About this listen
At Uganda’s Ngamba Island Sanctuary, chimpanzees were given clues to find hidden fruit—and when stronger evidence appeared, they changed their minds. In this episode of The Forensic Lens Podcast, I explore what this tells us about belief, bias, and the biology of reasoning. If chimps can update their conclusions when the facts change, why can’t we? From evolution to culture, this episode examines why rationality is not just human—and why evidence, not ego, should guide how we think.
