Thousands of hours of porn are consumed globally every single minute, yet we still avoid the topic of porn in most conversations and social situations. This taboo leads to a lot of people feeling worried about their porn habits. How did we get here? In this episode, we find out just how much porn people are watching and society’s attitudes around it. We cover a brief history of porn, the impact of porn going online, and the significance of a pornographer in Prague calling us all perverts.

Patricia Nilsson, reporter for the Financial Times and host of the podcast Hot Money: porn, power and profit.

The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship.

To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
