In this episode, David reads some selected short stories and posts from his Instagram that helped build his account. If you've been following him for a while, you'll recognize some of these posts, and more importantly you'll recognize the illustrations done by Ettore Mazza.

Many of these posts have to do with dogs, wolves, and anthropology but the final one has to do with tattoos and the Lord of the Rings.

David stresses that these posts were originally a lot longer pieces of work, but had to be cut down to only 2,200 characters to fit within the limits of Instagram's rules. But that also helped make him a better writer than reader.

In a sense, these are the posts that originally went viral when he was just starting Instagram, and serve as the foundation for how David communicates science in an artistic yet educational way.

In this episode George and Kathy explore the story of lesser known Celtic warlord Caratacus, who defied the Roman Empire for almost ten years. Displaying many neurodivergent traits, Caratacus thwarted countless Roman attempts to capture him until eventually being recognised and respected by emperor Claudius and the Senate. Who was Caratacus and could he have been neurodivergent?
