Query:
Great Pet Care is working with Purina to develop testimonial
videos for a new, highly scientific gut-health test for pets
called PetQCheck.
We're looking for pet owners who are willing to take the test
(free of charge) and participate in a video shoot (in their
homes, backyards, neighborhoods) with their pets to talk about
their experience and the test results.
PetQCheck looks at a pet's microbiome to see if your dog or cat
has the right amount of good bacteria and it can identify
potential deficiencies that need to be addressed.
We may ask participants to film some UGC footage on phones or
GoPros to show unboxing the products and some at-home footage of
pets. We'll also be looking to do a professional day of filming,
likely late in October (or early November) at your convenience.
We'll provide a $500 gift card (undetermined at the moment, but
likely to an online pet store) to participants as a thank you
for working with us.
If you are interested in participating and would like more
details, please send an email with some information about you
including your name, age, location, and some info about your pet
(dog/cat, breed if known, age of pet) and their digestive issues
and what you're experiencing. We'll get back to you with more
information.
Requirements:
Any dog or cat parent in the Tri-state area (near Philadelphia,
New York, New Jersey, or nearby) who has noticed some digestive
issues in their pet. This could include diarrhea, loose stools,
unusually smelly poop, bad gas, the inability to lose weight,
etc.
Must be comfortable going through the testing process, filming a
bit of UGC footage, and willing to do an on-camera interview if
selected.

Covering the use of Rogaine (minoxidil) to grow a
beard/moustache if you have a hard time growing one.
Looking to understand: - Is using minoxidil to grow a beard a
safe thing to do?
- How does it work?
- What cautions do you need to take (especially using it around
your nose and mouth ... are there any toxicity issues)?
- How long can/should you use it for?
- Is it as effective among all ethnicities? Any ethnicities have
a harder time growing a beard than others?
- What kind of side effects are there, and how common are they?
(For instance, it can cause low blood pressure, but how likely
is that? If irritation happens to 1 in 100 guys and low blood
pressure to 1 in 10,000, that's worth knowing).
- Any other tips? (For example, is the foam variation safer?)

A recent Harris Poll found that despite images of college
parties, Gen Z is taking COVID-19 seriously - perhaps more
seriously than Baby Boomers and older adults. We'd like to ask
experts:
1. Do you think these polls' findings are true - why or why not?
2. If they are true, what psychological factors might influence
this dynamic of a younger generation taking the pandemic more
seriously? 3. What impact might this dynamic have on society in
general? 4. Is it possible that most younger adults take the
COVID-19 pandemic seriously and partiers seen in the news the
exception to the rule... or is that younger adults think
COVID-19 seriously but gather together anyway because they feel
invincible?
