Episode 146 – A Taxidermied Tube Sock Weasel

Superduperstitious

The back half of August Around the World brings the show to Ecuador, where the animals are plentiful and the term “big boned” has a whole new meaning!

Jake pays a visit to some archeological sites of varying credibility to find lost golden libraries and curious skeletons. You don’t have to be 42 feet tall to laser a cave out of a mountain, but it helps. Then Wyatt walks through the possibilities of an unknown species (or two!) lurking in the rain forest. A predatory cat would probably be more successful in all black, but one does want a hint of color.
