Zach brittle we're here with laura heck first things first i want to congratulate nick and sasha

and or kori and step for their fantasy football victory in the first annual marriage therapy

radio football league one of them probably won we had a

scoring snafu but they're both champions in my heart i just want to say thank you to everybody

who played this year and if you want to play next year then you're going to have to pay attention

because uh we already have a like i don't know dibs so uh but we have like six or eight months

for now we have the very distinct pleasure of talking

to Emily Nagoski, who if you've listened to the podcast at all, you know she's been on our

wish list for a very long time. Laura and I both have deep, deep respect for her work. And she is

super cool. We talked to her for a very long time. We actually split this episode into two.

This is part one where we just get to know Emily and some of her thoughts in particular around

sex. You'll know about her book, Come as You Are. She's got another book that she's working on that

she is excited to tell us a little bit about. It is my very distinct pleasure to say this is a very

cool conversation
