Oh, hey, it's your internet friend who calls herself your dad, who said that this second

bears episode was going to come out as a midweek bonus episode just for funsies, and then

started putting it together, and it's like 37,000 clips from six different additional

or synologists, and I was like, what's even in my skull? Is it just a cauliflower? Because

and we are a fun bunch. Just Google parachuting beavers. You're welcome. K Jackson 0529,

at a place for science. But beavers before beavers, let's get into it. Okay, get ready to meet.
