Show Notes

Why are there so many celebrity clone conspiracy theories? Is there really a Melania Trump body double? Have scientists actually tried to clone humans? And, how does cloning actually work? We hear from an alleged clone himself, and talk to a biosciences expert to find out how feasible these theories actually are.

This week features Chelsey Weber-Smith, whose show AmericanHysteria covers all sorts of strange hoaxes, moral panics, and odd misunderstandings.

Also featuring Hank T. Greely, director of Stanford University’s Center for Law and the Biosciences.
