I'm I'm Hey, everybody. This is Ellen Weatherford.

And Christian Weatherford.

And this is just the zoo of us, your favorite animal review podcast.

And the music you just heard was our brand new theme song by none other than Louis Zong, just for us. It's so good. It's such a bop. It's so good. We're so happy to have it. We couldn't be more thrilled with it. We think it's perfect. It's been the theme song of our household for some time now.

I've listened to it about 800 times. I'm obsessed. So I hope that y'all like it too.

We are here to review animals. We rate them out of 10 in the categories of effectiveness,

ingenuity, and aesthetics. We are not zoological experts. We do a lot of research and try our best to make sure we're presenting information from trustworthy resources.

So normally, right about here, we jump right into the episode.

We get straight into the animal facts.

We have a couple of stuff to talk about before we do that today.

Big news.

If you didn't listen to the announcement that we put out just a couple of days ago, we are now on the Maximum Fund Network.

We did it, y'all.

We did it.

We made it.

So if you haven't heard that announcement, go back and check it out if you want a little more information.

It's less than two minutes. So, you know, if you're interested in hearing a little bit more about

that, go back and check that out. The timing of our launch on the network is really perfect because

maximum fun is currently throwing a virtual block party event. This is ongoing until October 22nd. The block party basically

means that all of the maximum fun shows are releasing really fun special episodes to welcome

in new audiences. And we are participating. So keep an eye out for an upcoming bonus episode as a treat to you listeners and as a way to say hello to our new MaxFund family.

If this is your first time ever hearing about Maximum Fun, this is a great opportunity to give some of their other shows a try and find a new podcast to fall in love with.
