Introduction & First Impressions

00:00:01
Speaker
Hey, Christina. Hey, Sarah. Question. What's the first thing people notice when we meet them? Our loud laughs. Well, wait, did you mean our ginger hair? Our hair, our hair. It's so it's really important that our hair actually looks good. That's where love song beauty comes in. They're vegan, cruelty free hair and body products keeps us looking like fiery redheads.
00:00:34
Speaker
That means there's not a ginger animal heart in the process. So if you want your hair to stand out, even if you're not a redhead, you can use the code ginger for a 10% discount.

That's ginger to save 10% at lovesongbeauty.com. This is our podcast song. It isn't very long.
00:01:00
Speaker
Hi, Sarah. Hi, Christina. Thanks everyone for tuning in to Laughing with Ginger's. The podcast for two feisty red heads with loud loud sure crazy stories play games and spread silliness and joy. That little lovely songstress over there who
00:01:19
Speaker
sprain doesn't buffer while she's trying to say the word ginger not plural during an advertisement is my partner in crime and the laughing with Ginger's podcast longest intro for her ever yet to date. We'll see if I can beat it next week. Christina Curry. Oh my god, that is out of it. Our little residential ginger. I don't know what dog were you which dog from part one.
00:01:45
Speaker
I think I'm pretty much a French bulldog. Yeah, probably, probably. And my co-hosts of Laughing with Ginger's. Oh, boy. Well, get ready to laugh because today is part two of dogs and their people. Dogs and their humans. Dogs and their humans. I mean, people is also a good descriptor of us.
00:02:13
Speaker
That's true. We are actually also people and humans. And some

Understanding 'Tape Delay' & Generational Gaps

00:02:19
Speaker
of us. And also dogs. Yes, and also dogs. My brain is buffering. I always call it tape delay when I'm waking up hungover and everything seems like it's slow-moing. And then I realize, you know what? Younger generations aren't going to know what tape delay means.
00:02:43
Speaker
That's true. That's true. I mean, yeah, I mean, they still call it delay. Like when I taught TV production, I taught it as delay, I think like a 45 second delay. Yeah, I remember there was like, Oh, you know, I taught during the Super Bowl where there was the boob situation with Janet Jackson, which we don't have to go into the whole
00:03:10
Speaker
thing about that, but I had to explain that the fact that that aired was surprising. And did they I was like, did they burn their delay before they got to that point? All right. Who knows? Tough to tell. Was it pan? Was it not? Who knows? I mean, anything is possible. Truly, anything is possible. Yeah. Yeah. I feel like she is a border collie.
00:03:39
Speaker
Jada Jackson. Yeah. She could jump fences, I bet, just with from just standing still. I can see it. Yeah. What kind of dog are you? I don't know. I don't know. I feel like. I get very excited. Whatever dog gets really excited and maybe he's a little.
00:04:08
Speaker
Then I'm also like, I love sitting and relaxing and lounging too. I feel like Cluzo, my dog is both of our spirit animals. I think so too. I could see that totally happening.

