In the early 20th century, prominent figures in psychology, psychiatry and pediatrics in the U.S. began to promote a new standard for mothers: that they should serve as a constant, unchanging and wholly nurturing presence in their children's lives. It was the best way, they claimed, to raise healthy and successful children. This ideal marked a shift away from earlier traditions where caregiving was often distributed among extended family members, hired help and community. In her new book, Mother Media: Hot and Cool Parenting in the Twentieth Century, UC Berkeley associate professor Hannah Zeavin explores how the new ideal of constant mothering was advanced by the mind sciences during the rise of the nuclear family and became especially powerful for white, middle-class mothers.Yet this expectation was both unrealistic and deeply shaped by issues of race and class, says Zeavin, who spoke last month at a Berkeley Book Chats event hosted by the Townsend Center for the Humanities.As more mothers entered the workforce and social changes disrupted older forms of caregiving, media researchers began to explore whether technology could step in, imagining devices — first, baby monitors and later, TVs and tablets — as substitutes for, or supplements to, maternal care. In this Berkeley Talks episode, Zeavin discusses how these ideals and interventions — defining the “perfect mother,” substituting media for maternal presence and punishing deviations from the norm — continue to influence American family life today.Watch a video of the conversation, which was moderated by Ramsey McGlazer, associate professor in the Department of Comparative Literature.Listen to the episode and read the transcript on UC Berkeley News (news.berkeley.edu/podcasts/berkeley-talks).Music by HoliznaCC0.Screenshot of the Mother Media book cover.

Mød litteraturhistoriker og journalist Sara Alfort, der elsker de divaer og damer, der var for meget. Hun har netop udgivet sin tredje bog om kvinder, der nok selv skulle bestemme, hvordan deres liv skulle leves. Hendes seneste bog hedder 'Da træerne voksede ind i himlen' og hun deler bl.a. en godbid fra den og beretter, hvordan hun i sin research afdækkede, hvordan den forestilling om kvindelige kunstnere som nogen, der malede blomster og ikke kunne få en kunstnerisk uddannelse, ikke holder vand. For de rejste; til Paris, til Rom, til Athen. De malede, udstillede, debatterede og valgte et liv med kunsten. Bag om Københavnerhistorikerne er et møde med de mennesker, der skriver om eller i København. Fælles for dem er, at de er historiefortællere: Det er dem, der undersøger og skaber de fortællinger om København, som vi bruger til at blive klogere på byen og dens lange og mangesidede historie.

The United States is in a moment like no other in recent history, says Deb Haaland, former President Joe Biden's secretary of the Interior Department from 2021 to 2025. Every day, she says, it seems a new pillar of the American government is under attack. But what makes this moment unique aren't these crises themselves, but the attack on the idea that problems can be solved at all. “We face a creeping cynicism that suggests that our real enemy is our desire to make a difference,” she said during the keynote address at the Goldman School of Public Policy's Annual Conference and Alumni Gathering in September. “We face attacks on the very idea of wanting to make things better. That's why the Goldman School of Public Policy is so vital. Without places like this, without people like those in this room today, America wouldn't have a prayer of meeting this moment.”In this Berkeley Talks episode, Haaland discusses how policy — not politics — is the only path to real change, and why we need a unified effort grounded in moral courage and diverse perspectives to meet the challenges facing the country. “Part of the reason I wanted to join you today is to speak to the importance of faith in the possibility of what we can do together,” she says. “And I use the word ‘faith' deliberately. Especially in times like these, it takes belief, moral courage and determination in the face of despair to keep going. We have to find it inside ourselves, nurture that flame and keep it lit.”More about the speaker: Haaland is a member of the Laguna Pueblo tribe in New Mexico and the first Native American to serve as a U.S. Cabinet secretary. Before that, she was the U.S. representative for New Mexico's 1st Congressional District from 2019 to 2021, one of the first two Native American women elected to Congress. She is running for governor of New Mexico in the 2026 election.

