Intro

On this week’s episode, Mookie recounts a perilous tale of a boy who discovered too late that hippos will eat ANYTHING while Erica tells the story of a diplomat who got a little too cocky regarding his knowledge of a unique cultural ritual.

Story 1

If you’re in Africa, life can get a little wild. One toddler recently learned that the hard way when he had a crazy encounter with a hippo!

Story 2

A diplomat visiting small island nations surrounding New Zealand mistakenly thought that the drink he was presented should be chugged like a keg… oops.
