The episode discusses the controversial death of Harambe, a gorilla, and its implications on society.
Shot and killed in front of a crowd of terrified onlookers, Harambe, a western lowland gorilla, will go down in history. His death – seemingly while trying to rescue a small boy who had fallen into his enclosure at the Cincinnati Zoo and Biological Gardens – caused ripples across the world. On the ten year anniversary of his death, we try to answer the million-dollar question: did Harambe need to die? -- Patreon - Ad-free & Bonus Episodes YouTube - Full-length Video Episodes TikTok / Instagram
