Listening to Beth's ending story was like watching the exorcist for me

2026-01-10 21:30:42 +0000 UTCWhen Will did the "You're going to go to Harvard Law" bit, I immediately had the awful thought (spoilers for a movie that is 30+ years old, but spoilers for Dead Poets Society) "wow, Francis is so Neil Perry pilled." (He is definitely not but that is what this podcast has done to my sense of humor)

2025-09-09 14:51:48 +0000 UTCOne of the dudes from the old Reply All podcast has a new solo podcast called Hyperfixed. He just did a 3 part series about cat FIP support groups, because the treatment was/is illegal or not approved by the FDA or something, so you had/have to go black market https://www.hyperfixedpod.com/listen/hyperfixed/the-cat-drug-black-market
Jesse Barbour
2025-08-31 11:51:24 +0000 UTCTw: suicide. I just wanted to pop in here and thank Beth for saying that Francis's actions should harm the party rather than help them. Ever since the movie it part 2 came out I've been haunted by the fact that in the movie one of the characters kills himself because he knows his friends will be better able to handle the monster without him. And the movie treats it like it was the right move. That's horrifying. That's like validating the voice in your head that whispers that people would be better off without you. It feels irresponsible

2025-07-11 02:40:51 +0000 UTCIdk if anyone else mentioned this already but if you need needles or syringes connect with a trans person they will most likely have some kind of supply you can use if stores won't sell you them. so glad the kitty is doing ok

2025-07-03 09:27:51 +0000 UTCI relate so deeply to your stress and panic FIP story-- after 3 months of daily shots, my kitty Zuko was cured and he's been kicking for a year and a half! Worst day of my life was driving to do black market drug deals with an old lady

2025-06-17 21:53:27 +0000 UTCThis is so insane to hear about FIP now because 4 months ago I had never heard of it or knew of the illness and sadly one of my cats ended up with it and we noticed it due to the exact same reason which was his eye sight. Bagheera just finished his treatment 2 weeks ago and is in remission - I promise it gets better but it is tough to begin with. Our cat lost his eye sight to begin with and has gained about 90% of his sight back

2025-06-10 03:31:32 +0000 UTCMan what a good cat mom, almost made me cry at work, hope he’s doing better.

2025-06-04 21:48:51 +0000 UTCI know Kitten Lady has posted a lot about FIP, I know a lot of cats who have made it so I’m hoping for the best! Also gay country-wise - try Mya Byrne!

2025-05-09 23:05:18 +0000 UTCI just went through that experience with my kitty who unfortunately didnt make it but reading the comments and hearing beths story makes me feel oddly more at peace knowing that im not alone. She was the cutest little kitty and I will never forget her and thank you for sharing your story beth!
Alyssa
2025-05-09 01:41:42 +0000 UTCI think that for a Cthulu system it's just gotta be constantly around the corner. It isn't pretty what happened with Francis, but it does fit the universe (given, it felt more like personal/relational issues than 'Cthulu madness'). I think they've shown how fun cycling through characters can be with KDM, and things do get stale when the characters are superheroes. I personally would like them to be more at risk, but, to your point, if Trudy were to just die in a car crash, it would feel pretty meaningless. It's up to them to frame it in a way that gives it meaning; that they can use the dollmaker's poison from her brain now, or that she was doing it to save her son, etc.

2025-04-29 06:40:06 +0000 UTCWe had gone through the same process with my cat (the wizard kitty in my picture) it was super hard since he still has so many years. He is good now, but the week of him not being himself was one of the hardest things to go through! Nothing but hopes for lil Kurby!
Omlette
2025-04-24 15:59:00 +0000 UTCAbout Beth's cat: her insta post about getting treatment for FIP made us get our cat checked out immediately, 2 weeks later of thousands of dollars, and tests, our cat got diagnosed with FIP. Her post literally saved our cat by introducing that terminology to us to take to our vet. We are 5 days into her 84 day treatment, hoping for the best.

