"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/…

Alex und Danny. Wir haben eine Ostalgie, die wir selbst nicht erlebt haben und nur aus Erzählungen kennen. Der Osten prägt, aber wie? Ob Schulgarten, Softeis oder SERO - sie gehörten zu unserem Alltag. Wir sind Beide knapp vor der Wende und dem World Wide Web geboren, in einem neuen Deutschland aufgewachsen und im Westen gelandet. Wir stellen regelmäßig die Frage, wie der Osten unseren Blickwinkel auf die Welt von heute ausrichtet. Dabei schlagen wir eine Brücke von Kleinigkeiten im früheren Alltag auf das große Ganze von heute und morgen. Nicht selten wird es kurios und fördert Überraschendes zutage. Denn Alex ist ein Fischkopp und Danny eine Thüringer Bratwurst. Ostkinder 80/82 - ein Podcast über drüben.
