    Casual Doesn't Have to Mean Careless with Billy Procida, Jr.

    It's my goal to get as many of my comet lovers (and anchor lovers!) on the show as possible, and Billy Procida, Jr., is the first! Huzzah! I have such a crush. Billy is a comedian, writer, and podcaster out of New York City. He's been producing weekly episodes of the Manwhore Podcast for 12 years now, and his Naked Comedy Show - which is exactly what it sounds like - sells out every month in Brooklyn and is now expanding to Philadelphia, Los Angeles, and Chicago. He's been featured in the New York Times and writes about sex, dating, and gender for Mashable. I like Billy because he sounds like straight bro comedians like Joe Rogan could sound like if they weren't so deeply misogynistic. In this episode, we discuss: Billy's post-breakup happy slut era! Yay!Why casual doesn't have to mean carelessHow to flirt with women without being weirdThe surprising secret to getting laid moreNon-monogamy, comet lovers, and relationship freedomWhy nonsexualized nudity is important for sex positivitySex parties, g******g etiquette, and consent-oriented communication that actually worksHow to be emotionally available without rushing into commitment SUPPORT BILLY: Billy's Website: www.manwhorepod.com Subscribe to the Manwhore Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-manwhore-podcast-sex-positive-conversations/id864068000 Billy on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/billyprocidajr/ Billy on Threads: https://www.threads.com/@billyprocidajr Naked Comedy Show NYC (June 25): https://www.eventbrite.com/e/1989846095236 Naked Comedy Show Chicago (July 10): https://www.eventbrite.com/e/1989444027641 Hear Me Overshare on the Manwhore Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/can-you-switch-from-polyamory-to-monogamy/id864068000?i=1000753133897 SUPPORT THE SHOW!

    This Is What God Is with Rae Halder

    Content warning: Mentions of sexual assault and child sexual abuse. We live within a system that allows sexual abuse of all kinds to flourish without much accountability, and because of that, a lot of us carry deep trauma around sex and intimacy. Rachel (Rae) Halder is one of those people, and she's also a certified trauma resolution and erotic embodiment coach with over a decade of experience helping others heal the same wounds she's been working to heal within herself. This episode deals with some heavy themes, buuuut we also talk about the Italian hippie who worshipped Rae like a sun goddess...so it's not all doom and gloom. Hehe! This is Happy Slut, after all! In this episode: Rae's journey from childhood sexual abuse survivor to trauma resolution and erotic embodiment coachRecovering a repressed memory years after the abuse occurredWhy our nervous systems dissociate, freeze, and fawn during sexHow unprocessed trauma gets stored in the bodyThe devastating gray area of consensual encounters that become traumatic experiencesWhy some people intellectually want sex while their bodies experience it as unsafeThe surprising ways trauma can masquerade as asexualityGrowing up Mennonite and questioning patriarchal ideas about God, gender, and sexualityStarting a groundbreaking blog about sexual violence before the #MeToo movementThe Italian hippie who accidentally sparked Rae's sexual awakeningGoddess worship, tantra, and discovering what truly safe erotic connection feels likeChronic illness, interstitial cystitis, and the connection between trauma and the bodyWhy agency, autonomy, and choice are essential ingredients for healingThe difference between wanting sex and feeling safe enough to receive pleasureHow survivors can reclaim their sexuality without forcing themselves past their body's limitsWhat "erotic safety" actually meansWhy healing often happens more slowly—and more gently—than we want it to FOLLOW RAE HALDER: Website: https://www.raehalder.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rachel.rae.halder Real Sex Substack: https://realsex.substack.com/ FOLLOW SAMIA & HAPPY SLUT: Samia's Personal Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/samia.mounts/ Happy Slut on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/happyslutcast/ Happy Slut on TikTok: https://tiktok.com/@happyslutcast SUPPORT THE SHOW: Become a paying Substack subscriber: https://samiamounts.substack.com Venmo Samia: @Samia-Mounts / https://account.venmo.com/u/Samia-Mounts CashApp Samia: $SamiaMounts / https://cash.app/$SamiaMounts Email me your thoughts or pitches at happyslutcast@gmail.com.

