Episode 13 Part 2 - Dragons: They Are Real, They Eat at Golden Corral

Rachelle, Ethan, and Christian finally give in to the pressure and we cover Dragons: The Second Big D in D&D. They are big scaly, scary, and literally everywhere.
And it's time now for the SCIENCE! Turns out, while the great winged forces of nature might not be real, humans sure love to call things "dragon-". On top of that, we did eventually find a big lizard with the temperament and resiliency to live up to that name, so at least one of the many Earth "dragons" is close enough to earn the title. Stick around for Part 2 of Dragons!
