Science Vs Podcast Is Ballsy Enough To Discuss Blue Balls

 It’s been said that blue balls are incredibly painful. But is that true? 

Or is it a scam that men make up to pressure women to have sex with them? 

 To crack this nut, “Science Vs” has done an extensive blue balls survey of 2,257 people, where they spoke to urologists, surgeons and sex researchers and special guest, Sarah Marshall from “You're Wrong About.”

It's a ball-busting episode that puts blue balls to the ultimate test-es, and reaches a very gripping conclusion as we ask: Are blue balls real -- and can people with vaginas get them too? Listen to Blue Balls: You’re Wrong About Them -- the newest episode of Spotify’s Gimlet podcast “Science Vs” -- the show that breaks down what’s fact, what’s not, and what’s somewhere in between.

Science Vs is now in its 11th season and continues to decipher facts from myths. In an age of rampant misinformation, Science Vs strives for accuracy and scientific credibility while not afraid to sometimes conclude, "the data shows we're not sure."

Hosted by Australian science journalist Wendy Zukerman, Science Vs is successful because of two primary reasons. First, Zukerman’s good-natured humor topples listener expectations about what a science podcast should sound like. Second, the unique mission of the podcast --using scientific investigative techniques to separate fact from myth – sparks interest, controversy and insight.

In a post-truth world, Zukerman and her team of scientific detectives take on incendiary topics in today’s zeitgeist, such as gun control, vaccinations, climate change, organic food, and even the G-spot.
