So that's fun. 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?

So then the one that's in trouble, so thats one of, So I guess you could say to yourself, "Seven out of eight of these kids did all right?". I tell you what I'm going to do though. JAD: Because while you might have a lot of influence, you know, genetically speaking, over your kids and their kids, you don't seem to have a lot of control. PAT: Barbara started finding herself on panels with women who'd use drugs during their pregnancies. It's writer, Sam Kean again, and here's, he says, what you need to know about the midwife toad. And thats wrong [laughs].Thats not how it works. Barbara Harris says she's convinced more than a dozen women], Have accepted her offer to be sterilized in return for money.]. PAT: When you first hear about this, what goes through your mind? Lots of money. Birth mother's name was actually the same as me, so, Barbara. So some scientists began to ask Kammerer if they could look at his toads. But I take it that we have more control over our destinies and our kids' destinies than we would've thought. Once a kid is born, their genetic fate is pretty much sealed. I decided to have a press conference in my front yard to announce what I was doing. JAD: Stretching got into the baby. 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. BARBARA HARRIS: With a child, they give you a whole folder full of information, tells you all about them. Were told. JAD: How do those cycles perpetuate?

I had everybody's abuse on my back and I didn't care how we said it, or how we did it. 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?". SMITTY HARRIS: He was just You know, most babies are kinda peaceful, he was never really peaceful. Your support helps Radiolab continue to provoke, delight, and keep audiences curious. And when she had a baby. BARBARA HARRIS: And I was a waitress, I worked for IHOP for over 30 years. More brain cells? LYNN PALTROW: The women who I've worked with, who've had a history of drug problems, aren't like the examples that she gives. So were getting close to the moment of truth, because there it is. Something happens on the molecular level. How do these simple little traits get passed forward? It means what if grandpa has a bad day? We'll just get one more.". And um BARBARA HARRIS: I had asked for a newborn, so when the social worker called me, she said, "I have this cute little baby girl for you but she's eight months old.

SAM KEAN: If you have a starving daddy, it turns out that the baby actually gets some sort of health benefit. It's just a mind crushing tedium. I ended up finding myself really conflicted about it. She'll be two in January. We ask deep questions and use investigative journalism to get the answers. And rewrite the so-called rules of genetics. This is the verkalix church parish record. It goes back to the 1800s. Nobody's arguing that women should do drugs when they're pregnant. I had a little basketball for her. You know, just take a little peek for themselves, and every time SAM KEAN: Kammerer said no, they were his specimens. The results are obvious to you. That's a lot of people. Brain disease. CARL ZIMMER: He hit the lecture circuit and he hit it big. BARBARA HARRIS: I decided to have a press conference in my front yard to announce what I was doing. We have experts even in very specific fields of study, so you will definitely find a writer who can manage your order. It's such a surprising result. I didn't see them as people. We talked to her for a little while and At a certain point the social worker pulls out a stack of papers. And this idea won him a lot of fans, including, not surprisingly, the Soviets. I mean, when you look at the records, you don't see huge spikes in mortality. Radiolab is on YouTube! More what kind of stuff? And I didn't find a single case of someone saying that they regretted what they've done. JAD: Who now works at Columbia University. ], [ARCHIVAL Clip, News: This could mean sterilization, it could mean getting an IUD.]. ROBERT: 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. PEJK MALINOVSKI: He was an idiot. But then, a few years would pass, crops would bounce back. These people are paying millions of dollars to take care of your children!]. Never mind, you're stuck with small boobies."

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. What you see in the records, is that one year 100 liters. I got these genes from somewhere, but I kind of feel like she was a surrogate, like she carried me for my real mom. Inheritance Radiolab Podcast Genetics Homework Assignment Homework assignment on the Radiolab podcast 'Inheritance', developed for a college-level cell biology class. JAD: So he's got to live his life as a toad with all this baggage on him? ROBERT: So what is the licking doing then? ROBERT: And then the next one after that. A given episode might whirl you through science, legal history, and into the home of someone halfway across the world. She was thinking Can I offer these women money to use birth control? I'm going to graduate with honors and one day I'm going to be able to tell her, "Look, I did this. Baby, be careful. 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 kind of 30 years? Life is hard.". When they got another call from a social worker saying that same mother, Destiny's birth mother, had given birth to another child. [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. DESTINY HARRIS: My situation turned out positive. You mean, if you had a starving grandfather, you would be a healthier boy for the because you had a starving grandfather? ROBERT: Well, lets not get too excited too fast because we have a story to tell and this tale leaves me a little queasy. And if you were eating a whole lot between 9 and 12, one-quarter.

