Understanding (and Fulfilling) Our Sexual Fantasies feat. Dr. Justin Lehmiller Nov 15, 2021

Show notes

Oh yesss, we have an erotic and educational episode for y'all! We're so excited to chat with sex educator and author Dr. Justin Lehmiller about fantasies, fetishes, f*cking your friends, and more. We're discussing the psychology behind fantasies and kinks (yes, including foot fetishes), threesomes and tips for successful/enjoyable ones, cuckolding questions, and even how your political affiliation can play out in the bedroom. Justin is also sharing the truth (and data) behind friends with benefits, and we dive into casual sex and why it's more difficult for women to indulge in. Before he joins us, we're recapping our wild Cancun trip, Rayna's post-breakup turnaround, and Ashley's missed connection. Enjoy!

Are You Dating a Narcissist? feat. Dr. Ramani Durvasula Sep 27, 2021

Show notes

It's the long overdue, much-needed episode on narcissists with a true expert -- clinical psychologist, professor of psychology, and best-selling author Dr. Ramani Durvasula. We are discussing what a narcissist actually is, why people are attracted to them, what dating one looks like, what to do/how to leave if you're dating one, and the effect dating a narcissist can have on you. Dr. Ramani also breaks down the differences between narcissists, sociopaths, and psychopaths, and we hit her with burning questions like "What happens when two narcissists date?" and "Are we all a little bit narcissistic?" Before she joins us, we catch up on Ashley's ghosting situation, and a trash DM Rayna received. Hope you enjoy!
