    Susan Bratton is a sex advisor, author, and program creator who is HERE for our pleasure ladies! She teaches sexual wellness, which includes unlearning a lot of outdated & gendered nonsense. We get into how to ask your partner to do things differently, niche toys, persistent bad sex tips to ignore, and compensatory mechanisms to counteract the patriarchy making our sex lives worse. Basically Susan is full of spicy, descriptive, and helpful language, and religion-residue-Alison does her best to keep up. (Optional prerequisites: “9: On Your Varied and Vibrant Vulva” & “17: On the Clit — It’s Lit!”)

  • It's Not Really About The Dishes

    It's Not Really About The Dishes
    Sep 21 2026
    Girlies,* if you've ever felt like you're responsible for more than your fair share at home, this episode is for you. We’re joined by Kate Mangino, author of Equal Partners: Improving Gender Equality at Home, to talk about how couples can divide labor more fairly. This includes factoring in the mental load that comes with managing schedules, anticipating needs, & keeping a household running. Not all tasks require the same type of energy and equality is not as simple as splitting a chore list in half. We specifically ask Kate how to start these conversations early, without also starting a fight, and talk about why these dynamics matter in same-sex relationships too. This one is about practical strategies for anyone who feels like they’re carrying too much and would very much like a chance to chill the fuck out sometimes.

    *def applies to everyone buuuuut we all know household labor is femme-coded and that really ought to change

  • Peer-Reviewed Bias: Dr. Jennifer Grandis on 'Harsh Medicine'

    Peer-Reviewed Bias: Dr. Jennifer Grandis on 'Harsh Medicine'
    Sep 3 2026
    Today we’re joined by Dr. Jennifer Grandis! Dr. Grandis is a physician, surgeon, cancer researcher, and author of Harsh Medicine: Why Women Can’t Get Ahead in Science and Health Care. Women now make up the majority of medical school graduates, so you might think sexism in medicine has been solved. Nay. Dr. Grandis interviewed over 100 doctors & scientists about what actually happens post-graduation... we see job titles without real authority, unequal access to resources, harassment, stalled promotions, and institutions that claim meritocracy right up until a gal has the balls to ask for equal pay. Important to discuss because representation is not the same as power, and we love a woman in power :)
