radiolab inheritance transcript

But here's what I did not know about DNA. There's going to be this massacre of toads and only a few lucky ones are going to survive. JAD: Even if it helps, it's horrifying. Or does it get passed on such a deep level that doesn't even require teaching? I'm Executive Director and Founder of National Advocates for Pregnant Women. Yeah. ROBERT: Well, so here's the thing. The results are obvious to you. But she says she doesn't feel that way anymore. Push yourself and you got it.". SAM KEAN: You got to help boost if you had a starving grandfather. BARBARA HARRIS: He wasn't a little happy baby. Wait, when you say they can choose to be sterilized, you mean permanent? Are you nine? Because theyre reaching for the tops of trees. LYNN PALTROW: Are there people whose drug use is so out of control they can't parent? It goes back to the 1800s. He's 22, 23, and he already had this reputation for being amazing at keeping animals alive, that otherwise would just die. FRANCES CHAMPAGNE: Yes, yes. Where we began, they will accomplish. ROBERT: And those lucky ones, according to Darwin's theory, they would have had to have been born with some random mutation in their genes SAM KEAN: That gave them an advantage in this situation. He'd fall asleep and just wake up screaming. A really good radiolab about this called Inheritance. I know! So that was just funny to me. I'm Carl Zimmer's daughter.

Thank you so much for your interest in Radiolab. Where sound illuminates ideas, and the boundaries blur between science, philosophy, and human experience. OLOV BYGREN: It's a small forest area, very beautiful. ROBERT: Are you near the Arctic Circle or OLOV BYGREN: My home village was 10 miles North of polar circle. DESTINY HARRIS: That's my little girl. Yes, he was retarded. They have found very similar effects for smoking, for instance. ROBERT: And they didn't have these on land? This is nice and quiet. And they had more. "To Whom It May Concern, I have been doing very good. She is nine. ROBERT: And rewrite the so-called rules of genetics. We'll just be honest. You know? DESTINY HARRIS: Are you going to kick it? One parent stretching isnt going to do anything, see thats the bummer of Darwinian evolution. OLOV BYGREN: Well It's one-fourth, we can we say. The kingdom archive. And Barbara found herself returning to a thought she'd kind of always had. Well, yep, that is so true. I mean, he hates water. JAD: Hey, wait. And that could have very easily have been one of us. On the one hand, she says, immediately, cheques started arriving. She's 20 months old. PAT: If Barbara had gotten to Destiny's birth mom, Destiny, Kalia, this moment, none of it would exist. The neural chemical signal that gets activated during licking, is serotonin. SAM KEAN: If you have a starving daddy, it turns out that the baby actually gets some sort of health benefit. You can't change your DNA. PAT: I ended up finding myself really conflicted about it. And Barbara is not offering that. JAD: No, not brain cells. CARL ZIMMER: Well, there was an expert on reptiles named G. Kingsley Noble. Then she goes, "Oh wait, I didn't give birth to you. Radiolab is a radio program broadcast on public radio stations in the United States, and a podcast available internationally, both produced by WNYC.Hosted by Latif Nasser and Lulu Miller, each episode focuses on a topic of a scientific and philosophical nature, through stories, interviews, and thought experiments.. Radiolab's broadcast edition airs as an hour-long program each week while the . ROBERT: You cant say that. This is real physical-chemical interaction between what's going on in the environment and what's going on with the DNA. My situation turned out positive. And in1923, he actually comes to England. [ARCHIVAL Clip, Panel: You don't think that they should have their children back?]