Welcome to Talking Couch Potatoes, the podcast that’s all about greyhounds and the people who love them.
From Perth, Western Australia, we’re shining a spotlight on the world of greyhound advocacy.
We’ll hear from advocates, political groups, experts and volunteers across the country, sharing what’s happening in their states.
And we’re not afraid to tackle the big conversations—opening up dialogue across Australia to discuss the public’s views on dog racing and welfare in WA.
Whether you’re a greyhound lover, a curious listener, or an advocate for change, this is the podcast for you.
🎧 This special episode flips the script – the kids are asking the questions!
Join Layla, Luka, Sofia, Adam, and Hannah – five passionate young greyhound advocates who are already speaking out in their schools and communities. They quiz us on everything from racing injuries and rehoming challenges to live baiting and why people gamble on dogs in the first place.
Their questions are thoughtful, honest, and full of heart – and they prove that you're never too young to stand up for greyhounds as pets, not bets. 💚🐾
This episode also marks our first ever video podcast – stay tuned for the YouTube release!
