World’s Last Chance (E367)

The long history of humans bending biology for civilization eventually raised an important question: if animals can be domesticated, then couldn’t they also be de-domesticated? Further: could selective breeding allow scientists to reverse-engineer a species back from extinction and contain identical DNA to its ancestors? The first people to attempt “de-extinction” were, naturally, mad zoologists supported by Nazis. Modern attempts to leverage molecular biology to revive long-lost species provide a classic example of history rhyming. In part one of this two-part episode, Jack explores the disturbing ideology behind the de-extinction efforts of the Heck brothers in 1930s Germany, as well as their attempts to create so-called “genetically pure” species. Next week, we’ll unpack the floundering species revival program from genetic engineering startup Colossal Biosciences and why billionaires and the Trump administration are so invested in gaining the ability to make extinction less permanent than commonly believed.

“THE BIBLE SAYS…JESUS IS NOT GOD - GOD’S SON DID NOT PRE-EXIST IN HEAVEN”. This billboard is what Julian was taking a photo of while attempting to not rear-end the driver in front of him. It was paid for by World’s Last Chance - an organization founded by Galal Philip Habib Doss. Established in 2004, the group claims its central office is the “World Wide Web,” asserts that the Earth is flat, and argues that Christians are wrong in nearly every aspect of their interpretation of life. Knowing a QAA episode when he sees one, Julian got to work. Subscribe for $5 a month to get all the premium episodes: www.patreon.com/qaa Check out our new podcast series network Cursed Media!

The UK’s National Baby is back alongside Julian and Travis with more British right-wing adjacent content. In the first part of a two-part episode, Annie Kelly examines the rise in popularity of “home education centers” that first began appearing during COVID. At first marketed towards the anti-lockdown minded, these centers slowly evolved to address other areas of discontent with the British education system and gained traction among parents who felt abandoned by the conventional school system.
