Got something to say to this podcast? Send a voicemail, and you might hear yourself on the next episode! The Daily Companion — Audio Edition No. 27, for Sunday, November 1, 2026. Walter the Giant Schnauzer holds the Sunday hearing at the gate — the lead story, "THE HEARING, SELECTIVELY KEPT," opens the paper and this edition. Day twenty of Bryor — the last lamp, kept — with the wheel turning tonight and Calder opening November 2. All eighteen readings, plus the Tales (Harriet, Maude, Cora, and Agnes), weather for London, Paris, and Toronto, and the Door Patience game. Sunday departments: the Dog Park Recap, the Treat Report (The Dog Bar, 2300 Central Avenue, St. Petersburg, FL), the Sunday Blues, and the Sunday Joke Box. The Police Report blotter, the featured report "The Gate, Admitted on Merit" (Victor), and the Barketplace ticker and stories. Madame de Pamplemousse reads the editorial "Hearing Is a Choice.", the letter from PRUDENCE the Schnauzer, Point and Counterpoint on answering every call, Ask Bruno, Corrections, and the Editorial Policy. The Book Page reviews You Decided to Get a Giant Schnauzer — FIVE PAWS. Bruno's Blog: "On the Puddle, Assessed," with the moral and Born Today. Music: one minute of "The Velvet Corridor" after the readings, and one minute of "Nocturne Elevator" before Bruno. Both are repeat airings under the owner's October 15 clearance — the never-aired song pool is exhausted, and No. 28 needs an owner ruling on the pool. The tipping disclosure (No. 1, British I) sits at OPEN, after the introduction and before the late news. Disclosure: The Daily Companion is narrated by AI-generated voices.
