radiolab inheritance transcript

BARBARA HARRIS: "She's born and tested positive for PCP crack and heroin." BARBARA HARRIS: And I was a waitress, I worked for IHOP for over 30 years. LYNN PALTROW: I think I was really horrified and terrified. And I've got say, I'm feeling pretty good about this show so far. I'm so proud and I have four years clean. Meaning that they had less incidence of heart disease? Visit our website terms of use at www.wnyc.org for further information. Well, I just want to eliminate drug-addicted babies from being born. ROBERT: He was a born nurturer and he adored animals. What a name, you've got to like this guy. But what exactly Maybe you can explain this to me, Robert. These are women who love their children, who sought help. The critical part of this JAD: Is that all these changes wake up this little gang of proteins. ], [ARCHIVAL Clip, Panel: Sterilized? PAT: It would be wrong to assume the women Barbara talks about on TV [ARCHIVAL CLIP, BARBARA HARRIS: These women don't just have one and two babies. She's 22 now and she's never even met her birth mom. MICHAEL MEANEY: Kick off certain hormonal systems. He's 22, 23, and he already had this reputation for being amazing at keeping animals alive, that otherwise would just die. SAM KEAN: In a little community called verkalix. 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. And, I mean, I have straight A's and I'm making it work. ROBERT: Frankly, this makes being 9, 10, 11, 12 like a rather crucial. 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. Wow. Who are you? Anyways, God bless you. JAD: No, not brain cells. You've got these toads who hate water. ], I'd like everybody to meet, please, Barbara Harris. Plus, you know, Lamarck didn't get all the biological details right. That's what I remember her saying. But along with the support came attacks, particularly as drug-addicted women began to sign up. JAD: But that you supposedly can't get to. SAM KEAN: The sperm carries these marks to the next generation. Like, I mean, as far as positives can go, I think I hit the jackpot. It's a little odd, actually. ], [ARCHIVAL CLIP, BARBARA HARRIS: Probably racist.]. They both say that they actually often forget that they're not biologically related. Just sing. That's interesting. And the key point is that it wasnt something inborn in them. I mean, when you look at the records, you don't see huge spikes in mortality. 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. PAT: The moment I really felt like, "Whoa," was when we started talking about PAT: The little baby that we keep hearing in the background of everything. BARBARA HARRIS: He wasn't a little happy baby. JAD: It's writer, Sam Kean again, and here's, he says, what you need to know about the midwife toad. RADIOLAB Podcast "Inheritance" Homework Assignment Name: Rohan Desai PSUID: 9 6241 8529 Listen to the first three stories of the "Inheritance" Radiolab Podcast (Control + click on link to access podcast. JAD: The sneaky idea here is that the blacksmiths, the giraffes, they made it happen. BARBARA HARRIS: Since birth. And I told Destiny I was thinking about this and asked her about it. OLOV BYGREN: The results are quite obvious. All rights reserved. PAT: So by now it's 1994, and Barbara is thinking PAT: You know? JAD: Well, its offensive. LYNN PALTROW: Tell me what your image of a drug-using pregnant woman is. Barbara tried to get a law passed requiring just that. JAD: And thats wrong [laughs].Thats not how it works. I make a difference to her. But she says she doesn't feel that way anymore. More brain cells? You cant say that. I wont say too much more except it includes one of my favorite kind of scientific parables that like Ive ever heard. KARIN BORGKVIST LJUNG: Yes, he was retarded. JAD: And what about the four kids that weren't raised with Barbara? Also, thanks to Carl Zimmer whose latest is Evolution: Making Sense of Life. CARL ZIMMER: He hit the lecture circuit and he hit it big. BARBARA HARRIS: They were seven and eight at the time. I mean, for one thing, Barbara's white and Destiny's black. He thought that because theyre swinging hammers all day, they got big bulky muscles, and then theyd pass the muscles to their children. 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. PAT: 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 DESTINY HARRIS: Not feeling the way I'm supposed to feel. I said, "This will be the last one. Started with the tongue. Hi, this is Will, calling from Northumberland, England. JAD: And very often, one of them will just go crashing into the DNA and it'll stick there like a barnacle or a glob of peanut butter. [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. She and I snuck away from the children into her office. That doesn't matter. 