A quick warning.
There are curse words that are unbeeped.
In today's episode of the show.
If you prefer a beeped version, you can find that at our website, thisamericanlife.org.
From WBEZ Chicago, it's this American Life.
I'm Lily Sullivan, sitting in for Ira Glass.
A while back, we got an email from a listener in a small town in Utah.
He wrote, it seems like half the town has a huge elementary school style crush on a local veterinarian.
And I wanted to know, could this be real?
So I flew to Utah and I went to the place people would know a local vet.
The dog park.
Hey, can I ask you guys a question?
I'm working on a radio story about a vet who works here in town named after Arts.
Yeah, like Arts, the hearts throb.
I thought it'd take me a long time to assess this.
It didn't.
I think different women in town thought.
He was very attractive.
That's what I heard.
He's very attractive, yes.