. ], [ARCHIVAL CLIP, BARBARA HARRIS: Like you said, when you were in your addiction like she is], [ARCHIVAL CLIP, BARBARA HARRIS: I didn't say I'm God. Catch up with new episodes and hear classics from our archive. I'm Sam Kean's dad. Truth is, we dont know precisely how this happens but somehow the experience of starvation marks the DNA. Its something I still think about all the time. BARBARA HARRIS: And I knew that the only way I was going to get a daughter was if I went and became a foster parent and asked for one. That was the implication, except Kammerer tried to defend himself by saying "Do you think I'm a Dummkopf, or an idiot, because that's what I would have to be if I left a forgery with ink standing around openly in the laboratory where so many of my enemies would have entry?". [laughs] We now know that thats not the case. Or is it? The sneaky idea here is that the blacksmiths, the giraffes, they made it happen. Yeah. Move on to the next cage yes, no? JAD: Its an idea thats been kicking around for me since my kids were born. I'm not saying that these women are dogs but they're not acting any more responsible than a dog in heat. They lived longer lives, something like 30 years on average. Then World War One came and that disrupted everything. LYNN PALTROW: I'm Executive Director and Founder of National Advocates for Pregnant Women. We went to the foster home and went in. Right away, people accused her of targeting women at their weakest moment and enabling their drug abuse. Turning down a job that they'd offered him. Yeah. FRANCES CHAMPAGNE: There's a normal distribution, right? Radiolab is a radio program produced by WNYC, a public radio station in New York City, and broadcast on public radio stations in the United States. FRANCES CHAMPAGNE: So, we have our rats in the lab and JAD: They thought, "Let's just see if we can figure out how it is the rat mothers pass down their parenting skills?". This whole toad thing, to the Darwinian faction, it didn't scan really. Well think about it, this is nature and nurture slamming into each other. Kammerer puts on a suit and he walks off into the mountains Outside Vienna on a Rocky mountain trail. ], I'm going to go out into the streets and offer addicted women money to use birth control. JAD: See, this is the story of science that doesn't get told. Here, Kammerer's was saying, "You can do this even on a physical level.". This was a really radical place at the time because you have to remember that people studying animals up till now, they were basically studying preserved specimens, and so on. Like, mine are bigger, you know." I don't like to upset people. Still, that's a burden that, he's carrying a big burden there. PAT: Destiny says before she was born, her mom had four other girls. PAT: So Barbara and her son got in the car and drove across town to the foster home where Destiny had been living for the past eight months. PAT: Barbara says they've reached out to her many times but they never heard back. Maybe they'd try and jump back out, but it was still hot so they'd have to jump back in. Live shows were first offered in 2008. ROBERT: But luckily for the Vivarium and for our story, they had a guy. So much can happen after that. That is a bad way to start a kid's life but that's just the beginning of the kid's life. To fellow named Jean-Baptiste Pierre Antoine de Monet, chevalier de Lamarck. Heart disease. ROBERT: Remind me this. [laughs]. Its gonna get messy. See, this is the story of science that doesn't get told. SAM KEAN: That was the implication, except Kammerer tried to defend himself by saying CARL ZIMMER: "Do you think I'm a Dummkopf, or an idiot, because that's what I would have to be if I left a forgery with ink standing around openly in the laboratory where so many of my enemies would have entry?". She's 20 months old. Were told. More of this particular protein. CARL ZIMMER: He was revealing it with experiments. Nobody has a right to do that to a baby. Radiolab: Inheritance - Mastering Rhetoric Radiolab: Inheritance Posted on February 26, 2013 by wlin4 So I listened to Radiolab's story on "Inheritance" which talks about genetics. How do those cycles perpetuate? When Emil gets to be eight, I'm cutting him off. Yep, Im a professor in the faculty of medicine at McGill University in Montreal. I don't like to upset people. next launcher 3d shell pro apk 2019; bad products that sold well; big and tall clothing stores near warsaw; hp chromebook solid orange light; what makes a good family lawyer This whole toad thing, to the Darwinian faction, it didn't scan really. SAM KEAN: Except he had one. Like have you ever had one of those moments where you suddenly are your dad and it catches you off guard? You have to do that for five