Which I find kind of hard to believe but, then again, I must have read at least 100 news articles as I was reporting this story. It's a little odd, actually. But then, a few years would pass, crops would bounce back. BARBARA HARRIS: Light bothered him, noise bothered him. He had one remaining midwife toad. [ARCHIVAL CLIP, BARBARA HARRIS: I feel that they should all be sterilized. KARIN BORGKVIST LJUNG: Yes, he was retarded. And since Kammerer kept the heat up, toads basically had to stay there, in this watery place that they had not evolved for. That's the stuff that makes you you. The little baby that we keep hearing in the background of everything. What does that mean, he was an idiot? These are women who love their children, who sought help.

Something happens on the molecular level. LULU: In a very real way, weve been thinking a lot about inheritance. So almost instantaneously, the mother's tongue has reached into the baby's brain cells. LATIF: Its so good that it makes you not want to trash the house, you know what I mean? MICHAEL MEANEY: That activates maternal behavior. What's he talking about? PAT: Which I find kind of hard to believe but, then again, I must have read at least 100 news articles as I was reporting this story. ROBERT: If you were a great rat mommy, what would you be doing with your rat baby? DESTINY HARRIS: That's my little girl. JAD: In just two generations, these toads seem to have done something that should have taken, I don't know, 50, 100 generations? JAD: Because, you know, that Ive got these two kids, right? CARL ZIMMER: He was revealing it with experiments. Are you nine? I want to start with a parental day dream for a second. JAD: Well, its offensive. In my naive mind, I didn't have a clue what a big deal this was. She's not offering treatment, she's not offering counseling, and there are programs that do that. ], [ARCHIVAL Clip, News: This could mean sterilization, it could mean getting an IUD.]. At once and we're watching 40 litters at a time. Were there any consequences? Birth mother's name was actually the same as me, so, Barbara. Because you begin with a mother's lick that ends up with a deep, deep change in the baby, not just the good, warm, fuzzy feeling, but a fundamental shift in who that baby is, and who that baby will be. So that's fun. Hosted by Lulu Miller and Latif Nasser, Radiolab is a podcast known for using innovative sound design to ask deep questions and investigative journalism to get the answers. JAD: And what about the four kids that weren't raised with Barbara? ROBERT: I think that makes a lot of sense. Completely answer all questions in Section I AND Section IV. CARL ZIMMER: He's not just talking about toads anymore, he's gone way beyond toads. ROBERT: So then the one that's in trouble, so thats one of one of eight? He was just You know, most babies are kinda peaceful, he was never really peaceful. You must have internet access to do this). About 30 years ago-. SAM KEAN: I guess the way I would look at it is that you can change your environment a lot more easily than you can change your genes. DESTINY HARRIS: No, she was an oops kid. She and I snuck away from the children into her office. SAM KEAN: I should add too. Move on to the next cage, yes, no? JAD: Theyd basically starve. PAT: Destiny says before she was born, her mom had four other girls. But at that point just two of the six boys were living at home, Brian and Rodney. LULU: And were trying to think about how do we keep it the same in a lot of ways, but also how do we let it grow into something beyond what it was originally built to be. Then choose either Section II OR Section III and answer all questions in that . PAT: That's a lot of people. The way she saw it, the state, the federal government, somebody Should say, "You're not doing this. This whole toad thing, to the Darwinian faction, it didn't scan really. JAD: Look, in the end, what do I know? She's 22 now and she's never even met her birth mom. And she's a complete nut. ROBERT: Instead of dying at 40, I'd live to 70? 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. You can do this. He's the guy who told us about Olov's work. Radiolab is on YouTube! JAD: Who now works at Columbia University. JAD: 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. Yeah, there you go. The show in in the radiolab eye sky transcript of was interested in his life In And bring the eye Amount of long-distance Runners and they had a Radiolab podcast about it and they. That you're just renaming it. Well, yep, that is so true. JAD: And then, Michael just launched into this thing. Like Id be like, Weve got the keys, were gonna trash the house., LATIF: 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.. PAT'S MOM: Radiolab is produced by Jad Abumrad. Not been born at all. JAD: And I know I cant change those genes. So thats the reason, of course, that we work with rats because we can get inside the brain. Move on to the next cage, yes, no? He extended this idea to people. JAD: Thanks to Frances Champagne and Michael Meany and Sam Kean, who writes about Paul Kammerer in his book, The Violinist's Thumb. PAT: Yeah. PAT: This, of course, is Destiny. I said, "No, no, that's okay." Yes. You picked him up right from the hospital? PAT: So by now it's 1994, and Barbara is thinking PAT: You know? So she told me Barbara had another baby and BARBARA HARRIS: Did we want it? A lot of times that's not the case. PAT: Barbara has this drawer in her desk. You know what they're going to go do with that money. SAM KEAN: Because it would reflect badly on the Soviet state. But I'm going to give them a basin of water. All the babies I had seen and all the people that have called me to tell me about their babies that were damaged. This is what's called the slow growth period. I said, "No, no, that's okay." And I know fate is gonna give them a couple random mutations in those genes. JAD: Now the Sweden story from our last segment left us both feeling a little strange. Its gonna get messy. We actually sent our friend, Pejk Malinovski, to the archives in Stockholm to check it out. Well, its offensive. ROBERT: That's Sam Kean again. Kick off certain hormonal systems. Where we began, they will accomplish. Full disclosure, she's Robert's sister's partner. A few years later, there'd be a harsh winter. [1] Radiolab was founded by Jad Abumrad and Robert Krulwich in 2002. Not usually because it upsets people and I'm Canadian. BARBARA HARRIS: And when I found out the bill didn't pass, I just thought, "I have to come up with something else. Your grade will be based on how complete and correct your answers are. She should be with me. It all came down to this jar with his toad in it. I make a difference to her. Once their born, their genes are fixed and change does not happen in a generation or two. What happens when moms lick their pups is that the pup beccomes aroused. JAD: That's against the rules. LULU: So far. [ARCHIVAL Clip, News: Who, together, pledged more than $150,000 to her program.]. CARL ZIMMER: Kammerer puts on a suit and he walks off into the mountains SAM KEAN: Outside Vienna on a Rocky mountain trail. Your support helps Radiolab continue to provoke, delight, and keep audiences curious. Well, yep, that is so true. Thank you so much for your interest in Radiolab. They told me a bunch of these stories, one of them involving, well DESTINY HARRIS: I don't have the biggest boobies in the world. So moms licking activates serotonin, and it's released onto brain cells in the hippocampus. You have to look at one cage, say, are they licking? And Barbara is not offering that. So that was just funny to me. LYNN PALTROW: I think I was really horrified and terrified. So much can happen after that. 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.". ROBERT: I think what's weird here is that is that we started trying to make a difference in our children and now we're surprise attacked by our grandparents. And Barbara and Destiny walked me out to my car. 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. My name is Jean Kean. Well, so here's the thing. 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?"

