Hello and welcome, all you Draiglin' Hogneys. We know you're too busy draiglin away your days to read a silly little intro like this, so we'll keep it short and sweet-- this week Max is going to tell us about a Hogney that is a little more Draiglin' than the average hog, and Janey is going to tell us a story about a man who is DEFINITELY not falling in love with a cat.

Spoily: Max cries in this episode, and you'll never guess where.
