Rowan the Labradoodle keeps the morning greeting at the beach steps — greeted twice, and the parish departs fully welcomed — in the lead story, "THE MORNING, GREETED TWICE." Day two of Calder — the second course, measured — with the hammer weighed, the bench considered, and Ruby holding its color under pressure. All eighteen readings, with Calder starred on day two, plus the Tales (Ivy, Hazel, Fig, and Moxie), weather for Boston, Miami, Seattle, and Dublin, and the Shadow Game. The Police Report blotter, the featured report "The Puzzle, Solved Sideways" (Casper), and the Barketplace ticker and stories. Madame de Pamplemousse reads the editorial "The Second Greeting, Adopted," the letter from RUPERT the Poodle, Point and Counterpoint on greeting every stranger twice, Ask Bruno, Corrections, and the Editorial Policy. The Book Page reviews You Decided to Get a Labradoodle — FOUR PAWS. Bruno's Blog: "On the Dog Who Read Me First," with the moral and Born Today (Calder). Music: one minute of "Cello Makam Pulse" after Weather and the Game, and one minute of "Falling Leaves at the Ice Cliffs" before Bruno. Both are first airings in this podcast, drawn from the house instrumental pool under the November 2 fresh-music rule — the song-library pool is exhausted. The tipping disclosure (No. 3, British III) sits at MID, after the front-page block and before the Tales. Disclosure: The Daily Companion is narrated by AI-generated voices.
