This week on Eavesdroppin', Geordie and Michelle dive into the weird and wonderful world of epigenetics, inherited trauma, reincarnation and the possibility that your DNA might be carrying more than just your eye colour...

Can fear really be passed down through generations? Why did a group of mice develop a terror of cherries after their parents were traumatised in a lab experiment? And could the experiences of Holocaust survivors leave biological marks on their descendants? Recent scientific studies suggest that trauma can literally rewire DNA alongside the hopeful idea that healing might be inherited, too.

Michelle then digs into the stories of two children who claim to remember past lives. Did blond-haired toddler Luke from Ohio really used to be a Black woman named Pam who died in a fire? Was Scottish child, Cameron Macaulay, really the reincarnation of a man called Shane Robertson who once lived in a white bungalow on the Isle of Barra? Is this reincarnation, genetic memory, imagination… or something else entirely? You decide! So grab a brown lemonade and settle in as the duo chat scat talk, flags, ghostly children, family trauma, field mice and why your ancestors might still be living rent-free in your nervous system — only on Eavesdroppin’. And remember, wherever you are, whatever you do, just keep Eavesdroppin’!
