Bonus Episode: Giant Lemurs

The Epstein Files and Paleontology

This episode is a little different than our normal content. There are several paleontologists mentioned in the latest release of the Epstein files, and the official response to that has been... underwhelming. In this episode we tell you about the facts within the files, the paleo people identified, some important context, and the reasons that events like this concern us and negatively affect paleontology as a field. CW: sexual assault, sexual harassment, Epstein's convictions for sexual assault of a minor, PTSD symptoms, eugenics

Bonus: Turtle Mouth Madness

At least one soft-shelled turtle pees mostly out of its mouth.

Images and a whole season of full-length exclusive episodes are on Patreon [https://www.patreon.com/posts/132280836]! CW: Urine, dissection of sharks, experimentation on turtles , teasing of vegans, pre-eclampsia and birth, turtles just being generally bad

Bonus Episode: Giant Lemurs

Happy holidays! Here’s a bonus episode we’re releasing to the public as a holiday gift for you, all about Amy’s favorite: Lemurs! And specifically, how they used to be enormous and maybe interested in crushing birds. Art (and a whole season worth of exclusive episodes) is available on our Patreon [https://www.patreon.com/posts/exclusive-giant-108331151]. CW: Cursing, discussion of the crushing of said bird, the general concept of Aye-Ayes.

Megatherium the Stabber

From carnivorous armadillos to the serial stabbing experiments of a self-described 70 kg male with no special training in any sporting discipline but who seems to have a very vicious cat, this episode is a wild, wild ride. But would you truly expect any different from xenarthrans? CW: Cursing, drug testing, the vegan police, a man stabbing meat and facing off against cats, sloth baby murder

Freaky Fingers, the Return

Evolution continues to be disgusting as we dive into the multipurpose functionality of Aye Aye and Striped Possum fingers.  CW: Boogers, Aye Ayes just generally, cursing, and somehow puppy play (you know, the kink that Google apparently thinks Meaghan has)
