Epidsode 26: The Interrupted Intro with Mark Klassen
After a long hiatus, Wild Tails is finally back!
This episode didn't go quite as planned. I sat down to record a simple introduction for the show's return when my longtime friend Mark Klassen interrupted me. What started as a quick intro quickly turned into an entire episode filled with stories, laughs, random tangents, and the kind of conversation that can only happen between friends who've known each other for years.
There are no guests this time—just Mark and me catching up, sharing memories, and easing Wild Tails back into action. Consider this the unofficial kickoff to a new chapter of the podcast.
Thanks for sticking around during the break. It's good to be back.

🎙️ In this episode of Wild Tails, I sit down with my longtime friend Erin Brandon, who I’ve known since our high school days. Erin is a proud Army veteran who served in both Iraq and Afghanistan, and he brings a unique perspective shaped by his years in service. We dive into his journey after the military, where he discovered a new mission: training his dogs to become service animals.
From the battlefield to building bonds with his canine companions, Erin shares heartfelt stories about resilience, healing, and the incredible role dogs can play in a veteran’s life.
