We would like to humbly announce that we are ✨ready ✨ to accept that Golden Globe for Podcasting despite them not being particularly interested!!! We won’t let that stop us 💫

This week, we are reaching deep into the mail bag. Strangely, all animal-themed (ani-mail bag??). You know us so well! You know who we wish knew us a little less? A problematic little organization that is a homonym of our favorite flatbread. So sorry, Wes, we love those animals but we are not on board with the vibes. Stick to Chimp Crazy babe!

But to cleanse our meaty palates, we get a truly lovely update from listener Elise on her bird friends, a grey catbird (aka Anthony Cosby-Knowles) and a cardinal (dba Guy Fieri) and we have such exciting news…there is a verrry special newcomer, an opossum who is yet to be named! What do you think about the names we suggested? Got any ideas of your own? Toggle over to our Spotify poll or write in with your own on the discord over at patreon.com/textmebackpod.

And our last piece of mail was sent to Meagan’s personal email? No thank you! If you’re pitching us to be a podcast guest to talk about your tarantula antics and criminal charges please use the podcast gmail at [email protected] thank youuuuu! 🕷️
