    My favorite podcast. I love learning who is who in the industry. Vet Tech Cafe keeps me updated on what the best vet techs are up to and how they got there. Turns out, going from OJT to RVT is not that unusual after all! I am in good company. A very inspirational podcast!

I think it's just being able to do all the things.
