## The Verhulstjes: Dog Drama and Unexpected Fame
Welcome back to the show! Today we’re diving into the world of reality TV with a look at “De Verhulstjes,” a popular Belgian series. Joining us is media insider and, coincidentally, one of the stars of the show, Marie Verhulst. Marie, thank you for being here.
**Marie:** Thanks for having me!
**Host:** So, “De Verhulstjes” offers a glimpse into your family life, but there’s been some talk about a particular incident involving a mischievous canine. Can you tell us more about it?
**Marie:** [laughs] Oh yes, that little rascal! He definitely made things interesting. It involved a ”visionary kokertje” (a special kind of dog toy), my husband Gert, and a lot of unexpected events. Let’s just say it’s a classic example of how unpredictable life can be, even with all the planning in the world. [[1](https://open.spotify.com/episode/7K1IRA4lXPzR5txKffG7gv)]
