Take a group of people who have kicked around the veterinary space for a few minutes, toss them in a ZOOM room and see what they have to say. The discussion can lead to interesting places of discovery. When we mean unfiltered it is deciding a topic 10 to 20 minutes before we push the record button, skip the editing and upload it online. These are our opinions on the topic at hand that we voted on as the focus of the conversation. We encourage you to listen with an open mind and join in the discussion with your comments on wherever it is posted.
