Hi! We're Sex Ed and Chill, a podcast for chill conversations about sex and sex education in film and TV. Our first season was focussed on recap-heavy discussions of Sex Education on Netflix, but we've updated our format to be a bit shorter and have a few different sections. We still love to do a recap, but we (try to) stay focussed on the big and notable parts of whatever we're watching. Based on whatever we've watched, we then do a bit of a deeper dive into a topic in sex and/or sex education. Then we wrap it up with a bit of movie-talk, and some trivia. Listen in and let us know what you think! Have something to say that you think we missed? Send an audio or video recording through to sexedandchillpod@gmail.com and we'll put you in to the next episode!

This episode was supposed to be the aftermath of The Party, but it's really a mashup of The Breakfast Club and Mean Girls (and we love it!). Join us as we discuss Season 2 Episode 7 of Sex Education and explore the topic of emergency contraceptives. Content warning for this episode: this episode contains discussions of sex, sexuality, sex education, abortion, contraceptives, self-harm, and sexual assault. This episode's topic talk on Emergency Contraceptives is a bit shorter than normal because Matt didn't do his best work on the research for the episode (he's sorry!) and so we had to cut part of the conversation because it perpetuated one of the myths that surrounds EC: that regular use is in some way worse or more harmful than 'normal' birth control. Studies seem to show that this isn't the case, and this myth is one of the main reasons for lower uptake of emergency contraceptives. The main drawback to using them regularly is that they aren't as effective as other contraceptives (like regular birth control medication or condoms), so using it regularly leads to a higher risk of unwanted pregnancy (although the difference is small). So while ECs are not recommended for regular use for reasons of preventing unwanted pregnancy, it's not because they're bad for you. Thanks Mabel for calling it out while we were recording!
