Episode 8 of Extreme Brains, “Your Brain on Sex,” explores why sex plays a powerful role in human behavior. We break down the evolutionary origins of reproduction and pleasure, the social machinery that turned sex into power and identity, and whether removing moral weight from sex might lead to healthier societies. With insights from neuroscience, culture, and tech, the episode reveals how our brains are wired for more than just survival—they’re wired for strategy.
