Episode 17 – Roxy Was a Very Good Kitty

It’s our SEVENTEENTH episode!

I’m sorry I’ve been away so long, but I get into all of that in this special first episode of 2017!This is the most personal and emotional thing I’ve ever recorded, and it’s probably a little sad, but it’s also fun I think, and you get to learn a little more about my favorite little episode interrupter and the best kitty ever.

I really hope you enjoy it and it can be something as special for you as it was for me.

And if you don’t like it, don’t worry, we’ll be back to normal fun stuff for the next episode. 😉

Central Animal Hospital is the wonderful vet I mention in the episode. They’re great even if I got their name wrong. Give me a break, I was tired and emotional!

It’s our SIXTEENTH episode!

It’s a kind of magic!

I’m back with Sam and Ben to get more into Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them, the world of Harry Potter, the striking similarities to Doctor Who and the Marvel Universe, and lots more!

Thrill as Sam acts like Doctor Who is somehow more ridiculous than Harry Potter!
