In this week's episode, we explain why furries tip artists in the furry fandom! Tipping for service is a standard practice in the United States, and tipping artists for their work is analogous to that idea. But tipping is not universal around the world, and for members of the fandom outside of the United States, it may seem like a foreign concept. And even if it is generally agreed upon that it is a good idea to tip, there aren't many good explanations on why  furries tip, much less so how much that tip should be. So in this episode, we take a look at the history and reasoning behind tipping for service, or in this case, the service of making art, as well as how much that tip should be, in order to properly show appreciation to the ever-important artists in the furry fandom!
