Hanging in the garage of Fire Station #6 in Livermore, California, there’s a small, pear-shaped light bulb. It is glowing right now.
This lightbulb has been glowing, with just a couple of momentary interruptions, for 113 years. You can see it glow in real time.
The bulb is a genuine heirloom from the dawn of electric illumination, built by one of its pioneers: Adolphe Chaillet.

McDrafty's Last Ride

Why don’t we understand how the female orgasm works? After years of scientific research, the male body is understood but when it comes to how women work, we are a long way behind. Why is there this gap in knowledge? 



It appears research has been hindered by the assumption that the female body works in the same way as the male body and that for women, arousal is all in the mind. There’s also a general attitude that studying sexual pleasure isn’t important and that female orgasms aren’t important to study as they serve no purpose for reproduction.



Researchers are slowly correcting these assumptions and making surprising discoveries.



We’ll take you behind the scenes to two orgasm labs to bring you the latest research on how orgasms work for women. We’ll also hear from Callista, who struggled with excruciating pain during sex for many years but was told the problem was all in her mind. Her journey to diagnosis shows how little is known, even amongst gynaecologists and doctors, about female sexual pleasure.

The Female Orgasm

Parce que certains sextoys ont des voix intégrées, ils nous racontent, en creux, ce que nous aimerions entendre. Attention, ce podcast contient des voix d'hommes gutturales chaudes comme la braise. Et pas mal de vibrations.
Sexe & sounds, le podcast de Maïa Mazaurette : des bruits du porno aux sextoys qui parlent, des langues de l'amour aux mystères de l'ASMR et des musiques qui donnent envie... 
Réalisation : Samuel Hirsch - Texte & voix : - Maïa Mazaurette

En France, on n'a peut-être pas de pétrole, mais on a du sexe. Enfin, du moins, on a la langue la plus sexy - selon les sondages du monde entier, année après année. Mais au fait, pourquoi nous ? Parce qu'on est beaux et qu'on sent le fromage ? Découvrons ensemble les vraies raisons, rythmiques, phonétiques et cosmétiques, pour lesquelles pour une fois... la France gagne UNE compétition.

The caretaker

Avec près de 2 millions d’écoutes mensuelles, la pionnière du podcast ARTE Radio est un acteur majeur de ce nouveau media. La radio web d’ARTE propose chaque mois des rendez-vous de référence sur les féminismes (Un podcast à soi par Charlotte Bienaimé), les écrivains d’aujourd’hui (Bookmakers de Richard Gaitet), mais aussi des conseils pour surmonter nos crises écologiques ou intimes (Vivons heureux avant la fin du monde par Delphine Saltel), ainsi qu’un « dessin d’humour sonore » hebdomadaire signé Olivier Minot (Dépêche). Autant de podcasts produits avec un soin particulier apporté à la prise de son, au montage et aux musiques originales.
A côté de ces émissions régulières, ARTE Radio produit avec la même passion pour le récit sonore des documentaires et des fictions d’auteurs en unitaires (Profils) ou en série (A suivre).
