  • The Hangman’s Ape & The Elephant Execution

    Luis tells Kurt two wild stories about animal cruelty. Hear me out; it's not what you expect.

    Whether it's animals facing capital punishment, or animals doling out capital punishment, this episode goes into the dilemma of whether or not we should punish crime with death, while never actually providing a solution. Classic white men with a podcast, am I right?
