It has been a good while since an episode has been released for ApeBrains - but we are finally settled and back in Business! Because this is a podcast about being an ape and growing to become a better human being, Xane shares about the struggle and chaos that has occupied the last 2 months after moving back to UK.

Xane picked up the conversation about the crisis in Afghanistan and discussed the paradox of charity organisations with Alice, her trusted pal, and shared opinions around the issues. Please note that this episode was recorded one week ago prior to the upload!