En isnende november-nat i 1951 bliver København ramt af en af sine største katastrofer. Hvad der begynder som en tilsyneladende almindelig brand på Holmen, udvikler sig på få minutter til et altødelæggende inferno, da et armeringsværksted fyldt med miner springer i luften. Eksplosionen flænser natten, slynger murbrokker ud over byen, dræber brandfolk og soldater på stedet – og efterlader København i chok. Dette er historien om Holmen-katastrofen: en blanding af uheld, mangelfuld information og dødelig rutine, der kostede 16 mennesker livet og satte et uudsletteligt spor i byens historie. En embedsmand på vej mod toppen ender som livstidsfange. Christian Birch er på nippet til at blive finansminister, men hans liv vælter, da spillegæld, forfalskede obligationer og misbrug af statskassen indhenter ham. Det hele starter med en bryllupsgæld, et lotteri – og en brand, der opsluger alt, hvad han ejer. Snart står han i centrum for en af Danmarks største korruptionsskandaler, dømt til vanære og fængsel på livstid. Christian Birchs sag bliver et vendepunkt. Den lægger grundstenen til en ny embedskultur, hvor tillid og ansvarlighed er kerneværdier. Derfor fremhæves Danmark i dag som et af de mindst korrupte lande i verden – netop fordi erfaringerne fra 1800-tallet viser, hvor ødelæggende korruption er for både statens magt og borgernes tillid. Birchs fald bliver dermed ikke kun en personlig tragedie, men en milepæl i opbygningen af det embedsmandsideal, vi stadig lever med i dag.

UC Berkeley is widely considered a leader in innovation and startups. Pitchbook university rankings from 2025 announced, for the third year in a row, that Berkeley graduates have founded more venture-backed companies than undergraduate alumni from any other university in the world. Some might wonder, says Chancellor Rich Lyons, if this entrepreneurial energy clashes with Berkeley's tradition of top-tier research and teaching. But Lyons sees it differently: These forces fuel each other, combining to drive the campus's ultimate goal of making a lasting difference in the world. It's a dynamic duo, he says, that keeps the campus pushing boundaries and shaping the future. In this Berkeley Talks episode, a panel of prominent Berkeley faculty and an alum join Lyons to discuss how the campus's startup culture has powered their work and encourages the next generation of scholars to grow their ideas. The panel, which took place on Oct. 6 during Homecoming weekend, includes: Ana Claudia Arias, professor of electrical engineering and computer sciencesKen Goldberg, professor of engineeringMarco Lobba, alum and co-founder and CEO of CatenaBio Chancellor Rich Lyons (moderator)Watch a video of the conversation.

In this Berkeley Talks episode, renowned marine ecologist Jane Lubchenco discusses how a persistent narrative that the ocean is “too big to fail” has led to its degradation. While many now believe its problems are “too big to fix,” Lubchenco explains why we need to embrace a new narrative: That it's too central to our future to ignore.“There is a historic narrative about the ocean, one that has framed the way people have talked about the ocean and have treated the ocean for almost all of human history,” Lubchenko told the audience at a UC Berkeley event in March. “The ocean, for thousands and thousands of years, was seen as so immense, so endlessly bountiful that people thought it must be infinitely resilient and impossible to deplete or disrupt.”But now, she said, the impossible has happened — “it's depleted, it's disrupted, it's polluted, it's warmer, it's more acidic, it's deoxygenated" — and we need to create a new narrative, one that acknowledges that a healthy ocean is central to a just and prosperous future on Earth. While she admits there are “huge challenges,” Lubchenco stresses that there are solutions that already exist that can be scaled up, like enabling sustainable aquaculture, reforming fisheries management, employing nature-based blue carbon ecosystems and creating and strengthening marine protected areas.“This ocean that we have, that connects us all, that feeds us all, is at the center of climate change solutions, health solutions, food security, recreational opportunities,” she said. “This is really all one ocean. It is possible to use it without using it up. We're not there yet. But given what I've said, it's not impossible. And I think that these findings and these actions and these results are leading to the emergence of a new narrative for the ocean.”Lubchenco spoke at Berkeley on March 13, 2025, as part of the Martha Charles M. and Martha Hitchcock Lectures series. This lecture was one of two given by Lubchenco for the series, together titled “Agency, Urgency, and Hope: Science and Scientists Serving Society.” Watch the event on the UC Berkeley Graduate Lectures YouTube page. Lubchenco is former deputy director for climate and environment in the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, and Wayne and Gladys Valley Professor of Marine Biology and University Distinguished Professor at Oregon State University.Listen to the episode and read the transcript on UC Berkeley News (news.berkeley.edu/podcasts/berkeley-talks).Photo by Daniel J.

