    Handjob Nap Incidents, Anal Ultimatums, Bad Dragons, Teenage Masturbation Tactics

    Keith and Mike take a measured approach to their latest batch of one-star reviews, which range from the standard accusations of misogyny to the more concerning claim that their voices induce sleep. Rather than engage in self-reflection, they consider the possibility of pivoting to the lucrative world of sleep podcasts. Keith, ever the economist, points out that their detractors failed to take advantage of the show’s longstanding policy of paying for negative feedback. This oversight only serves to reinforce his belief that their harshest critics may not be operating at peak intellectual capacity. The discussion then turns to relationships, where a listener writes in with an ultimatum that can only be described as highly specific. Her husband, citing irreconcilable differences, has informed her that unless she consents to anal sex twice a week, their marriage cannot continue. Mike, applying his usual analytical rigor, wonders whether the man would maintain his conviction if the arrangement were reversed. Keith, perhaps naively, suggests a marriage counselor might provide clarity, though both agree that “twice-weekly anal” is unlikely to be a common sticking point in the profession. In a seamless transition from strained marriages to teenage resourcefulness, Keith recounts the elaborate measures he once took to ensure privacy while masturbating as a teenager. What begins as a simple precautionary tale quickly spirals into an engineering case study, complete with fleece blankets, strategic clothing placement, and an emergency contingency plan for sudden parental intrusions. Mike, unimpressed, points out the sheer number of failure points in Keith’s system, ultimately concluding that this level of problem-solving may explain both Keith’s SAT scores and his current personality. The episode concludes with an unexpected foray into the world of fantasy-themed sex toys. Mike has recently become aware of the *Bad Dragon* product line and, against his better judgment, feels compelled to investigate its possible connection to a popular series of romance novels featuring dragons. Keith, whose tolerance for nonsense has already been tested, takes one look at the website before declaring his immediate and permanent exit from the topic. The discussion, much like the episode itself, is both unhelpful and oddly compelling. Twitter: @ymmvpod Facebook: ymmvpod Email: ymmvpod@gmail.com

    Soaking and Cereal, Clapping in the Shower, AI Porn Futures, Mormon Sex Rules, Ethical Quandaries

    A discussion leads to an extended examination of an unusual claim: that a Mormon husband once ate cereal out of his wife’s vagina. The logistics are considered, including spoon placement, sugar residue, and potential medical consequences. This transitions into a broader conversation about Mormon attitudes toward sex, particularly the practice of “soaking” and its representation in pornography. The effectiveness of soaking as a loophole is debated, along with the likelihood that it leads to more conventional sexual activity. Mormon missionary rules against masturbation come up next, specifically the requirement for male missionaries to clap at intervals while showering. The practical difficulties of this rule are analyzed, as is the possibility of working around it with various contraptions. The conversation expands to whether deeply ingrained religious prohibitions affect sexual preferences later in life. There is also some speculation about whether female missionaries, lacking explicit restrictions, may have unknowingly engaged in activities they were never taught were possible. The latter half of the episode focuses on pornography, both in its current form and its likely evolution with AI-generated content. The challenges of search, categorization, and personal preference in porn consumption are examined, as well as the potential for machine learning to optimize content for individual users. A comparison is made to TikTok’s algorithmic recommendations, with questions about whether porn has too many niche preferences to be effectively automated in the same way. Ethical and legal concerns surrounding AI-generated pornography, including the possibility of synthetic depictions of illegal content, are also discussed. The episode closes with a conversation about the broader social and psychological impact of pornography. Arguments are considered regarding whether easy access to porn affects relationships, male sexual behavior, and cultural expectations. A brief comparison is made between access to pornography and bodily autonomy debates, though the analogy is left somewhat unresolved. The discussion ends on a reflection about early internet porn consumption, the technological changes that have shaped it, and the potential implications of future developments.

