Matt and I discuss Wilhelm Reich, a disciple of Freud who eventually broke away and formed his own theories on psychiatry, the most influential of which was orgastic potency. This was a wild episode, had a lot of fun with Matt. I'd recommend a few blog posts Matt has up as supplementary material, in particular his "Core Concepts" series, which include:

I. Libido – A basic definition of libido

II. Introduction to Libidinal Economy – A brief survey of the quantitative problem of libido
III. The Orgasm Theory – Part 1 – An overview of the orgasm theory and its development

V: The Orgastic Function – Part 1 – The biomechanics and electrophysiology of the orgastic function
VI: The Orgastic Function – Part 2 – The recapitulation of the function in other expressions
