Talking Tarantulas with Tarantula Haven

This week I sit down (virtually) with Alex Gastelum. He is a teacher from Central Florida that you may know from his CZcams channel or Instagram as Tarantula Haven. We discuss buying and keeping tarantulas, husbandry, enclosures, and breeding. How he got started in the hobby and making CZcams videos. We also talk about other inverts and reptiles he has in his collection. So join us and sit in on our in depth conversation and get to know Alex a little better. This was my first attempt at at a remote podcast, so please disregard the technical issues...lessons were learned and hopefully next time it will go a little smoother.
This is a repost of the podcast originally recorded a few years ago. CZcams recently launched a podcast section on channel pages. Initially, it was not a good idea to post podcast videos on your main channel as it would hurt the analytics. So I created a 2nd channel called The Exotic Pet Collective where the video version of the podcasts were uploaded. I had also been made aware that many of you did not the podcast existed, so I have been systematically taking the podcast down from the 2nd channel and moving them over to this channel. That way, they can all be under the podcast tab on my channel page, and viewers that had never seen or heard them before would be notified of their existence. I apologize for any confusion.
