Annie and Jess start the show talking about the British Bake Off and the fuel shortage that actually is not a fuel shortage. Then, they welcome their guest “Polly” to talk about polyamory! She goes way deep talking about how she met her partners, how she handles jealousy and setting boundaries in her partnerships, the difference between monogamy and polyamory, some challenges that have come up, and the important things to know if you are thinking about opening up your relationship.

In This Episode You’ll Hear About:

• An update on the lovely yet odd lady in the pool, and a new dude that needs to stay in his own lane.
• Remember at the beginning of the pandemic when we went crazy over toilet paper? That was weird.
• Polly believes that she gets more fulfillment out of life with different partners meeting different needs, instead of depending on just one person to try and meet all of them.
• Polly explains how she met all of her current partners and the different dynamics between them.
• What is the difference between polyamory and monogamy, and polyamory and fetish or swinging parties?
• The importance of openness and honesty with your partners if you are considering being poly.
• Why bringing in a third person just to spice up your relationship may not be the right idea.
• Want to hear more about Polly’s fetishes and kinks? Make sure you tune back in just a few weeks in January!

The Great British Bake Off 

90 Day Fiance 

Annie and Jess kick off this week talking about a weird dream including breastfeeding your dogs, and why we just don’t need to wear pants. Then Jess explains how she is more of a social moth than a butterfly, and they get ready to take a very quick but well-needed break. Then, they get into the topic of the week: contraception. They give their personal experiences, what to know when finding one right for you, and the side effects they have endured.

In This Episode You’ll Hear About:

• Annie and Jess know they aren’t doctors! They are just sharing from their own personal experiences and hopefully entertaining you in the process.
• Men wince at the thought of getting snipped, but how bad is it compared to being on medication in your early teens?
• Birth control can have side effects that we are ashamed to talk about, but this is a safe space here.
• What birth control have Annie and Jess used? Are they on any now?
• How to give yourself a breast exam. It’s easy, safe, and part of a true self-care routine.

How Birth Control Changes Everything 

Jess swears off alcohol (for now), and Annie gets a brand new car! Then, the ladies talk about mood swings, PMT, and how to get others to take you seriously when you’re always joking. They check the DM slides and answer some questions about drunk antics, dirty dates, and clitoral erections. 

In This Episode You’ll Hear About:

• Annie gets her first brand new car! Even with a heated steering wheel! 
• If you are a man or partner of someone that menstruates, it may not make sense, but know that the whole process can be very annoying and uncomfortable. Thank you for your empathy.

• A DM slides about a missing condom, and a pube covered pizza box. 
• What are the grossest things you’ve ever discovered dating someone? 
• Yes, clitoral erections are a thing. 
• Annie and Jess talk about their favorite way to orgasm, and read a listener story about their forehead being forever changed.

Simba

Jess is seeing a new guy, and takes him to a party where he gets very admired. This leads to a conversation about the difference between harmless flirting and being weird, and a question about when each of the ladies first did the deed. Then, Annie does some math as she and Jess calculate how many people they’ve been with, and share a sex position they would love to try and fun products that will make it even better. 

In This Episode You’ll Hear About:

• What is the true average of how many blo**jobs a man gets a week, and how many do they even want?! 
• Annie and Jess talk about what age they were when they first had sex, and what they still remember from the experience. 
• How many people have they slept with? Just don’t expect them to do math. 
• What’s a sex position you would love to try? 
• Have Annie and Jess done threesomes or group sex before? 
• Do the ladies read erotic fiction? 
• How often do Annie and Jess masturbate? 

Quote:

• “I am a flirt and I love attention. Doesn’t everyone?” 
• “I talked about my flaps curtain. There is no way you want your mate hearing that!” 
• “I want to be on a slide and have his dick slide into me.” 
• “I went home in a trolley last night. That was great.”

Annie and Jess have a jam-packed show starting with a chat about personal space, why we need lifeguards and having the important talk with your partner about kids and engagement rings. Then, join them for a quiz to see if you and your partner (or friend, or even dog) are right for each other and to open up some crazy secrets you may have never known about each other before.

In This Episode You’ll Hear About:

• Which one are you — a hoarder or a throw-away-er? 
• Annie has a friend at the swimming pool that either fancies her, is jealous, or just really confused about spatial awareness.
• So we do need lifeguards after all?
• Even if it’s early on — have the “kids” talk! And the “ring” talk!
• How awkward is it to have sex dreams about random people in your life?
• A partner quiz to talk about all the juicy details of sex with your person including embarrassing moments, the mile-high club, and fantasies.
• Jess hears about the mirror in Annie’s bathroom and gets very turned on.

90 Day Fiance 

Take the Partner Quiz! 

Annie sees a little weasel running across the road and Jess enjoys her freedom and shares a little about a recent hookup. They dive into the topic of the week - fannies, aka vaginas. Fannies are like snowflakes, no two are the same, and that is what makes them beautiful. They talk about what their own fannies look like, and the one comment that led to getting a fanny trimmed. Society may make things like pigmentation or an extended labia seem weird or gross, but Annie and Jess feel very differently and have something to say about it. 

In This Episode You’ll Hear About:

•  Jess hooks up with a hot woman, and is also enjoying her freedom! 
• The hang-overs get even tougher as you get older. Maybe 10 jagers is about 8 too many these days. 
• Porn represents one type of vagina, but let’s normalize that being different is okay. 
• Jess and Annie discuss their fannies, what they love about them, and the weird comments others have made about them. 
• Pigmentation, extended labia lips, and hair are normal, but society doesn’t always act like they are. 
• It’s okay to do what makes you feel comfortable, even if that means changing the aesthetic of your labia / lips / clitoris. 
• There is no standard when it comes to vaginas, and certainly no “better” or “worse”.
• If a man doesn’t like your protruding labia, don’t worry about it. He’s probably not going to be a great lover anyway. 
• Bonus: big clits are great for dry humps. 

Quote:

• “Maybe necking 10 jagers is not great for me.” 
• “Why do you give a sh*t if you can see labia or not?” 
• “I think camel toes are sexy.”

The Vulva Gallery

Annie and Jess kick off the show talking about taking a little break, and then check out the DM slides since their inboxes seem to always be full with the most entertaining people. The messages lead to a Tinder conversation reenactment and a conversation on why you don’t always need to label yourself, and why Jess isn’t currently hooking up with girls.

In This Episode You’ll Hear About:

• A few of the insane people from Annie and Jess’s DM’s — you won’t believe the audacity!
• Annie and Jess love hearing from you whether you learn from them, can relate to them, or are just entertained by them.
• If you are a grown adult, please use a towel when you get out of the shower. Drying off in your soggy bed? NO!
• Some of your amusing dating stories, including going from holding hands to dating someone real quick.
• Why doesn’t Jess hook up with girls if she watches lesbian porn?
• If you want to label your sexuality — cool! If you don’t want to label yourself. Cool! Whatever is right for you.
• Why is it socially acceptable for women to try new things in the bedroom but not always men?
• Annie and Jess loved your “Queef” movie titles including “Queef War” and “28 Queefs Later.” Classic.

Quote:

• “Sometimes the chaser needs to be chased. Why is no one chasing me!?”
• “There is more to life than just inserting your penis and thinking that is what every woman wants.”