sdlite
2025-04-20 20:54:37 +0000 UTCJust checked and looks like the last few treatments we did 15 mg/ml. I think a lot of people do 12 mg/ml though. The old numbers of 6-8 just aren’t high enough to avoid relapses.
Nate Ball
2025-04-19 21:48:23 +0000 UTCBeth I rescue cats have been through everything you’ve described multiple times. It’s fucking scary but it’s so so worth it. As someone who’s been through this numerous times the most important advice is that you treat them at a high enough dose. Our earlier treatments were at lower doses and relapsed, which meant we had to treat again at the higher dose. We’ve saved so many cats from FIP by going through the 12-week treatment cycle. We’ve sent thousands of dollars to China and had the meds shipped to us in fake makeup packaging. But it’s all worth it, all of the cats we have treated are alive and healthy, for some their treatment was years ago. You’re right though, the support groups are fantastic, as is the whole FIP community. Everyone is so willing to help. Thankfully we’re able to get the tablets pretty easily nowadays where I live, and our last FIP cat was treated with those and is doing great.

2025-04-19 18:26:36 +0000 UTCEverytime i think Francis is going too dark the attempts of the 'Screams' to help him get much worse and its hard to blame anthony for not being able to pull this kid out of a nosedive.
Byron Morris
2025-04-19 17:35:08 +0000 UTCUgh this freaking show is killing me in the best way. Last year I watched every single season of family guy, the year before I read “rich dad poor dad” AND all the books mentioned in Book Castle now I’ve gotta read all these damn Clancy novels. At least I always have something to do :)

2025-04-17 15:21:24 +0000 UTCOof. My heart skipped with Kirby. FIP is awful. Best wishes for his recovery.
Rat Iguina
2025-04-17 14:52:38 +0000 UTCBeth when you posted about Kirby having FIP on ig my heart broke for you but also I had so much hope! My cat is on his last two weeks of FIP treatment and he is doing so well! The support groups in my state helped save his life and give us time and his bloodwork shows he will be ok. I just wanted to give you some hope from a positive story that is happening at the same time as your sweet guy. He will make it through! 😻
CJ the wise
2025-04-17 12:27:13 +0000 UTCSending Kirby well wishes! You're an amazing cat mom for going through all that. Glad it's working out for you but also please be careful out there! Sounds like it was quite the ordeal
Kate+Cats
2025-04-17 12:22:51 +0000 UTCAnd here I thought petco was a bitch and a half having to sign up for their vetco shit in order to fulfill a prescription I had from my cat's vet for her special food.
Bearonavirus
2025-04-17 11:40:18 +0000 UTCBasically the same thing happened with my fiancé's cat. We didn't look into alternative routes tho. She was too tired and frail by that time.
Bearonavirus
2025-04-17 11:38:08 +0000 UTCI was reading recently about how feline medicine has actually seen a huge jump in recent years because up until recently there was just no research done into feline health, especially in the US. My vet diagnosed my cat with pre-kidney disease last year and prescribed special food, but a couple months ago she suddenly went downhill. After she got bloodwork done and I get a call from the vet saying that all they can do it put her down, her kidneys were failing. I just didnt understand how they couldn't do anything. But luckily I had found out about a cat kidney disease research group in Japan and I reached out and they responded with a detailed plan on how to try and save her. Those instructions literally saved my cats life. Yes she still has kidney disease, and yes she might eventually pass from it, but right now she is playing and happy, and like you said whatever more time I get with her is worth it. I am just shocked that none of what I did was even mentioned by the two local vets I consulted. tl;dr the feline health industry is terrible, especially in America. It's really, really behind in medical advances. Very best wishes for Kirby ♥️ you are amazing for going to such lengths for your furbaby.

Keira Jade
2025-04-16 17:30:26 +0000 UTCBeth, I completely feel for you. I don't have cats currently, but do have one of 4 dogs that got COPV (Canine Oral Papilloma Virus). Normally a very contagious condition that almost every dog naturally fights off. My poor boy went through surgery every 6-8 weeks to debulk these as they were filling his mouth and making it almost impossible to eat, bursting open, and bleeding. And your comment about how vets love you because of the tests, me too, so true. It took about a year and a half of surgery, consultations with multiple pet dermatologists, 4 experimental treatments, lab work/research from 3 different universities across the country, translating a study from Portuguese, and an import from the UK and Canada for other medications. In the end it was $37,000 and a physical fight with one vet suggesting I have him put down. He has fully recovered and is thriving. He is also now part of a textbook for vets that just recently published. I truly believe that he came to me because I would do anything to save him regardless. Kirby has the greatest cat mom that will do what it takes. Prayers and hopes are here for you and Kirby from Magnus and myself.

