Summary

A bi man in an open relationship is disgusted by sweat- his lover’s and his own. How can he mitigate his revulsion? A macho, macho man wants to know why he (or anyone) is into hot wifing. Dan breaks it down and spells it out. On the Magnum, a man with cerebral palsy doesn’t have use of his hands, and cannot masturbate. Even worse, he lives in a small town, so sex workers are hard to find. Dan chats with disability awareness consultant Andrew Gurza, about sex with disability, and a special sex toy that Andrew created specially for folks like this.

One of the bridesmaids is gay, and dating a trans woman. How can the caller avoid turning her very special day into the shit-show of the century?

I was planning to talk about the James Webb Space Telescope at the top of this week's show.

0:27.6

It's the largest telescope ever hurled into space, a $10 billion price tag, 30 years,

0:34.7

in the planning. The Webb Telescope can peer into the deepest recesses of space and time,

0:41.0

much farther out and much farther back than the Hubble Telescope, and the very first images.

0:46.0

From the Webb Telescope will be released today, Tuesday, July 11th by the President.

0:51.5

I'm excited. I think we're about to find out that the universe wasn't created in seven days,

0:55.9

and is more than 6,000 years old. And who knows? Maybe we'll catch a glimpse of an alternate universe

1:02.4

somewhere where the President went ahead and canceled student loan debt. Anyway, I don't want to

1:08.2

come off like some sort of cloud chaser, but I actually have a very weird, very tenuous and

1:14.0

very aggravating connection to the James Webb Space Telescope. Thanks to the New York Times.

1:20.2

The paper of record, all the news that's fit to print, first draft of history and all that.

1:24.4

And maybe I'll talk about that on another show. Because today, I want to talk about some breaking

1:31.2

news, porn news, news that's a bit more in the wheelhouse of a sex advice podcast, or a bit more

1:37.7

in the whorehouse or bathhouse or mollyhouse of a sex advice podcast. And it's good news for a change.

1:44.0

I feel like it's been forever since I've been able to open the show with some good news.

1:48.4

So that's why I'm not going to rehearse my beef with the New York Times and New York Times Science

1:55.1

reporter Dennis Overby today on this week's show about how they described me or overbeacused me

2:02.4

of leading some sort of campaign that doesn't exist to get James Webb's name off that telescope.

2:10.4

James Webb was an administrator at NASA in the 1960s when they put a man on the moon. But before

2:15.6

working at NASA, James Webb was an undersecretary of state in the Truman administration during the

2:21.5

lavender scare. He oversaw the firing of gay men and lesbians from the state department.
