  • You Could Be Having Better Sex feat. Dr. Nicole McNichols

    You Could Be Having Better Sex feat. Dr. Nicole McNichols
    Mar 23 2026
    Consider this episode Better Sex 101. We are joined by Dr. Nicole McNichols, hailed America’s #1 sex professor, for an in-depth discussion about how to level up your pleasure, starting with yourself and understanding the hierarchy of sexual needs. We talk about libido fluctuating over time and the factors that affect it, what sexual mindfulness is and how to practice it, how to work through body image issues, and the small but simple life hacks for better sex. Then we discuss sex in long-term relationships – why planning intimacy is hot and leads to higher sexual satisfaction, how to keep falling in love with your partner, the different types of intimacy, why "distance makes the heart grow fonder” is a myth, and if couples can get freakier later in life. We then dive into the dynamics of casual sex (why it’s not for everyone and how to know if it’s for you) and Gen Z (why they’re having less sex but may be more intentional about it, porn problems, and more). Before Nicole joins us, we catch up on Rayna’s bodysuit malfunction, Ashley’s elite concert experience, and we have another gift opening on air. Enjoy!

  • How to Have the Best Honeymoon (and Poop in Peace)

    How to Have the Best Honeymoon (and Poop in Peace)
    Mar 16 2026
    Ashley’s current husband is stepping in to guest host this week and we’re recapping the honeymoon in Singapore, from the highlights, (the few) lowlights, and even a run-in with the law. Then we answer some burning questions about traveling with a partner including pooping while sharing a hotel room, packing for your partner (cringe or not?), what the man responsibilities on the trip should be, and how the type of trip impacts the amount of sex you have. Lastly we read and break down some hilarious honeymoon stories ranging from butt stuff (not the sexy kind) to losing rings to ferry fails. Enjoy!

  • How to Investigate, Detect Lies, and Catch a Catfish with the Dating Detectives

    How to Investigate, Detect Lies, and Catch a Catfish with the Dating Detectives
    Mar 9 2026
    We all know women are the FBI when it comes to dating, and we are diving in deep with the hosts of The Dating Detectives podcast – private investigator Mackenzie Fultz and comedian Hanna Anderson. We discuss how to catch liars, cheaters, catfishes, and DOGfishes, how to find someone online, the number one red flag when newly dating someone, why you can never trust a photo, "Are we dating the same guy?" Facebook groups, and when to be suspicious if a guy tells you his ex was crazy or he's cheated in the past. We also discuss the day-to-day of being a PI and how to become one (for Ashley), and we break down two unsolved dating mysteries – one wild listener submission and one mind-boggling experience a male friend of ours had. Before our guests join us, we're talking about cheap guys, farting in front of your partner, and a dining experience we keep having that would only happen in LA. Enjoy!

  • I Love Men (and That's the Problem) with Liz Plank

    I Love Men (and That's the Problem) with Liz Plank
    Mar 2 2026

    We are thrilled to have journalist/author/podcaster Liz Plank join us to discuss the state of men, dating, and the country. We talk about masculinity and feminism, and the illuminating research about what type of society benefits both genders the most. We dive into dating and mating – which careers are the best and worst to date (ie. actors vs. athletes), what to do when you know your "type" is wrong for you, why women should be pickier when selecting a partner, and the decision of having kids. Lastly, we talk about the state of the world and Liz's impactful advice for coping in these unprecedented times, and end answering some boy problems from our listeners ranging from "the sex is good but he's boring" to "I don't want to change my last name." Before Liz joins us, we dive into an email from a listener who doesn't know if she should confront her best friend about her relationship, and we debate the sentiment "Drunk words are sober thoughts." Enjoy!

    Follow Liz on Instagram @feministabulous and listen to her podcast Boy Problems.
