On this episode, Ellie discusses the pair of Tsavo Lions who ate "very few humans" (very few is in the eye of the beholder, we suppose!) as well as their post mortem fate. Once again, the real fear is colonialism here on QFF. We know what we're about. Then, Abby discusses one of her favorite summer fruits, the watermelon. She discusses some true history, stereotypes associated with watermelons and some folklore surrounding them. Tangents include but are not limited to: Kovu from Lion King 2, Abby's staunch opinion on eggs, the perfect fruit salad, and many more.
