  1. Ask us anything!! | Episode 155

    Show notes

    You've been asking, and we're answering! This week, we're tackling your listener-submitted questions, covering everything from reptile expos to some of the most interesting animals in the reptile world.

    What are the pros and cons of reptile expos? Is there a dream animal we'd want to own that isn't a reptile? What do we think about the adorable and unusual shingleback skink? And if we could bring one extinct animal back to life, what would it be?

    We're also sharing and reacting to some of your recent comments on the podcast because we love hearing what you have to say!

  2. Real Reptile Horror Stories | Halloween Special | Episode 154

    Show notes

    Happy Halloween from The Wild Type Podcast! We're celebrating spooky season with a reptile-themed Halloween episode, and things are about to get creepy.

    We're dressed as Randall and Celia from Monsters, Inc. because, honestly, they're basically reptile-adjacent. Then we're diving into reptile horror stories from Reddit and reading them out loud to react to the creepy, chaotic, and downright horrifying experiences people have had with reptiles. Whether it's a terrifying encounter, a nightmare pet situation, or a story that makes you question everything, we're ready to find out which ones are actually scary.

    To wrap things up, we're debating the worst trick-or-treat candies—the ones that make you want to trade your entire Halloween haul.

  4. Madagascar: The Mecca of Reptiles!! | Episode 152

    Show notes

    Our Reptiles Around the World tour is heading to Madagascar—the mecca of reptiles! We’re talking about some of our favorite reptiles from this incredible island, from species you probably already know and love to some seriously unique reptiles you may have never heard of. Madagascar is home to some of the most fascinating reptiles on the planet, and there are plenty of them we could talk about all day.

    Then we’re switching gears for a little real-life conversation about moving in with a significant other—what changes when you start sharing a home, the adjustments that come with it, and the things we wish we knew beforehand.

    Another stop on our Reptiles Around the World tour, and this one is a GOOD one!

  6. The Weirdest Things Reptiles Do | Episode 150

    Show notes

    Why do geckos drop their tails? Why are snakes constantly flicking their tongues? And what in the world are chameleons doing when they clean their eyeballs?

    This week, we’re getting into some of the weirdest reptile behaviors we’ve seen and breaking down what’s actually going on behind them. From tail dropping to tongue flicking to chameleons giving their eyeballs a deep clean, reptiles have some seriously strange ways of doing things.

    Before we dive into the reptile talk, we’re also catching up on some very questionable social media etiquette—like whether it’s okay to like a collab post of your ex’s wedding when his wife is the one who posted it. Because apparently, even Instagram has rules we need to figure out.

  7. When Your Reptile Gets Old: What Changes? | Episode 148

    Show notes

    As our reptiles grow older, their care can change right along with them. This week, we're talking about what it's like when a beloved reptile enters their senior years and how we can adjust their care as they age. We share what to look out for, how their needs can change, and what we can do to make their later years as comfortable as possible.

    Then we lighten things up with another round of Smash or Pass, this time putting some of the latest nail trends to the test. From fun new designs to trends we're not quite sure about, we're sharing our very honest opinions.

  9. WHAT DID WE JUST WATCH?! | Monsters of God Episode 2 | Episode 147

    Show notes

    New nails and a new episode of Monsters of God—and somehow the second one was even crazier than the first.

    We kick things off with our latest nail designs before getting into our reaction to Episode 2 of HBO's Monsters of God. And when we say this episode was crazy, we mean CRAZY. The show takes things to a whole new level, and we're giving you our completely raw, unfiltered reaction to everything we just watched. This one definitely isn't PG-13, and there was a LOT to unpack.

    If you watched Episode 2 and thought, "Did that really just happen?"—you're in good company. We're breaking it all down from the perspective of reptile keepers who have some very strong feelings about what we're seeing.

  10. Reptile species we no longer want to keep! | Episode 146

    Show notes

    Have you ever been absolutely convinced you wanted a certain reptile, only to realize later that it just isn't the right fit for you?

    We're talking about the reptile species we once thought we wanted to keep and why we've since changed our minds. From changes in our lifestyles and priorities to learning more about what these animals actually need, we share the species we've taken off our wish lists and what made us reconsider.

    Then we wrap things up with a listener question about one of our favorite topics: enclosures! How big does a Leachianus gecko enclosure really need to be, and is there such a thing as an enclosure that's too big for a reptile? We talk through the factors we consider when choosing enclosure size and what matters most for creating a great environment for your animal.

    Show notes

    Back-to-school season has us feeling nostalgic, so we're reminiscing about our favorite—and maybe not-so-favorite—back-to-school memories before putting together a shopping list of a very different kind.

    We're creating the ultimate reptile shopping list and talking through the things we'd actually recommend buying for your reptiles, the things that might not be worth the money, and a few things that every reptile keeper should have on hand.

    Then we're keeping the summer vibes going with a fruity round of Smash or Pass! Fresh fruit vs. fruit-flavored candy, our favorite summer fruits, and plenty of other fruity debates are on the table.

