Before the idea for a show featuring Jad Abumrad and Robert Krulwich, which did not emerge until November 2003, Abumrad produced radio documentaries that featured himself and others. Some of this material has been re-packaged and broadcast under the Radiolab banner.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22]
