Pigs with human kidneys. Iron lungs. Bionic prostheses. And bendable genitals. Mary Roach is here, and Alie is freaking out. Over the last two decades, this science icon has written seven New York Times bestsellers, including Stiff, Bonk, Gulp, and Packing for Mars. Her latest release, Replaceable You: Adventures in Human Anatomy is all about Human Technomorphology. Prep your flesh for getting to 4th base in a lab, bugs on drugs, elective amputation, gene-tweaked farm animals, vacuum chambers, beating hearts, leftover tendons and much more with a scicomm legend who’s Alie’s personal career hero. Visit Mary Roach’s <a href="https://maryroach.net/" target="_blank">website</a> and follow her on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/authormaryroach/?hl=en" target="_blank">Instagram</a>Check out Mary’s <a href="https://maryroach.net/index.html" target="_blank">books</a> including her latest, Replaceable You, available on <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/1324050624/ref=cm_sw_su_dp" target="_blank">Amazon</a> and <a href="https://bookshop.org/p/books/replaceable-you-17-glimpses-of-the-fabricated-human-mary-roach/22245131?ean=9781324050629&next=t&next=t" target="_blank">Bookshop.org</a>Donations went to <a href="https://amputee-coalition.org/" target="_blank">The Amputee Coalition</a> and <a href="https://www.ostomy.org/" target="_blank">United Ostomy Associations of America</a><a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/humantechnomorphology">More episode sources and links</a>Other episodes you may enjoy: <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/disabilitysociology">Disability Sociology (DISABILITY PRIDE)</a>, <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/knees">Genicular Traumatology (BAD KNEES)</a>, <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/stemcellbiology">Stem Cell Biology (CELLS MAKING CELLS)</a>, <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/systemsbiology">Systems Biology (MEDICAL MATHEMATICS)</a>, <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/neurotechnology">Neurotechnology (AI + BRAIN TECH)</a>, <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/osteology">Osteology (SKELETONS/BODY FARMS)</a>, <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/surgical-oncology">Surgical Oncology (BREAST CANCER)</a>, <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/dipterology">Dipterology (FLIES)</a><a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies-by-topic">400+ Ologies episodes sorted by topic</a><a href="https://pod.link/1746567248">Smologies (short, classroom-safe) episodes</a><a href="https://alieward.com/ologies-sponsors">Sponsors of Ologies</a><a href="https://alieward.com/ologies-extras">Transcripts and bleeped episodes</a><a href="https://www.patreon.com/ologies" target="_blank">Become a patron of Ologies</a> for as little as a buck a month<a href="https://www.ologiesmerch.com/" target="_blank">OlogiesMerch.com</a> has hats, shirts, hoodies, totes!Follow Ologies on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ologies" target="_blank">Instagram</a> and <a href="https://bsky.app/profile/ologies.bsky.social" target="_blank">Bluesky</a>Follow Alie Ward on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/alieward" target="_blank">Instagram</a> and <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@alie_ologies" target="_blank">TikTok</a>Editing by Mercedes Maitland of <a href="http://maitlandaudio.com/" target="_blank">Maitland Audio Productions</a> and <a href="https://www.jecmusic.com/" target="_blank">Jake Chaffee</a>Managing Director: Susan HaleScheduling Producer: Noel DilworthTranscripts by Aveline Malek Website by <a href="https://www.kellyrdwyer.com/photo" target="_blank">Kelly R.
