Roo and Tugs are joined by Nuka once again as they explore the world of toxic parents in the context of furry. What are toxic parents? Should you be concerned about them? What do you do if you think you have one? What’s the difference between toxic and abusive behavior? We read your emails, share personal stories, and more, as we explore this subject which is close to home for many. We also have continued Space News with Dr. Buzz Aldrin, a new old-timey ad, and some audio from Salt Lake Comic Con FanX 2016.
