A podcast about myths we think are history and history that might be hidden in myths! Awesome stories that really (maybe) happened!
Canada's weekly podcast that explores a wide range of controversies and curiosities using science and critical thinking.
Turn me on podcast is a no holds barred conversation about what it is to be a sexual being in the world. Hosted by Jeremie and Bryde, a married, poly, adventurous couple who love to talk to people about S-E-X, the conversation is geared toward getting real about pleasures of the flesh with intelligence, humour and maybe a little pillow talk. Our GDPR privacy policy was updated on August 8, 2022. Visit acast.com/privacy for more information.

Taking the lead from Jeremie's life long battle with Cystic Fibrosis, the three best friends help us understand that sometimes the best way to deal with illness, disease and life is simply to laugh.
