There's a group of (mainly) men on the internet who try and go for as long as possible without masturbating or watching porn. It's called NoFap, and for many, it's a form of profound self-improvement.

Are they deluded and too quick to self-diagnose? Or more progressive than the rest of us?

This episode obviously features conversations about some fairly x-rated topics, so don't listen if that's not your thing.
