Asinology (DONKEYS) with Faith Burden
1/28/20261 hr 16 min
Tall ears. Huge teeth. Underestimated wit. And vocalizations that would make a songbird envious. Let’s talk donkeys with researcher and Director at The Donkey Sanctuary, Asinologist Dr. Faith Burden. We cover pop culture donkeys, their road to domestication, how much they can carry, whether you should ever saddle up on a donkey, mule genetics, zoo sexism, how to care for a donkey, what their noises mean, milky baths, emperor gossip, squats versus donkey kicks, and why these beautiful beasts deserve all of our love.

Sell them on Depop. Just snap a few photos, and we'll take care of the rest, and you at least get some of your dignity [clears throat] money back. Someone on Depop wants what you've got. Start selling now. Depop, where taste recognizes taste.

One thing I love about my long-term friends is I'm still learning things about them, especially if we travel together. But maybe you have a buddy that you brought on a weekend trip who you didn't know has to do scream yoga at dawn. Surprise. But Vrbo, Vrbo does not surprise you. When you book a Vrbo vacation rental, Vrbo Care and 24/7 live support from real humans are included. If something is not as described or isn't working, Vrbo can step in to help make it right. I don't know what to tell you about the scream yoga, though. Book today on the Vrbo app if you know you Vrbo. Terms apply.
