View Full Version : How about women of the reptile industry?

I've been listening to a lot of old RR episodes lately, and noticed that there seems to be a shortage of female guests. There are many breeders out there that are run by couples, but for whatever reason, it's only the male side of the couple that is in the spotlight (Dan of Snake Keeper, Shawn of EBN, Greg Graziani, etc). So, just a thought, why not a women of the reptile industry show or series? If they're open to the idea, the women behind the men in the reptile industry can get on the show to tell their own story and explain how they came to be a part of a predominately male-dominated industry. Additionally, you could bring back LadyOhh, Kara from NERD, and any other women breeders out there that have entered the business on their own.

I have a girlfriend that is as into ball pythons as anyone out there, and between us we have a small but steadily growing collection of animals. I think it may be a worthwhile and interesting experience getting more of the female perspective on the show, and see we can't get more women bitten by the reptile addiction.

Good idea! A female guest will be awesome. Try and get Tracy Barker or Kim Bell;)
Better yet, Laura of BHB will be awesome since shes already used to the spotlight with the cameras.

If she'll have us this will be the next woman guest on RR.

Laura Fopiano is another we've be meaning to do.

Kara would be another great show, along with many others I'm sure. Great idea I must say..

i'd be cool with a women only episode, would prefer a "hot women of" episode, with pics !
as long as it's better than the snake bytes one they did a while back with "this is my carpet...and this is my carpet python" . i love snake bytes, but that was probably the lamest episode yet.
