Format
The format of each episode is divided between segments discussed by the hosts and their guests. Segments include "hero dogs" and "dog tech." Originally, the show featured a segment called "Mutt Minute" wherein a host is assigned the task of educating the audience on a dog breed in under a minute.[3] Starting in episode 143,[4] this segment is replaced with "My Mutt Minute", where listeners submit a one-minute voice recording about their own dogs.
Guests
Guests have included Veronica Belmont, Julie Ann Emery, Lesli Margherita, Lin-Manuel Miranda, John Roberts, Alison Rosen, Jesse Thorn, Noël Wells, and Anne Wheaton.[2][5][6]