hours a day for six consecutive days. We'll just be honest. Nice, cool water. SAM KEAN: What's happening during this time is that you're setting aside the stock of cells that you're going to draw on in the future to make sperm cells. PAT: She did. All these chemicals racing by crashing into it, sticking, and one of the bits that gets covered up is that little bit that makes the proteins that create a maternal instinct. Well, yep, that is so true. I mean, I'm married to a Black man. Listen to the first three stories of the "Inheritance" Radiolab Podcast (Control + click on link to access podcast. I find myself thinking like, Okay, I know these kids have their genes half from me, half from my wife. PAT: She just knew, "This is my daughter.". So that's fun. It's a guided audio tour through cities where Radiolab Ken Burns and others. Do you have any theories for how this tongue is tickling the DNA, or whatever it's doing? Don't you see, somehow the mother's tongue is getting all the way down in there and going [mumbles] and messing with the baby's DNA. DESTINY HARRIS: And that could have very easily have been one of us. DESTINY HARRIS: Oh my goodness. Go to him. There were four girls and Barbara and Destiny told me that a few years ago they found three of them and they all either were in college or had finished college. This is what's called the slow growth period. I want her to be able to look back on her life one day, maybe when she's getting interviewed, I don't know, and be able to say that, "Yes, my mom was there for me 100% without a doubt." And The other day someone was whistling and I was like, "Stop it", and it just hit me, I was like, "Oh God, I was him", it's never appeared until now. They both say that they actually often forget that they're not biologically related. SAM KEAN: It seemed to have been passed down for multiple generations. So this whole debate, two totally different ways of seeing life. [chuckles], Yes, yes. But the results are very clear. What they decided to do first was to try to figure out which rat was which, which meant, interestingly, counting all the legs. Anyhow, so you got this guy, Paul Kammerer, who's good with animals. JAD: I initially felt very hopeful and excited about this research because it seems to suggest that a body, one body can respond to an environment and change and be flexible in a way we didn't think was possible. Covid has disrupted the most basic routines of our days and nights. They like to hang out in the water and the females like to lay eggs in the water. And I packed up my stuff, it's pretty much done. I'm the founder and director of Project Prevention. All rights reserved. What a name, you've got to like this guy. You're obviously a great mom, but that feels cold to me. Did you know there is a part of this show is gonna be like crazy breaking news, like happened yesterday and we already have a deep take on it? We went to the foster home and went in. Well, he thought it might have been an assistant trying to frame him because he was Jewish. You've got these toads who hate water. SAM KEAN: Very easily. And one of them is called the thyroid system. PAT: A year later, she gets another call. DESTINY HARRIS: Not been born at all. LULU: In a very real way, we've been thinking a lot about inheritance. SAM KEAN: It does, it does make kind of a folk sense. I'm in public health. As to diabetes, it was a four-fold risk. And the incredible thing is, those marks stick around. JAD: They all go down to the DNA, surround that methyl and just, pow! FRANCES CHAMPAGNE: He had no idea about DNA. It was just no baby should have to come into the world like that. Because we had already had to upgrade from a car to a van, from a condo to a home. They would experience these wild changes from harvest to harvest. BARBARA HARRIS: It was just no baby should have to come into the world like that. Is that too old?" Full disclosure, she's Robert's sister's partner. And all over the political spectrum, from Hollywood lefties to social conservatives. JAD: Now the Sweden story from our last segment left us both feeling a little strange. It would be wrong to think that they represent all women who use drugs while they're pregnant. So thats the reason, of course, that we work with rats because we can get inside the brain.

