This one has it all: vampires, sensuality, Southern heat, and Michael B. Jordan at his steamiest. Ariel and Morgan break down two pivotal intimacy scenes, one tender, one terrifying, and unpack how Sinners turns eroticism into a matter of survival. We get into it all: Why this film proves that you don’t need nudity to make a scene scorchingHow Sinners uses race, power, and danger to reimagine vampire mythologyThe difference between lusty vs romantic intimacyAnd yes… what it really means to share spit with a vampire 🩸From vampire lore to S-curves to consent through the lens of bloodlust, this is an episode that’s equal parts academic, erotic, and absurdly fun.

    She Bites Back | Dissecting the Horror, Humor, and Anatomy of "Teeth"

    The bite heard ’round the world. In this episode, Ariel and Morgan take on one of the most infamous (and crazily campy) scenes in horror-comedy history: the gynecologist sequence from Teeth (2007). From questionable medical protocol to perfect camp choreography, they break down what works, what really doesn’t, and why this movie about vagina dentata still manages to make audiences clench 17 years later. They tackle it all: How Teeth flips the horror trope of sexual violence on its head (and bites back)Why good choreography and body awareness make this scene disturbingly effectiveThe line between tension, comedy, and terrorWhat intimacy coordination could’ve looked like for a scene this outrageousAnd yes—whether it technically counts as an intimacy scene (spoiler: it does)Somehow, amidst the severed fingers and social commentary, there’s genuine insight into consent, choreography, and why horror movies might secretly “get” intimacy better than most rom-coms!

    No Lies, Just Bodies | Is This "Lie with Me" Sex Scene Too Real To Be Fake?

    Get ready for one of our most asked—and most controversial—questions: Do actors ever actually have sex on camera? In this episode, we're diving deep into the blurred lines between filmmaking and pornography. Ariel surprises Morgan with a deep dive into the notoriously heated and hard-to-find 2005 film, Lie with Me, a movie that famously plays with this very question. We break down the difference between softcore, hardcore, and simulated sex scenes, and ask: does it have to be real to feel real? Can simulated sex be more artistic—or even more erotic—than the real thing? We tackle the big questions: What's the practical difference between a simulated sex scene and a pornographic one?How would an intimacy coordinator even approach a scene that calls for real sex?What does Lie with Me achieve by pushing the boundary, and at what cost?Where do we, as professionals, draw the line between artistic expression and exploitation?This is a must-listen for anyone curious about the raw, unvarnished mechanics of on-screen intimacy. Spoiler alert: the answers are far from black and white.
