GIVE ME YOUR BLOOD: Henrietta Lacks to Samuel "The Traitor" Slater


Listen Later

Are doctors stealing your cells for medical research and profit? How much would you sell your blood for? Who was the power couple of the American Industrial Revolution? Kyle and Jheisson answer these questions and more as they spin their way across Wikipedia going from Henrietta Lacks whose cancer cells changed the trajectory of medical science, all the way to Samuel "The Traitor" Slater whose (stolen) knowledge of textile manufacturing changed the trajectory of the United States.