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. And what about the four kids that weren't raised with Barbara? He was just You know, most babies are kinda peaceful, he was never really peaceful. The neural chemical signal that gets activated during licking, is serotonin. So its like grandpa's struggle is jumping forward and giving me a leg up? Once a kid is born, their genetic fate is pretty much sealed. And so, you could only see one nuptial pad, and it all comes down to thisand all of that was just about to fall apart. Because he couldn't hold formula down. PAT: She just knew, "This is my daughter.". I just got custody of my eight-year-old son. Really slowly, gradually, achingly slowly. Radiolab Society & Culture Science Latest Transcripts What Up Holmes? PAT: All these women who have so many babies and never try to seek drug treatment. 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. CARL ZIMMER: At this really marvelous place called the Vivarium. LULU: Oh actually, real thing, before we go, Latif. And, I mean, I have straight A's and I'm making it work. She was thinking Can I offer these women money to use birth control? He thought that you could kind of engineer societies by changing the environment. You're slippery, partner's slippery. CARL ZIMMER: She carries your kids for nine months and you're like, "That poor male toad.". [ARCHIVAL CLIP, Jad Abumrad: Whats this letter right here? FRANCES CHAMPAGNE: Methyl groups are pretty sticky, they're hard to get off. LYNN PALTROW: Are there people whose drug use is so out of control they can't parent? Knock it right off the DNA. What they decided to do first was to try to figure out which rat was which, which meant, interestingly, counting all the legs. They began to grow these all puffy things on their hands. That's what I remember her saying. fact checked by Jamie Frater. This is what's called the slow growth period. I'm Executive Director and Founder of National Advocates for Pregnant Women. SAM KEAN: Except he had one. Riksarkivet. Four or five steps later, we are in JAD: So almost instantaneously, the mother's tongue has reached into the baby's brain cells. Your support helps Radiolab continue to provoke, delight, and keep audiences curious. FRANCES CHAMPAGNE: At once and we're watching 40 litters at a time. On the one hand, she says, immediately, cheques started arriving. She's not offering treatment, she's not offering counseling, and there are programs that do that. That's a lot of people. JAD: That's against the rules. I had everybody's abuse on my back and I didn't care how we said it, or how we did it. JAD: Its an idea thats been kicking around for me since my kids were born. He stuffed himself silly; 9, 10, 11 years old, so he's a happy grandpa, you the grandson, you then would have. What can't you? What do I know? So were getting close to the moment of truth, because there it is. Its a terrible thought! You know? Like, "How did this happen? like they could be whistling six tables over in a restaurant and he would turn around and be like, "Stop that," it was like it was scraping his very nerves. 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? Is it a big town? ROBERT: By all accounts a pretty good-looking guy. SAM KEAN: Basically, the midwife toad has a strange habit for toads. Now, according to Carl, your genes are still fixed. And um Doctors would later explain to Barbara that Destiny's mom had been addicted to drugs while she was pregnant. JAD: In just two generations, these toads seem to have done something that should have taken, I don't know, 50, 100 generations? And I didn't find a single case of someone saying that they regretted what they've done. PAT: That's really impressive. I mean, for one thing, Barbara's white and Destiny's black. JAD: Wait, when you say they can choose to be sterilized, you mean permanent? JAD: So its like grandpa's struggle is jumping forward and giving me a leg up? Although, you know, sometimes that your grandfather's suffering helps you. LULU: A really good radiolab about this called Inheritance. JAD: I tell you what I'm going to do though. Radiolab is on YouTube! ], [ARCHIVAL Clip, Daytime Talkshow: I'd like everybody to meet, please, Barbara Harris. Olov told us, take heart disease. But it failed. [laughs] "This may hurt you my son, but I'm doing it for my grandchildren.". CARL ZIMMER: To build these terrariums and aquariums and stock them with animals. I'm graduating in December. Thats like, I mean, that seems like a thing that would be frightening. By all accounts a pretty good-looking guy. CARL ZIMMER: But but theres like some hope here because JAD: Okay, all right, this is interesting. That was nice. That's a lot of people. There's going to be this massacre of toads and only a few lucky ones are going to survive. That's 9, 10, 11. PAT: And I told Destiny I was thinking about this and asked her about it. Radiolab believes your ears are a portal to another world. Kammerer thought, "Wow.". 