Season 1 Episode 3 (pt.3/10)

How the F*ck Did We Get Here?

Overview

In today’s episode we are taking a brief look at the human civilisation journey, how we created societies and the genetic and social evolutions behind this. We also look at the social leadership experiments and how nations rose and fell. And finally ask a few questions regarding what has happened to us since the advent of the industrial, capitalist and technology eras.
