Afternoon Delight Part 2: Hormonal Birth Control; From IUD's to poppin pills

We’re BACK, baby! 💃 If you thought we covered it all in Afternoon Delight Part 1, think again—because birth control comes in many forms, and we’re breaking them all down. Whether you’re popping a pill, slapping on a patch, or letting the ring do its thing, we’ve got the facts, the history, and the stats you need to make the right choice for YOU. Because when it comes to birth control, one size does NOT fit all!
🔥 What’s on the agenda? 🔥
💊 The Pill:✔️ First hit the market in 1960—and changed everything.✔️ With perfect use, it’s 99% effective, but typical use brings it down to 93%.
👕 The Patch:✔️ Releases steady hormones through the skin—set it and forget it (for a week!).✔️ Can be less effective in people over 198 lbs, so weight may be a factor.
💍 The Ring:✔️ Insert it once a month—hello, low maintenance!✔️ Contains a lower dose of hormones than the pill, but just as effective.
💉 The Shot:✔️ Just 4 shots a year—talk about easy!✔️ Can take 10 months or longer to regain fertility after stopping.
⚠️ REMEMBER: Not all birth control is created equal, and not all bodies react the same way. What’s perfect for your BFF might not vibe with you—and that’s okay! Your body, your rules, your choice.
🎧 Tune in, get the facts, and take control of your reproductive health like the badass you are! And come back for part 3 where we hear listener stories about experience on birth control!
Stay protected. Stay smart. Stay sexy. 😘🔥

Hello Fellow Humans!
Get ready to crank up the fun and kink factor at Backwards Bordelo! Join us for a playful romp through LA’s most outrageous queer kink event, hosted by the fabulous Carter—your guide to everything quirky, sexy, and delightfully subversive. 😘✨
In this episode, we celebrate queer spaces as the ultimate playgrounds for self-expression, creativity, and a little mischief. We’re diving deep into the history of these vibrant havens—from the legendary gay and lesbian bars that lit up our nights to the sizzling alternative events that have taken over when COVID-19 forced many beloved spaces to close. Did you know that nearly 30% of LA’s iconic queer establishments shuttered during the pandemic? 📉 Across the nation, a similar 20% decline has left many feeling the loss of these safe spaces where laughter, love, and liberation once thrived.
But hey, out of every challenge comes a fabulous comeback! 💪🏳️‍🌈 Backwards Bordelo is more than just an event—it’s a beacon of creative resistance. Studies have shown that over 70% of queer youth crave safe environments for authentic exploration and self-discovery, and this event is answering that call with a mix of kink, performance art, and unapologetic joy. 🔥💃
Carter brings their signature blend of humor and heart as we explore how celebrating kink in a secure, inclusive setting isn’t just about pushing boundaries—it’s about building community and fostering empowerment. Whether you’re drawn by the jaw-dropping fire dancers, the immersive Shibari, the dancers and knife play, the vibrant stories of resilience, or the need to reclaim spaces that nurture our true selves, this episode promises to be a rollicking good time! 🎭💖
Tune in for a playful yet powerful journey through queer history, sizzling current trends, and a vision of a future where every queer soul has a space to shine. Because when the going gets tough, the tough get kinked—and we’re here to celebrate it all! 🎙️🌈✨
Let's get this party started! 🎉💥

Full Frontal: Do You Do It Yourself? We talk all things Masturbation with Dr Eric Sprankle!

