b'Carl Zimmer, a columnist for the New York Times and a national correspondent at STAT, writes about science.\\n\\n \\u201c[Criticism] doesn\\u2019t change the truth. You know? Global warming is still happening. Vaccines still work. Evolution is still true. No matter what someone on Twitter or someone in an administration is going to say, it\\u2019s still true. So, we science writers have to still be letting people know about what science has discovered, what we with our minds have discovered about the world\\u2014to the best of our abilities. That\\u2019s our duty as science writers, and we can\\u2019t let these things scare us off.\\u201d\\n\\nThanks to MailChimp, Audible, and Squarespace for sponsoring this week\'s episode.\\n@carlzimmer\\ncarlzimmer.com\\nZimmer on Longform\\n[01:00] Ross Andersen on the Longform Podcast\\n[02:45] Zimmer\\u2019s column at the New York Times\\n[02:45] Zimmer\\u2019s books\\n[04:00] "The Rise of the Tick" (Outside \\u2022 Apr 2013)\\n[6:40] "Sleepless in South Sudan" (Radiolab \\u2022 Oct 2011)\\n\\n\\xa0\\n[08:15] Parasite Rex: Inside the Bizarre World of Nature\\u2019s Most Dangerous Creatures (Simon & Schuster \\u2022 2000)\\n[08:30] "A Sleeping Storm" (Discover \\u2022 Aug 1998)\\n[25:00] "How Scientists Stalked a Lethal Superbug\\u2014With the Killer\\u2019s Own DNA" (Wired \\u2022 Jan 2013)\\n[25:30] "Game of Genomes Episode 1: Man Inside the Hard Drive" (STAT \\u2022 Jul 2016)\\n[30:00] "How Fighter Pilots Stay Sharp" (Evan Ratliff \\u2022 Men\\u2019s Journal \\u2022 Dec 2013)\\n[31:15] Zimmer\\u2019s Mosaic Archive\\n[33:00] "King of the Cosmos" (Playboy \\u2022 Jan 2012)\\n[35:00] Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey\\n[36:15] Star Talk\\n[38:30] "Global Warming Alters Arctic Food Chain, Scientists Say, With Unforeseeable Results" (New York Times \\u2022 Nov 2016)\\n[40:00] "Special Report: Endless Summer\\u2014Living With the Greenhouse Effect" (Andrew C.
