Astrology has been around in various forms for thousands of years. Some people call it a pseudoscience, while many highly successful people base all of their major decisions on the stars. Where you stand on the subject is your business. I’m not an expert in astrology by a long shot, but I can’t help but notice that there are very similar traits shared by friends who were born under the same signs. Eerily similar sometimes. Plus, I’ve had plenty of vivid psychic premonitions come true and multipl...

Have you ever been in a situation so ridiculous that you started looking around for hidden cameras? Well my guest on this episode, actor Sarah Randall Hunt, had so many over the top horrible first dates (admittedly several of which were her fault), that she turned them into a very sweet rom-com web series called Stupid Cupid . As the co-creator, star and producer of the series, Sarah was forced to relive a lot of bad decision-making on camera. Part therapy and part cautionary tale, this is a sho...

One year ago, this week, the TV show I was writing sent everyone home because of COVID. We all figured it would be a week or two but that hiatus turned into a week or 52. Now, after a year of being locked at home, setting aside the non-stop stress of the past year, have you figured out how to enjoy private time with your partner in a house filled with other people? I’m guessing no. On today’s show, I speak with Dr. Shannon Chavez , a nationally recognized sex therapist, relationship expert, lice...

You’re in the throes of passion. Looking to add a whole new level to your pleasure, you want your favorite sex toy. Maybe there are kids in the house so you keep it stashed away behind those pants you’ll never fit into on the top shelf of your closet. Your partner goes hunting for it, they’re taking a long time, with every second you’re losing your mojo. They can’t find it. They’re yelling for you from the closet. Where is it?!?! You’re getting angry. GAHHHHH! Orrrrrr, you think you’re slick and...

Each of us experiences this transition to womanhood in our own special way, and it’s a day of your life you will never forget…no matter how hard you try. On this episode four very funny and brave women share their hilarious first period stories. SUWON WEAVER First up, is the hilari...

I found a funny quote the other day. It says… "Dating after 30 is easy. It’s like riding a bike. Only the bike is on fire. And the ground is on fire. Everything is on fire. Because you are in hell." Okay. Now imagine dating after 50! On this week’s show, I interview actress, voice artist and my good pal, Mari Weiss . Mari was on the podcast nearly two years ago in an episode called How Being Tied Up Released Me . She shared an amazing story about dating a guy who slowly-yet-firmly led her into t...

Grindr . Launched in 2009, it’s been called “the world’s biggest, scariest, gay bar” by Vanity Fair . And they ought to know. A location-based social networking and dating app used in almost every corner of the planet, Grindr reportedly has over 20 million members with over 3 million men using the app everyday — especially closeted Republicans who like to unwind with rent boys after an exhausting day of legislating against gay rights .

Sometimes, a lady just wants some company. As the poet laureate of our generation, Cardi B recently propounded, “I want you to park that big Mack truck, right in this little garage.” Who can argue with that? Unforch, quite a few garages are situated right in the middle of a global pandemic and locating an acceptable Mack truck and then making space for it in your garage can be a bit…challenging?

We’ve all been there. You have a few too many drinks with your friends. You go back to some guy's apartment. On the way in, you face plant and smash your front teeth. Okay, maybe that particular story hasn't happened to you, but it's definitely happened to someone. On Disaster Dates 2, every single story takes a turn for the ‘What the fuck?!?’ Leading off is the hilarious Gia Mora .

The year 2020 has been a total nightmare. A Year of Lies and Loss. 365 Days of Suck. A Crap-A-Palooza. Or, as one friend put it, 2020 has been A Great Steaming Shit-Fuck. Yes, in a year that seemed to be written by Stephen King, we’ve faced a global pandemic and endless idiots violently denying said pandemic. Millions of acres of Australia and California erupted in flames. The leader of the free world suggested we drink bleach as a health treatment. We had a stock market crash, riots erupted, mi...

We’ve all been there. A cozy downtown restaurant. You look amazing. The lights are low. As you peruse the martini menu, your date casually mentions that he identifies with serial killers. WAIT WHAT!?!?! Yup. Dating is no joke and sadly, it’s not getting any better out there. I even mention my worst date ever , featuring a total drunk (not me), a legendary Chicago blues singer (also not me), and someone getting punched in the face (hopefully not me). Good times. On this episode, you’re going to h...

In the not too distant past, actresses on television or film sets were asked to appear nude or to be in graphic sex scenes that made them feel uncomfortable, and they could either agree, or get fired. Women weren’t the only performers who were coerced, just a horrifically vast majority. As Kristen Lopez writes for RogerEbert.com in a 2018 piece called A Matter of Legitimacy: Female Nudity On-Screen : “…Hollywood marketing and audience interest still encourages the consumption of female bodies, i...

Fear is a natural, powerful human emotion. It alerts us to the presence of danger, or the threat of harm whether real or imaginary. A little fear is fine, it prevents you from doing stupid things. However, when it prevents you from experiencing things that can enhance your life and make you a happier and more authentic person, you really need to examine it. And then kick its ass. After conquering one of my biggest fears, I was inspired to share this story with you. Because, what seems like a pre...

