The Chatty Vets Podcast
Meet The Chatty Vets — Charlotte & Brendan — two UK small-animal vets navigating the wild, wonderful, and occasionally ridiculous world of veterinary practice. Expect monthly news, clinical cases, odd consult moments, and the kind of humour only someone who’s survived a chaotic consult room can appreciate.
We release three episodes a month: two fortnightly updates on what’s happening across UK vet med, plus a bonus episode that might be a clinical deep-dive, a research paper chat, or an excuse to talk to interesting people who also chose this brilliant, baffling profession.
If you work in vet med and want learning, honesty, and a few laughs to get you through the shift, you’ll feel right at home.
The Chatty Vets Podcast
Episode 2 - Two Week Takedown. Dreaded CMA report, no more iv fluids & blinking for angry cats!
Episode 2: January 2026 Two-Week Takedown
It’s our first full episode 🎉 and we’re kicking things off with the January 2026 two-week takedown.
In this episode, Brendan and Charlotte chat about festive toxicities, questionable foreign bodies, the CMA report and what it could mean for the profession, dreaded dentals, and the joys and challenges of dealing with particularly feisty feline patients.
As always, this is a relaxed, honest chat between two practising vets—covering the news, the clinical reality, and the things that have been filling up our consult rooms and WhatsApp chats over the last couple of weeks.
If you want to stay up to date, feel seen after a busy on-call, and have a bit of a laugh along the way, this one’s well worth a listen.
