Description

In this week's episode, Sean and Nathan are joined by guest Liliana Escobedo to discuss epigenetics, which is either all of the stuff besides your genes that affects the functions of your cells OR non-genetic stuff that happens in your life that can affect your kids and grandkids, depending on what scientists you ask for a definition! Can eating too much food during your lifetime affect your grandkids through your sperm or eggs getting tweaked? Find out this week on Petri Dish!Featuring a promo for the very fun podcast "The Ladies of Strange":"The Ladies of Strange is a comedy podcast where we talk about everything from true crime, paranormal, conspiracy, and anything else we find questionable, odd, or eerie.
