About Our Podcast

Sex, Politics, And Religion, the three topics we are told to never bring up in polite company. Well, this ain’t a polite podcast.

Sex:  When we talk about sex, we are talking about gender discrimination, attacks on choice, and, well, simple ol’ getting it on sex. (Note:  We did not say this podcast is family friendly.)

Politics:  Democrat? Republican? Green? Libertarian? Politically homeless? Then we are talking to you. You won’t agree with everything on this show but it would be boring if you did, anyway. 

Religion:  Simply put, we don’t buy into organized mythol… uh, spirituality. To do good is our religion (with thanks to Thomas Paine). This is a skeptic’s view but if your belief system helps you do good, then we like you, anyway. 

Race:  If we are tackling controversial topics, we might as well include race. We start with the premise that racism is alive and well in the world and go from there.
