It was a pleasure...kind of?
On this episode, we bring back our first guest ever, Ariana's mom. We dive into some taboo topics again such as sex, masturbation, and the elusive female orgasm. We discuss the differences between men and women when it comes to seeking pleasure, and how our hormones dictate a lot of our behavior. Listen as we get very personal in an effort to make pleasure seem less scary to talk about.

It takes a strong mom to be a father too.
This week Ryan returns from vacation, and we get to speak with one of the most strong and hard-working women we know, our dear friend Vanessa. March 8th is International Women's day, and we wanted to honor her and discuss what it is like being a single mom raising her daughter while working 40+ hours a week. She tells us it's twice the work, twice the stress, and twice the tears, but also twice the hugs, twice the love, and twice the pride.
