Radiolab: Parasites Transcript For copyright reasons we can't provide a transcript of the WNYC Radiolab feature on parasites. Destiny says one day, she and her mom were in the car, and her mom said She said, "I don't know, you know, maybe they'll grow bigger? The results are there. We talked to her for a little while and At a certain point the social worker pulls out a stack of papers. CARL ZIMMER: I just have to read this to you. LULU: A really good radiolab about this called Inheritance. 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. You know? PAT: And she told Barbara, "There's something you need to know about this baby.". OLOV BYGREN: It's a small forest area, very beautiful. A given episode might whirl you through science, legal history, and into the home of someone halfway across the world. CARL ZIMMER: And he says, "This isn't a nuptial pad, it looks darkened but that's just ink.". Well think about it, this is nature and nurture slamming into each other. This is from 2002. ROBERT: Is that what you're saying? The event that really sets this story in motion, the set of events, happened a few months after Barbara had brought Destiny home. That's how we ended up with four of them. PAT: Lynn has become one of Barbara's fiercest critics. Methyl groups are pretty sticky, they're hard to get off. 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? JAD: Thanks to Frances Champagne and Michael Meany and Sam Kean, who writes about Paul Kammerer in his book, The Violinist's Thumb. Honestly, I think it never seemed like she was anything but my real mom, if that makes sense. ", In other words, "Could I pay women who have drug problems to stop having babies?". 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. Please welcome Barbara.]. We went to the foster home and went in. MICHAEL MEANEY: So thats the reason, of course, that we work with rats because we can get inside the brain. Or is it? And at a time when you're not making the best decisions anyway. CARL ZIMMER: To build these terrariums and aquariums and stock them with animals. Your support helps Radiolab continue to provoke, delight, and keep audiences curious. And when she had a baby. JAD: [expletive] That was awesome. Sat her on my lap, with her little dress on and her little curly hair. I'm Sam Kean's dad. I know! To fellow named Jean-Baptiste Pierre Antoine de Monet, chevalier de Lamarck. He was a born nurturer and he adored animals. BARBARA HARRIS: Because he couldn't hold formula down. Because, you know, that Ive got these two kids, right? These were kids that didn't end up with Barbara? KARIN BORGKVIST LJUNG: Yes, he was retarded. [ARCHIVAL CLIP, Jad Abumrad: Well lets lets read the book first. Radiolab is on YouTube! JAD: Or did I somehow learn that? Kalia came too. His famous example was giraffes. [laughs[ So yeah, it's embarrassing, but I believe everything happens for a reason. And rewrite the so-called rules of genetics. At this really marvelous place called the Vivarium. In any case, these books tell you when each of these folks died, how they died. Life is hard.". PAT: This great. Its something I still think about all the time. 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. These people are paying millions of dollars to take care of your children!]. That was it. SAM KEAN: And when he examined it, he noticed that there was a syringe hole there. Move on to the next cage yes, no? Once their born, their genes are fixed and change does not happen in a generation or two. And again, Barbara thinks, "Come on, but if this little girl is here, she should be with her brother and sister. Taylor Swift's Never Getting Back Together. ROBERT: Are you near the Arctic Circle or OLOV BYGREN: My home village was 10 miles North of polar circle. LATIF: Still, still standing. Maybe they'd try and jump back out, but it was still hot so they'd have to jump back in. PAT: She just knew, "This is my daughter.". She started to wish again that she could have a daughter. She filled out the forms went BARBARA HARRIS: Through all the training that we had to do and first aid, fingerprinted and had a background check done. ROBERT: I wonder. CARL ZIMMER: He was born in 1880 in Vienna, Jewish family. JAD: And thats wrong [laughs].Thats not how it works. And he says, "This isn't a nuptial pad, it looks darkened but that's just ink.". [laughs] We now know that thats not the case. And if you haven't, you can choose to have an IUD, or an implant put in which will last for several years. So some scientists began to ask Kammerer if they could look at his toads. PAT: But at that point just two of the six boys were living at home, Brian and Rodney. So we did stop. He'd fall asleep and just wake up screaming. Kinda makes me claustrophobic. If you start smoking when you're 10, 11 something like that, you end up having children with more problems. MICHAEL MEANEY: Known as transcription factors. So that was just funny to me. You got to kick it back. And then they're going to basically revel at that particular spot and turn on that gene. You know, like if you're abused as a kid, you were more likely to abuse your kid, but still, you got to wonder. 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.. That was amazing. ROBERT: So if they saw somebody who was starving as a kid in 1820, they could then see, "Well, when those people had children and grandchildren, did anything change? PEJK MALINOVSKI: It says "registrera", register. And the incredible thing is, those marks stick around. _. Radiolab is on YouTube! LYNN PALTROW: Are there people whose drug use is so out of control they can't parent? Yeah. That you're just renaming it. LULU: Yeah, thats it. KARIN BORGKVIST LJUNG: Cancer. Kammerer thought, "Wow.". Birth mother's name was actually the same as me, so, Barbara. SAM KEAN: He was really one of the first grand theorists in biology. You've got these toads who hate water. Destiny has, what, three brothers and sisters that also were raised with her? Nobody has a right to do that to a baby. With a child, they give you a whole folder full of information, tells you all about them. And I've got say, I'm feeling pretty good about this show so far. When they got another call from a social worker saying that same mother, Destiny's birth mother, had given birth to another child. And she says oftentimes the women who want help have a really hard time finding it. Still, that's a burden that, he's carrying a big burden there. Okay, well of them, don't really know what happened to her. MICHAEL MEANEY: Yeah, you can't touch that. In this magazine article, Barbara even said, quote, "We don't allow dogs to breed. ROBERT: If you were a great rat mommy, what would you be doing with your rat baby? Harris says her program, children requiring a caring community, or CRACK], Can prevent thousands of unwanted births to drug-addicted women. She asked my opinion and that's what I'm giving. DESTINY HARRIS: Yes. I just have to read this to you. You know what they're going to go do with that money. And those lucky ones, according to Darwin's theory, they would have had to have been born with some random mutation in their genes That gave them an advantage in this situation. He stuffed himself silly; 9, 10, 11 years old, so he's a happy grandpa, you the grandson, you then would have. 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. You're slippery, partner's slippery. JAD: Yes. And so, her name is Kalia. CHARLOTTE ZIMMER: Hi, my name is Charlotte Zimmer. Never mind, you're stuck with small boobies." More information about Sloan at. CARL ZIMMER: Just until they hatch and then 'til they go off. Whole lifetime of stretching. If they see methyl groups sitting on that bit of DNA, they are pissed. Test the outer edges of what you think you know. CARL ZIMMER: So they can grab onto the female and hold tight while they're mating. ROBERT: And youre saying that part of the DNA is covered up? Just to be sure, we asked Frances Champagne what she thinks of this data. I got these genes from somewhere, but I kind of feel like she was a surrogate, like she carried me for my real mom. We have experts even in very specific fields of study, so you will definitely find a writer who can manage your order. CARL ZIMMER: And in1923, he actually comes to England.

