Garret S and Nicole discuss Dolittle, how neither of us managed to power through the movie, the utterly bizarre accents of the live and voice actors, and the meaning animals have in our lives as adults and children. We recommend some of our favorite animal stories from childhood like Is Your Mama a Llama? and Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.

Garret recommends His Dark Materials the books and on HBO. Nicole recommends the Song Exploder episode on Closing Time.
