Eden Atwood is an intersex woman. She was born with androgen insensitivity and internal testes so her body, like 2% of the population isn't male or female.

Episode 7: HOLD UP, DID YOU SAY GENITALS? featuring Eden Atwood

Dr. Doe and Dr. Chaves went to sex school in their twenties and they've enjoyed being sexologists. This episode is a reflection on the paths they took and their recommendations for those who are curious about the career.

Dr. Doe talks with Shan Boodram (a fellow clinical sexologist and YouTuber) about the importance of sex education and their dream novels they each want to write.

Episode 10: MASTURBATING ON A BALCONY featuring Shannon Boodram

Sarah Aswell is one of the leading ladies in our local comedy scene and a captivating freelance writer. She sat down with me and we got to talk about being orgasmic, whether or not vaginal orgasms are real, what suggestions we have for people with anorgasmia, our thoughts on vibrators, our thoughts on food, and how not all of orgasm's history is as good as they feel. 
Sextra Credit: Talk to others about orgasming nonchalantly and draw vulvas on the windshields of your car's dirt. Or not, we're all about consent and safey here on the Sexplanations Podcast. Ancora Imparo.

Episode 13: "SO THIS VENTRILOQUIST..." with delightfully curious co-host Sarah Aswell

Stevie Boebi is a popular YouTuber based in Los Angeles. She came to visit me in Missoula, Montana and I asked her to talk with me about sexual injustices. In her words everything about her life is political because she identifies as a lesbian, and so there are a lot of injustices: sex education, relationships, advertising, and the media. Check out her channel youtube.com/stevie and keep learning.

Episode 19: WHAT'S THIS HUMP with Stevie Boebi

Eva has a sex education YouTube channel she's built from the ground up. No Green-Brothers golden ticket for her. She's doing it and she's doing it well! In this episode we talk about our favorite sex things, how we're both nerdy in our collection of sexual objects. It's a shout-out to this episode of the Sexplanations YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IpWn6Hf_5OI

Episode 22: WHAT'S MY BODY DOING with the up-and-coming Eva

Kenton founded Sex Geekdom in the DC area, he revolutionized the sex toy industry, and when asked what his future goals are they mainly consist of supporting other creators. What a cool guy! In this conversation I get to learn about Kenton's manufacturing process, how to stimulate the A-spot, and whether or not silicone on silicone is problematic. It's sex geeky and I love it!

Episode 28: LEARNING ABOUT DILDOS BY SUSPENDING THEM IN JARS OF SCIENCE with Kenton of Funkit Toys

I invited sex geek, former Navy, soon-to-be librarian, and dear friend Peter to talk with me about the benefits of sex. It turns out there isn't just a health list of benefits, so much more of our lives have been beneficially impacted thank goodness! 
In this episode Peter and I talk about our meet cute. We discuss leftover sperm in the urethra and review a past episode of the Sexplanations YouTube channel. What's the drill metaphor? Do the benefits of sex outweigh the disadvantages? Are we going to continue having it? How should we respond to our partners shitting the bed? Why do we admire Kenton? How can we access high quality sex education?

Episode 29: OUR FRIENDSHIP IS A BENEFIT OF SEX determined by Peter Musser

Roe and I know each other in a lot of different capacities. That's the nature of Missoula, Montana where we live. Roe's been a friend, a colleague, and most recently the director for the outdoor leadership camp my kids have attended. Roe is impressive and in this episode you'll hear that. We talk about one of the smartest approaches to healthy relationship education and how to make moon bags. We plot our own programs and ask questions about some of our curiosities. Ancora imparo; I'm still learning.

Episode 52: THE BYSTANDER EFFECT with Roe

I went on a date with Amy in 2017. She tells the story of how we met and how it went. Then I do. I basically didn't know how to flirt with her beyond the scientifically prescribed steps and she points out that yeah, she didn't know I was trying to make advances. Is it because I'm heterosexual? Am I baby gay? How much of it is fear? What can I do to signal that I want to be hit on by women? Why don't I hit on women?

SEXtra Credit: The next time you're out with friends, ask a friend to choose a person in the room for you to talk to/flirt with. Then switch and identify a person for your friend to talk to/flirt with.

