About this listen
Charles Darwin didn’t set out to destroy the old story of life. He just couldn’t look away from the cracks in it. From the deck of the Beagle to the hills of the Galápagos, Darwin saw what others missed — tiny details, local variations, uncomfortable truths. His theory of natural selection reshaped biology, shattered theology, and sparked one of the most dangerous ideas in human history: we are not separate from nature… we are subject to it. This is the story of a quiet man who changed the world — not with force, but with focus. Because sometimes, looking too close is all it takes to see everything differently. From fossils to finches, DNA to dating apps — this is evolution, consequence, and aftermath.
