Description

This episode is brought to you by listeners like you, fueling our podcast and giving us the boost behind this mic. Thank you for your support.


On this episode of the podcast we meet Christopher Johnson and Wickus — a prawn and an ordinary man whose lives collide beneath a derelict ship over Johannesburg. Told through a documentary lens, the story unfolds from forced relocation and everyday cruelty to a shocking biological transformation that forces one man to see the world through another species' eyes.


As we chase the fuel canister, the lab raids, and a desperate flight toward the mothership, we grapple with segregation, exploitation, and the hard questions left unanswered: who are the prawns, what did humanity lose, and can empathy survive when power insists on division? Tune in for a tense, emotional ride through power, science, and the uneasy promise of redemption.