  12. Our Unfiltered Reaction to Monsters of God | Episode 144

    Show notes

    A few life updates kick things off, but the real conversation starts when we react to the highly anticipated first episode of HBO's Monsters of God.

    As reptile keepers, we were absolutely disgusted and appalled by what we saw. We give our completely raw, unfiltered reaction to the way reptiles are portrayed in the show, the things that left us horrified, and why we felt the need to talk about it. This isn't a polished review—we're reacting as reptile keepers who genuinely care about these animals, and we have A LOT to say.

    Then we completely switch gears with a much more lighthearted video of a guy attempting to answer funny questions about girlhood to see if he would survive as a girl. We react to his answers, share our own thoughts, and see just how well he understands the girl experience.

  13. Do These Reptiles Deserve Their Reputation? | Episode 143

    Show notes

    Some reptiles have a reputation for being aggressive, difficult, or even dangerous—but how much of it is actually true?

    This week, we're putting some of the reptile world's biggest stereotypes to the test as we decide which reputations are completely deserved, only partially true, or totally misunderstood. From tokay geckos and reticulated pythons to chameleons and more, we're sharing our thoughts on where these reputations came from and whether they're actually fair.

    Before we get into the debate, we chat about the yellow tiger salamander featured in the new Toy Story movie and what we thought about seeing an amphibian make its Pixar debut. To wrap things up, it's time for another round of Smash or Pass, where we're ranking all things summer—from kayaking and paddleboarding to water parks, tubing, and everything in between.

    Whether you're here to defend your favorite reptile or just enjoy a fun summer debate, this episode has a little something for everyone!

  15. Our Thoughts on Live Reptile Auctions | Episode 141

    Show notes

    Are live auctions the right way to buy and sell reptiles?

    This week, we're sharing our thoughts on the growing conversation around live reptile auctions. While auctions have long been a part of industries like livestock and farm animals, we discuss why we don't think the same model is a good fit for reptiles. We break down some of the concerns, where we see potential issues, and what we'd rather see for the future of the hobby.

    Then we switch gears for another round of "Are You the Type of Girl?" This time we're talking vacation styles. Are you the type to have every restaurant booked and a color-coded itinerary planned months in advance, or do you prefer to land, explore, and see where the trip takes you? We compare our travel styles and share a few stories from vacations past.

    From thoughtful reptile discussions to lighthearted debates, this week's conversation has a little something for everyone.

  16. The Ultimate Reptile Guessing Game | Episode 140

    Show notes

    In this episode, we're catching up with a quick update on Lyssa's newest nail set before putting our reptile knowledge to the test!

    We play a reptile-themed guessing game where one of us has a mystery reptile species on our forehead and has to figure out what it is by asking only yes-or-no questions. It sounds easy... until you're trying to narrow down hundreds of reptiles with just a handful of clues. Expect plenty of wrong guesses, surprising hints, and a lot of laughter along the way.

    Whether you're a seasoned reptile keeper or just enjoy a good game, this episode is full of fun, friendly competition, and reptile nerdiness.

  17. Hollywood Got This Snake All Wrong!! | Episode 139

    Show notes

    In this episode, we're mixing reptiles, pop culture, and plenty of laughs!

    We kick things off by talking about Euphoria and one of the show's most memorable reptile moments. A snake is portrayed as a deadly rattlesnake... except it definitely isn't. We break down the species that actually appears on screen, why it matters, and some of the creative movie magic used to make it fit the scene.

    Then we swap some of our funniest vacation stories, from unexpected mishaps to the kinds of moments that only seem to happen when you're traveling. To wrap things up, we play a round of Blind Ranking, where we have to rank different ways to eat eggs before knowing what comes next. The results are egg-actly as chaotic as you'd expect.

    Whether you're here for reptile facts, behind-the-scenes TV trivia, or just a good laugh, this episode has a little something for everyone.

    Show notes

    Neptune shares what it was like getting recognized from TikTok, while Lyssa gives an update on changes she's making to her reptile room. We also dive into a conversation about self-care and ask the question: how much is too much to spend on yourself?

    On the reptile side, Lyssa shares stories from pet-sitting beetles, and Neptune gives an update on shipping out two more male baby chameleons to their new homes.

    To wrap things up, we switch gears and talk about moving in with a significant other—what we've learned, what we wish we'd known sooner, and some tips for making the transition a little smoother.

    It's a classic catch-up episode filled with reptile updates, personal stories, and plenty of conversation along the way.

    Show notes

    Lyssa gives us the details on her new nails, and then we put ourselves in the hot seat by reacting to assumptions our listeners have about us. Which ones are surprisingly accurate? Which ones couldn't be further from the truth? You'll have to listen to find out.

    We also take a trip to West Africa to explore some of the incredible reptile species found in the region. From colorful lizards to fascinating snakes, we highlight a few standout species—including a cobra that can spit venom with impressive accuracy.
