From Cells to Us…How!? | The Story of Life and Biology is a storytelling biology podcast for people who are curious about science—even if they never thought of themselves as “science people.”

We start at the origin of life and move forward through evolution and the history of biology, unpacking how single cells became everything from bacteria to humans. Along the way, we explore the big questions: How did life begin? How did it change? And how did we figure it out?

Expect 90s references, pop culture callbacks, and memorable analogies that make complex biology click.

No textbooks. No prerequisites. Just curiosity, storytelling, and a sense of humor.

Hosted by Jackie Mullins—genetics researcher, phlebotomist, biomedical engineer, and lifelong biology enthusiast who believes science deserves better storytelling.

  • EP 12 - From one to many (multicellularity)
    2026/05/22

    Any thoughts? Text me!

    For three billion years, life went solo.

    Then one day, some cells forgot to separate after dividing — and that tiny accident changed the history of Earth.

    In Episode 12 of From Cells to Us… How?!, we explore the rise of multicellular life: the first cells that learned to cooperate, the evolutionary battle against cheating cells (aka cancer), and how trillions of individual cells eventually became… you.

    Because multicellularity didn’t just make life bigger.

    It made complexity possible.

  • Ep 11 - Sexual Reproduction

    Sex Didn’t Evolve to Make Babies

    What if I told you sex didn’t evolve to reproduce?

    A billion years ago, single-celled organisms were already doing something that looks a lot like sex — and it had nothing to do with babies.

    No embryos. No development. No families.

    Just two cells, briefly merging… shuffling their DNA… and separating again.

    So why would evolution invent something so inefficient?

    Why give up cloning — the fastest, simplest way to survive — for something slower, riskier, and more complicated?

    The answer involves parasites, broken DNA, and a billion-year-old survival strategy that’s still running inside your body right now.

    Episode 10: Inside the Cell City 🧬

    What if your cells weren’t just blobs… but fully functioning cities?

    In this episode, we take a tour inside the eukaryotic cell — where proteins are built, packaged, shipped, and even recycled. From the rough ER and Golgi apparatus to lysosomes and motor proteins, every part of the cell has a job.

    And none of it was planned.

    Every organelle exists because it solved a problem — one solution leading to the next, turning simple cells into something incredibly complex.

    🎧 Next: Sexual reproduction — one of the strangest innovations in the history of life.
