Tested (Ep 2): Questions of a Physical Nature

We go back almost 100 years, to the beginning of women's inclusion in elite sports. It turns out that men had an odd variety of concerns about women athletes. Some doubted these athletes were even women at all. And their skepticism resulted in the first policies requiring sex testing.

Tested (Ep 1): The Choice

New from NPR's Embedded podcast and CBC in Canada: Would you alter your body for the chance to compete for a gold medal? That's the question facing a small group of elite athletes right now. Last year, track and field authorities announced new regulations that mean some women can't compete in the female category unless they lower their body's naturally occurring testosterone levels. You'll meet one of those runners, Christine Mboma, a reigning Olympic silver medalist, and hear about the difficult choice she faces. Tested is a six-part series, you can binge all the episodes now in the Embedded podcast and the CBC feed. Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoices NPR Privacy Policy

I cannot praise this podcast enough. Very intelligent and well spoken presenters, interesting topics and great presentation. A welcome break from the politics and entertainment “news” of so many podcasts. What a shame it was discontinued. But the previous years’ shows are still available.
Thought my favorite podcast was back

There is nothing worse than thinking NPR had finally come to their senses and brought this amazing podcast back only to find out they are using the Invisibilia subscription feed to push Embedded instead. What a disappointment. Bring back Invisibilia!
