Ilya Ivanov's Rape of African Women With Chimpanzee Sperm

Ilya Ivanov heads off to French Guinea in West Africa and starts his research. The other researchers there don't like him, but Ilya claims this is because the station was a disgusting mess. He got to work anyway and he tried to disseminate three juvenile chimpanzees. Tragically, that did not work. Since his funds were limited, this failure convinced Ilya that he needed to try a different tactic. And since that didn't work, his next plan is to implant chimpanzees semen into African women without telling them what he was doing. This is the only instance in this podcast where colonial Africa is not as terrible as it could have been.
