Probably all beaches were nude early on, but as society developed and body shame became all the rage, people started wearing bathing suits. Some, though, liked the way it was before.

AI Summary

Josh and Chuck dive into the surprisingly wholesome world of nude beaches and naturism in this episode. They kick things off with Josh's entertaining story about losing a tooth during a vacation in South Carolina, then pivot to exploring the rich history and etiquette of clothing-optional beaches around the globe. You'll learn that contrary to popular belief, genuine naturist communities are family-friendly, non-sexual spaces where people simply enjoy their bodies without shame—and they'll reveal which countries are most accepting of nude sunbathing, plus some hilarious tips for beach etiquette that apply whether you're clothed or au naturel.