Dog Stories & Holiday Traditions

00:04:24
Speaker
I get on neighborhood watch. I get my old dog, Nacho, the pug got so excited one time that a little poop nugget came out when he was doing the zoomies.
00:04:39
Speaker
That's excitement right there of a little poop nugget flies out of you. Yeah, that's definitely excitement. Oh, my God. You left all control at that point. Oh, God. Well, did you know? Yeah, no, I didn't. What? That 75% of people sign their dog's name on their holiday cards.
00:05:05
Speaker
Oh, that's so cute. Do you do that, Sarah? It depends on who it's to and also it kind of depends on if they addressed it to him. Like, so Cluzo actually gets
00:05:21
Speaker
This is the weirdest thing that I'm admitting in public. Maybe not the weirdest thing I'm admitting in public, actually. It is a very weird thing, though. I mean, fearing jumping on fish is the weirdest. Oh, my God, I forgot. I don't know what episode that is, you guys, but Sarah admitted to us in public out loud to everyone to hear. She has this irrational, oh, it's irrational fears episode.
00:05:48
Speaker
of jumping off of a boat into the water and landing on a fish. Yeah. When we were just on our most recent dive trip, I had to do that roll into the water and I did it and I wasn't afraid. I was like, oh my God, I finally understand the logic behind water displacement and fish. Finally.
00:06:16
Speaker
No fish were harmed in the making of that time. Thank God, I know I was worried. But anyway, go on for your second weirdest New Maker admitting outlet. I'm so curious what this is. Oh, God, I don't even remember what I was going to say. It was something about Clue on Christmas cards. Oh, Cluzo gets fan mail.
00:06:45
Speaker
Oh, that is adorable.
00:06:51
Speaker
Like he gets more holiday cards than us by far. Oh my God. Oh my God. Shout out to Ross Mandy who sent him a gift that is actually under my chair right now. Oh my God. She's a big fan of the show. I guess I talk about him enough that like people know him from my podcast because there's this Laughing with Ginger's obviously and then also the wedding dish. I talk about him on there too and
00:07:20
Speaker
I mean, he is freaking adorable. He gets who can't be a fan of him. I mean, he gets way more male than us. He got male today. Oh, my God. It's the only letter that came today was to close out. It's so cute. You should be signing his name on all kinds of Christmas cards. Why are you not?
00:07:47
Speaker
He's the most important thing in your household. I sign his name if we get a card from somebody that addresses it to him. If it's my cousin that doesn't know him and isn't into dogs or anything, then I'm not signing his name. That's weird. She'll just be like, Sarah, is this what happens when you don't have kids?
00:08:14
Speaker
Spoiler. Yes, it is. Uh-huh. Yep, yep, yep. Paw print. Oh, I love it. I love it. Oh, God. OK, so here we go. If you are an intellectual and you have investigative thoughts, maybe you like challenges and new topics,
00:08:45
Speaker
And you don't just find the answer to three-fourths, you immerse yourself in the subject.

Dog Personalities & Matching Breeds

00:08:50
Speaker
I don't know why it said that. Is that like a normal thing? Like, I don't know. It literally is three-fourths. I don't know. Oh, because it's, okay, yeah. You immerse yourself entirely instead of three-quarters of the way. Yeah, I get it now. I don't think it's like a specific number saying. It could have been two-fifths. Yeah, it could have.
00:09:14
Speaker
Or eight sixteens or something. That's just one half. Oh, yeah, it is. You only half immerse yourself. I like how you chose one that I could quickly do the bath of. I know. Thank you very much. Fast math. Anyway.
00:09:35
Speaker
Suffice to say, you love learning new things and you can talk at links on topics that you're passionate about and alone time does not bother you. The dog personality type that suits you can be aloof and pensive, almost like a cat. We already kind of covered that. Yeah. Is this going to be a Shiba Inu? It's not, but they should have probably switched them. I know. It's feeling like it, but you know.
00:10:02
Speaker
Okay. So, uh, the dog personalities that are smart, seemingly indifferent and enjoy intimate companionship with someone they chose. This is a Shiba. It is 10,000% a Shiba. And you also might enjoy a more energetic breed that is smart, self-sufficient and happy with alone time.
00:10:27
Speaker
I feel like they got this wrong. But if you want to take a guess at what kind of dog these qualities would match well with, go for it. I'm trying to think of one that is Sheba like that is not a Sheba. I mean, there's one that
00:10:47
Speaker
comes from China also. I was going to say, is it the Chinese crested? That's the only other one that I could think would be. There's a Chinese Sharpay, which who knew there was a Chinese version of a Sharpay? I don't know. Are they loners though? I'm not sure they're- A chow chow. They have a chow here. I feel like chows are pretty loners and can be aloof.
00:11:17
Speaker
Yeah, they can do with their purple tongues. They can definitely be aloof. They can also be aggressive. There are some breed bands on them in places, which is, I mean, generally speaking, I blame owners for dog behavior, but I'm just stating a fact, not agreeing. Yeah. We are not qualified dog breeders or scientists or psychologists of any type.
00:11:48
Speaker
Okay, so they have Greyhounds here too and Jack Russell Terriers. I feel like Jack Russell Terriers are friendly, but maybe not. Well, okay, not to throw any dog under the bus. We love all dogs here, guys. Stella. Stella, our friend Kelly's dog. Oh, okay, yeah. She is the only Jack Russell I've ever met that is a loner.
00:12:14
Speaker
Maybe that could be a little bit of a type. I could buy it because I've met Stella, but she's the only one. They make apologies for her because of it, so I feel like it's not a normal thing. Shout out to our girl, Kelly Carlin. Stella. It's a really cute dog name.
00:12:41
Speaker
She, I have a good story for you about her.
00:12:45
Speaker
I mean, I can tell you now if you want. I mean, if not now, when? OK, fine. I'll tell it fast. So Kelly and Bob, her husband woke up. So just for reference, Kelly is Kelly Carlin is a writer and actress and performer. You probably know who I'm talking about now that I've said this. So this isn't just Christina and I talking about a friend. It's someone you also might know. She just did the George Carlin documentary.