    Bidet Aggression, Coochie Water, Clitoral Science, Sydney Sweeney’s Russian, Workplace Lactation Hacks

    This week, we've some discussion of aggressive bidets, the science of clitoral measurements, and why Sydney Sweeney may or may not be fluent in Russian. Mike shares his experience installing a high-end toilet seat that may or may not be waging psychological warfare on his anus. Keith explores the concept of malicious compliance, specifically how a government employee might secretly be helping birth control access by following bad orders too well. Meanwhile, Ally regrets mentioning that airport breastfeeding pods exist because now Mike is brainstorming ways to misuse them. We also break down the latest entry in the "songs that make Ben Shapiro furious" genre, dissecting the lyrics to Fat, Juicy, and Wet with the kind of forensic rigor normally reserved for congressional hearings. What exactly is "coochie water," and why is it being autographed? Did the songwriter fully grasp the anatomical implications of their rhymes? These are the questions that matter, and we bravely attempt to answer them, only to become more confused in the process. Later, we examine a listener’s personal crisis, which starts as a question about losing her sex drive and ends in an existential conversation about whether orgasms are like hunger (or, in Ally’s case, an optional theme park trip). Mike is irritated by the fact that women don’t always want sex, Keith makes a sweeping generalization about men, and Ally tries to explain why sometimes the effort of getting naked is just too much. This leads, naturally, to a discussion of the OKCupid age-attraction graph and a thorough analysis of whether men are hopelessly deluded about their chances with 21-year-olds. The answer: yes, but hope springs eternal. Twitter: @ymmvpod Facebook: ymmvpod Email: ymmvpod@gmail.com

    Performance Anxiety, Group Sex Dynamics, Therapy or Breakup, Attraction Over Time, Masturbation Effects

    This week's conversation begins with a discussion of a bizarre dream involving a psychotherapist, leading to an extended reflection on how people process embarrassment, sexual taboos, and personal boundaries. The hosts debate how different individuals react to unexpected sexual situations and whether certain behaviors are perceived as threatening or simply absurd. This leads to a broader examination of the way people handle personal shame, discomfort, and social norms in sexual contexts. The discussion shifts to personal anecdotes and listener questions, including the challenges of maintaining sexual attraction in long-term relationships. One listener writes in about their wife pushing them to see a sex therapist, prompting a debate on whether sexual desire can be "fixed" and what role therapy actually plays in these situations. The hosts analyze how attraction fluctuates over time, how rejection impacts relationships, and whether sexual routines inevitably deteriorate. They also touch on how external stressors, personal insecurities, and communication failures contribute to sexual dissatisfaction. Later, we examine the psychological and logistical dynamics of group sex, particularly in swinger and threesome scenarios. A listener recounts an experience where a foursome led to unexpected emotional fallout, sparking a conversation on male performance anxiety, jealousy, and the gendered differences in how people navigate group encounters. They also consider how porn, societal conditioning, and personal expectations shape the way men and women experience these situations. The topic extends into a broader exploration of how individuals negotiate sexual experimentation and what factors make certain dynamics appealing or overwhelming. The episode concludes with a discussion about a young couple struggling with orgasm difficulties, raising questions about the impact of habitual masturbation, communication in early relationships, and the effects of pornography on sexual performance. The hosts consider how societal messaging around male sexual function affects self-esteem and expectations in new relationships. They also explore whether behavioral changes, such as abstaining from solo sex, could help reset physical responses. Twitter: @ymmvpod Facebook: ymmvpod Email: ymmvpod@gmail.com

    Soaking Explained, Ghosting Dynamics, Polyamory Challenges, Sexual Routines, Parenting Perspectives

