From Cells to Us…How!? | The Biology of Life Explained episodes
- Ep 1 - The First Cell
Any thoughts? Text me!
How did life begin from non-life?
In this episode of From Cells to Us… How!?, we go all the way back—before biology had a name—to explore how chemistry on early Earth may have produced the first living systems.
We talk lightning, oceans, RNA, and the messy, improbable process that eventually led to life. No textbooks. No prerequisites. Just curiosity.

35 min - Ep 2 - The Workers Arrive
Any thoughts? Text me!
RNA can store information—but it can’t do everything alone.
In this episode, we explore how amino acids entered the picture and why life needed molecular “workers” to survive and evolve.
46 min - Ep 3 - DNA
Any thoughts? Text me!
RNA was first—but DNA changed everything.
This episode explores why life switched to DNA for long-term storage and how that shift made complexity possible.

About From Cells to Us…How!? | The Biology of Life Explained
From the publisher's feed
From Cells to Us…How!? | The Story of Life and Biology is a storytelling biology podcast for people who are curious about science—even if they never thought of themselves as “science…
people.”
We start at the origin of life and move forward through evolution and the history of biology, unpacking how single cells became everything from bacteria to humans. Along the way, we explore the big questions: How did life begin? How did it change? And how did we figure it out?
Expect 90s references, pop culture callbacks, and memorable analogies that make complex biology click.
No textbooks. No prerequisites. Just curiosity, storytelling, and a sense of humor.
Hosted by Jackie Mullins—genetics researcher, phlebotomist, biomedical engineer, and lifelong biology enthusiast who believes science deserves better storytelling.