Famous Dogs & Dreaming Patterns

00:13:14
Speaker
She won an Emmy.
00:13:15
Speaker
Anyway. She got out. Hello, Emmy. Yes, I'm super proud of her. So anyway, when she was at my house the other day, she was telling me that like the week before a rat had gotten into the house and it came out of the closet when Bob opened it in the morning and Stella was like, just like, doo doo doo doo doo. And they're like, that's like a primary purpose of a joke.
00:13:45
Speaker
They're rat terriers. So she was like, Stella, get it, get it. She's like yelling at Stella like, Stella. Oh my god. This went on for hours. The rat ended up like they tried to lock it in the bathroom. It got out of the bathroom. They tried to lock it in the laundry room. It got out of the laundry room. And then finally, at the very end of the day, I mean, we're talking like six hours later. I mean, I'm guessing. Stella finally was like, wait, there's a rat in here?
00:14:15
Speaker
Oh, no. Oh, God. And she's like. We've bred the primary purpose out of them. So Stella might be going blind and nose deaf or no smell free or or rat rat blind. Or she's just lazy and she doesn't want the job. She's like, no, thanks. I'm good here.
00:14:45
Speaker
Those are gross. They carry diseases. I'm out. I'm out, guys. Bye. They can survive an apocalypse. I can't survive without a meal. I know. That a human provides. Oh, God. Speaking of, I don't know where this transition is going. I would like a meal, a rat.
00:15:15
Speaker
Actually, so dogs actually dream, but puppies and senior dogs dream more frequently than adult dogs. Oh, that's so cute. I can tell that they dream like when they're like, you know, rough, like rough, rough in their sleep and their little paws are going so cute. Oh, and speaking of winning an Emmy again, shout out to Kelly Rinton, the famous German Shepherd was nominated for an Academy Award.
00:15:45
Speaker
Oh, really? Plus him. That's so cute. What about Lassie? I feel like Lassie is more known than Rin Tin Tin. And Toto. Oh, yeah. They had to rename Toto was a girl and they had to rename Toto to be Toto.
00:16:04
Speaker
from the original name. I don't remember what it was. It was something like Daisy. But she was so recognizable that they ended up just changing her name. And now she has a giant cemetery plot in a human cemetery in LA.
00:16:22
Speaker
You can go visit the statue of Toto on Toto's grave. Whoa, that's crazy. This fact not sponsored by the American Kennel Society. Sponsored by Sarah's brain. Shit, Sarah knows. All right, let me give you another one. All right.
00:16:48
Speaker
Okay, this is for all you people out there that are loyal and trusting and security oriented. So you are a faithful friend who believes in the virtue and the goodness of those you care about.
00:17:04
Speaker
You work well with others and are happy to do your part in group projects. You don't mind labels and are happy to strongly identify with whatever political party, religious group, or social cause that you're supporting. The best dog match for you will be good natured, dependable, loyal, outgoing, and curious. What do you think is the dogs that match that quality?
00:17:31
Speaker
Now I want to say French Bulldog because of the way you just did the thing with your hand and your face. I did that because Pug is in here. Ah, they are very similar. Yeah, they are. Actually, I would probably put a French Bulldog in here too. And they have Huskies in here, Siberian Huskies. Really? Yeah, so cute. I don't know. Yeah, I think they're good nature. They seem so sweet.
00:18:00
Speaker
They sing. Oh, they're so beautiful. I feel like I've seen videos where they're just like, you know, doing their howling thing. I mean, I think it's singing. Yeah, yeah, I love it. Most people might identify it as howling. So cute. They're funny. They're funny little stinkers. All right. Do you have any more facts for us?
00:18:28
Speaker
I sure do. Dogs curl up in a ball when sleeping to protect their organs, a holdover from their days in the wild when they were vulnerable to predator attacks.
00:18:45
Speaker
Oh, wow.

