Raccoon Feeding
Sound Up!! No seriously this episode came out a little quiet so you might need to turn your sound up. But if you do, oh boy! It's a potpourri episode that dares to ask, Why do you smell like ketchup? We've got questions about a partner thinking you smell weird, the proper way to tell off a toddler, and dog etiquette (which actually comes up twice, so maybe more of a pooch-pourri, amirite?)