    We dive into the curious phenomenon of "soaking" and its implications on sexual conditioning and religious practices. Keith, Mike, and Ally debate whether this unconventional sexual activity could lead to premature ejaculation and explore how societal norms shape young adults' experiences with sex. The conversation takes a humorous yet analytical turn as they dissect the mechanics of soaking, its representation on social media, and the physiological realities for both men and women. The team transitions into a deep dive on modern dating challenges, focusing on the struggles of navigating first dates and deciphering post-date rejection messages. They analyze the psychology of ghosting, the dynamics of chemistry, and why some interactions result in brutally polite rejection rather than silence. Mike offers his theory on the purpose of "negging" as a dating strategy, while Ally reflects on how women decide whether a man belongs in the relationship, friend, or booty call category. Polyamory and its impact on relationship dynamics take center stage as Mike recounts his encounter with a polyamorous woman at a bar. The hosts discuss the challenges of jealousy, the excitement of new relationships, and how these factors affect long-term stability in polyamorous setups. Ally raises thought-provoking questions about whether polyamory has a "maximum capacity" for partners, leading to a broader conversation about the emotional and logistical toll of such lifestyles. Sexual routines and mismatched expectations in long-term relationships provide another avenue for discussion. A listener’s dilemma about feeling undervalued in their sexual dynamic sparks a lively debate about patterns, spontaneity, and communication. Ally shares her experiences with breaking out of sexual monotony, and the group offers actionable insights into how couples can approach these issues without straining their connection. Finally, the hosts explore the controversial topic of parenting, child-rearing, and how divorced fathers relate to their children compared to mothers. The discussion takes a philosophical turn as they debate whether prioritizing personal happiness over parental devotion is "enlightened" or selfish. Wrapping up the episode with humor, they tackle surprising listener questions about lactation, foreskin restoration, and pubic grooming standards in relationships. It’s an episode packed with candid insights, hard-hitting debates, and plenty of laughs along the way. Twitter: @ymmvpod Facebook: ymmvpod Email: ymmvpod@gmail.com

    Unspoken Desires, Heated Arguments, Unlikely Alliances, Hard Lessons, Surprising Revelations

    Communication in relationships often feels like navigating a maze. One partner might think they’re being crystal clear, while the other feels utterly lost. In this episode, we break down the subtle art of saying what you mean without stepping on each other's toes. Whether it’s about chores, emotional needs, or the dreaded “What’s for dinner?” question, we explore how to find a balance between being direct and being kind. Is “opposites attract” just a myth we tell ourselves, or is there truth behind it? We dig into how differences in personality, habits, and even core values can either fuel passion or spark conflict. More importantly, we discuss how couples can learn to embrace —- and even celebrate —= what makes them different, instead of letting it drive them apart. It’s not about becoming the same person but understanding how to coexist as a team. We also delve into the role humor plays in keeping relationships alive. From shared inside jokes to laughing through mishaps, humor can be a powerful bonding tool—or a subtle way to avoid deeper conversations. Are you using humor to connect, or to deflect? We unpack how to use laughter effectively and why it’s crucial to pay attention to your partner’s response. Finally, we tackle the question of personal growth within a partnership. Can you support your partner’s journey without losing yourself? How do you handle moments when one person seems to be outgrowing the other? We share insights on how to grow together while still honoring your individuality, because the strongest relationships aren’t about blending into one person—they’re about being two whole individuals who choose each other every day.

    100 Man Marathon, Ball Stretchers, Hate-Sex Logistics, Masturbation Privacy, Amusement Park Shenanigans

    Keith and Ally take the reins without Mike, but the lack of a third chair doesn’t stop them from diving headfirst into a bizarre mix of sex, relationships, and logistical puzzles. The duo kicks things off by discussing the viral story of Lily Phillips, a British OnlyFans model who attempted to set a world record by having sex with 100 men in one day. From red eyes to conveyor belts, they pick apart the mechanics, ethics, and deeply strange implications of a culture that produces such stunts—all while trying not to picture it too vividly. They then tackle a question about a woman obsessed with her boyfriend’s testicles. Ally proposes space heaters and ball stretchers as solutions to optimize his "dangle," while Keith investigates the more esoteric paraphernalia of the internet's ball-stretching community. The pair debates whether the whole post might just be a ruse to start a niche fetish discussion, and by the end, neither of them is convinced it isn’t. Keith reluctantly closes his browser window, now resigned to weeks of targeted ads. Later, they examine the case of a man convinced his girlfriend is intentionally destroying his belongings to incite rougher sex. Is she a strategic mastermind, or just tired of vanilla? The hosts offer advice -- kind of -— while reflecting on their own experiences of staying in relationships for all the wrong reasons. Finally, Ally shares a dream involving Mike, an amusement park, and an audaciously inappropriate photo op, prompting a deep dive into ride-photo plausibility and whether Disney’s surveillance systems could catch a staged indecent act. The episode wraps with musings on awkward dating situations, misguided attempts at communication, and the ever-relevant question of how to properly introduce strap-ons into a relationship.
