Charlie the Bearded Dragon

It's 9 pm on a Friday, and the vibes are loose. This week's caller is a former teacher turned novelist-in-progress who's found fulfillment in writing, volunteering, and caring for the true love of her life: an elderly, disabled bearded dragon named Charlie. Sure, she and Gethard also talk about volunteer paleontology, dating with autism, and how Geth ties into her broken ankle, but at the end of the day, this is a call about a bearded dragon named Charlie.
