Who's the ass: us or donkeys? (w/ Bill & Ted's Alex Winter)

Send us Fan Mail Are donkeys really dumb, stubborn animals? Or did Aesop just give them that reputation? From ancient fables to Jackass, we take a look at how the donkey became the butt of the joke and why the joke may be on us. Comedian Helen Hong and zoologist Jo Wimpenny welcome Alex Winter, known for his starring role in the Bill  & Ted franchise, for a deep dive into the donkey’s surprising history and intelligence.