Episode 55: HOW TO FLIRT WITH A WOMAN with my one and only lady date Amy

Before this conversation I hadn't talked with Sam about anal sex. I invited her to be on the Sexplanations Podcast and gave her the topic but we didn't say anything else. When we sat down to record it was really fun to hear how much she had to share about her own experiences, her interest in anal porn, and her feelings on negotiating anal in future relationships. We also talked about vibrators, masturbation, healthy lifestyles, meditation, pussy massage, trauma, and the difference between g-spots and prostates. Hopefully this episode serves as a model for how to talk about sexuality, specifically anal play. Anal is growing in popularity and traditional sex education hasn't kept us. We need resources like the Sexplanations Podcast to serve as a resource for people who are curious and or experimenting.

Episode 59: "I'M SO HIP TO ANAL" with Sam Philly

Stella and I first met on the set of Sexplanations How to Touch a Boob episode. As a model and a burlesque dancer she was comfortable working with me to demonstrate breast healthcare and pleasure. What I didn't know is that she's made a career out of removing pubic hair for people and this brings up many opportunities to help clients embrace their own unique genitals. Stella and I talked about her experiences in the salon and revisited some of the questions I've been asked about oral sex (not that those two are related). She was really easy to talk with and took the Main Squeeze Kegels segment to a new level: the floor. I hope you enjoy our sex curious conversation and learn something new. I'm still learning. 

SEXtra Credit: Perform oral sex on someone with consent if you have a partner who is menstruating and or try putting some of your own menstrual blood on your face. Acquire, offer, and or use dental dams. Bonus: experiment with different pubic hairstyles.

Episode 61: ORAL SEX, BRAZILIAN WAXING, & BODY IMAGE with Stella Pearl

Four years ago I made a video about using less harmful language, avoiding words that were exclusionary, offensive, or inaccurate. Soon after this Seththinksthoughts, a vlog-style YouTube channel posted a video adding the list of harmful words and suggesting alternatives. I loved it and reached out to Seth. Over these years we've kept in touch and tried to encourage intellectual growth in each other. So when it came time to revisit the Sexplanations episode about less harmful language, I knew exactly who I wanted to talk to about it! Seth is in Hong Kong (not Japan) teaching music and was willing to do a video call at 5 AM his time to pull this off. It was delightful! 
Here are some of the things we reference in the podcast:
Joyful Heart Foundation

Episode 64: USING LESS HARMFUL LANGUAGE with SethThinksThoughts

When I thought about the task of reviewing 22 different sex topics in one setting, I knew I needed to talk to an expert. Who would have a sex positive, well-researched, and open-minded perspective of such a broad range of topics? Allison Moon! 
I met Allison in San Francisco. She and her partner Reid (episode 11) invited me to stay when I was in town and made me a fantastic dinner. I was immediately intrigued by them both. 
Allison is the author of Girl Sex 101, Bad Dyke, and a lesbian werewolf series Tales of the Pack. She's also considered a leading sex educator and excellent human being. In this episode we discuss vaginismus, demisexuality, polyamory, BDSM, and cock rings. We didn't make it through all 22 on the list but were able to have a meaningful conversation about most. 
SEXtra Credit: Masturbate and if you already masturbate, masturbate in a new way. Get your genitals attuned to different kinds of touch. Read Allison Moon's book Girl Sex 101.

Episode 71: I'M A LOVER OF THEIRS with author and sex educator Allison Moon

Tracy visibly loves multiple people. She identifies as polyamorous and knows a great deal about relationship dynamics. I have a lot of questions for her and we talk it all out. Love, family, language, and sexuality. 
SEXtra Credit: Try mobile Kegels. Tracy tries to clench while walking but hasn't figured it out. Do you have a strategy or technique for moving your feet or body while simultaneously working out your crotch? 
SEXtra, SEXtra Credit: Think about the last time you felt jealous. Where did the feelings come from? Where did those feelings come from? Are they something you can work through on your own or do you need to have a conversation with someone about them?

Episode 85: One Size Doesn't Fit All with Henry

Mandela is an incredible person. She's a river guide, surfer, musician, storyteller, housesitter, adventurer, explorer, and absolute delight. Maybe the most interesting person I know. I asked her to talk with me about bad sex ed because when I was teaching and she was my student, Mandela was the only person I remember correcting something I'd taught to make my sex ed better and I think that is so cool. Khoikhoi, by the way is the preferred name of the non-Bantu indigenous nomadic pastoralists of South Africa, I referred to as Hottentot. 
Here's a link to Mandela's amazing podcast: https://www.traillesstraveled.net/

MC Jenni works with young people professionally but she's great with humans of all ages. As someone who supported me when I became a mother of teens myself, I was curious what she thought about talking to young people about sexuality.
