    Brian and Judson hookup with Jimin Moon, repeat with Will Wikle, and talk chosen family, mentorship in the gay community, discovering polyamory, and loving outside of labels

    Judson enjoys a hookup that goes past the typical twenty minutes and returns to his favorite gay event at his local bathhouse. Brian spends an evening with the Real Housewives of Salt Lake City and tries to entice Judson to check out the show. The Hookup of the Week is a twofer from a Daddy who enjoys public sex. The two are then joined by rising Broadway star Jimin Moon, and returning guest Will Wikle, known first for his iconic time spent as a houseguest on Big Brother 5 in 2004, and now as a psychiatric nurse practitioner with his own practice, Peace Park Psychiatry. Jimin talks about performing the leading role of Joe Gillis in the recent Broadway production of Sunset Blvd., the secrets of cruising from the stage, the shift his life has taken since his recent 25th birthday, and the New Year’s resolution that revolutionized his sex life.

To close, Jimin and Will help Brian and Judson respond to not one, but two Go Ask Your Dad questions: one from a listener in an open marriage who finds the amount of sex his husband needs outside the marriage disconcerting, and a second from a listener debating whether or not he should accept the invitation from a couple 15 years his senior to join them in a throuple.

    Brian and Judson hookup with Dr. Evan Goldstein and talk all about butts–from gaining confidence as a bottom to protecting the prostate to anal botox, to the dos and don’ts of douching

    Judson is riding high from a health rebound and a proud week at work. Brian’s daughters surprise him by saying and doing a number of things that speak both to their maturity and to their being raised by gay dads. The Hookup of the Week comes from a listener at the start of opening his marriage, who shares a fun night out with his husband and others during their anniversary trip to Puerto Vallarta. Brian and Judson are then joined by the leading anal health expert in the United States, Dr. Evan Goldstein. Dr Goldstein is the founder of Future Method, makers of science-backed sex toys and other anal sex products; he’s the author of Butt Seriously: The Definitive Guide to Anal Health, Pleasure, and Everything In Between; and he’s one of the few surgeons in the world whose practice, Bespoke Surgical in New York City, is dedicated to treating and restoring the human butt.

He also shares his thoughts on aging, what it’s like being a dad to two teenage boys, and talking with kids about sex. To close, Dr. Goldstein helps Brian and Judson respond to a Go Ask Your Dad question submitted by a listener who isn’t able to ejaculate after a medical procedure and wants help finding ways to communicate that to his sexual partners without making it awkward.

    Brian and Judson hookup with Dr. Demetre Daskalakis and talk his fiery resignation from the CDC, his return to the front lines in NYC, the meaning of his pentagram tattoo, his thoughts on questions from our listeners, and much more

    It is a momentous occasion when Judson wears an entirely black outfit.

Having also served as the CDC’s Director of HIV Prevention, the White House’s Deputy Coordinator of the National Monkeypox Response in 2022-2023, and the Deputy Commissioner of NYC’s Department of Health, Dr. Daskalakis brings an incredible wealth of knowledge, experience, stories and sexy Daddy energy to the Dads and Daddies studio. Dr. Demetre speaks with Brian and Judson about his resignation from the CDC this summer and the hostile takeover of the organization by RFK Jr., being dubbed “Dr. Daddy” by legendary nightlife impresario Susanne Bartsch, his days on the front lines testing for HIV in NYC’s bathhouses and sex clubs, the origin and evolution of his 14-year relationship with his husband Michael, their imminent move back to New York, the meaning behind his tattoos, the love of Madonna concerts he shares with Brian, and his intolerance of bullies instilled by his father that has made him the fighter he is today. He then joins Brian and Judson for a mini Go Ask Your Dad Extravaganza, tackling three listener-submitted questions about communicating when one tests positive for an STI, conquering a debilitating fear of HIV, and handling the discovery of an open sore during an anonymous sex encounter.

    Brian and Judson hookup with James Nguyen and AC Gottlieb and talk sex between friends, couples therapy, racism in the queer community and designing for Chappell Roan

    Brian celebrates his first successful afternoon on the apps in six weeks, applying a lesson from a recent episode and proving a point he's made in others. Judson shares recommendations for Anthony Amiewalan’s novel Eddie & Alan, Michael Finkel’s biography of Stéphane Breitwieser, The Art Thief, Kaveh Akbar’s novel, Martyr!, and Nicholas Colia’s film, Griffin in Summer. Both hosts are tickled by the Hookup of the Week, which describes a listener's decision to throw himself a birthday party to reclaim the sexual awakening that homophobia denied him as a teenager. Then, Brian and Judson are joined by partners in life and work, James Nguyen and AC Gottlieb, costume designers currently represented on stage by Chappell Roan in her Visions of Damsels and Other Dangerous Things tour and by Messy White Gays off-Broadway. James and AC chat with the hosts about the origin of their relationship and their evolution to openness, making and maintaining queer friendships–including navigating boundaries around sex with friends, entering into couples therapy, and their past dalliances with throuple-dom. The pair also discuss finding independence within a codependent relationship, how much we let dating apps inform our feelings about ourselves, the pursuit of their professional dreams, and how they came to design for Chappell Roan. Finally, James and AC help Brian and Judson respond to a Go Ask Your Dad question submitted by a listener who has concerns about hosting hookups at home.

Brian prepares for a sex party by listening back to his own advice on a previous episode and discovers he may, in fact, be vers. After listening to the Hookup of the Week, the two wax nostalgic for their younger years, hooking up in bars. ​They are then joined by comedian, writer, and actor Jay Jurden, whose debut television special, “Yes, Ma’am,” is now streaming on Hulu. Jay discusses the journey to getting “Yes, Ma’am” on screen, why it was important for the special to be so sex-positive, the necessity of stand-up for marginalized audiences, the new hour he is taking on his “Nothing Special" tour, his 14-year relationship with his now husband, identifying as bisexual, his former career as a personal trainer, his possible future on Broadway, and his deep, queer connection to Marvel’s X-Men. ​To cap off the episode, Jay helps Brian and Judson respond to a Go Ask Your Dad question from a listener who is hurt after his partner declines his request for sex, only to go and have a repeat hookup with someone else.
