Put on your goggles because we're talkin science today! In today's episode, we go over the cognitive, emotional, motivational, and physiological processes that occur in your brain during sexual activity. (We also go into a lil mini off-topic conversation about some science hot takes and miscellaneous junk at the end of the episode!)
