Fred's fame is growing. I'm from Pennsylvania and I stumbled on Fred the Tree looking for places to snorkel in the Keys, I have no idea how. Thanks for the interesting interview. It was fun to listen to. ! I love how when the answer is NO, you go ask Santa and the elves. Too funny. I had a short but wonder--FULL trip to your beautiful Keys. We searched and saw Fred! I truly loved seeing all the police out in force, thank them all for me! Happy Trails! I am singing Fred the Tree ;D

is there no sound? I can here your intro and outro, no sound on the content?
Not sure, might want to check your settings. It appears to work on desktop and mobile.
@@conchsnation it’s interesting, I watched all three of your videos. The others had sound? Came back to watch it again. Still only heard into. Just tried again, turns out it is my earbuds don’t like this video? Disconnect and I have sound from my laptop? Strange…💁♂️