This episode features a clip of the song "Down in the Basement" by HoliznaCC0. Episode Transcript
In his 2023 book The Entanglement, UC Berkeley philosopher Alva Noë argues that human nature is not a fixed phenomenon, and that art acts as a kind of “strange tool” that actively changes us. “Life and art are entangled,” says Noë, who spoke about his research at a Berkeley event in June 2023. “To say that life and art are entangled is to say not only that we make art out of life, all the habits and systems and meanings and certainties, but that art then works these raw materials over — art works us over, art makes us new. Art makes us.”In this Berkeley Talks episode, Noë discusses how humans are in a constant state of becoming, and that art works to unveil us to ourselves in ways that empirical inquiry common in scientific fields cannot. By removing an object, like a photo, from its normal setting, he says, it allows us to reflect on what we normally take for granted about the object and presents an opportunity to make new meaning from it. “We are makers,” he continues. “We are put together, literally made up, by the habits and skills of making that constitute us. So by making, and thus exposing what our lives as makers take for granted, art puts us on display … in ways that hold out the opportunity of changing us, of liberating us. Liberating us precisely from the bonds of habit which our activities consist in.”Noë's lecture was part of the 2023 Berkeley Art, Law and Finance Symposium, presented by the Berkeley Center for Law and Business.

I denne første podcast-udgave af serien Bag om Københavnerhistorikerne kan du møde historiker og professor Ulrik Langen, der finder 1700-tallet både fremmedartet og genkendeligt. Det fascinerer ham, og han fortæller bl.a. i podcasten om, hvordan det er en tid med store følelser, store kjoler og en gryende forestilling om, at mennesker har rettigheder, blot fordi de er mennesker. Han deler desuden en godbid fra en af sine egne bøger og beskriver, hvordan fortidens kildemateriale ofte giver særdeles brugbare oplysninger om hverdagslivet, selvom det er noget andet, de egentlig behandler i fx vidneudsagn. Bag om Københavnerhistorikerne er et møde med de mennesker, der skriver om eller i København. Fælles for dem er, at de er historiefortællere: Det er dem, der undersøger og skaber de fortællinger om København, som vi bruger til at blive klogere på byen og dens lange og mangesidede historie.

As the science director at UC Berkeley's Greater Good Science Center, Emiliana Simon-Thomas thinks a lot about how prosocial emotions and behaviors — like compassion and gratitude — influence our well-being and society as a whole. And recently, she's been more deeply exploring the effects of forgiveness. “Forgiveness is an idea that most people endorse, that most people feel is a virtue or the right thing to do, but can often be more challenging than we expect in actual day-to-day life,” Simon-Thomas said during a Berkeley event in July. Not only is it difficult to put into practice, she says, but it's also hard to define — it's often understood differently from person to person and culture to culture. In this Berkeley Talks episode, Simon-Thomas is joined in a conversation by child clinical psychologist Allison Briscoe-Smith, a senior fellow at the center, and clinical neuropsychologist Melike Fourie of the Neuroscience Institute at the University of Cape Town in South Africa. Together, they explore what forgiveness is, how it works in the body and brain and the ways people can practice forgiveness that feel safe and empowering. This event took place on July 30, 2025, and was part of a Greater Good Science Center project on forgiveness supported by the Templeton World Charity Foundation.

Københavnerne får sig virkelig én på opleveren – og de elsker det! Måske lige med undtagelse af de mere konservative af slagsen – det dér italienske døgnflue-hysteri – det er altså langt ude – byens damer samler endda på lokker af tenorernes hår! Hvad er nu DET for noget! Kontrasten til de danske sangere er også enorm – som én af gadens, ganske vidst velsyngende, visekællinger – mod en konservatorieuddannet sopran. Sangerne synger måske ikke altid lige rent – det forstår man nu godt, der er jo ikke ligefrem vant til at synge i temperaturer nær frysepunktet – alligevel er flere anmeldere begejstrede for sangernes: "... helt utrolige dramatiske optræden og fremhæver en energi og mimik og troværdighed i rollerne, som gør det nemt at følge handlingen, selv om kun få forstår et ord." --- "De frysende tilskuere kan gå hjem i en rus af ny, spændende musik og frem for alt af en helt ny form for musikteater, som de aldrig har set og hørt magen til. Det Kgl. Teaters sangere har fået en alvorlig konkurrent." (Ramaskrig!

