Episode description

The legendary naturalist who studied finches, travelled the world over, probably ate some giant tortises and the humbe office chair.

Often broken in some way but pushed on as a borderline cripple rather than fixed or replaced. Jeez they have a hard time.

Don't know what Darwin's cabin was like on that ship he sailed, that could've been a hard time to. I bet he didn't have someone sitting on him though!
