    SUBS: THAT Sex Scene in Off Campus. Oh.

    Ice hockey romance is having a moment right now. And you don’t even have to know anything about hockey to get in on it. In this exclusive subscriber episode, Mia Freedman, Clare Stephens and Em Vernem are unpacking the new college series, Off Campus that women of all ages can’t stop watching. It’s a little bit sexy. It’s a little bit Heated Rivalry. It’s very 2003 rom-com nostalgia and yes, the plot makes absolutely zero sense. SUBSCRIBE to Mamamia and get every single episode of Mamamia Out Loud & access to every story on Mamamia plus our exercise app, MOVE. So, is the real reason women are frothing over this show actually the emotional intelligence and communication skills of the hot jocks?  And, can something be horny and wholesome at the same time?
