SexGeeks: The Graydancer Interview Sun, 08 May 2005 22:21:00 PDT (9.7 Mb) Sorry folks, due to an application crash, we lost the last show we recorded.
We'll be getting on a regular schedule soon, so you won't have to guess when the shows are coming out. In the meantime, here's an interview that was going to air on the lost show. It's with Graydancer from the Rope Weekly podcast. Graydancer agreed to sit down and answer some questions for us and at the same time be our guinea pig as we try remote interviews for the first time.
Here is the edited version of the interview (~20 mins, ~9.5MB) with a brief introduction by Rob. If you'd like to hear the full, un-edited version, you can find it here (~1hr, ~25MB).
We'll have a new show soon; thanks for hanging in there.
SexGeeks: SexGeeks Goes Indigenous Wed, 20 Apr 2005 20:08:48 PDT (29.7 Mb) In this installation (~29MB, ~1hr), semi-pro anthropologist Jeremy Stone joins Lindsay and Rob to talk about sex and sexuality in other cultures. From cross-dressers that were required by Native Americans to build a particular lodge, to the sexual training of boys in another culture, to the concept of the "uncleanness" of women, join us for a peek at sex around the world.
Sexgeeks: Transgenderism, sex-related podcasts, and listener mail Thu, 27 Apr 2006 06:34:11 PDT (37.4 Mb) I'm posting the newest SexGeeks installment (~37MB, ~1h 20m) without all of the supporting links et al because it's been a while since the last show and I'm not yet sure when I'll have gone through and found all of the links we mentioned and didn't want to delay the show any longer.
So, I'll update this post with notes as I complete them, meanwhile I hope you enjoy the show!
(PS, we're about to get on a regular schedule for making these shows so you'll better know when to expect them.)
Notes as they get updated: Rob mentions the radio show Gender Talk which focuses on transgender-related issues. Gender Talk has recently become available in podcast form (the podcast feed is in the upper right corner of the home page).
We discussed a recent installment of Tech Nation (available in podcast form from the wonderful IT Conversations site, were Deborah Rudacille talks about the complexity of gender.
Lindsay mentioned Koan Bremner's CrossOver podcast, where Koan has occasional audio snippets about her experience being transgendered.
We opened a new delicious accout where anyone who listens can add links for everyone else to see. The user name ...
SexGeeks: Anal Stimulation for the Straight Man Tue, 29 Aug 2006 22:59:48 PDT (24.4 Mb) Here's another installment of SexGeeks (~23MB, ~50 mins)
This week we had a guest, Anthony, with us.
Here are some of what we talked about in the show:
Hetro/Homo male love
An awful swingers movie May have been "The Lifestyle"
RealDolls, Fucking Machines, and sex with inanimate, or semianimate objects RealDoll.com Violet Blue's Delicious links RealDollDoctor FuckingMachines.com Elena Dorfman's photos of dolls and their owners
Lindsay wonders if there is such a thing as an escort service of women for women.
Anal stimulation and the straight man
Age of consent and sodomy laws AgeOfConsent.com
SexGeeks: Horny Monkeys, Divorce, and Penis Injections Sun, 06 Mar 2005 15:06:44 PST (22.8 Mb) Here's the newest installment of SexGeeks (~47 mins, ~22MB).
We have some new equipment, so hopefully things are sounding better than last time.
Here are the things we referenced throughout today's show.
The Scientific American article on gay population distribution (link to summary, the full article is available for purchase only).
The Morning Wood and their discussion of genital shaving, among other things.
Scarleteen.com, a good resource for teens (and adults) on sex and how the sex organs work.
"The Four-Year Itch" by Helen E. Fisher. Published in the October, 1987 edition of Natural History.
Violet Blue tries Viagra.
Koko and breasts (on Yahoo.com).
Mark Savage's giant, enhanced penis SiliconeFreak.com FAQ Photos from ExtremeCock.com (explicit).
Update: Almost forgot that Rob also mentioned the gender issues podcast Sex Talk
SexGeeks: The "Inside Deep Throat" Review Fri, 25 Feb 2005 08:57:47 PST (17.0 Mb) In this special edition of SexGeeks (35 min, 16.7MB), we talk about the documentary "Inside Deep Throat" about the making, and aftermath, of the movie Deep Throat.
The sound is crappier than usual, as we were using a more portable setup, so we appologize for that. We should be upgrading our equipment soon, so hopefully things will sound much better in the near future.
I think the only thing we mentioned that needs a link is Michael Geoghegan's very excellent Reel Reviews podcast, which Rob mentioned in passing.
Rob mentioned an interesting study that was conducted in 1996 relating partner selection to immune systems that seems to have at least a mild effect on humans. Rob talked about a study done on a high school that ultimately produced some cool maps on the sex links between people attending the school. Rob commented on how there were fewer bisexual and gay relationships reported than one might expect. Rob also talked about an article that indicates a treatment for helping post-menopausal women to have "normal" sex drives seems on the horizon (a testosterone spray), but that it's initial uses may go towards bringing young women with low sex drives because of low testosterone levels, back up to "normal". Rob mentioned in passing a Wired article that indicates that a female equivalent of Viagra may be more difficult to create. We talked about an op-ed piece in the New York Times discussing how the focus on children in the US interferes with the sex lives of parents.
Lindsay brought up another New York Times article that discusses the rise of risky ...
SexGeeks: Sex Drives, Pedophilia in the Catholic Church, and Polyamory Wed, 26 Apr 2006 11:08:18 PDT (31.9 Mb) Here's the newest SexGeeks show (1h 5m, 31MB).
Last week we talked about Good Vibrations, a store in San Francisco, for a little while, but forgot to leave a pointer to their web site. You can find it at: http://www.goodvibes.com.
Amy Gahran gave us a nice entry in her "Women in Podcasting" list (in case you are wondering, Lindsay is female ;).
This week, we talked about how the stereotype of the horny male may not be valid for most men after their 20's.
We also touch again briefly on sexuality in different cultures. We'd love to hear more people's experience with sex and sexuality in different places in the world.
Lindsay wondered aloud why pedophilia appears to be so prominent in the Catholic church, so Rob takes a stab at a possible explanation.
At the suggestion of a listener, we take a first stab at talking about polyamory. We were referred to the LovingMore site as a resource. Rob points out that an interesting analogy for polyamory might be the Creative Commons licensing, and suggests we all get cards indicating what the rules of our committed relationships are. Don't know how feasible that is, but interesting to think about any...
Sex Geeks Repost: Good Vibrations, The L-Word, and Finding Love on Amazon.com Tue, 26 Sep 2006 13:06:05 PDT (24.7 Mb) Had some trouble creating the initial RSS feed with enclosures, so I'm reposting the original article with the first link removed so that Feedburner recognizes it correctly.
