Wyoh Lee
How do we connect? What makes a mutually satisfying relationship? What are other people into?
These are real human stories. Guests share details of their personal lives and/or work to add emotional context to the confusing experience of attempting to relate to other human beings. The goal? To learn from and more deeply understand one another through exchanges of personal wisdom and experience.
The focus is always connection and intimacy in our modern world: relationships, dating, friendship, cultural “norms” and taboos. Conversations explore vulnerability, shame, desire, pleasure, celebration, creative bucket lists, fantasy play spaces, irresistible invitations and so much more. Listen and share to co-create the story-based, connection-first sex ed we never got—but will all definitely benefit from. Let's co-create the new horizon of personal education, together. Let's learn from each other & spread ripples of love.

192 | Postcoital Cuddles: Bret’s Sex Stories
Bret (49 straight dude, monogamishly married to his partner of 11 years) loves to offer his wife pleasure and feels sexiest during postcoital cuddles. His dad taught him to always respect a partner’s boundaries, his friends had a great treehouse full of adult magazines, his first visual guide to understanding sex, but reading the articles is what led to his first boner, and everything up-leveled for his friend group when one of them got his hands on a VHS porno. Early experiences included misfires due to lack of condom preparedness, handcuffs and tickling with clothed making out, being undressed and masturbated by a partner who told him what to do. He will always remember the date of his first penetration and the underwear his partner wore, and tells stories about being happily surprised by a threesome and implicit, clear communication in the form of an outfit change request, his first blowjob (in the shower, on the day of a job interview), important lessons around anal, surprises, and explicit communication, and his methods for studying up on sex. He also shares his favorite position for a blowjob, a squirting mission accomplished, his dad’s Golden Pussy philosophy, being the center of attention in a threesome and the excitement of rules changing from one night to the next, and what it was like to tour with a femme rock band. He talks about holding space for his partner who is currently processing her own trauma, dreams of orgies, nostalgia for porn with storylines, and hopes for a consistent third and more awesome hotness with his wife.

191 | Food & Foot Play: Dr. Kyle’s Sex Stories
Kyle (30 heterosexual bisensual unpartnered cis m Sex Empowerment Coach, Sexy Content Creator & Doctor Of Physical Therapy from New York) loves sharing details about his sex life—including what it was like to have monkeypox, and he’s doing his part to make the world a sexier place by working as a sexual empowerment coach. He shares why he thinks authenticity is sexy, when meeting a partner’s desires makes him feel sexy, and has a hot chocolate syrup story he uses to illustrate how food can also sometimes be sexy. Limited sex ed and highly effective scary HIV education led him to initially swear off sex, but luckily it doesn’t last, and he tells us stories of living in Las Vegas, what it’s like to use dating apps in Sin City, where sneaky public sex is often possible, and walks us through the SPREAD talk, a framework for safer sex that includes Sexual Health, Preferences, Relationship Status, Emotions, Ask Your Partner, and Desires, and then talks about his training both in sacred sexuality and physical therapy. And then, stories: jerking off onto the wall as a kid, sticking his dick in a frozen cake, growing up around queer people, being a late bloomer, a freezing nervous virginity loss, and how a breakup led to lots of college sex that reflected to him: he was *good* at it, and it got him attention, and he reflects on how his lack of self-love and not knowing how to communicate made deeper connection elusive, and monogamy culture added confusing messages, and the type of growth-oriented work his done to address his trauma, and that led to partners encouraging him to teach other people about sex—because he loves it. And then, he tells us details of what he loves: creating a safe space for partners, and playing. We talk squirting, breath work, ticklishness, going slow, sensory play, light BDSM, a threesome that helped him find a magical spot on his foot, cock worship preferences, a take-it-or-leave-it anal attitude, prostatitis and how it makes anal play uncomfy, a consent-based threesome surprise, being a straight dude in a threesome with another dude, CNC play, his onlyfans and educational content, fantasies of future group play, hopes for conscious primary partnership, and details of how you can work with him. 🔗 KYLE LINKS | drkyledean.com / OF / Instagram

