Comfort Creatures
Comfort Creatures
Ella McLeod, Alexis B. Preston
Comfort Creatures is a show for people who prefer their friends to have paws instead of hands! Every week, Alexis and Ella talk to guests about their pets or creatures that give them comfort, discuss their favorite fictional critters, learn about pets in history, and discover differences between pet ownership across the pond. Whether you have a giant sloth, two siamese skinks, or just know way too much about unicorns, every animal friend is welcome on Comfort Creatures!
152: Sharks Not Cruise Ships
Nothing in the ocean should be bigger than a Megladon or a Blue Whale. You heard it here first: we're dying on this hill. And did you know that Zebra sharks can be partial to a belly rub? All this plus talk of banana-sized teeth, hidden mouths and more Titanic hot takes on this week's ep! Send us YOUR pet stories (Ready, Pet, Go!) at comfortcreatures@maximumfun.org and don't forget to rate, review, and subscribe!
