  1. The Research Says: Your Mates Are Wanking More Than You Think

    Season 5, Episode 5

    Show notes

    I dove deep on this research. It was interesting to start to get a grip on why so many guys don't admit to masturbating as much as they do, and why this is one of the factors holding us back from talking about it.

    The links to the research are below.

  8. Wynward H Oliver, Author of HomoWork

    Season 4, Episode 22

    Show notes

    Interviews are back on the slate for 2024 and my first subject is Wynward H Oliver author of HomoWork. I found Wynward and his book through his Twitter/X account and the book grabbed me straight away as an open and honest approach to the memoir of a man self-described as a compulsive bator.

    We talk about everything from poppers to labels, as well as how he went about writing such a funny and engaging story recounting his life.

  14. Talking With Your Mates

    Season 4, Episode 12

    Show notes

    A topic that comes up a lot when I chat to bators, particularly those newer to accepting their batehood is the idea of being able to talk with your mates about it, outside the bate mates that you may already have. In this episode I share some tips and insight into how I've built up some mates to chat with.
