Quotes

“My wife and I have known each other since we were little children. We were friends before we got together.”

“I think social media in this generation of television versus like even 10 years ago, the ability to connect with your fan base is on another level.”

“Through that process, we saw a lot of people just very interested in Dr. Pol. And we have a huge international following all across the world, Brazil, Italy, Belgium. We started seeing a lot of people responding from there. We started seeing people from the United States and Canada getting into the videos that we’re producing.”

“I just wanted to be able to produce more content for people. So we decided to start a YouTube page called Dr. Pol Presents, because it will have a host of content. Some with Dr. Pol, or myself, some friends of Dr. Pol.”

“Working in feature films is hard, but nowadays it’s [even more] cost prohibitive. It’s difficult to become a self starter in feature films, but in reality show you need a camera and you need a subject. Who’s good? So it was something that we could actually do and pick up a camera and go out and do.”

“I said to my friends, the person I know who’s the biggest larger than life character that I’ve ever met is my own father. And I said, he has his veterinary practice and this is what he did. And the more I would tell stories about that, the more they’re like, yeah. Yeah. I think that could be really great.”

“Our show is very different because everyone says to us, Oh, well, your show is very authentic. It doesn’t feel produced. It doesn’t feel scripted it’s because it’s not.”

“my main job on the show is obviously as a veterinary consultant, I probably know more about veterinary medicine than any of the other producers on the show. So I’m constantly answering questions and bringing people up to speed on different things that they have about veterinary medicine.”
