Our TOPPODCAST Picks 
Stay ConnectedThe podcast that answers the questions you’re not allowed to ask. A 2026 Ambie nominee for Best Indie Podcast.
It’s science class if science class had one of those anonymous question boxes. Why don’t we eat people? Why are foot fetishes a thing? Do we still need animal testing? Why is it so easy to misgender someone? Each episode takes on one taboo: the history behind it, the psychology and science that explain it, and what we lose when we refuse to talk about it, all with the help of researchers who study these taboos and the everyday people they affect.
“I can honestly say I’m a more empathetic person as a result of following your pod.” —Meagan C., listener survey respondent
