This episode really represents one of our main goals in starting this podcast. Here we have a very niche community that most people have probably at least heard of, but have either a lack of knowledge, or some large misconceptions about. In this episode we talk with Jason, a member of the Furry Fandom, or more commonly called "furries". This is a very devoted community, and probably a much larger than you may think. We had a great time talking with Jason, and learned a lot. We hope you enjoy this chat as much as we did.
