This idea is taken to its fanciful limit in Italo Calvino's story \"The Distance of the Moon\" (from his collection Cosmicomics, translated by William Weaver). Read by Liev Schreiber, the story is narrated by a character with the impossible-to-pronounce name Qfwfq, and tells of a strange crew who jump between Earth and moon, and sometimes hover in the nether reaches of gravity between the two.\u003c/p>\u003cp>This reading was part of a live event hosted by Radiolab and Selected Shorts, and it originally aired on WNYC’s and \u003ca href=\"https://www.symphonyspace.org/selected-shorts\">PRI’s SELECTED SHORTS\u003c/a>, hosted by BD Wong and paired with a Ray Bradbury classic, “All Summer in a Day,” read by musical theater star Michael Cerveris.\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003ci>Our newsletter comes out every Wednesday.

After getting a team of scientists to stand in for death (the grim reaper wasn’t available), we parry and thrust our way through the myriad ways that death comes for us - from falling pianos to evolution’s disinterest in longevity. In the process, we see if we can find a satisfying answer to the question “why do we have to die” and find ourselves face to face with the bitter end of everything that ever existed.\u003cbr />\u003cbr />\u003ci>Special thanks to Wayne Coyne of the Flaming Lips, Steven Nadler, Beth Jarosz, Anjana Badrinarayanan, Shaon Chakrabarti, Bob Horvitz, John K.

Turns out, yes. Writer Patrick Burleigh started going through puberty as a toddler. He had pubic hair before he was two years old and a mustache by middle school. All of this was thanks to a rare genetic mutation that causes testotoxicosis, also known as precocious puberty. From the moment he was born, abnormally high levels of testosterone coursed through his body, just as it had in his father’s body, his grandfather’s body, and his great-grandfather’s body. On this week’s episode, Patrick’s premature coming of age story helps us understand just why puberty is so awkward for all of us, and whether and how it helps forge us into the adults we all become.\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003ci>Special thanks to Craig Cox, Nick Burleigh, and Alyssa Voss at the NIH.\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\u003cp>EPISODE CREDITS:\u003c/p>\u003cp>Reported by - Latif Nasser\u003cbr />with help from - Kelsey Padgett, Ekedi Fausther-Keeys, and Alyssa Jeong Perry\u003cbr />Produced by - Pat Walters, Alex Neason, and Alyssa Jeong Perry \u003cbr />with help from - Ekedi Fausther-Keyes and Matt Kielty\u003cbr />with mixing help from - Arianne Wack\u003cbr />Fact-checking by - Diane A.

His excuse: Border Patrol. Soon more stories of students getting stopped and harassed by Border Patrol started pouring in. So begins the unlikely story of how a handful of Mexican-American high schoolers in one of the poorest neighborhoods in the country stood up to what is today the country’s largest federal law enforcement agency.

In researching border-crosser deaths in the Arizona desert, he noticed something surprising. Sometime in the late-1990s, the number of migrant deaths shot up dramatically and have stayed high since. Jason traced this increase to a Border Patrol policy still in effect, called “Prevention Through Deterrence.”\nIn a series first aired back in 2018, over three episodes, Radiolab investigates this policy, its surprising origins, and the people whose lives were changed forever because of it.Part 1: Hole in the FenceWe begin one afternoon in May 1992, when a student named Albert stumbled in late for history class at Bowie High School in El Paso, Texas. His excuse: Border Patrol. Soon more stories of students getting stopped and harassed by Border Patrol started pouring in. So begins the unlikely story of how a handful of Mexican-American high schoolers in one of the poorest neighborhoods in the country stood up to what is today the country’s largest federal law enforcement agency. They had no way of knowing at the time, but what would follow was a chain of events that would drastically change the US-Mexico border.\nSpecial thanks to Centro de Salud Familiar La Fe, Estela Reyes López, Barbara Hines, Lynn M.

The “Tunguska event,” as it came to be known, was one of the largest extraterrestrial impact events in Earth’s history. But what kind of impact—what exactly struck the earth in the middle of Siberia?—is still up for debate. Producer Annie McEwen dives into one idea that suggests a culprit so mysterious, so powerful, so… tiny, you won’t believe your ears. And stranger still, it may be in you right now.

The trio gets to talking, trying to explain a mysterious set of core samples from the Florida Keys. At some point, they come up with a harebrained idea: put the tree rings next to a seemingly unrelated dataset. Once they do, they notice something that no one has ever noticed before, a force of nature that helped shape modern human history and that is eerily similar to what’s happening on our planet right now. With help from pirates, astronomers and an 80-year-old bartender, this episode will change the way you look at the sun.

But his question got the entire team at \u003cem>Radiolab\u003c/em> wondering, what did his sentence leave out?

To give you a taste of the show, we’re playing her ep on scotohylology, the study of dark matter, with UC-Riverside theoretical particle physicist Flip Tanedo (https://zpr.io/FJWL4NtH5Wsi).

The result, however, was anything but magical.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Unbeknownst to Joseph, by unleashing this spell, he’d earned a lifetime membership into a cursed community. A clan made up of folks who, through no fault of their own, had become nameless and invisible. Today, the story of these unfortunate souls, the dark digital arts that took so much from them and the wizardry needed to give them new life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Special thanks to Sarah Chasins, Tony Hoare, Brian Kernighan and to Patrick McKenzie for writing that wonderful list of assumptions programmers believe about names.

And those sudden superpowers can be a boon when you’re running from a lion. But repeatedly dipping into that well can make you sick, even kill you. Since it feels like there’s been an extra bit of stress going around lately, we decided to replay this episode, originally aired back in 2005, which takes a long hard look at the body's system for getting out of trouble. And how in our modern, hyper-connected world, that system misfires and takes us from the frying pan, right into another, albeit entirely different, frying pan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Stanford University neurologist (and part-time \"baboonologist\") Dr. Robert Sapolsky takes us through what happens on our insides when we stand in the wrong line at the supermarket, and offers a few coping strategies: gnawing on wood, beating the crap out of somebody, and having friends. Plus: the story of a singer who lost her voice, and an author stuck in a body that never grew up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Support Radiolab by becoming a member of \u003ca href=\"https://www.wnycstudios.org/podcasts/radiolab/membership\">The Lab\u003c/a> today. \u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCaum_fMDGgFQCmKHUBPq_xg\">Radiolab is on YouTube!\u003c/a> Catch up with new episodes and hear classics from our archive.

Most autoimmune disorders do. And not just by a little bit, often by a lot; in some cases, as much as sixteen times more. But why? On today’s episode, we talk to scientists trying to answer that question. We go back 100 million years, to when our placenta first evolved and consider how it might have shaped our immune system. We dive deep into the genome, to stare at one of the most famous chromosomes: the X. And we also try to unravel a mystery — why is it that for some females, autoimmune disorders seemingly disappear during pregnancy?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This episode was reported by Molly Webster, and produced by Sindhu \u003c/em>\u003cem>Gnanasambandan and Molly Webster\u003c/em>\u003cem>.\u003c/em> \u003cem>The Gonads theme song was written, performed, and produced by Majel Connery and Alex Overington. \u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Looking for something else to listen to?
