The internet planned a cool, fun Ikea Hide-And-Seek game but the cops were boring. Artificial Intelligence knows when you’re going to have a heart attack, and you can too! Maybe! And raccoons in Ontario have been hitting the sauce, but they’re being denied suitable social services to help with their addictions.

This week we have a special guest and talk about a cool international non-profit that a few of the Forest Friends are involved with! We had the weird issue near the end with some random skipping of a second or so at a time and also we sit on leather couches while recording so sorry for the shifting around noises.
