Welcome to the Weird But True Podcast.

As you may have noticed, we haven't made an episode for about a week now.

That's because it's very hard for me to write the scripts every single darn day. So that's why we've been behind.

Now we will try to make an episode every Friday, so tune in then. But anyway, Erma, what's our topic?

Today, we will be barking up some facts about pets.

That's right. Now let's get to the show Whoa! Whoa, Ermcat, what is going on?

So the reason I can't taste candy is all my tongue's fault?