But this was a really, really tough place to grow up. Accuracy and availability may vary. Were told. Like shed give the women a choice. Hosted by Jad Abumrad and Robert Krulwich, Radiolab is a " show about curiosity " that examines science, history, and philosophy to answer the big questions about life. JAD: His reputation was that he could get inside the mind of, say, a salamander and know just what it wanted to eat. ", PAT: In other words, "Could I pay women who have drug problems to stop having babies?". Anyways, God bless you. PAT: And at a certain point, I noticed over my shoulder Barbara's crouched down and she's got her phone out and she's taking a picture of this just perfect little scene. And I didn't find a single case of someone saying that they regretted what they've done. SAM KEAN: Basically, the midwife toad has a strange habit for toads. ], [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. LATIF: And as of 11:01 a.m. on Tuesday, when we're recording this, we have not broken the show. You're not leaving this hospital unless you have long-term birth control.". OLOV BYGREN: Something happens on the molecular level. In any case, these books tell you when each of these folks died, how they died. Except he had one. BARBARA HARRIS: And I was a waitress, I worked for IHOP for over 30 years. So he actually went to Vienna. Whole lifetime of stretching. Kalia came too. Thyroid hormones then get into the brain and they turn on certain neural chemical signals. You just haven't evolved for this and there's no way you can, at least not quickly. In pictures, he has that, you know, that crazy Einstein fuzzy hair thing. And in1923, he actually comes to England. So he actually went to Vienna. When rats have more of this protein, they will act more motherly. 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. ROBERT: Because the Soviets, they believe in Karl Marx's idea that human beings were an improvable species, that if you can change the conditions around people, you change the people.

