  • News and Views (0:40)
  • Matt is on this week! He's our producer and the host of Thirsty Brain!
  • The Thirsty Brain episode of Paleo Magazine Radio is here.
  • This week's topic: How often should you shower?
  • I've determined that a 105 degree shower is actually pretty typical. And Stacy's 95 degree showers are cold for most people. Also, neither are probably killing bacteria.
  • It was actually Queen Elizabeth who took the monthly bath, but bathing habits essentially did not change from the fall of the Romans to the 20th century. Bathing once a month was a sign of luxury.
  • Wiki has a great, well referenced article on body odor and sexual attraction. Including the link between ovulation and smell.
  • The Witches, that wonderful Roald Dahl documentary
  • While hot showers won't kill all parasites, it is shown to kill and wash off parasites in general, helping to keep them from becoming a problem.
  • How does soap work?
  • Human skin temperature
  • Here is the dubious Mother Dirt Probiotic soap
  • For the show on bacon and cancer, go here.
  • Go to iTunes for Thirsty Brain!
