The show defined "otherkins" as "people who identify spiritually, wholly, or partially as non-human beings, entities, or concepts." It quoted Ulv as stating that "When I was twelve years old, I would tell people that I was a wolf in a human body, but I didn't know any of the terminology or the community for it so I actually spent quite a bit of time in the [[wikifur:Furry|Furry]] community." The interview concluded with Ulv stating "It's always been the outcasts who come out on top. Yeah, I'm weird, but what are you doing with your life?"
