Standup Riley Silverman (@ryesilverman) returns to help us figure out if your gut bacteria can make you a good person, if your health choices can affect your offspring and why poor people look like poor, plus we get deep into genetic engineering, CRISPR, the transporter dilemma and debate the existence of a soul!
