Listen to the Episode Here!
This time on TLT, Zaki downs frozen fish, Ali lives in a forest with his mate the Yeti, and Zaeem is left alone on an island to face his mortal enemy, the Vampire Moth. Join us as we explore Siberia.

This is Ali when he sees a glass normal people drink from: https://i.imgur.com/8XvTRC2.gif
