<![CDATA[ They said it couldn't be done: The "male pill." Actuality asks why men haven't seen a new reversible contraceptive in centuries—and if we need one. We found out why Big Pharma gave up on a male pill, and meet people who want to make it happen anyway.Correction: In this episode we refer to "The Pill" by Jonathan Eig. The correct title of Eig’s book is "<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Birth-Pill-Crusaders-Reinvented-Revolution/dp/0393351890">The Birth of the Pill</a>."  ]]>
