Sie hatte schon mehrfach die Aussage gehört, dass Hunde den sozialen Status eines fremden Artgenossen "erriechen" könnten. Was hat es damit auf sich? Haben Hunde überhaupt einen sozialen Status? Und was hat das mit Hierarchie zu tun?Diesen Fragen gehe ich in dieser Folge von Rund um Hund auf den Grund - und nehme dabei die wissenschaftlichen Erkenntnissen nicht nur von Familien- und Strassenhunden, sondern auch von Wölfen zu Hilfe.QUELLENBhalla, Shireen Jagriti, et al.

Tales from the TrunkEpisode 56: Best of the Trunk – Episode 37 with Lillian BoydHey everyone, Hilary here. Due to a combination of life things and poor planning on my part, there’s no new interview this time around, but I’d like to take this spooky month to highlight a great episode from the backlog with our composer and true horror ghoul, Lillian Boyd.
A few other things before we get to the episode:
This show is now on Bluesky at trunkcast.bsky.social, and I’m on there at hbbisenieks.bsky.social. Of the twitter-replacements, Bluesky seems to be the one where most of my writing friends have e...
2023-10-201h 14Tales from the TrunkEpisode 37: Lillian Boyd - ”Inside Job”It's my absolute delight, this time around, to welcome our very own composer, Lillian Boyd (@herelieslill), onto the show. Lillian reads her short-story-that-should-be-a-novella, "Inside Job" (cw: gore, skip forward 10:15 to avoid) before we just go off on an extended tangent about horror movies, noir, pulp, and being as thoroughly on our bullshit as is possible.
Things we mention in this episode:
Rank and Vile
Tetsuo the Iron Man

Total Movie RecallTMR 050 – Children of Men This week on Total Movie Recall, things get grim and a little too close to 2020 reality for comfort. Definitely don’t watch this movie if you’re fresh out of rehab, which Ryan can tell you all about. The future is bleak, but if it’s also as ruggedly handsome as Clive Owen is and has the greatest single-take of all time, it might not be so bad. This is also one of the greatest movies of all time, just to be clear about it. Children of Men (2006) d. Alfonso Cuarón S...
