Hey Frankie and Rondo, I grew up in Papua New Guinea (PNG) and I have never heard of any "undiscovered" places in modern day PNG. I'm from the coast but everyone from the jungles have pretty much been exposed to modernity. You'll see people in jungle villages walking around with smartphones connected to bluetooth speakers made in China. You want to know what is REALLY in the deep jungles of PNG? ..For more than half a century now, Illegal multinational logging companies have been felling millions of acres of centuries old trees from pristine rainforests, Western mining companies deep in the jungles blasting huge open pits and dumping chemical waste like oil and cyanide into virgin river systems which end up killing natural wildlife and killing local people (especially children who play in the rivers) who live off those rivers, miles of barbed wire fenced acreages with massive satellite dishes that even locals are not allowed to look at let alone be anywhere near... This "cannibals in the jungle" is a narrative pushed by people whose 'special interests' mean they don't want anyone looking to closely into what Western corporations are really doing in those jungles. Believe me, I know, I have family who work in some of those 'legal' mines and even they're not allowed into some of those hi tech compounds with rows of satellite dishes. It's been said that those compounds are unofficial US army bases (just like how the CIA says they don't have a base in the middle of Australia). Some educated locals in PNG say these compounds may be part of the wall of surveillance surrounding the "Chinese threat" in the region or so they say....a result of post war international policy when the jungles of PNG became a strategic point between Asia and the Pacific in the war for control of the area during WW2. There's currently genocide in West Papua carried out by the Indonesian Military who's military might has been heavily subsidized for decades by the US government. Indigenous people are being murdered by the thousands in West Papua. I tell you if the so called "cannibal" indigenous people gain rightful control of their own land on the Indonesian side, they will bring to light many things that special interests are trying to keep hidden in those jungles. Many people try to deny this reality but sad to say, Imperialism is still happening behind the scenes. I'm a subscriber so I thought I'd give you an actual local's point of view. Don't buy into the narrative.

[@lucilledelorme]

Because Karl is so inarticulate and unsure about specifics it's easy to dismiss everything he says as bollocks but sometimes there's a kernel of truth to his bizarre ramblings. The dolphin story, I think, is based on dolphins that had been trained by the US military to find or deploy sea mines but who escaped. The monkey news is based on Oliver the chimpanzee who had a habit of walking upright and was sold on by his first owner because once he became sexually mature pestered his wife. Years later he tracked him down and found him living in a sanctuary and his story is the subject of a documentary which I'm sure is available on line. He was exhibited all over and was 'sold' as a human chimp hybrid although DNA tests showed he was not. Interesting but sad story all the same.

@@markodern789 Oh yeah, definitely doesn't play to the crowd.

The funniest part for me was when Ricky called the gallery owner an iconoclast. Because first, Ricky's an iconoclast and second, iconoclasm is the opposite of what the guy does. Unless he's got a big bonfire in the back that wasn't mentioned. They make fun of Carl for being daft but they say some ridiculously idiotic things sometimes; like that Romans did not have machines (in another episode).

"Though Ricky and Steve had apparently never heard of Ollie, he is a fairly well-known chimp, having been the subject of numerous documentaries. He is said to display human traits, such as walking on two feet and having a skull that is closer in shape to that of a human. His trainer, Janet Berger, claimed that Ollie became attracted to her when he reached sexual maturity and tried to mount her on multiple occasions. His behavior lead some in the scientific community to wonder whether he was some sort of human-chimpanzee hybrid, and thus he came to be known as a "Humanzee". However, DNA tests would eventually prove that Ollie was in fact just a regular chimpanzee."

[@lucilledelorme]

You just know it would be Ricky's dearest wsh to send Karl to a tribe ( the Pappas- no connection to the Mamas and Papas) that would require him to invert his penis. I'm sure it was brought up for An idiot abroad and fervently pushed back against by Karl. Would have been a brilliant episode.

Ollie the Chimp died in 2012 aged around 55, he tried mounting the Zoo Keeper a few times, not a Zoo Keepers wife 😂 he spent his last few years with a Female Chimp called Raisin

[@Lethgar_Smith]

Ollie is based on the real life performing Chimpanzee known as Oliver who was promoted as a "missing link" or possible human chimpanzee hybrid. Post mortem DNA testing showed it was just a typical central African chimpanzee. It had unusual but not uncharacteristic features such as limited hair on its face and head, freckles and tended to walk up-right on its hind legs rather than more typical knuckle walking.
