| 0:00.0 | Just want to say a massive thank you to ESOP and their new podcast Future Fables for partnering |
| 0:05.2 | with us for this episode of Homo sapiens. Listeners ESOP don't just do amazing hand cream, |
| 0:10.7 | they have created a whole universe beyond their products to help bring respite and replenishment |
| 0:15.6 | to our daily lives because that's the lovely kind of people they are. For example, ESOP have |
| 0:19.7 | partnered with The Literary Hub to bring you the Brilliant Future Fables podcast. Each episode |
| 0:25.5 | a new author composes a fable between five and ten minutes long, providing bite-size chunks |
| 0:30.0 | of wisdom, guidance and advice for navigating modern times, packaged up in a thoughtful |
| 0:34.7 | sonic offering. This series of Future Fables brings you fables from some of the most |
| 0:38.6 | talented and thought-provoking authors of today. So if you're looking for new ways to enrich your mind, |
| 0:43.4 | this is a great place to start. Last night I had a little scroll through season one and landed on |
| 0:48.4 | a fable from a friend of the show Amelia Abraham. If you don't know who she is, she's an incredibly |
| 0:52.8 | talented queer author and I love listening to her fable. It was all about friendship and rivalry |
| 0:58.1 | and empathy and I don't want to spoil it, but what she was saying has really stayed with me. |
| 1:02.4 | So if you like the sound of that, you can find fables from Amelia and other brilliant writers |
| 1:06.9 | by searching Future Fables wherever you get your podcasts. Hello listeners, this episode |
| 1:13.0 | of Homo sapiens is brought to you by WhatsApp from Meta. Now that making this podcast is a lot of |
| 1:19.2 | fun and WhatsApp is, I've got to say, an integral part of that. I'm constantly gassing on there, |
| 1:24.4 | I do love a voice note, but I plan episodes, I message guests, I chat with our producer, it's where |
| 1:29.6 | it's all happening. It's also the place I go when something big happens, no matter what it is, |
| 1:34.1 | whether it's a troninth, I want to celebrate with friends like I don't know, getting a WhatsApp |
| 1:38.7 | advert on your podcast or something not so good like the usual thing where I'm in a, |
| 1:43.2 | you know, some important dinner and I managed to pour food down myself or something |