It’s devoured by dedicated customers who can never get enough. It’s a global phenomenon with fans across every demographic. Yet, erotic literature gets very little respect. Henry Miller. Anaïs Nin.

I don’t know about the rest of you but it is non-stop sex having in my house. Oh totally! In between a home-schooled teen, the two of us working day and night, running errands for my elderly parents, trying not to watch the news, making sure all of the bills are getting paid, and wondering if there will ever be an end to this pandemic, our sex drives are OFF THE CHART! And when I say, “off the chart” I mean, nonexistent. Yeah, if your sex drive has vaporized, too, you are not alone. We are livin...

Did you know you can lose weight by having sex? What?!? That’s amazing! Two things I love, boning and toning. That has to be true, right? Welllllll…according to the Dr. Felix Sex Workout Calculator , a woman who weighs 140 pounds and has sex in the missionary position FOR AN HOUR, will burn 84.6 calories. To lose one pound of weight, you need to burn 3500 calories. So if a woman wanted to lose one pound of weight, she would need to have continuous missionary position sex for 41 hours. 41 straigh...

There’s a lot of misunderstanding about asexuality. Some believe if they’ve suddenly lost interest in sex, they’re asexual. Some believe that people “become” asexual as a result of sexual trauma. Some believe that asexual people just haven’t met the right person yet. Nope. Nope, and Nope. There’s a lot about asexuality that many people simply don’t understand. Looking for answers, I went to one of my very favorite sources of information in the world of sex and sexuality, renown psychologist and ...

A couple of years ago I was at a big national event for podcasters, journalists and writers in the world of sex. There were a lot of amazing speakers there but one woman was the talk of the entire show. She’s known as The Sexual Psychic and I had never met anyone like her before. She has this inexplicable way of seeing into everybody’s sexual future. After her speech, people were lined up for hours just to meet her. It was incredible. After two years of hand-written letters, because she refuses ...

Is your Master Bedroom a Sexy Romantic Oasis? Or Fifty Shades of No Way? People dream about remodeling their kitchens, bathrooms and creating fantasy backyards. But, what about the one room in the house where you spend more time than anywhere else? The room that’s supposed to be your private sanctuary. The room where your most important intimate time is spent. You know, the room that’s probably overloaded with mismatched bedding, unfolded laundry, pictures of your family, stuffed animals, unfini...

Are you in an “alternative” relationship? No, you are not, because there’s no such thing as an “alternative” relationship. Who’s to say what is alternative and what is mainstream? I’m guessing someone who’s in a so-called mainstream relationship. But to other folks, your mainstream relationship may actually look like an alternative relationship. Jesus, I’m writing like an Escher drawing. Let’s look at it this way. If you are a consenting adult and you are in a super happy relationship with anoth...

As you’re about to hear, this night was actually part of an amazing, three-day smutstravaganza I went on in Las Vegas. Don’t judge. I was away from home for weeks. I was facing a big birthday. I was dehydrated. Whatever the reason may be, I did engage in some very questionable behavior and you’re about to hear all about 2/3 of that behavior. The final piece will be revealed in my memoir. It’s...

Basically, it was a last minute Hail Mary that turned into a total blockbuster with my listeners. Which, of course, makes total sense.

I’m not the most adventurous eater. In fact, you can say I’m downright picky. There are some foods I flat out refuse to try. Brussels sprouts, lima beans, potato salad — even though I’d never tasted them, I was certain I hated them. Then one day my husband made brussels sprouts and I tried them. And I liked them! Hey Mikey! Now, whenever I’m in the mood, I eat brussels sprouts. Believe it or not, your sexual orientation has a lot in common with brussels sprouts. All of your life you can be convi...

You’re sitting down with your 10-year-old for a dinner of mac and cheese, chicken nuggets and grapes. All on separate plates, of course. On the table there’s a box of spilled apple juice, a few Snoopy stickers and several dried-out markers. Soccer gear is strewn on the floor alongside a few of this morning’s Cheerios and a naked Barbie missing half of her hair. It’s just another day. Until your kid turns to you and says, “Mom, I think I’m a lesbian.” How would you react in that moment? For many ...

Boundaries. The word itself can be as intimidating as barbed wire. Scary to set. Scary to express. Scary to defend. But you know what’s scarier than setting or defending boundaries? Having no boundaries at all. There’s a good reason you might be afraid to establish boundaries. Perhaps you were socialized never to make waves, or told to be obedient at all times otherwise you might upset someone. Or you were told that you’re responsible for everybody else’s feelings, or selfish if you ever put you...

That’s right, thanks to the pandemic, some folks are now opting for video platforms such as Skype, Zoom and FaceTime for their orgies. UK-based, high-end sex party club Killing Kittens hosted ...