2025-04-16 17:22:40 +0000 UTCOmg when the cat story started I was SO worried, I was already tearing up, but that was such a better story then I expected. ❤️
Lizzy French
2025-04-16 17:08:54 +0000 UTCQuestion for Beth: are you really as single and horny as you say or is it more like a comedic angle/character you play? I'm a single cis-male, age-appropriate, employed, sane and happy to take you out to dinner for the story if not an actual attempt at romantic connection. Yes, I am for realz. No, I don't really expect a response, but romcoms have had worse beginnings.

hexcat
2025-04-16 16:00:26 +0000 UTCI thought for sure what was going to happen with Francis was he was going to hold himself hostage and try and bring the bisons away from the house
Patrick Morris
2025-04-16 15:32:23 +0000 UTCThis would not have been helpful in Kirby’s case, but for anyone who might need to know, especially HRT folks: You don’t have to have a license or business address to buy from online medical supply wholesalers. The needles you get there are also usually better quality than prescription.
Miles Mitchell 🏳️⚧️
2025-04-16 15:28:35 +0000 UTCAlso to add, in case your vet didn't share. You did nothing to cause this. FIP is a difficult virus. You are a great owner, no matter what. Don't let the Internet trolls or fear mongering make you think any differently.

2025-04-16 15:24:52 +0000 UTCGod Beth. Not everyone could be able to do that so I'm glad it all worked out for you. That sounds terrifying as hell. Really hope he stays getting better!
Darryl Holiday II
2025-04-16 15:24:06 +0000 UTCHey Beth, I had a cat with FIP and I am here for you friend. It's really tough. Sending you so much love right now, I'm so glad you have some options for him❤️❤️❤️. Hoping he continues to improve.

2025-04-16 13:02:07 +0000 UTCDamn, Beth is like the third DND podcaster I know of who's had to go on the FIP journey. At this point there should be a "support group" just for y'all (also, am I reading into it too much, or was the vet intentionally giving resources to find a dealer by giving out that support group info)

Risotto
2025-04-16 09:15:22 +0000 UTCI just had a Session Zero for a new campaign I'll DM where I checked in on what the Player's thoughts are on PC Death. We all agreed that there should be consequences for 3 failed Death Saving Throws, but most said they likely won't want their characters to actually die. I also love the narrative that comes with "A character could die at any point no matter if it is fitting for a story." but I also think it's 100% legit to no want the character you spend so much love and care and thoughts for to die. (At least for a long-term game that isn't a podcast xD)
streetdreams
2025-04-16 04:41:00 +0000 UTCI’m so sorry, Beth! We lost our beloved Manny to FIP back in 2014, way before meds were even an option. I’m SO glad we have meds now and that Kirby is getting them. Wishing him a speedy and smooth recovery from this horrible illness.
Sam S.
2025-04-16 04:18:57 +0000 UTCAfter last week’s episode, I’m looking forward to some, for lack of a better term, after care this Peach Pit. Certainly it’ll be a bright and happy and funny episode. … Goddamnit. I’m glad Kirby is Ok though. 💛💛💛

2025-04-16 03:06:09 +0000 UTCBeth, so glad you got meds for Kirby!! I want you to know that my baby girl Raya had wet FIP & was so so sick... but she is 3 years old now & you would never know she was sick! please have hope! She was sick prior to FDA approval & i got my meds from a company out of Canada. It was injections for 84 days (sounds kind of like what youre doing) & the transformation was insane. She went from her belly being so swollen & passing out cause she was struggling to breath to eating heartily and trying to play again within a week. I'm rooting for you guys!!! Kirby is in great hands!!
Samantha Stevens
2025-04-16 02:49:13 +0000 UTCGenuine question — will the podcast ever recover from Beth’s sick “never get laid” burn? Or do they have to put out a casting call for new players?

Squirrelly Girlie the not very girlie squirrel
2025-04-16 00:55:17 +0000 UTCSaying that 3rd/3.5 edition DnD had less power creep than 5e is genuinely insane to me haha. Minmaxing and power gaming in 5e compared to 3.5 is the coughing baby vs hydrogen bomb matchup scenario; the power you could amass as higher level characters in 3.5 was truly staggering, and there were literally thousands of ways to do it because of the library’s worth of supplemental materials.
