If you can make it through the icky descriptions during the first part of Radiolab's latest episode, it's worth it. There's a lot of great stories about life-sucking creatures large and small, from bloodflukes to cats, and the way they keep coming back to hookworms is very satisfying.
The show also touches on why parasites are considered such low forms of life, and raises questions about why we consider certain methods of flourishing and reproducing to be cheating, and other methods, honest.