HELLO FELLOW SELF-LOVING HUMANS! Do we have a TREAT for you! After stalking his Instagram for YEARS, pre-ordering a signed copy of his book "DIY: The Wonderfully Weird History and Science of Masturbation" I had the absolute pleasure of sitting down with the incredible Dr. Eric Sprankle—a sex psychologist, author, and Associate Professor at Mankato State University—who just released his groundbreaking new book on masturbation and sexual health. 🌟 Let me tell you, this episode is a mix of jaw-dropping facts, myth-busting, and even a little horror movie lovefest! 😏🎥
👀 An Amazing Fact About Masturbation: Did you know that regular masturbation can reduce stress, improve sleep, and even boost your immune system? 💤💪 And contrary to the "semen retention" movement, there’s no evidence that holding back ejaculation enhances masculinity or health. In fact, frequent ejaculation may lower the risk of prostate cancer! (Yes, science 🧬 said so.)
We also dove deep into:🔥 Dr. Sprankle’s book: From the stigmas around solo sex to why masturbation is often framed negatively in mainstream conversations, this book is a must-read. His sex-positive perspective is all about embracing pleasure and challenging harmful myths.🧠 The debate on "masturbation addiction": Is it a real thing or just another way to shame people for normal sexual behavior? Spoiler alert: there’s more shame than science here.❌ Why semen retention is NOT the move: Dr. Sprankle broke down the pseudoscience behind this trendy myth and reminded us that pleasure doesn’t need to come with guilt or restrictions.💔 Where’s women’s pleasure in these convos?: We discussed the glaring absence of female masturbation from most discussions—why is society still so uncomfortable with women owning their pleasure? 🙄🍿 Horror movie geek-out: Dr. Sprankle is a HUGE horror fan, and we had so much fun talking about our favorite scary movies. From the classics to the slashers, you’ll love this lighthearted side of the convo! (Spoiler: We’re both team Hereditary 👻.)
This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to challenge sexual shame, learn from one of the best in the field, and maybe add a few horror movies to their watchlist. I was honored to have Dr. Eric Sprankle on the show—his work is game-changing, his energy is contagious, and his humor is unmatched. 😍

We love options and when it comes to birth control, there’s no one-size-fits-all! While hormonal methods work great for many, they’re not the only way to prevent pregnancy. 
🔥 What’s on the agenda? 🔥✔️ Barrier methods—Condoms, diaphragms, and cervical caps (Do you really know how to use them right? Let’s find out!) 🛑💦✔️ Spermicide & Gels—A little extra protection or a sneaky secret weapon? 🏊‍♂️☠️✔️ The pull-out method—Does it actually work?

Some fun facts about condoms for your brains: 
1️⃣ Effectiveness: When used perfectly, condoms are 98% effective at preventing pregnancy. But with typical use (because let’s be real, no one is perfect), effectiveness drops to about 87%.
2️⃣ STI Protection: Condoms are the ONLY birth control method that also protects against sexually transmitted infections (STIs), reducing the risk of HIV transmission by about 80% and significantly lowering the risk of other STIs like chlamydia and gonorrhea.
3️⃣ Breakage & Slippage: About 2% of condoms break or slip off during sex. Using the right size, checking expiration dates, and using water- or silicone-based lube (not oil-based!) can help reduce this risk.

In this episode, we delve into the groundbreaking research of Dr. John Gottman, a pioneer in understanding what makes relationships thrive. We’ll explore the infamous 'Four Horsemen' of relationship doom: Criticism, Contempt, Defensiveness, and Stonewalling. These behaviors can derail even the strongest bonds, and recognizing them is the first step toward fostering a more secure and loving connection.
What sets the Gottman Method apart from traditional couples therapy? Unlike many approaches that focus primarily on past traumas, Gottman's method is rooted in extensive empirical research. He has studied thousands of couples to identify specific, measurable behaviors that predict relationship success. Instead of avoiding conflict, Gottman emphasizes constructive conflict resolution, equipping couples with effective communication skills to navigate disagreements positively.
We’ll introduce the Sound Relationship House Theory, a structured framework that outlines essential levels for strengthening relationships, such as building love maps, nurturing fondness, and creating shared goals. This clear roadmap is unique to the Gottman Method, providing couples with actionable steps toward improvement.
Did you know that according to Gottman’s research, couples who regularly exhibit the Four Horsemen are 80% more likely to break up? However, couples who practice his techniques experience a 94% success rate in improving their relationship satisfaction!
Join us as we share three actionable tips to help you build a stronger foundation:
Practice Appreciation – Make it a habit to express gratitude for your partner.
Learn to Repair – Develop skills to recognize and address conflicts before they escalate.
Foster Emotional Connection – Prioritize meaningful conversations and engage in shared activities.
