About this listen

Its Monday morning. How did you spend you weekend? If youre like 63% of Americans you had a drink or used some drugs to unwind. If we expand our definition of drugs to actually, you know, include ‘drugs’ like caffeine and nicotine, the number eclipses 90%. Its just the price of being an active human, right?

But alas, our humdrum workaday world does not make us unique in teh animal kingdom. There are plenty of other animals who like to partake and enjoy their time, and you know what? Some of them have a lot more free time than all but our most, shall we say, avid consumers of drugs. This week, were getting high with animals.
