エピソード
  • Freud, Princess Bonaparte, and The Big "O"
    2025/04/08

    Napoleon (yeah, that one) had a great grand-niece who was REALLY into the female orgasm. She did a whole lot of research, writing, and even surgery to try to "fix" it. Of course she enlisted the help of Dr Sigmund Freud in her quest, but he couldn't figure out how to fix it either.

    Join us this week as we explore this distant relative of the Emperor and how she managed to care so deeply about such a personal subject, that she was willing to go under the knife so she could experience something that almost no woman does, because men called it "normal".

    Have you had your orgasm today?

  • Sarah Baartman: The "Hottentot" Venus
    2025/04/01

    Sarah was born in Southern Africa and had her life turned completely upside down for the sole reason that she did not look like white, European women. She was very intelligent, speaking several languages. She was also stolen from her home and put on display as if she were no more than a sub-human side show.

    Join us this week to find out what it took for her to be considered so supremely exotic that she had to be taken from her home and put on display for europeans to gawk at - primarily due to a dire lack of understanding, education, and willingness to see other people from other parts of the world as human - just like them. It's not like any episode is particularly light-hearted or "fun", but this one really is a rage-inducer for many reasons. These stories need to be shared and understood if we want history to stop repeating itself, so let's dive in.

  • Cut it Out! How to Deal With a Pesky Clitoris
    2025/03/25

    It's the final episode in Clitoris month and MAN is it a doozy! Men tend to be doozies when it comes to the female body and the clitoris has really stuck in their craw since they decided that it does exist and it's not the Devil's mark on a witch (go back a couple episodes for that).

    This week we tackle all the horrible things that men have done, in the name of medicine, health, and "care" to maim women and misunderstand a very important part of their bodies. We promise, it gets a tiny bit hopeful at the end, so you should stick around until then to hear the "Salad Bowl" theory from Matt's old friend Wayne.