Full transcript: Radiolab co-host Jad Abumrad on Recode Media The new season of More Perfect, a spinoff show from Radiolab, began airing Oct. 2. All these chemicals racing by crashing into it, sticking, and one of the bits that gets covered up is that little bit that makes the proteins that create a maternal instinct. And she told Barbara, "There's something you need to know about this baby.". JAD: Theyd basically starve. What does that mean, he was an idiot? So some scientists began to ask Kammerer if they could look at his toads. Because we had already had to upgrade from a car to a van, from a condo to a home. PAT: Could you just tell us what you are doing now? We actually sent our friend, Pejk Malinovski, to the archives in Stockholm to check it out. PAT: Yeah. The team that creates each episode, including hosts Jad Abumrad and Robert Krulwich, are master storytellers. This week The Science Show introduces Radiolab from WNYC in New York City. You can imagine these toads are like, "Dammit, fine. Maybe you can explain this to me, Robert. The reason they're more aroused is that the mom's licking activates the release of adrenaline and noradrenaline in the pup. Radiolab - Transcripts Subscribe 187 episodes Radiolab is on a curiosity bender. And since Kammerer kept the heat up, toads basically had to stay there, in this watery place that they had not evolved for. Through all the training that we had to do and first aid, fingerprinted and had a background check done. Also, thanks to Carl Zimmer whose latest is. If the genes are the bottom floor, then this layer on top is sometimes called the epigenome and that thing can change based on your experiences. SECTION I - Story 1 (Lamark, Krammerer & the Midwife Toads) 1. DESTINY HARRIS: My situation turned out positive. Please welcome Barbara.]. I don't know where she gets that from. Its just That's just how I've always looked at it. It's just a mind crushing tedium. So some scientists began to ask Kammerer if they could look at his toads. I just didnt think. I got to say this is spooky. Well, this is it! If you were a boy in verkalix between the ages of 9 and 12 years old, that's the window, 9 to 12, you're a boy, and then we have one of those terribly rough winters, and you're eating much less than normal. LYNN PALTROW: The fact that you're motivated by a really beautiful, important value, that we want healthy kids, doesn't mean the mechanism you're using is going to end up helping those kids. FRANCES CHAMPAGNE: [laughs[ Exactly. So we did stop. That's against the rules. PAT: Isaiah's in college and Taylor and Brandon, I met them at Barbara's house and they seemed to be fine. ROBERT: Frankly, this makes being 9, 10, 11, 12 like a rather crucial. I asked Barbara about some of the things that she'd said because, to be totally honest, they kind of turn my stomach. I had everybody's abuse on my back and I didn't care how we said it, or how we did it. Where we sought, they will find. JAD: Famine again, and these changes would just bounce back and forth. I got these genes from somewhere, but I kind of feel like she was a surrogate, like she carried me for my real mom. DESTINY HARRIS: As you can see, I like to talk. So moms licking activates serotonin, and it's released onto brain cells in the hippocampus. Listen Feb 3, 2023 Ukraine: The Handoff Pregnancy, and choice, in a war. But at that point just two of the six boys were living at home, Brian and Rodney. I make a difference to her. ROBERT: That's interesting. So its like grandpa's struggle is jumping forward and giving me a leg up? But according to Kammerer, shortly after these toads got into the water, they did begin to evolve fast. [ARCHIVAL Clip, Panel: Well, I mean, Hitler thought that if you were Jewish, that you had given up the right to be a mother and hed sterilize people as well. Like, I mean, as far as positives can go, I think I hit the jackpot. LATIF: This is Radiolab. Were told. PAT: Who gave Destiny her first checkup told Barbara BARBARA HARRIS: That she was delayed and she was always going to be delayed because of her prenatal neglect. LULU: In a very real way, weve been thinking a lot about inheritance. JAD: So then over the next 70 some odd years, Lamarck basically became the poster boy for, like, the big dumb idea, the idea that you want to believe in but that you know isn't true. SAM KEAN: Basically, the midwife toad has a strange habit for toads. Your support helps Radiolab continue to provoke, delight, and keep audiences curious. So that's fun. They won't grow much on the outside, but on the inside That is the time where the sperms are developing. FRANCES CHAMPAGNE: Putting this into context, you know, you have a rat mom and they have about 16 to 20 babies. CARL ZIMMER: Lamarckism pretty much died there. When you first hear about this, what goes through your mind? JAD: And what about the four kids that weren't raised with Barbara? CARL ZIMMER: The right hand had been cut off for microscopic slides. Actually, the idea itself is pretty old. SAM KEAN: And the key point is that it wasnt something inborn in them. All right, I'll get