In our two hundred and twenty-third episode we pay our respects to Tom Harbin of Tom Harbin Reptiles. Unfortunately Tom passed away recently. We had a chance to sit down with Tom at the September 2023 HERPS Conroe Show and this is the conversation we had with him. Tom was one of the nicest people in the whole world, not just the hobby and we hope you enjoy this episode as much as we did when we sat down with him.
