Colbert Tackles DNA:
Here, Stephen Colbert takes an in-depth look into the questions that drive real genetic research, like:
“Why am I ugly?”,
“Who’s my baby-daddy?”,
“Can DNA help me have a successful long-term career as an alcoholic using stem-cell-generated liver-transplants every few years?”,
And terrible tractor-trailer jackknifing accidents in the quad-cities area of Iowa.
Stephen also brings his genetic misunderstaning to the experts, too.
Actual Doctors like Spencer Wells and Gene-Sequencing-Badass Craig Venter try to help clear up Stephen’s confusion later down.
JUMP BONUS!: Dr. Spencer Wells of The National Genographic Project,
