Better Than Monkeys

by

What (if anything) makes us—Homo sapiens—superior to (or at least distinct from) our close cousins, those happenin’ haplorrhine primates? WQLN’s premier podcast Better than Monkeys posits that it’s our forays into the arts and sciences that make us, well . . . human. BTM takes a monthly deep-dive behind the scenes of the arts and sciences, alongside local luminaries working in both disciplines, in order to answer that unwieldy question: What makes us human? Listen on, and dig into your humanity with a new episode every month!
