Ep# 341 A Very Special Interview w/ Derek Walter
Wednesday, 24 September, 2025

Animals have a way of taking us places in life we never expected. That's exactly what happened to my guest Derek Walter when a "micro pig" entered his life and soon became a 650 lb. pig with the intelligence of a small child. Esther The Wonder Pig became an internet sensation as her dads shared her 11 year life's journey with the world. The world is better having had Esther in it and the same goes for her dad Derek. Listen in as he tells funny stories about Esther, what the "Esther Effect" was, how she changed veterinary medicine in Ontario and what palliative care looked like for Esther. And stick around right to the end as I reveal what lies ahead for this podcast. To join my email list, go to www.juliesquires.net.
