Wendy Zuckerman

Science Chats with our favorite nerds.

Hi, I'm Wendy Zuckerman, and today on the show, we are talking about the science of sex, and in particular, how scientists have desperately and awkwardly tried to study sex for decades.

Yes, today we bonk, which is possibly the best word for sex, followed closely by stoop.

But Bonk is also the title to Mary Roach's best selling book on this very topic.

And even though Bonk was written a hot minute ago, it is still this fabulous, highly relevant book.

The science is still mind blowing.

So today we are talking to Mary about her book.

We uncover the mysteries of orgasms.

We'll tell you how to sexually stimulate a pig, also a human.

Yes.

We'll talk about how to have mind-rippling sex.

If you are listening to this on Spotify, you could be watching it too.

It's on video.

After the break, my interview with the amazing Mary Roach.

Coming up.

Welcome back today on the show, my interview with the amazing science writer, Mary Roach, and we're talking about her book, Bunk, which is absolutely fabulous.

So let's just get into it.

Mary Roach, I'm so excited.

They say never meet your heroes, but here we are.

So thank you so much for joining us on the show.
