I live in North Georgia, actually down the street from KINOVA, but grew up in Atlanta, and I will tell you I will attend NEITHER show. If I had to chose, I’d go to Bob’s show, however both shows are in REALLY bad areas. I personally wouldn’t feel safe walking around down there- I hope both shows have adequate security! I lived in Atlanta for twenty years and worked in McDonough for a year, it was NOT a safe area. One of my friends got robbed at gunpoint down there, and I quit my job down there. I love Bob and Kinova, but between the traffic and safety concerns, I will be ordering directly from them.
Great Video & perfectly said. Bob is an awesome guy. It’s sad that there’s drama surrounding it. Some people are stuck in these old school ways but in reality we’re all stronger together. It shouldn’t be a competition. I hope his show is a success 🤞He deserves it ❤
I found this video when I was trying to find the difference in the two shows. The "new location" on the Reptilian Nation one was the first post I saw of them having a show in Atlanta, so I was thinking the Southeast show had moved. I'm glad I searched, and will definitely be supporting Bob's show!
My wife isn't going to want to go but I definitely want to go, just like you said in this video, I'm in Alabama and driving to Illinois to a reptile show is a little excessive so being about to drive 2 1/2 hours away to go to a show where a lot of big name breeders are going to be is absolutely fantastic, I don't really have the money to buy anything from any of you but just being able to come and support the show it's self and getting to meet and talk with a lot of you will be great.
I am from Alabama too. Little confused. What show should I go too. Never been to either one so I don't know what to expect. Are they both going to be big events? Looking for a lizard.
Great meeting you in Daytona! Thanks for the time spent trying to hone me find the right pieces for my sunset project. Really appreciated this video. Thank you.
I just found this video and i have to say im so excited that the southeast reptile expo will be back in February 2025! I will be traveling in from northwest florida and im really looking forward to seeing all the amazing vendors and getting some cool creatures😄
You know how kids will be on a play date and a kid will go into the toy chest and grab a toy that the kid owned, but haven’t played with in a while, but all of a sudden that kid is crying and screaming that their toy is being played with, and NOW they want it? This is that, but in sad, adult form.
As a newer generation breeder, im def aware of who bob is but its breeders like you and justin that r the breeders i look up to and listen to. Bob was your mentor. Youre mine😊
I get that may have sounded silly just need you to know how much you inspire the newer generation of breeders. You guys are killin it on many levels. Best videos on youtube for those breeders still learning...and we're all still learning 😁 Being a good breeder is one thing...managing a small business is a whole different ball game. I'm a biologist, not a business owner. You cover those topics necessary for success, regardless of your aspirations
Saw you last year at the last reptilian expo, good show. Sad to see controversy, and drama in the show business. Not sure if we’re gonna be attending their show this year. Can’t wait to see you at bob’s in a few weeks!
Just because of that pettiness I'd support Bob. Come to the Canadian show of shows Sept 14 and 15 just to walk around. It's crazy in terms of Canadians. CRBE. Dav was there a couple of years ago.
So...Reptilian Nation didn't want to do a show in Atlanta, and at the same time, didn't want anyone else to do one. Make it make sense. Best of luck to Bob and his expo moving forward.
There's a price of cake for everyone. They could have both made a lot of money by alternating the shows. One does summer and winter the other spring ans fall
Sounds like Reptile Nation are butt hurt that their management f'd up for cancelling the show...ppl should boycott reptile nation on the simple fact they are doing this out of spite. they are the ppl we dont want in this industry....bob is. We want ppl in this industry that enjoy healthy competition, that share knowledge, that make the lives of owners and pets alike better. and for the most part most ppl in this industry are exactly like that..youtube is a prime example...look how many breeders are friends yet at the same time competitors, but instead of spreading hate or ignoring each other, they share infor, go on each others channels, support each other, trade animals to help with projects etc. ..thats the way it should be...Reptile Nation is taking a page out of NERDs type of dealing with competition..attack, lie your way to the top and you will find yourself there alone
If reptile nation wants to be petty I can to, I can skip their show and go to Bob’s show instead. You know they are only having a show because Bob is putting one on because they didn’t want to until someone else did. The thing with social media is word travels fast they are trying to cost Bob money to be spiteful for their own stupidity. I hope you do fantastic and make it a yearly event.
Loved this!!! BOB IS GOING TO DO GREAT!!
Great video! Big shoutout to the Southeast Reptile Expo and the All American Plant & Reptile Expo!!!
Both shows are gonna be amazing!
Really hoping Bob's event is a success despite the pettiness surrounding it. He's a great person and talented business man.
@@neuro_fi couldn’t agree more! Thank you for watching friend!

Couldn’t agree more, Banna! Thank you for watching and for commenting btw!
Awesome video Steven. Thanks for putting the information out for the community.
Thank you friends! We appreciate you!
When I found out about this show, in July, I took that weekend off from work and got my tickets. I'm coming from the Augusta area and can't wait!!
We can’t wait! It is gonna be an amazing game show!
Great video I believe the community will support Bob fully... I hope his show is a smash....
Completely agree! The entire community is behind him!
I hope I make it but if not; kick ass with this show. Bob should be applauded for his efforts.

He needs to come to Greenville SC soon. The bridge between Atlanta and Charlotte
I say let them have a slap match who ever wins keeps the territory 😂
Love it! 😂
I wish the best for Bob and the success of his show. Reptilian nation very sad and dirty work. Petty
Thats wild
Are there 2 reptile shows Sunday? Looking for lizard! Trying to figure out what show to go to, looking for a lizard.
Just because of that pettiness I'd support Bob. Come to the Canadian show of shows Sept 14 and 15 just to walk around. It's crazy in terms of Canadians. CRBE. Dav was there a couple of years ago.
So...Reptilian Nation didn't want to do a show in Atlanta, and at the same time, didn't want anyone else to do one. Make it make sense. Best of luck to Bob and his expo moving forward.
Bullying and toxicity has always been within the hobby unfortunately. But I am hoping Bob's show is a success. We need more good people in this hobby.
There's a price of cake for everyone. They could have both made a lot of money by alternating the shows. One does summer and winter the other spring ans fall
Yes! Hopefully things chill out in the future!
I can't see the fb post. Either taken down or I am blocked. I know the new owner of mm loves to start drama on fb.
Sounds like Reptile Nation are butt hurt that their management f'd up for cancelling the show...ppl should boycott reptile nation on the simple fact they are doing this out of spite. they are the ppl we dont want in this industry....bob is. We want ppl in this industry that enjoy healthy competition, that share knowledge, that make the lives of owners and pets alike better. and for the most part most ppl in this industry are exactly like that..youtube is a prime example...look how many breeders are friends yet at the same time competitors, but instead of spreading hate or ignoring each other, they share infor, go on each others channels, support each other, trade animals to help with projects etc. ..thats the way it should be...Reptile Nation is taking a page out of NERDs type of dealing with competition..attack, lie your way to the top and you will find yourself there alone
Show me reptiles pulls this crap all the time. Sadly Not a new tactic ...
We need some bigger shows in Ohio! Our local monthly show in Cincinnati is cool but be nice for bigger names to come
If reptile nation wants to be petty I can to, I can skip their show and go to Bob’s show instead. You know they are only having a show because Bob is putting one on because they didn’t want to until someone else did. The thing with social media is word travels fast they are trying to cost Bob money to be spiteful for their own stupidity. I hope you do fantastic and make it a yearly event.
