Join us as we attempt to pander to completely foreign cultures and expertly emulate their language! Sitta whiteheadi is the very frenchily-named, very mainland-France-inhabiting tiny dinosaur who’s hobbies include getting laid…and getting VERY ILLEGALLY shot (a.k.a. formally, scientifically discovered) by those pesky Englishmen >:( Prepare to be offended in the name of another appropriated culture, as we doubt the French and Corsican listeners will last ‘till the intro music :)

P.S. I love my French audience and please stay around….I don’t have any other fans :’(
