The Gene Genie | Jonah Goldberg & Razib Khan

[Posted by Chuck Almdale]

A recent update on genes and genealogical discoveries, with special emphasis on Jews, both Sephardim and Ashkenazim, including the so-called Khazar origins of the Ashkenazim. Plus the inheritability of intelligence, biological limits, autism and a plethora of other topics. Jonah Goldberg is the chief editor of The Dispatch, and Razib Khan is a geneticist.

From the podcast blurb:

The last time Razib Khan—a geneticist and author of the Unsupervised Learning Substack—appeared on The Remnant to discuss genes and behavior, Jonah couldn’t resist focusing their conversation exclusively on canines. Today, Razib is finally back to explore the genetic makeup of the world’s second most important animal, human beings. He and Jonah try to keep the science simple and the nudity tasteful as they explore some highfalutin topics: How has our knowledge of genetics evolved over time? What can our genes tell us about our ancestors? And are genes the ultimate predictor of intelligence and disease?