When Emil gets to be eight, I'm cutting him off. It was something they acquired during their lifetime. SECTION I - Story 1 (Lamark, Krammerer & the Midwife Toads) 1. I mean, yes, I might get a great family, but I might not. Nobody has a right to do that to a baby. LULU: In a very real way, weve been thinking a lot about inheritance. It would be wrong to think that they represent all women who use drugs while they're pregnant. JAD: Well, its offensive. Do you have any theories for how this tongue is tickling the DNA, or whatever it's doing? Riksarkivet. I wont say too much more except it includes one of my favorite kind of scientific parables that like Ive ever heard. And that advantage, whatever it was, because it starts with one individual, and then it gets passed onto the kids, and then onto their kids, it would take a long, long, long time to spread through the whole population because, generally, that's how evolution works. Is it a big town? The sneaky idea here is that the blacksmiths, the giraffes, they made it happen. SAM KEAN: And at a time when you're not making the best decisions anyway. Because, you know, that Ive got these two kids, right? As to diabetes, it was a four-fold risk. What does that mean, he was an idiot? PAT: I ended up finding myself really conflicted about it.

DESTINY HARRIS: Kick it to him. 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. ROBERT: [laughs] "This may hurt you my son, but I'm doing it for my grandchildren.". Thank you so much for your interest in Radiolab. You have to do that for five hours a day for six consecutive days. JAD: Thats just the cold logic of Darwinian evolution. JAD: It's writer, Sam Kean again, and here's, he says, what you need to know about the midwife toad. Then, Carl told us about this research that showed Well, he couldn't quite remember the details. Just sing. So for Isaiah, being born was like just being cut off. What can't you? Catch up with new episodes and hear classics from our archive. Okay, you want to say bye? SAM KEAN: And, you know, there was kind of antisemitism growing at this time, so he thought that someone had framed him, and six weeks after Nobel published his results in Nature, Kammerer sent a letter to Moscow. You can imagine these toads are like, "Dammit, fine. Or is it? Just don't have any more children because, at that point, I didn't really know any of them. Sat her on my lap, with her little dress on and her little curly hair. All the babies I had seen and all the people that have called me to tell me about their babies that were damaged. I asked Barbara about some of the things that she'd said because, to be totally honest, they kind of turn my stomach. DESTINY HARRIS: To her, I matter. And one of them is called the thyroid system. JEAN KEAN: My name is Jean Kean. And in1923, he actually comes to England. It happens. She got one. Destiny has, what, three brothers and sisters that also were raised with her? JAD: These are four kids from the same birth mother? I find myself thinking like, Okay, I know these kids have their genes half from me, half from my wife. JAD: [laughs] Youre just just judo, that's all this is. JAD: These were kids that didn't end up with Barbara? Big questions are. MICHAEL MEANEY: Yep, Im a professor in the faculty of medicine at McGill University in Montreal. But here's what I did not know about DNA. BARBARA HARRIS: I mean, I'm married to a Black man. And as soon as she got there to pick him up, she could tell that something was wrong. And um Doctors would later explain to Barbara that Destiny's mom had been addicted to drugs while she was pregnant. That's against the rules. ROBERT: A few years later, there'd be a harsh winter. JAD: 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. She'll be two in January. Suddenly you're marked. JAD: That is impossible, so far as we know, but there seems to be this layer on top of the genes. Saying the mother had given birth to a baby girl, did we want her? And he said, "Barbara, I'm not buying a school bus." So some scientists began to ask Kammerer if they could look at his toads. So, in the end, where do you come down on this? I said, "No, no, that's okay." 10 Controversial And Thought-Provoking 'Radiolab' Episodes. Where we began, they will accomplish. So, the thought is, when those little boys in verkalix were really, really hungry, their hunger started a chemical process that reached all the way down to the DNA inside the boy's sperm. Sincerely, Jennifer.". JAD: What's he talking about? He had one remaining midwife toad. Michael was in school and he got interested in a very, very basic question about how things get passed down? The show is nationally syndicated and is available as a podcast. And then that baby would stretch and stretch, and it would give a little more stretching to its baby. JAD: Started with the tongue. That's how I've always looked at it. ROBERT: Remind me this. That tongue is doing something to the DNA. See, this is the story of science that doesn't get told. You got your good parents and your bad parents. JAD: You can imagine these toads are like, "Dammit, fine. A little village? I know! They began to grow these all puffy things on their hands. And since Kammerer kept the heat up, toads basically had to stay there, in this watery place that they had not evolved for. KARIN BORGKVIST LJUNG: Cancer. JAD: Turning down a job that they'd offered him. And right now, I'm student teaching. [ARCHIVAL CLIP, toddler: Theres the moon.]. As a parent, you are a tiny blip in a very, very, long story. JAD: I find myself thinking like, Okay, I know these kids have their genes half from me, half from my wife. All right, I'll get in the water." But I take it that we have more control over our destinies and our kids' destinies than we would've thought. JAD: Yeah, like you can help them overcome you. What does it look like? ROBERT: And there were from the beginning. So he actually went to Vienna. JAD: But that you supposedly can't get to. Really slowly, gradually, achingly slowly.

