The Retic Lounge #143 – Perseverance Through Tragedy w/ Sam of SSD Retics
In this heartfelt episode of The Retic Lounge, Nathan and Lucas sit down with Sam of SSD Retics to talk about his journey with Reticulated Pythons and reptiles, from the early days of keeping to where he is today. Sam shares the devastating story of a tragic fire that wiped out his collection and how he’s been able to persevere, rebuild, and continue his passion for these incredible snakes.
The conversation also highlights the work Sam is putting into his YouTube channel, *SSD Retics and Reptiles*, where he offers a raw, real-life perspective on keeping and working with Reticulated Pythons.
