Hello friend it's Sex Nerd Sandra and I'm so excited for week two of this new launch.

Hi, something I have on my personal list for the new year is to find the episode that I recorded with someone about

gender and DNA. I the one of the last conferences I was able to go to a couple years

ago was at UCLA and I didn't understand most of the science at the time because I hadn't

been through all the biology and chemistry that I now have been through, but I got to sit down with somebody around.

You know, I can't even hardly remember because I have so many notes and then I interviewed

somebody in a parking lot about their research on genetic expression and gender.

Anyway, so I'm very excited because whether it's a usable episode or not,

I really want to share with you what I learned at that conference so it'll be a good sex nerd out for both of us

But for now, oh my goodness so this episode well this week is holiday week and I really didn't think I was going to do anything for it because you know we're all busy and New Year's is coming. But so many people have signed up on Patreon. We are now just over $900 and just over 130 patrons and I'm in awe and so I'm like I'm energized I'm excited I'm a little tired because it was

Christmas which is what my family celebrates and then two weddings I'm doing

I'm doing the flowers for a friend's wedding today because surprise that's something that I know

how to do. But I want to get this out to you so I got to sit down with Dave Ross he was available and so kind to

talk with me. Dave Ross being the co-host for the first hundred episodes of the

show and it's been four years we talk a lot about

how much time has passed and whether or not you've listened to a lot of previous episodes I would

say that I was shocked at how much this was a relationship conversation.

We really have the distance now to talk about what we were going through at the time

that we were hosting together. So we go through

lots of phases. At the very end we talk about some of the questions that patrons asked and it's just a fun talk. I loved talking to Dave

honestly and ended with a warm hug and just all good feelings, you know, because it was a rough ride sometimes no

but we made some some good adventures together. Oh co-hosts that was the day