For UC Berkeley's Jennifer Doudna, the revolutionary discovery of CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing began 15 years ago with a meeting at the campus's Free Speech Movement Cafe. “This is a quintessential story about Berkeley,” begins Doudna, a professor of molecular and cell biology and of chemistry, in a lecture she gave on campus in April. “The research that I'll talk about today wouldn't have happened … if I had been working anywhere else. And that's because we have a really collaborative environment on our campus.”At the cafe, Doudna listened while a Berkeley colleague described a possible adaptive immune system in bacteria that helps them fight off viral infection. Doudna's lab went on to research the molecules involved, discovering a pathway that allows bacteria to "learn" about viruses, store the information and use it for protection.The scientists realized this same system could be used to trigger DNA repair in plant, animal and human cells, effectively allowing them to "rewrite the code of life." The seminal paper on CRISPR was published in 2012 by Doudna and her key collaborator, French microbiologist Emmanuelle Charpentier. The pair went on to win the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 2020.In this Berkeley Talks episode, Doudna discusses how CRISPR can be used to correct disease-causing genetic mutations, the impact that it's already having on people's lives and where she sees the technology going in the future. “We're in an era of programmable genome editing,” she says. “It's really exciting to see all the possible applications of this. We know that it can be safe and effective to treat and even to potentially cure human disease, and we need to continue to advance the technology so that it can be deployed more widely.”Not only will that require continual activity on the science and technology front, she adds, but also in developing appropriate guidelines and regulations to ensure that CRISPR's applications move forward responsibly. Doudna's talk took place on April 4 as part of Brilliance of Berkeley, a course offered every spring by the College of Letters and Science that celebrates the campus's exceptional faculty and their accomplishments. Each week, students listen to two guest lectures by top Berkeley scholars from an array of fields, followed by a Q&A. Watch the video on the Brilliance of Berkeley YouTube page.

Every spring semester, UC Berkeley Assistant Professor Shereen Marisol Meraji teaches a class on race and journalism. In the course, she and her students explore how colonialism and the legacy of its systems — including forced displacement of Native tribes, slavery and Jim Crow — continue to affect us as a society, and how journalists can meaningfully report on race in America today.“It has led to persistent racial disparities in wealth, in education, housing, healthcare, in policing and incarceration,” said Meraji, who leads the audio program at Berkeley's Graduate School of Journalism. “I firmly believe that you can't meaningfully report on any of those issues, here in the United States, without an understanding of how race operates.”When President Trump signed a surge of executive orders in January 2025, many that directly intersect with race, Meraji suggested that her students interview experts at Berkeley to help make sense of these new anti-DEI policies, immigration enforcement changes and regulatory rollbacks. Those interviews, which aired on KALW, became The Stakes Explained, a multimedia series where Berkeley professors, frontline journalists and community members unpack President Trump's executive orders and actions to see what's at stake for U.S. democracy.In this Berkeley Talks episode, we're sharing an hourlong special about The Stakes Explained that aired on KALX in July. In it, we hear several interviews with Berkeley scholars featured in the series, including law professor Sarah Song and Travis Bristol, an associate professor in the School of Education. They and other experts break down some of Trump's executive orders, from those targeting diversity, equity and inclusion in education to others that are reshaping the immigration system and immigration enforcement.

In this Berkeley Talks episode, economist Gabriel Zucman discusses how wealth inequality and billionaire wealth has soared in recent decades, prompting the need for a global minimum tax of 2% on billionaires. “The key benefit of a global minimum tax on billionaires is not only that it would generate substantial revenue for governments worldwide — about $250 billion a year — but also, and maybe most importantly, that it would restore a sense of fairness,” says Zucman, a UC Berkeley summer research professor and director of the Stone Center on Wealth and Income Inequality's Summer Institute. Today, billionaires pay only about 0.2% of their wealth in taxes, says Zucman, because they often structure their wealth to minimize taxable income through control over corporate dividends, delaying capital gains and using holding company structures, among other methods. The 2% tax rate proposal is a modest one, he argues, and would merely ensure that billionaires, comprising about 3,000 families around the world, pay at least as high an effective tax rate as those in the middle class.“For the first time in decades,” he continues, “billionaires would pay at least the same effective tax rate as nurses, teachers or secretaries, ending a situation where, in many countries, the very richest pay less than the middle class. It's a modest, pragmatic reform, but it would make a big difference for our democracies and social cohesion.”Zucman spoke at Berkeley on June 23 as part of the campus's annual Stone Lecture series. Now a professor of economics at the Paris School of Economics, Zucman previously served on the Berkeley faculty for a decade, first as an assistant professor of economics and then as founding director of the Stone Center on Wealth and Income Inequality. He co-authored the 2019 book The Triumph of Injustice: How the Rich Dodge Taxes and How to Make Them Pay with Berkeley economics professor Emmanuel Saez.

