Puzzled Monkey
A podcast that explores the obscurely relevant. Join Gusto as he (painfully) dissects pressing, as well as banal, issues within the spheres of culture, politics and the environment. Expect to encounter bizarre historical events that illustrate how far we haven't come, and how ideas have a propensity to recycle themselves. With any luck, you damn dirty apes will leave each episode more puzzled than you were beforehand.

Gusto looks at three niche stories in the past week that help us better understand our present socio-ecological predicament. How does a cat surfing a London train show us a path towards toppling the dreaded capitalist system? Why are humans shaping the evolution of marsupials in Australia? And, what does the discovery of glow-in-the-dark sharks mean for their conservation? Expect joyous musings on the validity of the bamboo toothbrush, the hidden ideology of Finding Nemo, and the deep-rooted desire within humans to play God.
