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!
In this episode, I continue talking to non-disabled community members about what might happen if they became disabled tomorrow. This time, I sit down with LGBTQ&A Podcast host, Jeffrey Masters. He tells me how he thinks his sense of independence might be altered, and how car hook ups might be a tad different. I loved this one. Enjoy!
In this episode, I sit down with UK motivational speaker, Fern Lulham. We talk about her experiences navigating the dating world as a blind woman, some of the ways she tried to cope with the stigma of blindness, how disability affected her self-esteem and her sense self, fashion, her guide dog Nancy and so much more. Enjoy!
In this episode, I sit down with sex educator Anne Hodder-Ship as we explore her experiences with chronic constipation and how that has affected her sexuality, her sense of safety and so much more.
In this episode I do something a little different on the show. I reached out to my friends Mike and Kyle from the wildly popular Gayish Podcast, and asked them to come on the show so I could ask them, "What If You Became Disabled Tomorrow?" We talk about how their views on sex might change, what they'd be afraid of and so much more. Enjoy, this one is important!!
In this episode, I sit down with actor Anthony Michael Lopez. We chat everything from acting with a disability, and how he prepared for his roles in Mapplethorpe and Broad City to chatting about sex and disability as a gay amputee. Believe me, the title of this episode is more than appropriate. I loved this episode so much, and I hope you do too.
In this episode, I explore how to go on a romantic getaway with your disabled lover. We talk about how there are no images of disabled couples on blogs about romantic getaways... We explore why maybe surprising your disabled lover with an impromptu unplanned getaway is a bad idea, and we talk about how some of the blogs' romantic getaway spots completely miss the mark on accessibility. We also look at a few things you can do to still have that sexy, disabled vacation. Enjoy!
In this episode, I sit down with the creator of the Girl Boner brand, August McLaughlin. We have a chat about how ADHD has an effect on your sex life, how sometimes things can be really intense because of it, and a whole lot more. Enjoy!
In this very special bonus episode, I sit down with playwright and artist Nicholas Linnehan. We talk about his experience being gay and disabled, and turning that into art projects like his upcoming short film, "Catfish", and his play "Identity" which closes in New York this weekend! We also talk about how Nicholas is looking for more than just a hook up, and so much more.
