Remember when slimline vibrators and stashed Hustler mags were all you could get your hands on?? Sarah and Robin take a walk down memory lane with Robin’s teenage journals! We tease and love hard on our younger selves while unpacking the challenges of coming into one’s self as an adolescent girl and all of the ways mysogynistic scripts shapes our sexuality. Join us showing some love, kindness and advice to our teenage selves.

An old friend, Mike Squillacioti, joins us to share the juicy details of how his marriage evolved into a throuple. We learn about his go-go dancing days at the iconic West Hollywood club, Mickeys, his sweet courtship with his hubby there, and how 12 years later they met their boyfriend, Dakota Payne, while (you guessed it) he was go-go dancing. We share laughs, revel in the joy of the dance floor and go-go dancing as the ultimate embodiment practice, and enjoy Mike’s sweet and saucy tales of non-monogamy. Sarah introduces Robin to the concept of compersion to round out the episode.

Robin's bro, Brian Jennings, joins us for a super nerdy conversation that spans D&D, Star Trek, Rocky Horror, and the quintessential latchkey upbringing that contributed to both Brian and Robin's individuality. Brian is a gamer, programmer and kinkster. When he discovered there were not any kinky virtual reality games on the market, he and his partner made one! Dominatrix Simulator utilizes the movement tracking available in VR, storytelling, and a 40 story tall Goddess and her Mistresses to get players into sub space. We talk about all of the cool, immersive features of the game while Brian gives Sarah and Robin an education on kinky adult games.

In the meantime, make sure to check out Dominatrix Simulator and have a pleasure-filled end to 2022!

Accomplished writer, podcaster (Why Are People Into That?!?), educator, and kink connoisseur, Tina Horn joins Sarah and Robin to unpack consensual non-consent. Tina brings her signature wit and intellect to this nuanced discussion about total power exchange. The conversation covers why non-consensual dynamics can be enticing to explore in play and the metaphorical nature of fantasy play. We dive into how complicated it is to clearly define consent and dismantle rape culture, the appeal of monster sex, BDSM as storytelling, and we learn about the 90s heartthrobs that left an impression on Tina. The conversation wraps up with a glimpse into Tina's process of developing her riveting, sex-positive, sci fi dystopian comic book series SfSx.CW: this episode touches on forced sex, and rape fantasies.

Lucie Fielding, author of Trans Sex: Clinical Approaches to Trans Sexualities and Erotic Embodiments, joins Sarah and Robin to dive into the concept of erotic embodiment. We explore Mary Poppins as a femme root, learn the term fluidic as an erotic experience, and discuss how the field of sex therapy is breaking out of some of it's puritanical underpinnings through the efforts of practitioners like Lucie (or Dr. Fielding, if you're nasty). Lucie also introduces us to the concept of gender pleasure and how it is taking shape in her work and delivers some expert tips on muffing that blow our minds.This episode is rich with references (links below) from Lucie's intersecting experience as a writer, erotic literary scholar, sex therapist, and pleasure-affirming, somatic practitioner.
