CW: Cursing, horrifying baby Lepidodendrons, animals shedding skins, bog people

Rodents have stinky butts too y’know - it’s just we seem to be into that smell a lot more than we are skunk. Let’s once again revisit Amy’s cloaca envy and talk about waterproofing butt goop flavored ice cream shall we?

CW: all things that come out of a cloaca, cursing, animal death, eating of unpleasant things.

When did skunks get their characteristic butts? How does skunk spraying work and how do you get rid of it? We dig into the whys and wherefores of the skunk stank butt and watch a video so disgusting that Amy couldn't even relisten to herself reacting to it. (Images and video are on Patreon!)

CW: cursing, butt nipples, animal death, skunk spray and its results, use of skunk spray against protestors and Palestinians

There's a clam called Vulvaceramus. Or Volviceramus, if you are no fun. Let's talk about giant clams, pearls, and how Amy overidentifies with certain minerals.

CW: Vagina jokes, obviously. Cursing. Gossip.

Teeth evolved to be sensitive first, thank you very much - the whole “use for eating” thing was actually an evolutionary afterthought. And whatever ratfish are doing with them is… not correct.

CW: tenaculums & triggering medical procedures, cursing, dick shaped objects, trypophobia & odontophobia
