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 is joined by the scouse seagulls roosting in his new gaff to discuss whether or not we should support the cull of invasive non-native species such as the bushy-tailed grey squirrel, the exotically plumed ring-necked parakeet and the trip-inducing cane toad. This swiftly degenerates into an exploration of how humans and non-human animals have a propensity to seek out psychedelic experience. Why do humans and Golden Retrievers lick slime off toads? Why do Big-Horned Sheep gum down hallucinatory moss? Was Jesus, himself, a mushroom? Christ, alive. You'll have to tune in to find out.
