Episode 83 has dropped and it’s a good one. Steven Kush of Rep.Tek and Cold Blooded Café sits down with me to talk some sh#t… Twenty-one year old kid that knows more about more than some keepers who’ve been in the game for 20 years. Plus I rant on some jagoffs and list my 5 favorite Ball Python genes… well… almost.
Not only that. But we’re giving Canada another chance to prove they’re all not full of sh#t, we got Mr. Foster Baillie of Genetic Intuition on a brand new 15 Minutes of Lame!
Our annual KINOVA love fest! Haters gonna hate, hate, hate. Certified what?? Find out why becoming a KINOVA Certified Partner may not be as easy as you’d like it to be.

Episode 81 – Possibly the most positive, spiritual, inspirational show that we’ve ever done here. You meet a guy like this MAYBE once every ten years. Socrates of Ari Elli Max Arboreals is easily my person of the year… yep… lil’ bit of a man-crush goin’ on here. You know someone is unique when he could inspire the Fatman like this guy did. Easily one of my top three interviews in the six year history of the show. I promise you won’t be disappointed in this one.
Plus, on a brand new 15 Minutes of Lame, Adam Clear of @benevolentreptiles makes his debut and you have to hear the story that got him a spot on the show!
Episode 79 is out now and it was a F’N BLAST. All the triggers are discussed on this show… Nido Witch Hunts, Trans and Gay People not being accepted in the community, Victim Mentality, and all thru the lens of one old Eye Talian and one slightly younger Eye Talian Mix. We get a lil bit Chicago, a little bit New York and a whole lot of aggravated with PC and Cancel Culture. Oh, I didn’t mention this earlier but Mike also breeds some of the best monitors in the country!
We also have Caleb Howell from Caleb’s Exotics and More on this week’s brand new 15 Minutes of Lame… so I mean… that might bring the show down a lil, but hey, they can’t all be home-runs.

Episode 77.... The show must go on! Two days out of the hospital but stickin' to the schedule like a motherf#cker... Go me! Episode 77 was too good not to get out on time as we welcome Luke Stratford from Lizard Morphs down in Australia. Probably one of the most fun conversations I've had since starting this thing.
Not only that... Courtney and Steven Capps from Leviathan Snakes just crushing it on 15 Minutes!

Catching up and re-connecting with an old friend of mine this episode. Ashlie Fawthrop is right out of English Ball Python Royalty and she's been my friend for years. Listen as we talk about her family, her trip to America, and new product lines that shes launched over the last year. The reality of it is I just missed my friend and wanted to catch up.
Shemeir Bernard is making waves on his new 15 Minutes of Lame... Watch out for this one man.
Fanboying a bit herel. I've been a huge fan of Seth Breedlove of Small Town Monsters ever since I saw "The Mothman of Point Pleasant" a few years ago. Odds are, if you've ever seen a Bigfoot documentary, a Mothman documentary or any other cryptid, ghost, or alien documentary... you've already seen a Seth Breedlove film. He has a totally different take on filming these docs and it was definitely a bucket list moment for me meeting this guy and getting him on the show. Being that most of you reptile guys look like you've spent years in the woods hunting Bigfoot, I figured it was a good fit.
And as if that's not enough... on a brand new 15 Minutes of Lame, probably one of the coolest cats I've met this year, Patrick Chung of Dragon Seoul Reptiles gives a f#cking clinic on the right way to start off in the ball python breeding hobby.

Snakes and the Fatman - Home of the big dogs!
Meet the most bad ass animal/reptile keeper you’ve never heard of. Dennis McNamara is the Assistant Curator of Reptiles at the Virginia Zoo in Norfolk. He has the dream job of working with hundreds of different reptiles and for some godforsaken reason… he also breeds ball pythons. I had to know why. Dennis is a brilliant guy to talk to and you can’t help but learn something from the stories he tells.
Also, Denise and Alan Britton of Recoil Reptiles kicks ass on the final 15 Minutes of Lame of 2021.
This will be the last episode of the year except for the Christmas Episode being released on December 25th with Justin Kobylka of Kinova and Brittney Gobble of Gobble’s Reptiles. We will return on January 1st 2022 with the winner of the 2021 15 Minutes of Lame Contest.
Also there will be no Zoom calls for the month of December and the first Open Zoom Call for Reptile Keepers will take place on Sunday, January 9th, 2022!
I want to thank all of our listeners, viewers, patrons and all the rest of ya that popped by over the last year. We have some amazing things coming in 2022 and can’t wait to show you guys! I hope everyone has a great holiday season and again, we honestly can’t thank everyone enough.

I cant believe I waited this long to have Albey Scholl on the show. This guy is one of the most bad a$$ old schoolers I’ve spoken with in a long f#ckin’ time. I can call him an old schooler because he was producing geckos in 19 f#ckin 72. A full year before the Fatman was even born. He’s shared the stage with Stevie Ray Vaughn and at least half a dozen other blues legends. He might even make a living doin’ what a bunch of you are trying to do… selling ball pythons. Hey, two out of three ain’t bad.
Also on a new 15 Minutes of Lame, Jarome Hollon is crushing it out in CA!
Listen to it now on Spotify, iTunes, and wherever great podcasts reside. Or you could listen to it at www.snakesandthefatman.com

Sit down with us as we take a trip down memory lane, discuss the new breed of keepers, and talk about his new disruptive company, Redline Science.

I’ve known Crazy Ray Tabano for 25 years and even after 25 years I still love just sitting down with this guy and listening to stories about the early days of Aerosmith and the legends that he had the chance to share the stage with. Ray is an amazing storyteller and someone I’m proud to say is my friend. This episode is a little different… not much snake talk but plenty of Rock N’ Roll history talk.
Not only that but I get to sit down with another Texas legend… Mr. James Durling of Yellow Rose Exotics hocks his wares on 15 Minutes of Lame.
