  • The bible of sex education!!

    I ran a sexual health org at my college and did a lot of research on my own to make sure I was helping to educate people properly and start a good conversation. This podcast was and still is my holy grail! I’m from an abstinence only state so having this information relayed in such a fun and relatable format is so relaxing and helps me break through the societal stigma I still hold on to parts of. bravo!!

  • Wonderful and informative podcast!

    This is a fantastic podcast! Put a lot of focus on the disability community relation to sex and dating.

    Suggested topics for future shows:

    Dating and sexuality from this perspective of someone who is Low Vision, blind, deafblind, deaf-hard of hearing.

    And maybe an episode on Lingerie.

    Love the podcast, especially the Rom-Com Vom episodes. It would be amazing to hear an ep on Boomerang with Eddie Murphy and Halle Berry

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Pleasure as Resistance with Ericka Hart
Q: Where did the title 'Nasty Work' come from?
The title arose from a collaboration with her partner and reflects reclaiming the word 'nasty' as a celebration of pleasure while acknowledging that the work of changing oppressive systems is itself 'nasty' or challenging.
Pleasure as Resistance with Ericka Hart
Q: What is one big takeaway Hart hopes readers take from her work?
Hart emphasizes that sex education must be treated as a political, societal issue, not an apolitical topic, linking bodily autonomy to broader systems of oppression and insisting that consent and pleasure be central in everyday life.
Give Mindblowing Blowjobs with Shameless Sex Hosts Amy Baldwin and April Lampert (Re-Release)
Q: Is deep throating necessary for a pleasurable experience?
No; the conversation emphasizes that most nerve endings are in the head of the penis, and you can achieve great pleasure with the head, lips, tongue, and hands without needing to deep throat.
Give Mindblowing Blowjobs with Shameless Sex Hosts Amy Baldwin and April Lampert (Re-Release)
Q: What are some immediate tips to give a better blowjob right now?
Focus on your partner's responses, use lubrication, vary speed and pressure, keep the jaw relaxed, and use your hands in tandem with your mouth to stimulate the head and balls while maintaining enthusiastic communication.
BEST OF: BDSM
Q: What's the worst advice you've heard in BDSM and why do you disagree with it?
The notion that a 'real sub' doesn't have limits or needs safe words is false; true subbing is about clear boundaries, safety, and respecting limits, not about rigid dogma.
