This week we're talking about something intimate… and sometimes taboo: masturbation.
From self-love, to disordered behaviour and back again, we explore how our perceptions of masturbation have changed over the course of history and why it's still linked to shame and confusion for some.
Also, why do humans (and other animals) masturbate in the first place?
Just a heads up, if the topic didn't give it away, this episode may not be suitable for little ones.

When Casey Beros' dad was diagnosed with mesothelioma, she knew her entire world would change. 
More than three million Australians are carers — a role people are often thrust into without any kind of map. So based on her own experience, Casey wrote one.
On All in the Mind this week, what it takes to be a carer for a loved one. How to get through the tough conversations and difficult moments — from giving bad news to talking about voluntary assisted dying — and still come out the other end in one piece.