    Inside the World of a Professional Orgy Organizer with Ali Bravo

    Ali Bravo is a professional orgy organizer, a sex positive educator, a kinky leather artist, and a powerhouse force for destigmatizing kink, pleasure, and desire. When I met her in person a couple of weeks ago at Dixie De La Tour's Birthday Forgy (Friend Orgy), she was freshly resourced from her pre-party kink scene with one of her partners, a man who goes by the moniker Pleasure Wizard (and apparently REALLY lives up to that name!), and she was leading a group of 75 excited attendees through a consent and STI disclosure demo, capping it off with a proud announcement of her own positive herpes status. WHAT. A. BOSS. In this episode: What it actually takes to organize a 75-person orgyWhy Ali uses kinky “pre-care” scenes as a leadership tool before big eventsGrowing up fat, horny, and desperate for validationThe heartbreaking origins of Ali’s pleasure journeyDiscovering orgasm, restraint, and kink later in lifeWhy so many women struggle to stay connected to their bodies during sexHow patriarchy disconnects us from pleasureSTI disclosure, herpes stigma, and why “all the hotties have herpes”The hilariously absurd logistics of glory holes, Grope-a-Clown boxes, p***y pageants and cockstume contestsWhy whimsy, play, and crafts belong at sex partiesAli’s philosophy on polyamory, metamours, and “aurora partnerships”The difference between “platonic erotic” and “erotic platonic” relationshipsWhy getting railed is, apparently, a public health necessityBuilding chosen family through kink and sex-positive communityWhy everything you desire might actually be on the other side of fear READ ALI's COMPREHENSIVE STI DISCLOSURE ARTICLE: https://momotaroapotheca.com/blogs/vaginal-wellness/talking-about-stis-how-to-have-clear-amp-caring-conversations-about-sexual-health?srsltid=AfmBOopWdLDADnQIP53Y-kY3VIm3_wZuU3z4BICMcfa2c6Fqp6lVOMAE FOLLOW ALI BRAVO: Ali's Personal Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/raptorbravo/ Ali's Leather Working Instragram: https://www.instagram.com/raptrix/ FOLLOW SAMIA & HAPPY SLUT: Samia's Personal Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/samia.mounts/ Happy Slut on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/happyslutcast/ Happy Slut on TikTok: https://tiktok.com/@happyslutcast SUPPORT THE SHOW: Become a paying Substack subscriber: https://samiamounts.substack.com Venmo Samia: @Samia-Mounts / https://account.venmo.com/u/Samia-Mounts CashApp Samia: $SamiaMounts / https://cash.app/$SamiaMounts Email me your thoughts or pitches at happyslutcast@gmail.com.

    What If Queerness Was Infinite? with James Patrick Nelson

    What if queerness was infinite, instead of limited by the strict rules and norms of our patriarchal world? What if we abandoned the binary of tops and bottoms, gays and straights, women and men, and embraced the idea--nay, the reality!--that all of us are fluid, ever-changing beings with deep wellsprings of desire and turn-on we would never know about if we didn't get curious and explore? I talk about all this and more with my guest this week, James Patrick Nelson, or as I call him, Jamie. In this episode: Why Jamie thinks the world would be better if more straight men got f****d in the assThe surprising emotional power of being sexually receptiveJamie’s chaotic, joyful anal debut story (yes, it involved a threesome)Why “top” and “bottom” are wildly insufficient ways to describe human desireThe queer loneliness of trying to fit into tiny little boxesHow the pandemic changed Jamie’s understanding of intimacy, beauty, and self-worthWhy joyful, consensual anal sex is still almost absent from mainstream mediaThe difference between humiliation and vulnerability—and why patriarchy confuses the twoJamie’s very horny origin story for wanting a tattooA sexy game for exes that honestly might fix modern datingWhy the best sex is often about feeling truly seen and worshippedThe making of Jamie’s sensual new indie film Something to Surprise MeHow queer people are reclaiming sexuality from shame, binaries, and bad storytellingAss worship, emotional intimacy, and the radical act of yielding with joy SUPPORT SOMETHING TO SURPRISE ME ON SEED & SPARK: https://seedandspark.com/fund/something-to-surprise-me?token=4de1630be7d5a70c7cd806c60339bcf9a171bb0ac77ec1d99238fc1dbd4bc803#story WATCH FOR YEARS TO COME: https://www.youtube.com/watch?si=-Tu7iceWO2px5pPU&v=jMrHzo03fxE&feature=youtu.be ALL THINGS JAMIE: https://www.james-patrick-nelson.com/ SUPPORT THE SHOW, CUTIE PATOOT!

    Why Am I So Weird with Women?

    In this episode, I ask myself why, oh whyyy, am I so weird with women? I love them, I've known I'm attracted to them both sexually and romantically since I was a kid, and yet I've only managed to have one relationship with a woman that only lasted six weeks in college and otherwise have been a massive failure in the lady-dating department. And I'm not alone. I've heard lots of bisexual girlies talking about how they don't even feel like they can claim the bisexual label because they almost exclusively date and sleep with men. Most of the bi women I know feel they aren't "bi enough." In this episode: I’ve wanted women my whole life—and stayed silentOne intense, six-week relationship that blew me open…and shut me downWhy men feel “easier” (and what that says about me)The part I hate admitting: I’m the one getting in my own wayIs this a me problem…or a bi girl problem?And the twist I did NOT see coming Read the original essay on my Substack: https://samiamounts.substack.com/p/why-am-i-so-weird-with-women Screen For Years to Come: https://james-patrick-nelson.com/for-years-to-come SUPPORT THE SHOW, CUTIE PATOOT!

    Happily Married? Check. Kink With Friends? Also Check.

    Fox is a happily married parent with a normal work and home life...and a spicy social life with his kinky friends. Ooh la la! In this audio-only episode with Happy Slut's very first anonymous guest, we get into what happens when a self-described “regular Joe” follows his curiosity into the world of kink play and wildly honest connection—and finds out it sets him free. We talk about: The super-slow, podcast-fueled awakening that led him into kinkHow rope nights and kink clubs can foster communityThe surprisingly complex question: what even counts as sex?How he navigated opening things up with his wife (without blowing up his marriage)Why “you don’t have to have sex” was the gateway that made everything possibleThe ethics of play: communication, consent, and not being an absolute menaceHaving multiple play partners…and realizing you can actually do something about your crushesThe joy of helping people live out fantasies they never thought they’d get to experienceWhy exploration, curiosity, and emotional safety matter way more than labels This one is funny, thoughtful, unexpectedly wholesome, and just the right amount of chaotic. Basically: what if you could look like a regular person on the outside…and still be out here living your weird little dream life? Oh wait...that's you? Yeah, baby pinecone, that's ALL of us.