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. Lynn has become one of Barbara's fiercest critics. When you first hear about this, what goes through your mind? Here, Kammerer's was saying, "You can do this even on a physical level.". And Destiny says she doesn't really care DESTINY HARRIS: I got these genes from somewhere, but I kind of feel like she was a surrogate, like she carried me for my real mom. Yeah, there you go. And so, her name is Kalia. About 30 years ago-. And in one day, we can imagine, he gets curious. I don't have the biggest boobies in the world. 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. JAD: Well think about what makes proteins. A given episode might whirl you through science, legal history, and into the home of someone halfway across the world. 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. 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. [laughs[ So yeah, it's embarrassing, but I believe everything happens for a reason. And then that baby would stretch and stretch, and it would give a little more stretching to its baby. ROBERT: Well, so here's the thing. You just have to weigh it, is it worth it? Oh actually, real thing, before we go, Latif. I wonder how much you believe in it. Kinda makes me claustrophobic. We had an expression here, "Dig where you stand." SAM KEAN: It seemed to have been passed down for multiple generations. 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. Thyroid hormones then get into the brain and they turn on certain neural chemical signals. 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. CARL ZIMMER: You're now hearing Lamarck's name invoked these days because there are things beyond genes that we pass down to our children. JAD: Turning down a job that they'd offered him. 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 Jad Abumrad, Latif Nasser and Lulu Miller, each episode focuses on a topic of a scientific and philosophical nature, through stories, interviews, and thought experiments.. I already knew that if I ever got a little girl, I was going to name her Destiny. You know, just take a little peek for themselves, and every time Kammerer said no, they were his specimens. JAD: Actually, the idea itself is pretty old. SAM KEAN: Well, he thought it might have been an assistant trying to frame him because he was Jewish. In this episode, originally aired in 2012, we put nature and nurture on a co How do those cycles perpetuate? 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. They decided to explore this question, They thought, "Let's just see if we can figure out how it is the rat mothers pass down their parenting skills?". When they got another call from a social worker saying that same mother, Destiny's birth mother, had given birth to another child. And all over the political spectrum, from Hollywood lefties to social conservatives. 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. JAD: He works at the Karolinska Institute in Sweden where he studies population data. MICHAEL MEANEY: Yep, Im a professor in the faculty of medicine at McGill University in Montreal. Radio Lab: Into the Brain of a Liar March 6, 2008 We all lie once a day or so, according to most studies. You picked him up right from the hospital? You know? SAM KEAN: Really slowly, gradually, achingly slowly. JAD: I mean, were not gonna do that ourselves. ROBERT: Well, lets not get too excited too fast because we have a story to tell and this tale leaves me a little queasy. This whole toad thing, to the Darwinian faction, it didn't scan really. They like to hang out in the water and the females like to lay eggs in the water. I'm the founder and director of Project Prevention. That's how I've always looked at it. When rats have more of this protein, they will act more motherly. And you have to bear in mind that at this point, it only had one hand left. JAD: Just to be sure, we asked Frances Champagne what she thinks of this data. 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. PAT: And by this point, she's 37 years old. This, of course, is Destiny. ], What's the worst thing you have been called by one of your critics?]. LATIF: And as of 11:01 a.m. on Tuesday, when we're recording this, we have not broken the show. If you start smoking when you're 10, 11 something like that, you end up having children with more problems. So he actually went to Vienna. These were kids that didn't end up with Barbara? Let me say this again. You dont really say it to yourself that way, but yeah. But at that point just two of the six boys were living at home, Brian and Rodney. JAD: I find myself thinking like, Okay, I know these kids have their genes half from me, half from my wife. MICHAEL MEANEY: That activates maternal behavior. Nice, cool water. All right, I'll get in the water." Kinda makes me claustrophobic. 