Buckle up, history besties—this episode is not safe for work (unless you’ve got headphones and a rebellious streak). We’re diving deep into the history of sex with none other than Esmé Louise James, the brilliant mind behind Kinky History!

In this delightfully scandalous conversation, we uncover:

🔥 How Esmé went from studying religious history to becoming a sex historian

🔥 The wild story of how the history of the dildo launched her career

🔥 The medieval obsession with…well, rimming and witchcraft (yep, you read that right)

🔥 How history’s censorship laws gave birth to tentacle hentai

🔥 The long-standing and surprisingly biological reasons behind the world's foot fetish

But beyond the laughs, this episode is also about representation in history. Esmé’s book isn’t just a collection of spicy facts—it’s a love letter to anyone who’s ever felt like their identity wasn’t reflected in the history books. Because let’s be real: there is nothing new under the sun.

Want to keep the kinky history party going? Support Esmé by grabbing a copy of Kinky History in print, digital, or audiobook (trust us, you’ll want to hear her narrate that passage). And while you’re at it, subscribe to For the Love of History for more weird, wonderful, and eyebrow-raising stories from the past.

Now go forth, spread the historical filth, and stay curious! 🎙️🔥