SECTION I - Story 1 (Lamark, Krammerer & the Midwife Toads) 1. 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. And I've got say, I'm feeling pretty good about this show so far. I wouldn't want to put it up to chance, because what kind of life is that? We neuter them.". I'm Sam Kean's dad. Right below the headlines says, "Scientist's great discovery which may change us all.". 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. JAD: These were kids that didn't end up with Barbara? Knock it right off the DNA. CARL ZIMMER: It all came down to this jar with his toad in it. It is hosted by Lulu Miller and Latif Nasser. The team that creates each episode, including hosts Jad Abumrad and Robert Krulwich, are master storytellers. And Barbara and Destiny walked me out to my car.

I like you, I get the sense that there's a lot of warmth in you. "To Whom It May Concern, I have been doing very good. You just have to weigh it, is it worth it? DESTINY HARRIS: And right now, I'm student teaching. [chuckles]. Meaning that they had less incidence of heart disease? ], [ARCHIVAL CLIP, Jad Abumrad: Yeah, lets read.]. Destiny has, what, three brothers and sisters that also were raised with her? PAT: And even though they look basically nothing alike. SAM KEAN: And the key point is that it wasnt something inborn in them. That's it. JAD: You got your good parents and your bad parents. I mean, yes, I might get a great family, but I might not.

I agree with Lynn, that this program does perpetuate a stereotype. That's really impressive. And so, her name is Kalia. Theyd basically starve. Radiolab is supported in part by the National Science Foundation and by the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, enhancing public understanding of science and technology in the modern world. Covid has disrupted the most basic routines of our days and nights. Kammerer thought, "Wow.". 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. One time, and I'm on flighter. CARL ZIMMER: mouse or rat? ROBERT: So what is the licking doing then? PAT: Because she says as soon as she saw Destiny BARBARA HARRIS: Sat her on my lap, with her little dress on and her little curly hair. Well, the DNA, the RNA, micro-RNAs, histone. If . And eventually, over the millenia, what youd get, is a creature with a very long neck. They willed the neck to get longer, the muscles to get bigger. ROBERT: You wonder, where did that come from? CARL ZIMMER: I just have to read this to you. And he makes a very careful study of this hand. To fellow named Jean-Baptiste Pierre Antoine de Monet, chevalier de Lamarck. JAD: Because here's the thing, the churches up in verkalix kept incredibly detailed records. JAD: It's off-limits. She did. Maybe you can explain this to me, Robert. DESTINY HARRIS: You missed it. JAD: Michael and Frances looked inside the brains of these rats and what they saw was that the rats who had been licked a lot as babies, they had more stuff in their head.

ROBERT: They would experience these wild changes from harvest to harvest. But along with the support came attacks, particularly as drug-addicted women began to sign up. And when methyl groups stick to that part of the DNA, the maternal instinct is effectively turned off. That tongue is doing something to the DNA. That, in a sort of ass backward way was Michael's question. 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.

Why would that happen? ROBERT: Do you know anything about the other four? Okay, I'm here. Barbara Harris's solution is simpler than anything else out there. 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! Maybe more. I think that's where Lamarck's ideas can be woven in and make some sense. Who are you? That's a lot of people. JAD: Michael was in school and he got interested in a very, very basic question about how things get passed down? When Emil gets to be eight, I'm cutting him off. JAD: That is impossible, so far as we know, but there seems to be this layer on top of the genes. PAT: And in 1989, when the story we're telling now started, she was living in California, in Orange County. Barbara tried to get a law passed requiring just that. He'd fall asleep and just wake up screaming. [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. OLOV BYGREN: Looking for patterns in cardiovascular diseases, high blood pressure, and such. Can you say oh my goodness? They both say that they actually often forget that they're not biologically related. My mom needed a girl and, boop! That the licking is changing the baby's DNA? Once a kid is born, their genetic fate is pretty much sealed. [laughs] "This may hurt you my son, but I'm doing it for my grandchildren.". Radio Lab: Into the Brain of a Liar March 6, 2008 We all lie once a day or so, according to most studies. But she says, you can tell right away, just by looking, that some rat moms don't lick their kids a lot. Knock it right off the DNA. Life is hard.". 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. I'm almost done. You're finishing college, right? PAT WALTERS: Mamaw was the one I'd come to see. 10 Controversial And Thought-Provoking 'Radiolab' Episodes.

According to Frances, it's not just sitting up there perfectly preserved, it's in the middle of the cell, it's crowded. And at first, it didn't go so well because, you know, if you're a land toad and you're trying to have sex in the water, it's kind of hard. Please welcome Barbara.].
