Dr. Kary Banks Mullis was a fascinating and complicated man. After winning a Nobel Prize in 1993 the first thing he did was go surfing. His discovery has been called the most important in the last century and it has been used to exonerate falsely accused men on death row; and most recently we have all been faced with being tested by a product of his method. His mysterious death in 2019 has led some people to believe that there is more to the story. In this episode I'll tell you the story of an extraordinary maverick that's been called among other things, a Hunter S. Thomson in a lab coat.