We had an expression here, "Dig where you stand." MICHAEL MEANEY: That's it. BARBARA HARRIS: I already knew that if I ever got a little girl, I was going to name her Destiny. PAT: And that's when things would start to get out of control. And the incredible thing is, those marks stick around. Like, "How did this happen? Even though Destiny's mom was doing all sorts of drugs during her pregnancy and the doctors told Barbara that Destiny was going to be mentally and physically delayed Not feeling the way I'm supposed to feel.

The kingdom archive. And I didn't find a single case of someone saying that they regretted what they've done. BARBARA HARRIS: Aw, you blew him a kiss? In any case, these books tell you when each of these folks died, how they died. It's a little odd, actually. I know! SAM KEAN: Because theyre reaching for the tops of trees. I don't think that puts me in the same category as Hitler. [chuckles], Yes, yes. CARL ZIMMER: He's 22, 23, and he already had this reputation for being amazing at keeping animals alive, that otherwise would just die. I had a little basketball for her. Once their born, their genes are fixed and change does not happen in a generation or two. JAD: And then, Michael just launched into this thing. PAT: This great. "To Whom It May Concern, I have been doing very good. And they had more. 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. [ARCHIVAL Clip, News: Barbara Harris's solution is simpler than anything else out there. ], Like you said, when you were in your addiction like she is], I didn't say I'm God. ROBERT: If you were a great rat mommy, what would you be doing with your rat baby? 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. The sperm carries these marks to the next generation. It's only the mechanisms are not so clear. ROBERT: According to Darwin, life and changes are ruled by chance. That is a bad way to start a kid's life but that's just the beginning of the kid's life. Also, thanks to Carl Zimmer whose latest is. Who are you? ], [ARCHIVAL CLIP, BARBARA HARRIS: That's their choice, but the babies don't have a choice.]. Its so good that it makes you not want to trash the house, you know what I mean? Wow. I could have turned out like some of the other kids. FRANCES CHAMPAGNE: You know, you've got all these chemicals around. One parent stretching isnt going to do anything, see thats the bummer of Darwinian evolution. I wouldn't want to put it up to chance, because what kind of life is that? She actually emailed me afterwards and adjusted that number down a couple hundred. Kinda makes me claustrophobic. ROBERT: And they didn't have these on land? This whole toad thing, to the Darwinian faction, it didn't scan really. JAD: Thanks to Olov Bygren, reporter Pejk Malinovski and KARIN BORGKVIST LJUNG: Karin Borgkvist Ljung, and I'm a senior archivist at the National Archive in Marieberg in Stockholm. The results make it probable that our descendants will learn more quickly what we know well, will execute more easily what we have accomplished with great effort, will be able to withstand what injured us almost to the point of death. Stick around. 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. And then they're going to basically revel at that particular spot and turn on that gene. That's what I remember her saying. JAD: And looking at these swings in fortune, Olov realized what he had here was JAD: Because with all this data, he and his team could follow families forward in time, through the generations. [ARCHIVAL CLIP, Jad Abumrad: Whats this letter right here? ROBERT: So, the thought is, when those little boys in verkalix were really, really hungry, their hunger started a chemical process that reached all the way down to the DNA inside the boy's sperm. You've got these toads who hate water. More information about Sloan at www.sloan.org.]. I had everybody's abuse on my back and I didn't care how we said it, or how we did it. This is Radiolab. If you were a great rat mommy, what would you be doing with your rat baby? Nobody has a right to do that to a baby. You know, when smart people say, you know, "There's no such thing as nature and nurture it's only interaction of the two," You're like, "What the hell does that mean?" PAT: And as soon as she got there to pick him up, she could tell that something was wrong. ROBERT: Is that what you're saying? What they decided to do first was to try to figure out which rat was which, which meant, interestingly, counting all the legs. That you can, somehow, by just being nice to them, reading them stories, or whatever, that you can somehow break them free of all that. 