Today we are revisiting an October 2023 Berkeley Talks episode in which Ezra Klein, a New York Times columnist and host of the podcast The Ezra Klein Show, discusses the difficulties liberal governments encounter when working to build real things in the real world. He joins in a conversation with Amy Lerman, a UC Berkeley political scientist and director of the Possibility Lab.“To have the future we want, we need to build and invent more of the things that we need,” begins Klein, who has since published the 2025 book Abundance with co-author Derek Thompson. “It's so stupidly simple, so obvious, that it seems weird there could be any need to write articles or podcasts or truly, God forbid, a book about it.” “And yet,” he continues, “the story of America in the 21st century — more than that, the story of liberalism, and particularly California liberalism — is a story of chosen scarcity.” Klein argues that while liberal governments are ambitious in their aims, like addressing climate change, building affordable housing or expanding infrastructure, they are often hampered by the very procedural safeguards and checks designed to protect rights and ensure public input.There are things, he says, that we have an abundance of now — flat screen TVs, iPhones — but we need more of the things that will make real the world in which many of us want to live: “A world where we're not cooking the planet, a world where a firefighter who works to keep San Francisco from burning down can live in the city he works on the daily to save, a world where there is access to the medical care and medications that people need. I care about working backwards from the world I want to the things we need to get there.”This event took place on Oct. 5, 2023, in UC Berkeley's Zellerbach Hall. It was co-presented by Cal Performances and UC Berkeley Graduate Lectures as part of the Jefferson Memorial Lecture Series.Watch a video of the event on the Graduate Lectures website.Listen to the episode and read the transcript on UC Berkeley News (news.berkeley.edu/podcasts).Music by HoliznaCC0.Photo by Lucas Foglia.

In the early 1960s, R.J. Reynolds, one of the largest and most profitable tobacco companies in the U.S. at the time, wanted to diversify its business. Its marketing strategies had been highly successful in selling its top brands, like Camel, Winston and Salem cigarettes, and executives thought, Why not apply the same strategies to, say, the food industry?So in 1963, R.J. Reynolds acquired Hawaiian Punch. It marked the beginning of the tobacco industry's entry into the food sector. In the following decades, R.J. Reynolds and Philip Morris expanded aggressively into the food industry, acquiring major brands, like Del Monte, Nabisco, General Foods, Kraft and 7UP, where they produced hyperpalatable, chemically-engineered foods now known as ultra-processed foods, or UPFs. These products were marketed especially to children and other vulnerable groups. In Berkeley Talks episode 229, Laura Schmidt, a professor of health policy in the School of Medicine at UC San Francisco, discusses how ultra-processed foods — like cookies, sodas, instant noodles, fish sticks and cereals — are a direct legacy of the tobacco industry, and are responsible for a dramatic rise in obesity, diabetes and other chronic diseases across the country. “About 60% of the calories in Americans' diets are from ultra-processed foods,” says Schmidt, who spoke at a UC Berkeley event in May. “In the mid-'80s, when we see ultra-processed foods starting to scale up in the American food supply, we also see obesity starting to really rise. That is the moment when some of the largest food companies are owned by tobacco companies.”This talk took place on May 5, 2025, and was co-sponsored by the Berkeley Food Institute (BFI) and Berkeley Public Health. It was moderated by Isabel Madzorera, an assistant professor in food, nutrition and population health at Berkeley Public Health and co-faculty director at the Berkeley Food Institute.Watch a video of the event on the Berkeley Food Institute's YouTube page.Listen to the episode and read the transcript on UC Berkeley News (news.berkeley.edu/podcasts).Music by HoliznaCC0.Photo by Cory Doctorow via Wikimedia Commons.

In this episode, we talk about the Beale Cipher Mystery with Dan. The Beale Papers was a pamphlet published in 1885, detailing a story that took place in the 1820s and 1840s about a man named Thomas J. Beale. After disappearing, the contents of a strongbox he left at a hotel were opened in 1845, revealing three pages of ciphertext and a letter explaining the ciphertext pages. It sparked a 175+ year long treasure hunt. This is one of Barnabas' favorite mysteries in Cryptography, and we already discussed some about it in episodes 5 and 11. In the special story, Steve and Bob bot go trick-or-treating... only to discover that they get something other than what they asked for. This episode is a part of the Kids' Listen Halloween Sweeps.
