On today's episode, we discuss the very weird story about how the Soviet Union tried to cross-breed humans and apes.
The craziest parts of this story are less about their failed attempt to create hybrids, and more about the ideals and sensibilities of the scientific community around the world at the time.
Bonus: Here's a link to our new music video inspired by this episode: "Soviet Monkey Business" - https://youtu.be/ALelKgYOhHk

On today's episode, we try our best to wrap our heads around Hannah Arendt's book "The Origins of Totalitarianism," published in 1951.
We focus primarily on her arguments around the history of Anti-semitism. While we struggle a bit to fully grip the text, we make a good faith effort to better understand the historical context of anti-semitism in the 20th century