in the water." ROBERT: What a name, you've got to like this guy. ROBERT: I wonder. His example with humans was a blacksmith. I was just pissed at what they have done to my children. It goes back to the 1800s. Not only that. I mean, yes, I might get a great family, but I might not. It might be a mixture. ], I'd like everybody to meet, please, Barbara Harris. FRANCES CHAMPAGNE: You have to do that for five hours a day for six consecutive days. CARL ZIMMER: And he makes a very careful study of this hand. [laughs] "This may hurt you my son, but I'm doing it for my grandchildren.". PAT: Just a little. That's a lot of people. BARBARA HARRIS: I'm not saying that these women are dogs but they're not acting any more responsible than a dog in heat. FRANCES CHAMPAGNE: I mean, when you think of Kammerer, there was a report in science outlining a theory about how Kammerer's toads got these characteristics FRANCES CHAMPAGNE: that invoked these epigenetic inheritance and imprinted genes and it made it plausible. But I'm going to give them a basin of water. ROBERT: But the story he told us begins around 25 years ago. You know? But with the midwife toad, the female Lays her eggs on land and then the male midwife toad comes along And actually kind of sticks them to his back legs, like a bunch of whitish grapes, and then hops around with them basically until they hatch. I mean, when you look at the records, you don't see huge spikes in mortality. Well, that's the good news, but unfortunately there is some bad news here. You're now hearing Lamarck's name invoked these days because there are things beyond genes that we pass down to our children. ROBERT: What do you mean? And right now, I'm student teaching. I mean, the idea that they could be constrained by their DNA, that maybe one of us gave them a bit of DNA thats gonna hold them back? And um Doctors would later explain to Barbara that Destiny's mom had been addicted to drugs while she was pregnant. Take a look, explore and subscribe! My mom needed a girl and, boop! All jokes aside. It's a small forest area, very beautiful. If you've already had a kid, you can be sterilized. That tongue is doing something to the DNA. What do I know? On the one hand, she says, immediately, cheques started arriving. I didn't see them as people. All of our writers are dedicated to their job and do their best to produce all types of academic papers of superior quality. ROBERT: You mean, if you had a starving grandfather, you would be a healthier boy for the because you had a starving grandfather? Here, Kammerer's was saying, "You can do this even on a physical level.". CARL ZIMMER: At this really marvelous place called the Vivarium. FRANCES CHAMPAGNE: I think that's where Lamarck's ideas can be woven in and make some sense. BARBARA HARRIS: No, I've only had somebody call and say they regret that they didn't stay on birth control. BARBARA HARRIS: I decided to have a press conference in my front yard to announce what I was doing. PAT: Right away, people accused her of targeting women at their weakest moment and enabling their drug abuse. This is from 2002. LULU: Did you know there is a part of this show is gonna be like crazy breaking news, like happened yesterday and we already have a deep take on it? Baby, be careful. ], Like you said, when you were in your addiction like she is], I didn't say I'm God. The critical part of this Is that all these changes wake up this little gang of proteins. Please welcome Barbara.]. The lady knew why we were there. JAD: So I guess you could say to yourself, "Seven out of eight of these kids did all right?". How do these simple little traits get passed forward? If you're a starving boy between 9 to 12 years old, now it doesn't matter a whole lot what happens to you after this, your grandchildren will have one-quarter the risk of heart disease. KARIN BORGKVIST LJUNG: Jans Olaf, Hanna Kaiser, Heinrik Venvei. You're finishing college, right? Three of them ended up in other foster homes and seem to have done pretty well, but one of them DESTINY HARRIS: Okay, well of them, don't really know what happened to her. ROBERT: And youre saying that part of the DNA is covered up? She started to wish again that she could have a daughter. I don't know where she gets that from. A given episode might whirl you through science, legal history, and into the home of. CARL ZIMMER: I know what I'll do, I'm going to set up a terrarium for them and I'm going to make it hot, really uncomfortably hot. PAT: That's a lot of people. SAM KEAN: Really slowly, gradually, achingly slowly. Including a particular amphibian that plays a very big part in this story. That the licking is changing the baby's DNA? Yeah, the social worker called and told me the mother had given birth. I mean, it's pretty common but like, here's a for instance, my dad from my entire life had this thing where if someone was whistling, he would. Radiolab is on YouTube! But, I said this to Lynn, "Despite all the things that trouble me about Barbara's program, I feel like what she's trying to do is to stop a kid from getting born into a childhood that's going to