A woman had a full body orgasm during a performance of Chikovsky's fifth symphony by the LA Philharmonic. Dave Pizarro: Did you know women could have orgasms? Tamler Summers: I'm like, good for her unless her boyfriend was trying to finger her during that. Very bad wizards is a podcast with a philosopher, my dad, and psychologistDave Pizarro,. having an informal discussion about issues in science and ethics.
David and Tamler take the first excursion into the work of Haruki Murakami and talk about his short story “Sleep.” A thirty-year-old woman, the wife of a dentist and mother of a young boy, has a terrifying dream and when she wakes up, she no longer needs to sleep. This isn’t insomnia, it’s something else – she has never felt so alive, strong, and awake. She can swim laps for an hour in the afternoon and read Anna Karenina with perfect concentration until dawn. What is this condition? Is it real? What does it tell us about her past, her sense of self, her alienation from friends, family, and her role? This is a banger of a story folks, check it out.
