Today we go back to our combative and abrasive roots with reptile expert and comedian Vinny Thomas. We talk about all aspects of the cold-blooded wonders, asking questions like: Are they capable of love? Do they dream? Can any of them be LGBTQ+? It's hard to say. Plus, we unpack 'what's the deal' with linen, a new dairy trend that America is gagging for, and how "dialectically" is the new "ultimately." Listen and learn!