CARL ZIMMER: He was mighty skeptical. [ARCHIVAL CLIP, Jad Abumrad: Do you see the owl?]. JAD: Is that a genetic hatred of whistling that I just had? And then they're going to basically revel at that particular spot and turn on that gene. Okay. And I packed up my stuff, it's pretty much done. Let me say this again. She'll be two in January. That kind of 30 years? [chuckles]. Even if it helps, it's horrifying. [chuckles]. So he's got to live his life as a toad with all this baggage on him? We'll just get one more.". But then, a few years would pass, crops would bounce back. He was born in 1880 in Vienna, Jewish family. We spay them. No, not brain cells. We need to oblige the constraints of WNYC copyright arrangements and apologise for any inconveniences caused. So yeah, she keeps me busy. Anyways, God bless you. Oh you said it so much more diplomatically. You can't see that on the radio but, hey, it's a fact of life. You picked him up right from the hospital? And there were from the beginning.

And Destiny was in the other room, sleeping or something, I'm not sure. Could you just tell us what you are doing now? In just two generations, these toads seem to have done something that should have taken, I don't know, 50, 100 generations? If you've already had a kid, you can be sterilized. JAD: So now, the genes can make the proteins that make the rats a good mom? SAM KEAN: This is what's called the slow growth period. He's the guy who told us about Olov's work. What do I know? CARL ZIMMER: Yeah. 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. This is from 2002. Plus, find other cool things we did in the past like miniseries, music videos, short films and animations, behind-the-scenes features, Radiolab live shows, and more.

JAD: So, in the end, where do you come down on this? JAD: What happens, it'll get stuck to one little part of the DNA and now that little bit of DNA FRANCES CHAMPAGNE: Is very difficult to get at. I said, "No, no, that's okay." Not been born at all. 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.

See, this is the story of science that doesn't get told. SAM KEAN: And his lab ended up getting destroyed. I decided to have a press conference in my front yard to announce what I was doing. 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. JAD: Just to be sure, we asked Frances Champagne what she thinks of this data.
