Jill Rappaport On “The Secret Life of Pets 2,” Comcast, Long-Term Success & Her Upcoming Projects

With The Secret Life of Pets 2 hitting theaters this month, Comcast and Wakefield Research conducted a survey and found that 84 percent of Americans check their security cameras to make sure their pets aren’t doing anything “naughty,” much like Max in the hit movie. Additionally, 66 percent of people use their cameras to look at their pets as a “pick me up” during the workday.

Jill Rappaport — award-winning animal advocate and best-selling author — spoke to me about simple tips to keep pets healthy and safe during the warmer months. She also opened up about Long Island and her career as a journalist within our interview, as recorded on June 6, 2019.