suck.". Darwin's theory would have said, you know, 90% of the toads are going to die. Kammerer, for one, was sent off to work as a sensor for the Austrian military. JAD: To fellow named Jean-Baptiste Pierre Antoine de Monet, chevalier de Lamarck. That's it. Or very many of them right at all, but, you know, his basic idea seems to be true. Its a terrible thought! Oh, that's a lot of potatoes. Most toads, he says, love to stay in the water. All rights reserved. ROBERT: Cause we were talking to science writer, Carl Zimmer, and he told us that back in the early 1900s, this tension between Lamarck and Darwin got extra tense. That doesn't matter. So that was just funny to me. Well, I just want to eliminate drug-addicted babies from being born. The kingdom archive. Maybe like those methyl things we were telling you about with the rats. It's such a surprising result. Radiolab is on a curiosity bender. JAD: So, in the end, where do you come down on this? OLOV BYGREN: So they didn't starve to death. Test the outer edges of what you think you know. Visited Kammerer's lab when Kammerer wasn't there. Radiolab believes your ears are a portal to another world. And looking at these swings in fortune, Olov realized what he had here was Because with all this data, he and his team could follow families forward in time, through the generations. Barbara started finding herself on panels with women who'd use drugs during their pregnancies. CARL ZIMMER: He actually named his daughter Lacerta, which is a genus of lizard. ROBERT: [laughs] "This may hurt you my son, but I'm doing it for my grandchildren.". JAD: Because, you know, that Ive got these two kids, right? Because there is more data, more information about the people of verkalix, going farther back into the past than you can find almost anywhere else on Earth. And she says oftentimes the women who want help have a really hard time finding it. Okay, well of them, don't really know what happened to her. JAD: Look, in the end, what do I know? [ARCHIVAL CLIP, Jad Abumrad: Whats that called?]. I want her to be able to look back on her life one day, maybe when she's getting interviewed, I don't know, and be able to say that, "Yes, my mom was there for me 100% without a doubt." In my naive mind, I didn't have a clue what a big deal this was. A lot of times that's not the case. SAM KEAN: He was known for going around and giving, what he called, his big show lectures, where he would wow whole audiences of people. You mean, if you had a starving grandfather, you would be a healthier boy for the because you had a starving grandfather? PAT: And by this point, she's 37 years old. JAD: When rats have more of this protein, they will act more motherly. ROBERT: So, of course the folks at the Vivarium asked him. If Barbara had gotten to Destiny's birth mom, Destiny, Kalia, this moment, none of it would exist. Its just That's just how I've always looked at it. PAT: As Barbara made the rounds on the daytime talk shows, the reaction was split right down the middle. [foreign language]. By all accounts a pretty good-looking guy. So for Isaiah, being born was like just being cut off. BARBARA HARRIS: Barbara Harris. ROBERT: If you were a great rat mommy, what would you be doing with your rat baby? ], [ARCHIVAL CLIP, BARBARA HARRIS: That's their choice, but the babies don't have a choice.]. SAM KEAN: He extended this idea to people. LULU: A really good radiolab about this called Inheritance. BARBARA HARRIS: After I've gotten to know so many of the women. JAD: If they see methyl groups sitting on that bit of DNA, they are pissed. No, she was an oops kid. ROBERT: Truth is, we dont know precisely how this happens but somehow the experience of starvation marks the DNA. In this episode, originally aired in 2012, we put nature and nurture on a collision course and discover how outside forces can find a way inside us, and change not just our hearts and minds, but the basic biological blueprint that we pass on to future generations.Support Radiolab by becoming a member of The Lab today. You know? To any drug-addicted woman who will agree to have no more babies. We ended up talking to the guy who did the work. ROBERT: Which turn out to be an interesting thing to look at it because the people in verkalix who were farming SAM KEAN: Trying to eke a living out of the soil. SAM KEAN: The sperm carries these marks to the next generation. It's off-limits. Were just talking about toad, I thought. Yes, but creating an assumption that there is a class of people who don't deserve to procreate, who aren't worthy of procreating the human race, leads you down a path that we should have great concern about. What do I know? I mean, yes, I might get a great family, but I might not. Life is hard.". I have to be creative.". Each stone represents a radioisotope by means of a. It means what if grandpa has a bad day? And Barbara and Destiny walked me out to my car. When Kammerer published his results initially, a bunch of scientists immediately began to say CARL ZIMMER: "Wait a minute, hold on here, it would be nice if life was like that but life isn't like that.
