#172 Giles Brindley, the Needle, and the Penis (with Callum Fraser) - a podcast by Cam Fraser

On this special episode of #mensexpleasure, I welcome with my brother, Callum, and we do something a little different. I regale him with a story about British physiologist, Giles Brindley. This is our foray into the history/comedy genre of podcasting. As such, we have a few drinks and a bit of fun.

Key points:

- Welcome Callum

- Who is Giles Brindley?

- Visual prostheses and eye experiments

- Spinal prostheses and side effects

- The hour lecture that changed sexual medicine

- Brindley's legacy
