An absolute privilege to interview the scientist Sarah Blaffer Hrdy for @hpspodcast.bsky.social

Blaffer Hrdy (ask me how autocorrect dealt with both of those words…) is an amazing researcher and razor-sharp thinker. I don’t listen to many podcasts (the bandwidth is too low for my taste) but I will do so here.