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. JAD: Anyhow, so you got this guy, Paul Kammerer, who's good with animals. JAD: It's off-limits. [foreign language]. Because we had already had to upgrade from a car to a van, from a condo to a home. Your grade will be based on how complete and correct your answers are. As he's doing his rounds, he stops by the midwife toad terrarium, he looks down at that little male toad with grapes stuck to his legs and he wonders, "How adaptable is that little guy?" Like Id be like, Weve got the keys, were gonna trash the house., Anyway, we think about that all the time and I was just talking to Lulu about that and she was just like, You know, theres a radiolab about this.. ROBERT: Inheritance, what you can move on to the next generation and what you can't. That the licking is changing the baby's DNA? CARL ZIMMER: At this really marvelous place called the Vivarium. And Barbara found herself returning to a thought she'd kind of always had. JAD: Or very many of them right at all, but, you know, his basic idea seems to be true. Yeah. You know? So thats the reason, of course, that we work with rats because we can get inside the brain. I'm the founder and director of Project Prevention. The event that really sets this story in motion, the set of events, happened a few months after Barbara had brought Destiny home. The reason they're more aroused is that the mom's licking activates the release of adrenaline and noradrenaline in the pup. Is that too old?" I'm going to graduate with honors and one day I'm going to be able to tell her, "Look, I did this. I'm Sam Kean's dad. And in one day, we can imagine, he gets curious. And again, Barbara thinks, "Come on, but if this little girl is here, she should be with her brother and sister. I already knew that if I ever got a little girl, I was going to name her Destiny. Yes, he was retarded. I said, "This will be the last one. Right below the headlines says, "Scientist's great discovery which may change us all.". Heart disease. But, this hour were gonna fight this sort of sad sack feeling of inevitability and impotence. PAT: And she told Barbara, "There's something you need to know about this baby.". A given episode might whirl you through science, legal history, and into the home of. He had one remaining midwife toad. People can't just will themselves into a more perfect form. Were there any consequences? CARL ZIMMER: This second channel of heredity. That's a lot of people. I just saw them as child abusers. Well, the DNA, the RNA, micro-RNAs, histone. And she told Barbara, "There's something you need to know about this baby.". So yeah, she keeps me busy. This lady right here is still taking drugs and she could be pregnant again next month.]. She's somewhere, but it's not good from what we've heard. CHARLOTTE ZIMMER: Hi, my name is Charlotte Zimmer. You're slippery, partner's slippery. I mean, were not gonna do that ourselves. OLOV BYGREN: The results are there. ROBERT: That's interesting. JAD: His big idea, as you might know, is that what a person does in their lifetime could be directly passed to their kids. JAD: We ended up talking to the guy who did the work. DESTINY HARRIS: Yes. He's not even eating at all. PAT: Because the truth is, you have no idea how these kids are going to turn out. JAD: So I guess you could say to yourself, "Seven out of eight of these kids did all right?". His big idea, as you might know, is that what a person does in their lifetime could be directly passed to their kids. ROBERT: Thats what Darwin says, you cant. LULU: Yeah, thats it. It's against the rules. Did that scare you at all? 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. 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. The bit of DNA that will give this baby when it grows up the instincts to be nice to its baby, and lick that baby. About 30 years ago-. Yeah, like you can help them overcome you. FRANCES CHAMPAGNE: You have to do that for five hours a day for six consecutive days.