Dog Behavior & Sleeping Habits

00:18:47
Speaker
Interesting. So they're a bunch of different dog sleeping styles, but the one where they sleep on their back like this. Yeah, with their legs in the air. Yeah, they talk about how that would never be done by a wolf or like a wild dog. Yeah, that's only a French bulldog or a pug or the one that can't make it in the wild. Yeah.
00:19:15
Speaker
Pomeranian. That's all of the wild bread right out of it. Yeah, exactly. Beagle's definitely, my friends at Beagle does that. He'll roll over and just be like, but my belly. Cluzo loves to do that too, but not if he can bounce on his little make-believe trampoline and try to get Auntie Christina.
00:19:40
Speaker
I know. Oh my God. Pogo stick. Okay. All you adventurous, enthusiastic types out there. This is for you. You're easily excited about new people, new things, new ideas. You might be a jack of many trades and a master of none because you quickly move from one new passion to another. You enjoy new experiences and have boundless energy.
00:20:09
Speaker
Your ideal dog is playful, affectionate, smart, happy, and curious. What do you think, Sarah? What do you think is energy level? I think it's a pretty, you know, it's a pretty excitable energy level, but not cray cray. Hmm. Hmm. Hmm.
00:20:32
Speaker
Hmm. These are like little dogs. And I'm guessing you already maybe probably were going that direction. I was. I asked about the energy level because I was initially thinking it could be like a pulley. Hmm. But that is like a way high energy dog. Yeah. Yes. OK. I can give you a clue. It does start with a P, one of them.
00:21:02
Speaker
Well, I was going to guess Pomeranian. Yeah, ding, ding, ding. Those little fluff balls. They also have Corgis in here and Dotson's and Teddy Roosevelt Terrier. I've never heard of that. There's a statue in DC to his dog. Really? He must be like. It's not a dog friendly memorial.
00:21:34
Speaker
That's kind of funny. It's one of the only ones that's not dog. Okay, I think that they should make an exception for that. Come on. Sometimes might want to meet their hero. I mean, yeah. That's really funny. Yeah.
00:21:54
Speaker
Yeah, I can see like the Pomeranians or the corgis being very like playful and happy and curious. Corgis are actually super smart too. I love their little butts. Oh my gosh, they're little fluffy butts. They're wiggle butts. Yeah, yeah, they're so cute.
00:22:15
Speaker
They are a funny, funny dog. They crack me up. I have a thing for long back short leg dogs. I just love them and they come with a slew of medical problems. Yeah. So do the smooshy face ones and I love them. I know, I know.
00:22:38
Speaker
They're just so funny. Doxins actually have the highest attack numbers of all dogs. They attack humans? What? They're like little ankle biters. They bite more than the smaller dogs. This is a very common misconception and I'm speaking out of my ass here right now because I literally know only
00:23:06
Speaker
probably a very bare minimum. But smaller dogs tend to be more aggressive because I mean, people don't train them as well as big dogs. It's just the bite isn't as bad. Yeah. And they look goofy being aggressive. Yes. Like, oh my God, Lennox.
00:23:26
Speaker
The cat is now licking the microphone. Christina is trying to speak into. I think he's like, what is this thing? Yum, yum. And his his tail is now blocking her entire face. Oh, he is like one curious cat. Like, you'll put a box out and he is like immediately on it. Like, what is this thing? Let me sit in it on it. Let me move it around. Let me play with it. He likes Christina, too.
00:23:56
Speaker
Yes, he does. Yes, he does. We need to do a kitty episode. He's like, what is all this dog talk? What the hell? We did a whole ginger cats episode. I know we did. Lennox, calm down. He's not a ginger cat. He's gray. That's not our fault. That's not our fault. That's your mom and dad's fault, Lennox. There is such a thing as kitty hair, die Lennox.
00:24:22
Speaker
Um, did you know that dogs are not colorblind that they see colors in just a different spectrum?

