Ep. 40: You Could Just Shut Up ft. Professor Odi

We've all heard it before, monogamy is the 'norm,' but what if we told you that there's more than one way to love? Join us on this enlightening journey as we unravel the complex world of ethical non-monogamy with our returning guest, Professor Odi. We dare to question the taboos that have long overshadowed non-monogamous relationships in various cultures, particularly African-American and Brown communities, and encouragingly discuss how conscious monogamy can also be a choice. We'll also brave the silence that surrounds polyamory, bringing to light the idea of sapiosexuality, the admiration for intelligence over physical attractiveness, and the unspoken value of relationships beyond monogamy. The cherry on top, we delve into the world of sex magic, unearthing its healing potential and how it can spice up relationships.  (09:19) - We dive into the world of polyamory, discussing its complexities and the experiences it brings.
