# Kinky History

A podcast by Dr Esmé Louise James. Kinky History is a podcast series that explores the evolution of human sexuality - from scandalous stories from the Ancient World to the saucy secrets of famous figures. By speaking openly about these topics in a way that is educational, entertaining, and accessible, Kinky History aims to erase dangerous taboos which still exist around identity, gender, and sexuality. Esmé created her "Kinky History" series on TikTok in 2020. It has since grown to a following of over 3.5 million people from around the globe.
