SUMMER CLASSICS – 17 – Let’s Talk About Sex, Baby – Part 2 Jul 25, 2019

Show notes

Originally aired October 25, 2018. In this very NSFW episode, the follow-up to last week’s very NSFW episode, we talk about non-monogamy, “sexy time” management, swingers clubs, working through sexual trauma, butt plugs and more (!) with sexpert Casey Easton of Erotic Embodiment. We uncover a lot, and by “uncover,” I mean do a filthy strip-tease. The bulk of this was recorded with a handheld recorder, so the sound isn’t up to snuff, but we hope you’ll forgive us, since this is such a f*cking good episode. Love you, Tigers! You can find Casey at www.eroticembodiment.ca or www.caseyeaston.com. Sarah and Melody are at the usual places. Also, friends: we are on Patreon! We’d deeply appreciate it if you could support us for as little as $1/month. Check out www.patreon.com/teachmetigerpodcast. Thank you so much!

SUMMER CLASSICS – 17 – Let’s Talk About Sex, Baby – Part 1 Jul 18, 2019

Show notes

Originally aired October 18, 2018. We had the good fortune of sitting down with sex educator and amazing superwoman Casey Easton of Erotic Embodiment for this titillating episode. In Part One, Casey gives her top five Just The Tips for better sexual health and pleasure, and you won’t believe the wealth of knowledge she shares with us. This is seriously like a TED Talk on intimacy, sex, relationships and body positivity. Ugh, it is just SO GOOD! You will not want to miss it. We should all hear it, and our partners should all hear it too. Tune back in, in a week for even more, when we bring you Part Two. You can find Casey at www.eroticembodiment.ca or www.caseyeaston.com. Also, friends: we are on Patreon! We’d deeply appreciate it if you could support us for as little as $1/month.

This week, your intrepid hosts Melody and Liz (sports dummies) get a little Sportsing 101 from guest Nikki Rochon Kaiser (sports enthusiasm expert.) Coral Sproule (snackspert) and her amazing soft pretzels stop by to chat stadium snacks, and we all enjoy a little (a lot of) delicious cold beer courtesy of Longslice Brewery. In this sometimes anthropological look at sports and sports fans, we cover all the bases (see what we did there?) including but not limited to: pizza toppings, team allegiance, crying in baseball, the Toronto Raptors, the Legend of Dock Ellis and a first-hand account of Jose Bautista's infamous 2015 bat flip. EDIT: When Nikki was talking about Kevin Pillar being Canadian, she was thinking of Michael Saunders. Whoops! (Thank you, Longslice!) Thanks the Aviary and Longslice, for the brew.

Show notes

This episode is bittersweet like dark chocolate and HOT HOT HOT like a ghost pepper.

30 – Call The Midwife (Midwifery w/ Josée Nolet & Rebecca Raper) Apr 25, 2019

Show notes

It's DIRTY THIRTY! In this thirtieth episode, we sit down with some of our midwife pals, Josée Nolet and Becca Raper of Generations Midwifery (Brockville, ON). Both of these lovely ladies took care of Sarah through her pregnancy and the birth of her youngest son. We talk about cool scars, birth stories, midwives vs. obstetricians, and some of the peaks and pits of being a midwife (spoiler: watching women empowered in their bodies and regularly experiencing the miracle of life trumps all the bad stuff.) Also, Sarah and Melody compare transition in childbirth to doing hard drugs. But DON'T DO PCP! Especially not while you're in labour! There was sadly a technical issue with Josée's mic, and we've done our best and fanciest footwork to fix it, but please accept our apologies for her audio not being up to snuff. To find the Marvellous Midwives, check out their practise group Generations Midwifery Care at generationsmidwifery.ca or facebook.com/generationsmidwifery You can find Sarah at instagram.com/justthetiphandpoketattoos and Melody at melodystarkweather.ca
