Does China Know What Furry Is? + More Feat. Yuho and Leola [FABP E20]

This episode officially marks our second time interviewing Chinese furs. Introducing Leola and Yuho! Yuho is a collie and has been in the fandom since 2018.

We feel that China is a country that not very many of us in the West know about, so let’s take the paws of our tour guides and see the country together!
