"The basic premise of the event is that hunters hunt rattlesnakes from the surrounding environment all across West Texas, and bring them into the roundup for the weekend. And during the roundup, these snakes are kept in a pit and then, one by one, beheaded and skinned in front of in front of audiences." - Elizabeth MeLampy Elizabeth MeLampy is a lawyer dedicated to animal rights and protection, and her passion for this work shines through in her latest book, Forget the Camel, the Madcap World of Animal Festivals and What They Say About Being Human . To research the book, Elizabeth traveled across the country, immersing herself in a wide range of animal festivals — from the Iditarod dog sled race to the rattlesnake roundup in Sweetwater, Texas. Elizabeth examines these festivals as revealing microcosms of our broader relationship with animals. Whether it's rattlesnake hunts, frog-jumping contests, ostrich races, or groundhog celebrations, these events reflect the ways humans use animals to express cultural identity, community pride, and historical traditions. Yet beneath the pageantry and excitement lies a deeper question: Is our fascination with these spectacles worth the toll it takes on the animals involved? With compassion and insight, Elizabeth invites readers to consider whether there’s a more ethical and empathetic way to honor our stories — one that respects both animals and the traditions they inspire. Please listen, share and read, Forget the Camel. It will be released on April 8th, 2025. https://apollopublishers.com/index.php/forget-the-camel/…

A Special Gratitude Salt Talks dedicated to my uncle and aunty, our one and only Commandant and Mamandant; Pastor and MummyPastor; Brigadier-General (rtd.) Jonah Adebamgbe and Mrs. Grace Busola Adefolalu
Today, Salt Talks about March, a month in her life that brings so much joy. And much sadness. How do we handle these seemingly seesaw moments of sadness and joy?
This episode of Salt Talk focusses on this amazing and deeply challenging (in a good way) book by Mrs Margaret O Oko. It’s almost like reading the Acts of the Apostles but the exploits take place in Nigeria and Poland. At the end of the day, we really have to face it: The walk of faith is not a #softlife. At least not the way the world defines it. God’s maths is not intellectual maths. When we have nothing, we still lack nothing. Because we have Christ. And everything minus Christ equals zero. Selah💛…

This is special PSA Salt Talks⭐️ The best time to start planning for retirement is your first day on your very first job. The second best time is before you hit 50. The third best time, if you are over 50, is NOW. Please DM Inyang Sami-Orungbe(The Retirement Planning Queen)(MCIPM) today. OR Reach out to Misan Eribo, the Financial Investment SME from Rand MFB that was on ground today. At the very least, equip yourself with information on the options available to you on how to diversify your savings and investment portfolio so it serves you the best. OR for information on AXAMansard’s International Health plan, please connect with Dr. Jadesola Idowu. Health care is vital in that evening season of life! OR If you want to learn more about how technology and digitalization can help your retirement journey and WHY we must embrace it, then DM Debisi Sami-Orungbe Don’t let this train leave you behind. OR If you want to put a will in place or a Trust or set up estate planning, then DM Stanbic IBTC’s team represented at the session by Emi Agaba-Oloja TEP Dear One Please. My point is this: If you do not have a plan for your life after retirement, please get in touch with Inyang today, not tomorrow. She will sit with you and help you determine what your own unique goals are and how to achieve them. I would actually suggest sitting with her first and then based on the plan you come up with, she can hook you up with all the other SMEs above.…

Salt shares her thoughts about her Sister, Sholly’s final post on Facebook. How Sholly’s Christmas greeting ‘Merry Everything and Happy Always’ now has a new meaning for her. NB. I recorded this last night and upon listening just now, it dawned on me that my charge to us might not be realistic. It might not be possible, while living, to intentionally share timeless messages. It’s only after one has passed on that this can be determined I think. I don’t know. 🤷 But I do know for a fact that if we are intentional about being kind in our deeds and gracious in our conversations, a part of us will live on after us in the hearts of people. That too, I believe is what being Timeless means.…

This is Salt’s response to her LBS’s recent ‘moment’ of angst. That moment (or many moments) when we just feel that this life is just one long meaningless continuum…. Because (if we are honest) these are moments we all experience from time to time, Salt is sharing it with you. What she has come to understand is THE ONLY antidote to these episodes. Hope you listen and share.…
