In this episode, I talk about how many disabled people don't get a second date, and from there we look at popular magazine suggestions about what to do on Date #2, and apply disability to them. Maybe on the 2nd date you can bring up ableism. Maybe on the 2nd date you can take your date on disability transit. Maybe on that second date you can wear comfy crip clothes, and be way more your disabled self on the date than you thought. All this and more on this episode. Enjoy!
In this episode, I look at the logistics of sex in a bathtub when you have a disability.

In this episode, I sit down with disabled married couple Kate & Aaron Wolovsky. They go by "The Disabled Duo." We have a fun chat about their disabled meet cute, their marrisge and sex life as a disabled couple and a whole lot more. Enjoy!
In this episode, I invite the hosts of the Do You Queer What I Queer Podcast, Elliott and Thom to ask me questions about sex, disability and queerness they might have. Things take a pretty hilarious turn as they discover why taint-sucking is the most accessible sex act, I recount hilarious stories (again!), we talk ableist misconceptions and more! Enjoy!
In this bonus episode, I sit down with Associate Professor of English in Women's and Gender Studies at Williamette, Allison P. Hobgood. We interrogate how crip sexuality, disability and Shakespeare go together by looking at his play Measure by Measure. Through the play, we talk about how in Shakespearean times crip corporeality has always been there whether we realized it or not. This episode brought my love of history, disability and sexuality back together, and I had to share with you. Enjoy!
In this episode, I sit down with poet and professor Travis Lau as we talk about how his queerness and Asian background and upbringing both collided with his disability and mild scoliosis throughout his formative years and in gay spaces. Enjoy!
In this episode I talk about how I just got a brand new accessible bed, and how that has changed my sex life. I share how difficult sex was in my old bed, the struggles of finding an accessible luxury bed, I ponder why these beds are not marketed to sexy, disabled people, and finally, I tell you why sex in my new accessible bed is awesome. Enjoy!
I sit down with Thomas Dixon, creator of Me.mory as we talk about how his experience with traumatic brain injury affects his memory, and how his memory has played a role in his sex life and his relationships; how sex has been different since his injury (maybe even better) and so much more. Enjoy!
Since we haven't done an episode about Gimps on Grindr since WAAAAAAAAY back in Episode 5, I thought it was time to revisit some of the things guys have said to me on the app. You'll hear about the guy who gave me a rude awakening, the guy who asked me if I was "born in a tiny chair" and so much more. Enjoy Episode 138, all about ableist appholes!
In this very special bonus episode, I sit down with one of my podcast colleagues and someone who I totally admire, Jeremie Saunders. He is the one of the hosts of the wildly popular podcasts "Sickboy" all about finding the funny in chronic illness and/or disability and "Turn Me On", a podcast wherein he explores sexuality topics with his wife, Bryde. I talk to him today about his life with Cystic Fibrosis, and how living with a shortened life expectancy has had an impact on his sense of impulsiveness, time, relationships, and of course, sex. This was one of my favorite interviews ever that I just couldn't wait to share with you. Enjoy!
