Chuck and Josh test the limits of their decorum as they explore the physiology of an orgasm. Learn all about this inexplicably taboo subject (including how even women who are paralyzed can experience orgasms) in this episode of Stuff You Should Know.
Join Josh and Chuck as they dive into the fascinating science behind what happens in your brain during an orgasm, from the complex network of nerves that send signals up the spinal cord to the flood of chemicals like dopamine and oxytocin that create those intense sensations. The hosts explore everything from the different nerve pathways involved to groundbreaking research showing how people with spinal injuries can still experience climax, while keeping the discussion mature, educational and surprisingly enlightening. It's a topic that's been scientifically understood for less than a century, and the discoveries are pretty remarkable.
