BIRTH CONTROL is this ep of our #WeDidntStarttheFire pod. Did you know that medieval damsels tied weasel testicles around their thighs to disarm baby batter?
Here is a very responsible billy goat in his anti-mating apron cuddling with his lady.

Is there a support group for people who read this novel at precisely the wrong age?
I mean, it's way too late for me, but I'd still bung them a tenner out of goodwill...
Stranger in a Strange Land might seem like an interesting premise, but it’s also a 14 year old’s very confusing wet dream…
What a topic for @CaraRodway to return on!❤️🔥

@Kevin_Fong Hi. It would be really really cool if you'd cover the Moonshot episode of a podcast I follow @spreadthatfire I adored your 13 Minutes doc and cannot think of anyone else better than you. The pod covers post war history based on the Billy Joel song. It's really good!

Another good ‘un, though must admit this lyric and the previous Rhee one must have passed me by. How have I not heard them before despite hearing Billy’s opus many many times 🤷🏼♂️. Always an education! – at Manchester, England

Dipped into DOT COM: Wikipedia while waiting for @spreadthatfire latest episode. Thought how can anybody make a series on wiki interesting, how wrong I was, binged it in a couple of car journeys. 👏🏼👏🏼 – at Macclesfield, England

dot com is currently sitting at #2 in the @ApplePodcasts technology charts!

Incredible episode. Listening to Jean’s story 💔 - shocking that there is no acknowledgement in the US and that the German company was never held accountable. I learned so much listening today, when I thought I knew about this scandal. I just never knew the full story.

Space Monkeys were the first astronauts in US/USSR's '50s space race. This guy Sam made it back to Earth safe…and hungry: he gobbled down the oranges handed to him as soon as his capsule landed. A poignant ep of our history pod:

The #BenHur chariot race is one of the greatest action sequences of all time—Charlton Heston & Stephen Boyd did most of their own stunts! Heston’s stunt double almost got killed, and the footage stayed in the film. More on our pod:
