Mormon Fever!
Episode 1042
Show notes
A bisexual woman has started dating a lady for the first time. She doesn't feel much sexual spark. Is it because of the baggy, unflattering clothes her girlfriend wears?
Is it ever appropriate to ask your doctor out? Your nurse? A woman wrings her hands over the ethics of leaving a thank-you note with her phone number on it for Max, the hot radiologist.
On the Magnum, it's everybody's favorite gay former Mormon humor writer, Eli McCann! His new novel "Stitched" is on the NYT bestsellers list. And because there's Mormonism in the air, we got two calls from listeners about the Latter Day Saints. One is from a woman in her late 20s, newly divorced and free from the church. She wants to know how to embrace her sexuality. And another is from a mother whose daughter has Mormon friends, and they are trying to woo her into the hive. The mother is horrified. Should she be?
A non-binary AFAB person has no desire to try to pass as a man. But they like pretending they have a small dick, and then have their boyfriend degrade and insult them.They both like it when he uses transphobic slurs as part of their dirty talk and role play. Cool?

Kinksters: Born or Built?
Episode 1040
Show notes
A divorced father of adult children understood himself to be bisexual later in life. He digs men in an aromantic, casual sex kind of way. Is he obligated to tell his family? Does his connections with men fall under private sex life or public identity?
A woman went to a sex party and met a hot female bouncer who throws out misbehaving guests. The caller wants to ask her to be her dom. Should she? How?
On the Magnum, Dan and sex researcher Niki Davis-Fainbloom do a deep dive on fetishes. What's the difference between kinks and fetishes? What causes people to get into them- is it cultural or biological? Is the destigmatization of kink making it less hot? Listen in.
And, a straight man matched with the woman who works at his local dry cleaners. He thinks she might be trouble- texting him from the bar at 1:30, maybe driving drunk. Should he avoid her or get a little hanky-panky from a hot, messy lady?
Call us, text us, don't be afraid.

Gerbiling
Episode 1038
Show notes
We begin the show...drunkenly. A lit lady enjoys the sensation of touching ears. Room temperature, or slightly chilled. Not too cold. But "ear porn?" Is that a thing?
A lucky fella won a three-month free entry to his local bathhouse. Whatever should he do when he's in there?
Our guest this week is Allen Sulkin, creator of the new podcast "Gerbil." He and Dan analyze the persistence of the insane sex myth that you've probably heard about. Do people still believe it? They go into the dark motivations that allowed such a preposterous rumor to live on and on. Gerbil is out now, and you should drop everything to listen to it.
And, should a woman demand her fiancé continue the painful, expensive tattoo removal from a previous marriage?
People. Make good choices.

Grapefruiting
Episode 1037
Show notes
Grapefruiting! It's a new sex act involving fruit! Can *any* word be verbed? Apparently!
A woman wonders how anyone can successfully fake an orgasm, when the physical contractions should be noticeably felt.
On the Magnum, Dan brings on a guest to definitively answer the question you all have: How long must you wait to masturbate after you've had a heart attack? Dr. Eugene Fan is a cardiologist with nothing but good news for you horndogs. As long as your heart is beating, you can beat off. He and Dan discuss a couple of heart health issues with the charming and reassuring Dr. Fan.
And, is piss an acquired taste? Because this woman just doesn't like it.

The Jockstrap Code
Episode 1036
Show notes
Bummer! A man had just met with a male-female couple who wanted him to take part in a kinky three-way. But when he confessed that he sometimes has trouble coming, they cancelled. Can he train himself to blow a load? Need he?
Speaking of loads, a woman credits her beautiful, supple skin to the facial treatments her husband obligingly administers. Can this be true? Any dermatologists care to weigh in?
On the Magnum, Dan chats with filmmaker, actor and fetish content creator Julian Shaw. He wrote and directed the thriller Use Me, co-directs the documentary Acting Hard, and is the subject of Cam Boy, a documentary currently in production. He was the face of Australia's gay marriage fight, and had to "come out'" as straight. He and Dan cover a lot of ground in this convo about foot fetishes, the benefits and perils of sex work, the ethics of dating guys on the DL, and how to avoid stomach aches.
Finally, a gay man in Italy asks if wearing a jockstrap tells the world that he is a bottom.

"His Chatter is Constant."
Episode 1035
Show notes
A man has been together with his boyfriend for 10 years. The caller works long hard hours and values peace and quiet when he comes home. But his boyfriend works from home all day and pounces on his husband, wanting to chat and interact. Dan was in a similar situation, but don't tell Dan's husband how he dealt with it.
A divorced woman with children has been dating a man. Both are in open relationships, and he wears a wedding ring. Her kids don't yet know about ethical non-monogamy and her family disapproves, making this year's Rosh Hashanah dinner extra spicy.
Our guest is the intrepid comedian Zach Noe Towers who sailed away on the gay ship that got turned away by homophobic country after homophobic country. He and Dan go Deep Gay on the scent of man, and whether uncircumcised dicks slip in easier. A little is on the Micro, and the uncut version is on the Magnum.
And, a 35 year-old gay man connected with a guy via dating app, who seemed pretty darn cool. But when he learned the man was in his 60s, he politely rejected him. The guy accused our caller of being ageist. Is he?

Episode 1034
Show notes
Any military lawyers in the house? A gay man and his boyfriend, both serving active duty, want to open their relationship. But infidelity is forbidden by military law. How risky would this be?
Now that chastity play its all the rage, should we assume that a key necklace means something deeply kinky? And if so, should we knowingly wink when we see one?
Sex/science nerds rejoice! Our Magnum guest this week is Distinguished Research Professor Dr. Lixing Sun, who wrote On the Origin of Sex. Dan and Dr. Sun discuss the deep biological underpinnings of sex: when and why did pleasure emerge in reproduction? Why hasn't homosexuality been selected against? And why don't we just reproduce like sponges?
And, a woman no longer drinks, but her boyfriend still does. When he comes home reeking of beer and cigarettes, she feels repulsed by him. How can she explain that drinking a pitcher and getting laid that night are now mutually exclusive events?
