Episode description
From 19th century cyclists drinking mixtures of pesticides and cocaine to the pressure wrestlers feel to pass "The Airport Test," sports have a long history of athletes looking for anything that might give them an edge. Ellie and Nick discuss performance-enhancing drugs, and the pressures athletes go through that cause them to use.
