Better Orgasms in Weeks? How Start-Up Yarlap is Revolutionizing the Treatment of Urinary Incontinence, and Improving Pelvic Floor Tone & the Female Orgasm with MaryEllen Reider
Is it possible to start having stronger and harder orgasms within weeks? Quite simply, yes--and it all has to do with pelvic floor tone. The pelvic floor influences all aspects of women’s health, such as posture, bladder control and sex. MaryEllen Reider is the co-founder of the women’s wellness device Yarlap that uses neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES), to tighten and tone pelvic floor muscles. In this episode we discuss what the pelvic floor is, why it is so important for overall health, and that with the appropriate tools and techniques it is possible to achieve better orgasms, tone and control. What is often surprising to hear is that weakening starts in your 20's. By the time we are in our 30s, those muscles might be atrophied, causing self-taught pelvic floor exercises (like Kegels) to be impossible to do. Keeping those muscles toned and healthy are key to maintaining bladder control and intimacy wellness. It effects a myriad of issues including depression, sexual dysfunction, and anxiety.

'The Queen of Versailles' Jackie Siegel on the Opioid Epidemic in the U.S.
From an award-winning documentary to international fame, the Siegel family had it all. Jackie Siegel, known as the “Queen of Versailles,” and her family made international headlines for building their Florida mega-mansion with the hope that it would be the biggest house in the country. Ten years later, their dreams came crumbling down when the financial crisis hit and brought construction to a halt. But that was nothing compared to the nightmare that would follow. In June 2015 their daughter Victoria died of an overdose of methadone and antidepressants. In this interview, Jackie explains why she has made it her mission to speak out against the opioid crisis in America and how she plans on keeping the memory of her daughter alive through changes in legislation, her books, and the Victoria's Voice Foundation.

Actor + Comedian Eugene Mirman on Comedy, Love and Loss
This week I am sitting down with actor and comedian Eugene Mirman to discuss his incredible body of comedic work and his new documentary It Started As A Joke which chronicles the 10 years of the Eugene Mirman Comedy Festival, an independent festival started on a lark by the Bob’s Burgers’ alum. As explained by comics like Kumail Nanjiani and Kristen Schaal, Mirman is essentially a founding father of the Brooklyn comedy scene (he's been called the original “influencer”), and the festival’s success is a testament to his impact. But, true to its title, there’s a bit more on the documentary’s mind; we’re also introduced to Mirman’s wife, Katie Westfall Tharp, and learn how the two fell in love, had a son, moved to Cape Cod, and fought through Tharp’s cancer diagnosis and later recurrence. Tragically, Tharp died this past January, almost a year after It Started As A Joke premiered at SXSW. In its depiction of her kind spirit, the film now doubles as a bittersweet tribute to a loved one gone too soon. Ultimately, this is a candid conversation about doing work that makes you happy, pushing through the inevitable hardships and learning curves that follow, and having the courage to love with everything you have despite the pain of loss. It Started As A Joke is available now on Amazon, Google Play, Vudu, FandangoNow, Sony, and Microsoft Xbox. Thank you so much for listening! Subscribe on Apple Podcasts, and follow us on Instagram!
