Sara Rae & Gary Marshall, DVM
Welcome to "It Might Get Weird," the podcast where we dive into the journeys of veterinary professionals.
Your hosts are Dr. Gary Marshall and Sara Rae.
Gary has been a veterinarian for more than 35 years. Sara has been a veterinarian for zero years. That's about to change and that's why we're here.
Our main focus will be to follow Sara on adventures as a Washington State University class of 2028 veterinary student. We’ll be along for the ride as she encounters challenges, and celebrates triumphs during her 4 year commitment to become a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine.
Along the way, we’ll also interview super interesting individuals who have valuable stories to share about their personal and professional journeys.

In order to coordinate a time for Sara and Gary to record this episode, we find gary a bit rummy with this late night conversation. Fortunately, Sara drives the conversation to break down the process of applying to vet school. The AAVMC (American Association of Veterinary Medical Colleges) is the organization that manages the VMCAS (Veterinary Medical College Application Service).
As always, thanks for listening.

Gary and Sara share about their separate camping getaways, and then mostly talk about the structure of organized veterinary medicine and Gary's involvement in state and national veterinary medical associations. This may not be your jam, but it's good to learn new things. Maybe you're into crocheting or competitive cornhole! We're not into stuff like that, but would be happy to listen and learn more about your passions. If you choose to listen to this epsisode, thank you. We'd love your feedback.

In this episode, Gary and Sara cover some random stuff, but don't cover a lot of ground. They record during one of the few really hot days of a Seattle Summer, and you can tell that they are both elated, and a little lackadaisical because of it. No major complaints! The week was absolutely glorious. Vet school starts for Sara in just 4 short weeks. Please enjoy. Thanks for listening.

This episode continues with Dr. Crystal Boles, Dr. Christine Boles, Dr. Kirsten Ronngren as well as Sara and Gary. Our guests impart more wisdom to help Sara as she begins, and works her way through vet school. Common themes are mentoring, resilience, community and that it's unlikely to be exactly how you anticipate it will be (and that's OK). Thanks for listening.

In this episode, Sara shares about more of the animal experiences she's had. Gary shares about his experiences at the recent National Association for Black Veterinarians Conference. This leads to a conversation about Diversity, Equity and Inclusion in the Veterinary Medicine space. There is a very large anxiety about saying the wrong thing on this topic in a very public manner. The greatest fear is to have any of it come across as performative allyship. We would appreciate any and all feedback to help us be able to communicate the most clearly in the future. click on the messaging link from this podcast (if available in your app), or DM us on instagram.

S1 : E 41 - Special Guest Lauren Cabrera edition - before she starts vet school at WSU
It Might Get Weird: Journeys in Veterinary Medicine
03/18/25 • 37 min
Click here to text us your questions & comments.
This should probably be titled, "Wait... You did what?" episode. Or the "Gary seems shell-shocked". Gary is definitely not on his A-game here. It's probably because he had never met his amazing guest Nurse Practioner Lauren Cabrera before he hit the record button for his interview. It could have been because Sara wasn't present this time either. Sara was off the grid for spring break camping along the west coast somewhere (hopefully we'll hear about that soon).
Another reason that Gary was not quite on-point this week is because with each question he asked, he didn't seem to be able to process Lauren's amazing answers fast enough to be able to react and pivot the conversations. You do not want to miss this episode. Lauren's journey to this point - on the verge of starting vet school in the WSU CVM Class of '29 - is quite the ride.
We would truly love your ratings, reviews and pleas use the text link to give us your feedback and to let us know if we should follow up with Lauren once she's in school. Thanks for listening.
