We're thrilled to host Joan Breibart, a pioneering force in the fitness world, as she lends her insightful perspective on the evolution of food, diet, and health trends over the decades.

As we explore the promises and critiques surrounding these developments, Johan and I open a conversation about the broader, often overlooked impacts of obesity and weight loss on our health and society. Join us for an enlightening discussion that dares to challenge conventional wisdom and offers hope in the battle against obesity.

What if the way we talk about sex has been all wrong? Join us in a groundbreaking conversation with Tess and Kels, the brilliant minds behind SQUIRM, as we dismantle the stereotypes and stigmas surrounding sexual communication. We challenge the influence of media portrayals and the striking lack of authoritative guidance, leaving many to navigate sex education through the lens of internet porn and peer interactions. Our discussion sheds light on how religious and cultural backgrounds shape our understanding and communication about sex, emphasizing the importance of experimentation and breaking free from societal norms to transform power dynamics within relationships.
Continuing our exploration, we tackle the often-awkward subject of sex education with younger generations, advocating for open dialogues around porn literacy. We focus on creating safe spaces where feedback during intimacy is seen as an enhancement, not a mood killer. The conversation pushes back against the notion that talking about sex ruins it, promoting a culture of openness and curiosity. We also broaden our perspective on pornography's societal role—examining its diverse forms and cultural roots, like the Kama Sutra—to foster more informed and less stigmatized conversations about sexuality. This is a call to break taboos, embrace curiosity, and enrich our understanding of intimacy and pleasure.
