  • Guests talk too long

    I’ve been listening for years. But lately the guests ( on the Magnum) talk way too much. I like to hear the callers, not comedians or writers yapping about boring topics. It’s like half the show sometimes. I skip through the quirky guests and his political rants at top of show.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Savage Lovecast Episode 1024
Q: What should a caller do when their partner needs a sex toy to reach orgasm, and the caller feels inadequate?
Dan suggests embracing the toy as a tool that can enhance intimacy, encourages integrating the toy into foreplay from the start, and emphasizes mutual satisfaction and communication to maintain connection and reduce insecurity.
After Action Report #35
Q: Who has the key to your chastity device, and are you able to unlock yourself?
Maxon shares that they are self-locked and eventually took back their keys to be their own key holder, removing the need for a separate key holder and enabling independence in their practices.
After Action Report #35
Q: How many balls did you have in you at one time?
Maxon explains numbers typically ranged from three to five balls at a time, with tops using gloves and changing gloves between bottoms to reduce risk, and notes the careful tracking to avoid losing any balls.
After Action Report #35
Q: What is the new thing that you did, that you wanted to share with my listeners?
Maxon details participating as a fisting bottom at SF Rubber Weekend's Fisting Bingo, explaining the setup with multiple tops and bottoms, the mechanics of inserting and removing balls, and the emphasis on safety, consent, and performance rather than erotica; they describe the mix of exhibitionism, play, and physical sensation, and how the event felt both hot and performative.
Savage Love Episode 1025
Q: Is it safe six, seven days post surgery to have my girlfriend go down on me without me ejaculating?
Don't do sexual activity; the doctor said no sexual activity during healing. Avoid arousal to prevent complications; wait for all-clear from the doctor before resuming any sexual activity.
