The Condom That Came With Maintenance Instructions
A London chemist sold a reusable condom around 1948. Sam explores the surprising history behind the everyday packet: changing materials, discreet packaging, disease-prevention marketing and the laboratory tests that make reliability more than a slogan.
Educational discussion of contraception and sexual health. Historical reuse practices are not current advice: modern condoms are single-use. This delayed episode was originally planned for 10 October; publication date reflects its actual release.
