In this episode, we dive into the real-life accounts of animals who seemed to sense death coming long before any human could. There’s Oscar the Cat, who curled up beside nursing home patients in Rhode Island—and was almost never wrong about who was about to die. Dogs who jolted their owners awake moments before fatal heart attacks. Pets who discovered hidden cancers, years before doctors could. And the science (and mystery) behind how they know.
We want you to request an episode like this for other topics—because these conversations aren’t just about facts, they’re about living through them.
