Episode notes

There are tribes that don't have much or any contact with the quote unquote civilized world. There's a huge debate about you know do we try and contact them and bring them in. The trauma of the rubber boom sent them out that far into the forest and made them terrified of the outside world. And so that's also what made them so hyper violent.
