Lizards and Arson: Florida or Australia Jan. 29th 2021
SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA - SEPTEMBER 19: A one-month-old Veiled Chameleon crawls on the hand of a Taronga Zoo staff member September 19, 2006 in Sydney, Australia. Taronga Zoo's Chameleon breeding programme has for the first time in an Australian zoo produced four youngsters over the past month, with four eggs still to hatch. Chameleons are renowned for their ability to change colour, and their large eyes which can move independently of each other, allowing them to look in two directions at once.

If Tiger King has taught us anything it’s that there is a ferocious appetite for news stories about absolute disaster people. In that spirit, each night during the 9 and 10 o’clock hours I enjoy playing a game with you, the listener, called Florida or Australia. The rules are simple: I’ll tell you about a news story on the air and you text or call in and tell me if you think the story happened in Florida or Australia. (because those two places seem to have a high concentration of craziness.) Fridays are a special wildcard edition where I ask you to determine if the stories are homegrown crazy or imported from other countries. Here are tonight’s stories:
Be sure to tune in Monday through Friday nights at 9 and 10pm if you want to play along.
