You know, I didn't think like this is going to be a grand zoo, but it turns out this is a grand zoo, Ryan.
Ryan DavisHOST
Yeah, apparently it's one of the handful of zoos that offer free admission.
Ryan DavisHOST
I love a primate house.
Kiernan SchmidtHOST
You've always been a big fan of primates, but let's not get into your dating life.
Kiernan SchmidtHOST
One little fact about the Lincoln Park Zoo that I love is that it was founded when the New York City Central Park gave Chicago a pair of two mute swans.
Kiernan SchmidtHOST
And this was in 1868.

Kirsten WeaverNARRATOR
No, a fawn to Miss Bowers, Miss Olsen, Miss Ahern, and just Gertie was one of those things in the Lincoln Park Zoo.
Kirsten WeaverNARRATOR
Perhaps sometimes they realized, vaguely, that Nick was different.
Kirsten WeaverNARRATOR
When, for example, they tried, and failed, to picture him looking interestedly at one of those three-piece bedroom sets, glistening like pulled taffy in the window of the installment furniture store, while they, shy yet proprietary, clung to his arm and eyed the price ticket, now $98.50. You couldn't see Nick interested in bedroom sets, in price tickets, in any of those settled, fixed, everyday things.
