Hello everyone and welcome to talk nerdy today is Monday November 2nd

2020 and I'm the host of the show Kara Santa Maria and yes I know tomorrow is election day for those of us in America and no I'm not

going to get into it because I am not stressed at all about it not at all you want to see me vent, check out my Twitter.

But in the meantime, we're actually

going to do an awesome show today.

Before I get into it, I do want to thank those of you

who make Talk Nertie possible each and every week.

I'm gonna give a shout out to my top patrons if you want to be a part of this amazing group just

visit patreon.com slash talk nerdy. This week I want to thank Michael Goshé, Mary Niva,

Christopher Pitts, June Sapphara, Pasqualee, Orica Hagman,

Dudas, Charles Payet, Brian Holden, Pedro Ambrosario Barbosa, Daniel Lange, David J. E. Smith, Robert

Christ, and Elise Christie. Thank you all so freaking much.

All right, this is a good one, you guys.

I have the opportunity to speak with Dr. Emily Willingham

about her newest book,

fallacy, that's fallacy with a pH,

a little bit puny there,

fallacy life lessons from the animal penis.

Yes, I know know but we go a lot further, I'm not going to fall for that

pun trap, a lot further than just the penis. This is actually I don't know why you would be surprised, but a pretty deep

conversation about a lot of really important things that we know as scientists, that medical professionals know and what they don't know because of the

history of how we have studied gender and biological sex within the animal kingdom.
