Summary

After gathering strands of human hair for 3 years, a caller begins to wonder if they have a problem. Then a pet owner tells me they’re addicted to huffing their cat’s fur, a caller speaks on the challenges of pursuing a career in cosmetology with a debilitating neurological disorder, a caller discusses his strange relationship with his ex-girlfriends dad, and I help a lost man get grounded while he’s on psychedelic mushrooms.   The bicycle was invented in 1817. That’s what Google says anyways. I am a gecko.
