YEAR, NEW ERA 🚨 The Dumb AF Podcast is BACK for 2025! 🎉 But hold onto your dumb facts, because there's a plot twist...

Kiel and I are still bumping uglies (thanks for asking 😉), but the man is BUSY. He’s off conquering new projects, which means I’m on the hunt for a new co-host to keep me (and you, my loyal listeners) company.

So who’s stepping up to the mic first? Here’s a hint: 🏉 Former NRL star, once tackled a shark (okay, maybe just a tough forward), and has a premiership ring… on his finger, not in his trophy case. 🤔

Any guesses? Stay tuned! 🎙️🔥

We sit down with dog behaviour specialist Nathan Williams, who’s here to shake up everything you thought you knew about dog training. Forget what you’ve heard about treats, stress-free playtime, or steering clear of stressful situations—Nathan’s approach involves not playing with your dog, skipping the snack bribes, and even taking a page out of the horse whisperer’s playbook. 🐴

Whether your fur baby’s a barker, a chewer, or just a little too attached, Nathan’s got some wild advice that just might make you see your four-legged friend in a whole new way. Prepare for a few laughs, a few “aha” moments, and maybe a moment of awkward eye contact with your dog as you wonder… is it really you? 😱

Is there really no such thing as a "bad dog," only a bad owner? 🐕

In the next episode of The , we chat with dog behaviour specialist Nathan Williams, whose journey into understanding canine psychology was born out of deep loss and determination.

After conventional obedience training failed with his own dog, Junior, and ended in heartbreak, Nathan set out on a path of self-discovery. His unique insights stem not only from formal training but from learning directly from animals, including a transformative experience with a renowned horse whisperer. 🐴

Now, with thousands of successful cases under his belt, Nathan shares what it truly means to connect with your dog on a deeper level. ✨

Tune in to hear Nathan’s powerful story, and how you can become the best leader for your dog. 🎙 Out Saturday! – your pup will thank you! 🐶❤️
