Everybody Wants to Love You

This week we take a look at porn. Everyone watches it, more and more of us even make it, but how should we feel about porn? Is porn a degrading poison that pushes us towards dehumanisation and deviance, or a harmless and even necessary catharsis? We discuss our own history watching porn, how it changed as first the web and then the 'tube sites' made access to porn ubiquitous.  Gareth talks about his time writing for Ireland's only porn magazine 'Blue Ireland'.  We take a look at the laws and moral panics surrounding porn. From revenge porn to the 'Traffickinghub' campaign organised by far right anti-gay, anti-abortion, group Exodus Cry, to Ireland's Turn off the Red Light Campaign organised by Ruhama, a charity run by two of the sisterhoods that ran the Magdalene Laundries.

G.G.G.: Good, giving and game. The acronym coined by sex columnist Dan Savage has taken the world by storm. But what does it mean to be GGG? How can we fairly compromise in relationships, ask for what we want without pressuring our partners, and 'get good' in the bedroom. All this and more as we lift the lid on GGG.

We're joined once again by Australia's top sex tourist Petunia. It's been a wild European ride for this former stripper, who regales us with tales of private kink parties, visits to Berlin's infamous KitKat club, MMF threeways and dating British pensioners. It's a corker!

We discuss the dark art of seduction. Is 'pickup' a sinister form of manipulation or just a way for lonely lads to learn to be more social? What do these slippery sleezeballs get up to anyway? How can you spot one? What's the theory behind this stuff? We both reveal our experiences with the world of The Pickup Artist.

Gareth is the token straight once again, as Nicole is joined by Lilly, another seasoned bisexual, as they trade stories, compare their attraction towards men and women. Lilly tells us all about her awakening as a gay girl and Nicole reveals her misdeeds at Berlin Pride.

We take a long hard look at cheating. What counts as cheating? Is it always wrong? Why do people cheat? We tell our own stories of cheating and being cheated on, and Gareth owns up to some truly heinous behaviour. Find us on: Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Feedburner Meet us on: Instagram, Discord

Dildos, vibrators, cock rings, pocket pussies, do you use them, do you like them? is there such a thing as too big or too good? What have we tried? Why do women use them more than men? Is the shame around sex toys irrational? And how do they affect our bodies. We also chat about being separated by covid, and Nicole reads another clip from her erotic fiction!

We chat with special guest Ronan about the role drugs have in our sex life – endogenous hormones, prescription drugs, and of course the wicked world of narcotics. How can they alter our experience of love and sex? What are the risks of abuse? Does the pill change who girls are attracted to? Does taking testosterone turn men into walking rage boners? Are there healthy ways to increase your libido with HRT? How kink can help keep the chemical kick alive. Are there drugs you can take to improve your relationships and should you even try? Can love itself be a chemical addiction? All this and more. Find us on: Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Feedburner Meet us on: Instagram, Discord
