Show Notes

Hormones were only discovered about a hundred years ago. But since then, they've taken on a lot of significance, both in science and in western culture. Before we find out how hormones affect just about everything, let's look at the history of these powerful molecules.

Our guest this week is Randi Epstein. She's a doctor, a medical writer and the author of: "Aroused: The History of Hormones and How They Control Just About Everything."
