Exclusive: The Harambe Tapes, Revealed

About this episode

The episode explores the impact of Harambe's death on culture and the issues surrounding name, image, and likeness.

Ten years ago today, one gorilla's death broke the internet, from sports and politics to million-dollar memes. But Harambe's life was a tragic battle over name, image and likeness — including files the Cincinnati Zoo worked to suppress... until now. Desus Nice and Katie Nolan help Pablo get to the bottom of what gorillas in our midst can teach us about ourselves. • Subscribe to PTFO on YouTube to watch the Harambe tapes and more • Subscribe to "Casuals with Katie Nolan" Hosted on Acast.
