The Human Zoo, was a radio program that was presented by Tommy Boyd, with his engineer Asher Gould acting as co-presenter.
The program adopted a 'phone-in' format where callers were not pre-screened and could freely discuss topics within broadcasting regulations.
To ensure compliance, a dump button was utilized, a common method in radio to prevent the broadcast of offensive or illegal content.
The Human Zoo welcomed a diverse range of callers, some of whom contributed short performances, played prepared audio pieces, or simply shared catchphrases.
Boyd was dismissed from Talksport, the radio station the program was hosted on, in March 2002 after failing to use the profanity delay to "dump" a caller's remarks that the British Royal Family should be shot.
