WADE DUFFIN IS BACK FOR SLOPPY SECONDS: KIDS OR NO KIDS, THAT IS THE QUESTION!

Today we are joined for Sloppy Seconds with Wade Duffin! You remember Wade: he was a bit of a party boy in his younger days then met my friend and colleague comedian Claire Hooper and is now very much a family man. Indeed, he’s a stay at home dad who’s also just gone into screen writing. We talk about how he's been, dating requirements in middle age (get good pillows people!) and he asks whether it's easier dating people with or without kids. We take great listener calls on dating fat chicks (!) and also, camper vans.

Book recommendation: In the Dream House by Carmen Maria Machado

Sloppy Seconds with Wes Snelling

Wes and I talk about Dry July and how giving up booze for a month radically changed Wes’s anxiety, mood and physical health. Wes asks me about sexual identity and we have a really open and interesting discussion about the stereotypes around bisexuality, sexual fluidity and all the things that come with that. We do some ripper memes and take a couple of gorgeous listener calls on online dating profiles. We take a listener letter on unsolicited dick pics and what the hell is up with that and we end on a discussion about what a massive buzzkill claustrophobic relationships are. Wes, as always, is open, honest and curious. His voice alone is to die for and he brings his beautiful heart and big brain to the chat.

The Fabulous Adam Richard: having sex sober and other stuff!

We are joined this week by comedian, writer and Logies superstar Adam Richard. We talk about owning who you are, how progress is two steps forward and one back, how giving up drinking in middle-age changed EVERYTHING, Adam's first engagement in his late 40's and what it's like to have sex sober after a life-time of drinking. We take a very moving listener call on feeling broken-down and how to get yourself back to solid ground. Plus, all the usual memes and he's a ten but etc. There's so much laughter and wisdom from darling Adam. You're going to love this one.

YVIE JONES IS IN YOUR GOGGLE-BOX!

Today we are joined by the one and only Yvie Jones. You may know her from Gogglebox (yes, her, Angie and all the dogs entertained us for many seasons), or I’m a Celebrity Get me Out of Here, Studio 10, Snackmasters, The Project or her own podcast Two Girls, One Pod.

 

Yvie is a 50 year old, long-term single woman who loves her life! We talk about Yvie’s dating and relationships history, fat shaming and telling people to fuck off.

We take a beautiful listener call from a woman going through chemo who wants to know if she should put pics on the apps of her fabulous bald self or not.

We get into stupid shit Yvie’s ex’s have done (there’s a lot) and “He’s a ten but”.

 

Yvie is an example of a happy, independent woman who knows what she’s worth and embraces the single life. You’re going to love her.

TOM BALLARD: THERE WERE SIGNS!

Today we are joined award winning comedian, actor and homo about town Tom Ballard. We talk about when Tom and I met when he was the ripe old age of 14.

He’s early 30s now so yes, we’ve made an exception to have him on the podcast but man, it was worth it. He tells us his moving and somewhat complicated coming of age story (shout out to Lucy – you’ll know what I mean). Tom and I talk about a Dear Nelly dating success, aging in the gay community and take some wonderful listener calls of growing self awareness and another on how the hell you can tell who and who isn’t a lesbetian.A glorious episode with someone I’ve watched grow up and whom I adore.

SLOPPY SECONDS WITH PRODUCER FAHEY!

We talk about blending families: How do you tell the kids you’re dating, how do you introduce them to new partners and kids and, when do you introduce them?

And break-ups. But of a different kind: how do you break up with friends? Those partings are just as necessary and can be more frequent than romantic ones, but we don’t have a script for it.

We talk trauma bonding: what it is and how to spot it.

And then we take a wonderful listener call on coming (pun intended) into your own in middle age – a 40 something mum who has started dating and discovered she’s a squirter. Having the best sex of her life - on a pile of towels.

A beautiful and hilarious episode with my bestie and the producer of this podcast, Fabulous Fahey.

WELCOME TO KINK AND OTHER STUFF

Today we’re joined by bone fide civilian and horn-bag Son Guzzardi. Son shares some awful teen experiences at Catholic school, their early long-term relationship with an older man and then a joyful exploration – and perhaps late adolescence – as a queer person. Son is now married with kids and we talk about how that squares with being – in their words – a ho. Son talks about finding the kink scene and how empowering that was.

We also take some listener calls on non-monogamy, poly and related issues. Finally, we end with a fight about bisexuality and we witness the evolution of The Son from biphobia to open-minded acceptance and also, from their previous codependent ways to valuing autonomy and space. Son is warm, open, funny and very generous in sharing about mistakes they’ve made and how they’ve changed. I absolutely loved this chat and I reckon you will too.
