Category: Lifestyle and Fitness

Email: query-bsbu@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: Animal Wellness Magazine

Deadline: 2:00 AM EST - 21 January

Query:

We're looking at the impact dog poop and used cat litter have on
the environment. Why is responsible pet waste disposal
important as a "green" pet owner? We are searching for solutions
to the problem in terms of products like compostable poop bags,
earth-friendly cat litter and pet waste disposal services. What
tips do you have for yard clean up? Can you flush cat litter
and/or dog poop? What are other ways to dispose of it safely for
both the environment, the pets, and people? We have covered
various kinds of litter so tell why your chosen one is best.

Requirements:

I'm looking for sources from product manufacturers as well as
dog and cat people who deal with this on a daily basis. What are
your best tips? What was a disaster? Photos may be needed but
later. HARO strips them from your reply although links will
work. Cute faces will lighten the tone of the article! Thanks

4) Summary: Looking for music therapists to explain why we listen to songs on repeat.

Name: Carolyn Steber Bustle

Category: Lifestyle and Fitness

Email: query-bsda@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: Bustle

Deadline: 5:00 PM EST - 14 January

Query:

I'm working on an article for Bustle called "Why You Can't Stop
Listening To Drivers License, According To A Music Therapist."

The song "Drivers License" by Olivia Rodrigo is about a breakup
and the feelings that occur afterward -- loneliness, confusion,
etc. It's extremely popular, especially among younger people,
who are saying listening to it is almost "addicting."

I'd love to know why songs like this are so easy to listen to on
repeat!

If you are a music therapist, please see my questions below.

1. Why are certain songs "addicting"? Does it have to do with
the message they send? The chords? The fact they allow you to
process certain feelings? Please share your thoughts.

2. Is it helpful to listen to songs on repeat, especially if
you're processing an emotion, like sadness after a breakup?

3. If you've heard this particular song, why do you think it's
so addicting? Is there anything special about it?

Thank you!