190 | Cross-Dressing & Man Thongs: Chase's Sex Stories
Chase (34 bisexual m monogamous married 10 years) has been with his wife for 13 years and towards the beginning of it, sexual shame was high, but now it’s barely there, replaced by lots of sexy conversations outside the bedroom with plenty of inspiration from erotic novels and sexy podcasts so they’re still sharing hot “firsts” together. He shares the details of what he finds sexy: confidence, butts, trust-building, shared intimacy, wearing his wife’s things, encouraging her to wear extra-skimpy things while on vacation, man thongs, open communication, being a voyeur of his wife in their own home, anal play, taboo fantasies, and shared goals of lifelong sexplorations. He also talks about how cross-dressing and wearing tight clothes make him feel sexy, meeting people in chat rooms who also liked talking about sex, what happened when he stumbled across a co-worker on a craigslist personals ad, the tough parts of dating a mormon girl, the ease of fooling around once they moved out of their parents’, details of his wife’s first orgasm, how openly they communicate about desire, and how taking penetration off the table has led to so much hotness. Other stories include coming out to his wife as bisexual, and the details of their mutual masturbation. Curious from a young age, he recalls formative experiences seeing other bodies for the first time, discovering pleasure on a linoleum floor, how he learned masturbation was “wrong” before he ever had a word for it, what truth-or-dare with neighborhood kids led to, what happened when he hit puberty before an early exploration friend, what watching soft core porn in junior high taught him about his own penis, and his first shaky hookup attempt with a dude in high school.

189 | Primal Body Worship: Jessiy’s Sex Stories
“Nothing can’t be used for impact play.” Jessiy (30s bisexual f brat with a praise kink who is in a 24/7 D/s dynamic with her partner of 2 years) gives us details of her funishments (thuddy) and punishments (stingy pain) and the phrases she uses to initiate more bratty play. Early years included seeking validation through sex and partnered trauma, and she talks about reconnecting with her body, building slowly, and says that her sex life has been the most profound part of her mental health journey. We get details about how connection and intimacy are important to her, and how she discovered kink for herself, nipple pinching a gateway to discovering pleasure and pain, and also get to hear about her favorite vibrators, and using a rabbit for double penetration-esque masturbations. She needs clit stimulation, gives incredible details about touching her pussy, and tells us about passing love notes to other girls when she was younger. We get to hear the intense way she reconnected with her partner, how she slowly felt into whether or not he was kinky, and get to hear about the amazing results: so much outdoor playtime (lots of forests), breeding, love-hate relationships with belts, how supportive he can be for her day-to-day life as a Daddy Dom, and what it’s like to manage a dynamic that is also a relationship when they live an hour and a half apart. And her advice to her younger self (and all of us) at the end is fucking spot on.

187 | Deep Kinky Connection: Wil’s Sex Stories
Wil (57 mostly straight but pan-curious married cis m) loves to surprise his wife with massages so she can relax, and has learned a ton about moving energy in sexy ways. Boundaries and confidence are sexy, and he’s open to noticing turn-on in everyday life. He shares how learning about tantra has influenced his experience and understanding of sex, his own sexual energy, and has influenced his ability to communicate about it. His early sex life included fear-based sex ed, and then real-life hard stuff: nervousness around hardness and getting laughed at, getting first chlamydia then HPV fairly early on in his partnered sex life, and initially struggling to figure out how to connect. However! Recent years have included surprising his wife with a former boyfriend (that led to a hot threesome), a year of solo poly, meeting his wife at a music festival, going to dungeons together, and exploring their edges, discovering what exactly they want to grow into together. He tells stories about hiding dirty magazines in baggy pants, how he realized connection and safety are vital for the kind of (deep, kinky) sex he ultimately wants, how that’s related to his hard-on, and what he learned from hiring sex workers on his cross-country road trip. He also reminds Wyoh OM-ing is on her bucket list, goes into details of how he likes to pleasure a partner, talks about what it’s like to have sex as he gets older, and speaks to the evolution of his ability to connect deeply and intentionally with his partners, which at one point included a bath facilitated for him by two beautiful goddesses, to help him practice receiving. Wil also talks about exploring with men, anal, and the feelings of uncertainty that come up for him, as well as the types of touch his body loves, porn phases he’s gone through and the specifics of what he finds erotic, and how his interests in leather work and rope are part of the power dynamic he and his wife have, what exploring more looks like, and this one hot time with a blindfold and a lot of incredible sensations.

