"The basic premise of the event is that hunters hunt rattlesnakes from the surrounding environment all across West Texas, and bring them into the roundup for the weekend. And during the roundup, these snakes are kept in a pit and then, one by one, beheaded and skinned in front of in front of audiences." - Elizabeth MeLampy Elizabeth MeLampy is a lawyer dedicated to animal rights and protection, and her passion for this work shines through in her latest book, Forget the Camel, the Madcap World of Animal Festivals and What They Say About Being Human . To research the book, Elizabeth traveled across the country, immersing herself in a wide range of animal festivals — from the Iditarod dog sled race to the rattlesnake roundup in Sweetwater, Texas. Elizabeth examines these festivals as revealing microcosms of our broader relationship with animals. Whether it's rattlesnake hunts, frog-jumping contests, ostrich races, or groundhog celebrations, these events reflect the ways humans use animals to express cultural identity, community pride, and historical traditions. Yet beneath the pageantry and excitement lies a deeper question: Is our fascination with these spectacles worth the toll it takes on the animals involved? With compassion and insight, Elizabeth invites readers to consider whether there’s a more ethical and empathetic way to honor our stories — one that respects both animals and the traditions they inspire. Please listen, share and read, Forget the Camel. It will be released on April 8th, 2025. https://apollopublishers.com/index.php/forget-the-camel/…

This is it. This is the fiftieth and final episode of The Anxious Men Podcast and we’re getting retrospective, reminiscing on episodes gone by. There’s laughs, rambles and some moments where the both of us got a little choked up talking on the podcast for the final time. In our Christmas Dinner portion of a finale, we discuss our favourite episodes and moments from the podcast. We also recollect our reasons for doing the podcast and whether or not we have any regrets or feelings as to whether we succeeded in our goals for launching the show. There's also a very brief run-in from Adam's girlfriend, fifty episodes and a cat later. It might be our last episode, but it's a damn fine and fun one to go out on. Both of us would like to say a huge thank you to anyone who’s listened to us. It’s been a real pleasure producing and sharing the podcast with you all. If we had glasses full of port or wine, we'd raise them to all of you!…

In this week's episode, we discuss Nick getting his blue belt in BJJ, Adam's hatred of Christmas shopping and the mutual decision to end the podcast. Wait, what!? That's right; our fiftieth episode (out next week) will be our last and we're both okay with that. We discuss the end of the podcast and our reasons behind the decision. We’d love to hear from anyone who’s listened over the last year and a bit, be it new listeners or diehard fans (we know who you are and yes, you’re the only one that matters). Get in touch with us on anxiousmenpodcast@gmail.com and try your best to make us cry on our last ever episode.…
