Fur, Friendship, and Farewells: Lessons from Man’s Best Friend

Welcome to "People, Politics and Pork: Keep it Spinning!" Dive into the whirlwind world of Triple P with hosts Newell Clark and Greg Webb, two lifelong friends with a knack for storytelling and a love for all things intriguing.

 

From the heart of Lexington, North Carolina, Mayor Newell Clark brings a progressive spirit and a wealth of experience in politics and community leadership. His boundless energy and fresh perspective promise engaging discussions on everything from local initiatives to statewide policies.

 

Meanwhile, Greg Webb, our modern-day Forrest Gump, adds a dash of Southern charm and a touch of showbiz flair. From Hollywood to North Alabama and back again, Greg's journey through acting, writing, and managing a flea market brings a unique blend of wit and wisdom to the mic.

 

This week’s episode kicks off Season 2 with a heartfelt tribute to the relationships we share with our pets—especially dogs. Greg and Newell reflect on the joys and heartbreak of pet ownership, highlighted by Webb’s moving story about the loss of his beloved dog, Cooper. The conversation explores the lessons pets teach us about presence, loyalty, and unconditional love, and how those lessons shape who we are.

 

They also touch on the emotional weight of grief, the humanizing effect of caring for animals, and the unique connection between dogs and their people. Along the way, listeners get a glimpse into a recent music fundraiser Greg attended, and a lighthearted debate about which dog might best suit a U.S. president.
