#43. Paul Kammerer e02: "Solving a hundred years old mystery"
Description
As the answer to a century old mystery is proposed, the gates of a hundred new questions are revealed. Follow me on one of the craziest rides through the history of science that I ever recorded. It is a star studded and celebrity packed episode with all your old favourites, J.P Morgan and Rockefeller and their ario-heroic archaeological expeditions to Central Asia. Bone War contestants like American Museum of Natural History president Henry Fairfield Osborn and his pet snake G.K Noble. Nazi-Purges at German speaking universities of basically the entire subsequent Manhattan Project, compensated with honorary doctorates handed out by Hitler to the namesake behind the T-Rex and the Velociraptor. Old discovered letters filled with secrets and David Attenborough narrated assumptions about evolution that have a dark past. 1930s Julian Huxley propaganda films describing shit even the Swastikalers had to initially hush up.
Tying it all together is the adventurous life of Paul Kammerer, a biological rock-star so popular that he could even convince bible belt American workers of his socialist theory of evolution. His days in Moscow and the reasons why some people wanted him gone will with the help of Austrian Investigator Klaus Taschwer finally be revealed for the first time in podcast format and hopefully bring Kammerer's ghost to rest in peace, I know that he would have wanted for you to hear his story.
In this public season finale we bring you a summary, a conclusion and most importantly we will build for you Bifröst, the bridge from the pseudo legendary rune-phantasmagoria which we have all learned to fear to the post modern respectability which we have all learned to admire.
