    What we thought of Anaconda & The Devil Wears Prada 2 | Episode 133

    This episode is part reptile rant, part movie review, and fully opinionated. We’re sharing our thoughts on the new Anaconda movie and breaking down all the wild stereotypes and misinformation it pushes about anacondas and large snakes in general. From exaggerated behavior to the classic “giant man-eating monster snake” trope, we talk about what the movie gets wrong, why these portrayals matter, and how they shape public perception of reptiles. Then we switch gears completely and review The Devil Wears Prada 2… which, unlike the snake movie, we absolutely loved. We talk favorite moments, characters, fashion, and why it somehow managed to live up to the hype.

    Rescuing reptiles with Jessica's Animal Friends | Episode 132

    In this episode, we sit down with Jessica from Jessica’s Animal Friends to talk about what it’s really like running a rescue for disabled reptiles and exotic animals while sharing the journey online. Jessica opens up about the reality of rescue work—the incredibly rewarding moments, the emotional challenges, and the heartbreaking losses that come with caring for animals that need extra support. We talk about the impact social media has had on her mission and what keeps her going through the difficult moments. And of course, we also get into what it’s like dating as a reptile girlie—because finding someone who understands your life full of rescue animals, vet visits, and reptile rooms is definitely an experience.

    Weird things you'll find in bioactive reptile enclosures | Episode 131

In this episode, we dive into all the weird and unexpected things you can find living inside a bioactive reptile setup—from mystery mushrooms and wood mites to surprise bugs and everything in between.

    We’re swapping stories from the week, from getting a random trinket gifted to us by a crow (yes, really), to an unforgettable moment at the vet involving an emu pooping in the lobby.

    Reptile Tips for Teens (When You Can’t Have One Yet) | Episode 128

    Thinking about getting a reptile but stuck living under your parents’ rules? In this episode, we dive into practical tips for teenagers who are passionate about reptiles but can’t quite bring one home yet. From ways to stay involved in the hobby (without owning a pet) to building knowledge and preparing for the future—we’ve got you covered. Then we switch gears into another round of “Are You the Type of Girl?” where we debate a surprisingly heated question: are you the kind of person who waits until your tank is basically on empty… or do you fill up early and never risk it? Expect some very real (and slightly chaotic) stories about running out of gas and what that says about you.

    Breeding Green Anacondas with MegaConda! | Episode 126

    This week, we’re joined by Meghan from Megaconda, a true reptile girly making waves in the hobby with her incredible work breeding green anacondas. We dive into Meghan’s origin story — how she got started in reptiles, what drew her to one of the world’s most misunderstood giant snakes, and how she built her place in the reptile community. She walks us through the realities of breeding green anacondas, from husbandry challenges and safety considerations to what it actually takes behind the scenes to work with these powerful animals responsibly. And because we can’t stay serious forever, we wrap things up with a chaotic round of Smash or Pass: 90s Kids Animal TV Shows Edition, where nostalgia meets questionable opinions and plenty of laughs.
