Frans de Waal - Zomergasten - the primatologists evening of tv Dutch tvs Zomergasten lets people take over a national channel during a summer evening. This time it's the well known primatologist and etholigist Frans de Waal who gets to chose the tv fragments and explain why.[More:]I wish you guys spoke Dutch. But perhaps you'll want to ffw to the English fragments. Frans de Waal has a unique perspective on behaviour of apes and people. And how we've viewed that through the last 4 decades. Also interesting observations on US vs Europe. The interview will remain viewable for approx. 8 more days.
On 2nd thought: this is really not accessible to anglophones. It's just that I was so enthousiastic about the tv program.

At least you have something on tv worthwhile over there.

I don't really have tv - no cable or such; however, a friend couldn't fathom that idea and gave me their small tv when they got a larger one. I can get a few over the air chanels but forget that I have the thing so it sits on a high shelf in my office.....lurking; waiting.

The description sounds interesting but the video won't play on my phone. I'll try my computer later.

Yeah, I don't have a tv either. But I could watch this for free on the internet because it's from a national tv channel.
Frans de Waal has lived in the US and done research there for decades. So there should be plenty English language resources available.