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. I wonder. And well just let the old yahoos from whom we inheritedededed inherited it take it away. To build these terrariums and aquariums and stock them with animals. ], [ARCHIVAL CLIP, BARBARA HARRIS: I'm going to go out into the streets and offer addicted women money to use birth control. Thank you so much for your interest in Radiolab. I know I've been joking a lot in this interview, but I mean it with all that I am. 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." You can imagine these toads are like, "Dammit, fine. As to diabetes, it was a four-fold risk. And then, Michael just launched into this thing. 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? BARBARA HARRIS: I'm not saying that these women are dogs but they're not acting any more responsible than a dog in heat. Harris says her program, children requiring a caring community, or CRACK], Can prevent thousands of unwanted births to drug-addicted women. JAD: People can't just will themselves into a more perfect form. Very easily. 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. Who, together, pledged more than $150,000 to her program.]. Can you say oh my goodness? The connection between trees Normally trees from different species are competitors. DESTINY HARRIS: No, she was an oops kid. The reason they're more aroused is that the mom's licking activates the release of adrenaline and noradrenaline in the pup. Sample Page; ; Just don't have any more children because, at that point, I didn't really know any of them. I mean, yes, I might get a great family, but I might not. I didn't see them as people. ROBERT: I wonder. When you explore what makes people tick or how the universe . CARL ZIMMER: Well, there was an expert on reptiles named G. Kingsley Noble. And these effects, in fact, were so strong that you could trace it to the grandfather. 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." I just didnt think. It's a small forest area, very beautiful. Thats just the cold logic of Darwinian evolution. SAM KEAN: This is what's called the slow growth period. Lots of money. That tongue is doing something to the DNA. What's he talking about? CARL ZIMMER: Well, it was a zoo where there was all sorts of experiments going on. 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. And again, Barbara thinks, "Come on, but if this little girl is here, she should be with her brother and sister. Never mind, you're stuck with small boobies." Barbara Harris's solution is simpler than anything else out there. Radiolab: From Tree to Shining Tree LISTEN Three guests: Suzanne Simard, a professor of forest ecology and teacher at the University of British Columbia, Jennifer Frazer, a science writer that has a blog called The Artful Amoeba, and Roy Halling, a mycologist. He works at the Karolinska Institute in Sweden where he studies population data. And that number, by the way, has grown a lot. Okay, all right, this is interesting. ROBERT: What a name, you've got to like this guy. Its just That's just how I've always looked at it. Lamarck said, You wanna know how a giraffe got its long neck?, One day this giraffe, mother giraffe, lets say, was looking up in the tree and saw some fruit, and had to stretch he neck, and stretch again. But according to Kammerer, shortly after these toads got into the water, they did begin to evolve fast. ROBERT: So you think you can get deep down? JAD: They suddenly had to get by on a tiny fraction of the food that they were used to. A really good radiolab about this called Inheritance. ROBERT: Truth is, we dont know precisely how this happens but somehow the experience of starvation marks the DNA. OLOV BYGREN: It was very interesting discovery. And he makes a very careful study of this hand. OLOV BYGREN: Well, the DNA, the RNA, micro-RNAs, histone. PAT: And as soon as she got there to pick him up, she could tell that something was wrong. ], You get them $200 each, which they can spend on crack. She and I snuck away from the children into her office. All the babies I had seen and all the people that have called me to tell me about their babies that were damaged. And he was going through withdrawal. You're obviously a great mom, but that feels cold to me. PAT: And all over the political spectrum, from Hollywood lefties to social conservatives. He's the guy who told us about Olov's work. I mean, they didn't have porridge. In my naive mind, I didn't have a clue what a big deal this was. 