In the news, Susie says the new Federal abstinence education policy is worth more than just an eye roll.

(Episode 246, April 21, 2006).

Susie hears a juicy sex dispatch from a listener in North Dakota regarding a sex columnist recenty fired from the local student paper.

The gadget, which gets wired to the spine, was developed for helping people with chronic pain, but some patients experienced intense sexual stimulation while they were hooked up. Wow, what a way to get rid of all those horrible aches and pains!

Happy New Year! Susie wants you to enjoy a show from 2011 today, all about joysticks for Jacks and Jills. There is a perception that gamers are all young men who spend their waking hours in their basements, secluded from the real world. But surprise, many gamers are regular people, including plenty of female devotees.

Susie is away today, but here's a great show from 2015 that starts with a light-hearted look at "vagina steaming". What?

Ever wonder what the top 10 global Internet sex search words are? Susie looks at a very thorough list that shows which porn terms are the most popular.

Susie spends the first part of today's show looking at a controversial idea that could help some very lonely people get relief. If prostitution were legal, could we avoid rampages like the recent Isla Vista massacre?

Today, Susie looks at one woman's plight: her beau asked for a facial cum shot on their first date. Bold move, say some. But what about the idea of getting to know each other with "regular" sex before getting too kinky? This all comes from an article in GQ magazine.