Fun Facts About Dogs

00:24:30
Speaker
Oh, no, I didn't. Yeah, so it's, they can definitely see blue and yellow. But then they can see other colors in a different like light spectrum than what we can see them.
00:24:43
Speaker
How do they figure this out? How do they know this stuff? It's crazy. I have learned so many weird facts about dogs in the past two weeks. Accidentally. But also all puppies are born deaf. What? Oh my gosh. Their ears must not develop right away. That's crazy.
00:25:11
Speaker
That's so weird. It's not weird. Yeah, it's really weird. All right, I have one more for you. Okay. Okay, this is for all you peaceful, easygoing, non-confrontational types. Chihuahua. Nope. That dog bites you more than any other dog. So that's actually what I thought had the highest bite rate.
00:25:39
Speaker
I've been bitten by chihuahuas more than anything.
00:25:44
Speaker
But anyway, no, no, definitely not at Chihuahua. Okay. You are a go with the flow type who would prefer if everyone just got along. It's not hard for you to find joy in the world around you, and you're generally easy to please. Conflict exhausts you, and so you strive to avoid it in all your relationships. Your perfect dog match is loving and loyal, passionate, charismatic, social, and is attuned to people's needs and emotions.
00:26:14
Speaker
What kind of dog do you think matches that? Oh my God. I feel like this could be, I mean, attuned to people's needs and emotions. It's got to be a smart dog, which could be, I would say, some sort of collie would pop into my brain on that because they are very smart dogs. I know, but they can be jerks.
00:26:43
Speaker
I mean, anything can be a jerk. Not a golden retriever. They probably could be. I mean, I'm sure there's some out there, but in general, like golden retriever, and literally they list all the retriever, like flat coat retriever.
00:27:01
Speaker
Chesapeake Bay Retriever. Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever. What about Newfoundland? Is that on this list too? It's not. It could totally be on that list. There's a Labrador Retriever. Oh, a Cocker Spaniels on here. Oh. I could see that. They are so sweet.
00:27:25
Speaker
All dogs are also sweet. I know. I know it's true. All dogs are sweet. I had a therapist who had two cocker spaniels as therapy dogs. So you'd be in session and they would just climb and like lounge on you or sniff you. But she trained them to never lick. So they just got really close and like breathed on you. And like it's two of them like taking turns breathing on you. Super duper close but they never licked you.
00:27:53
Speaker
Mine has, he now has a gigantic lab, like huge, huge lab. And he firmly believes that he is a lap dog for me. He's like 80, 90 pounds. And apparently he doesn't lap dog anyone else. But he sits in my lap and insists, and then he sits where he leans onto my face with his neck.
00:28:25
Speaker
We love dogs. Send us your dog pictures, everyone. I want to see them say, oh, it's so cute. Do you want to send us out with one last fact, Sarah? Sure. When dogs kick backward after they go to the bathroom, it's not to cover it up, but to mark their territory using the scent glands in their feet.
00:28:52
Speaker
What? I had no idea. Oh, my God. They have scent glands in their feet. What the fuck? Isn't that why cats make biscuits? I have no idea why they make biscuits. I think so. It's so cute when they do that. Our cat, Khaleesi, does it all the time. It's so sweet. She just like sits there and makes biscuits. It's like it's very soothing.
00:29:21
Speaker
I mean, she's got to pay the rent somehow. I know. Pay it back. She's opened up the biscuit factory. She's just wondering why you haven't started selling them yet. I know. It bears such great biscuits. Where's the marketing, Christina? Where is the marketing? Where's my website?