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. But I take it that we have more control over our destinies and our kids' destinies than we would've thought. JAD: Everybody we talked to seems to think there's something really interesting going on here. JAD: So he's got to live his life as a toad with all this baggage on him? That doesn't matter. ", PAT: In other words, "Could I pay women who have drug problems to stop having babies?". 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. Inheritance | Radiolab Podcast 4,710 views Apr 8, 2022 Radiolab 43.8K subscribers From the Radiolab podcast: How your grandfather's diet can affect your lifespan, heart health and even. I mean, youre just youre saying a lot of things that are really impressive. 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. Big questions are. And Destiny was in the other room, sleeping or something, I'm not sure. She said, "Thank you so much for the gift, I bought my son an excavator truck, remote control and some summer outfits." 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. DESTINY HARRIS: Taylor Swift's Never Getting Back Together. JAD: [laughs] Youre just just judo, that's all this is. Well, her explanation is that these women are having, in her terms, litters of damaged babies and society forever will be responsible for them. ROBERT: I think that makes a lot of sense. FRANCES CHAMPAGNE: Putting this into context, you know, you have a rat mom and they have about 16 to 20 babies. So moms licking activates serotonin, and it's released onto brain cells in the hippocampus. The right hand had been cut off for microscopic slides. All jokes aside. JAD: These are four kids from the same birth mother? JAD: Theyd basically starve. [chuckles]. So. Radiolab 50.3K subscribers Subscribe 29 1.5K views 6 months ago On this episode, the case that pushed one Supreme Court justice to a nervous breakdown, brought a boiling feud to a head, and. At the Vivarium, as the name suggests, they have live animals. [laughs] Can you say, "Never, ever?" ROBERT: But the results are very clear. And to believe anything else, that's naive. I just saw them as child abusers. DESTINY HARRIS: Not been born at all. So that was just funny to me. PAT: The way she saw it, the state, the federal government, somebody BARBARA HARRIS: Should say, "You're not doing this. 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. You must have internet access to do this). Stick around. JAD: To fellow named Jean-Baptiste Pierre Antoine de Monet, chevalier de Lamarck. PAT: Barbara tried to get a law passed requiring just that. In pictures, he has that, you know, that crazy Einstein fuzzy hair thing. If you've already had a kid, you can be sterilized. He was born in 1880 in Vienna, Jewish family. PAT: And I just felt like it was in one of those moments that contains everything that's good about us as people. JAD: So heres the backstory. PAT: And Barbara found herself returning to a thought she'd kind of always had. He extended this idea to people. How was this woman allowed", BARBARA HARRIS: "To walk into the hospital and drop off a damaged baby and just walk away with no consequences?". You know, you've got all these chemicals around. [chuckles]. Also, thanks to Carl Zimmer whose latest is. And thats wrong [laughs].Thats not how it works. Support Radiolab by becoming a member of The Lab today. 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. 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.. What exactly happens between 9 to 12 that makes this big difference? In my naive mind, I didn't have a clue what a big deal this was. FRANCES CHAMPAGNE: You have to look at one cage, say, are they licking? And one of them is called the thyroid system. That is a bad way to start a kid's life but that's just the beginning of the kid's life. JEAN KEAN: My name is Jean Kean. This lady right here is still taking drugs and she could be pregnant again next month.]. She was totally an oops kid. That's the stuff that makes you you. PAT: Lynn has become one of Barbara's fiercest critics. So much can happen after that. People can't just will themselves into a more perfect form. 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.". SMITTY HARRIS: He was just You know, most babies are kinda peaceful, he was never really peaceful. But I'm going to give them a basin of water. And if you were eating a whole lot between 9 and 12, one-quarter. That is impossible, so far as we know, but there seems to be this layer on top of the genes. PAT: This great. She asked my opinion and that's what I'm giving. JAD: In those books you can read everything about the citizens of verkalix, going back hundreds of years.