186 | In My Mouth, On My Face: Princess’ Sex Stories
Princess (20 queer Nigerian cis F in a polyamorous relationship with her Dom) is not ashamed about sex, loves her kinky queer polyamorous life, and is navigating finding safe, satisfying, sex-positive community in Nigeria, where homosexuality is illegal—and she used to simmer in monogamous Disney Princess romance desires. She’s a research-based lover whose experiences have included lots of enthusiastic yeses, and lots of slowness that has led to hotness—as well as a lot of hot conversation that has led to hot physical action. Sex is part of Princess’ rebellion against the slut-shamey purity culture (that doesn’t apply to Nigerian dudes), and explains why she’s the “naughty” one of the family, sneaking to meet (or blow) boyfriends—and getting caught. We hear details of her sex life since going to University, how she learned to masturbate after having partnered sex for the first time—and squirted, and how she now creams more than squirts. 50 Shades of Grey was her introduction to kink (but not how you’d think), and she shares how she researched more on her own, so that by the time she met her now-Dom, she was ready and knew what she wanted. She offers stories in classrooms, hot group sex and hot consent culture of almost-group sex, and some surprising triumphs—SO many thoughtful conversational details, and stories of trying to pick up women as a girl, how she realized she’s “such a boob person,” how she puts her massage skills to work, plus the specifics of her facial fantasy that includes a mirror and her Dom, the best head she’s ever gotten, and how she’s grown to love his spit in her mouth. He is supportive of and turned on by her harlotry, and she talks about playing with blindfolds, nipple clamps, a whip, vibrators, butt plugs, and how she wants to explore anal and rope in the future.

185 | Sensation & Sploshing: James’ Sex Stories
“What if I wanna play with my food?” James’ (56 bi-curious submissive w dude who has been married for over 25 years) love of sploshing illustrates *exactly* why learning from primary sources is so awesome. He’s happily 25-years vanilla married and shares so many sex stories about how he’s becoming more active at his local swinger’s club to take care of his kinky parts. He shares his sploshing origin stories, and shares *excellent* details about the messes he’s made and the foods he’s played with, including: eggs, banana, maple syrup, Big Macs (guess where he put them!!!!), beans (guess where he squished them!!!), instant mashed potatoes (guess what the best splosh temp is!), melted ice cream, cakes, cupcakes, pies (pumpkin, chocolate cream, coconut cream), peanut butter and chocolate sauce, plus his current cake fantasy. James considers himself submissive, “available to pleasure others,” and talks about how his appreciation for being told what to do turned into a golden shower (or golden splash?) session, plus the other hot stuff his play Domme has done (like tie him to a chair, totally trash him, and then lay him down, put a cake on his…well, just listen). He has plenty of non-splash details too, and is a sensual lover who really loves touch. He shares swingers club play details that include anal fisting, group play in private rooms, his first cocksplorations, dual nipple sucking, specifics of the butt stuff he likes, more hot Dommes, and a really fun, hot ending to a dress-up night. He teaches Wyoh how easy it can be to be in a dynamic-less, vanilla place of pleasure, shares leash fantasies, glory hole experiences, how important connection is to him, and his only real sexual fear? Running out of new things to explore.
