In this episode I do something a little different on the show. I reached out to my friends Mike and Kyle from the wildly popular Gayish Podcast, and asked them to come on the show so I could ask them, "What If You Became Disabled Tomorrow?" We talk about how their views on sex might change, what they'd be afraid of and so much more.

In this episode, I sit down with actor Anthony Michael Lopez. We chat everything from acting with a disability, and how he prepared for his roles in Mapplethorpe and Broad City, to chatting about sex and disability as a gay amputee. Believe me, the title of this episode is more than appropriate. I loved this episode so much, and I hope you do too.

In this episode, I explore how to go on a romantic getaway with your disabled lover. We talk about how there are no images of disabled couples on blogs about romantic getaways... We explore why maybe surprising your disabled lover with an impromptu unplanned getaway is a bad idea, and we talk about how some of the blogs' romantic getaway spots completely miss the mark on accessibility. We also look at a few things you can do to still have that sexy, disabled vacation. Enjoy!

In episode 129, I sit down with the cohost of the kink and BDSM podcast "Off The Cuffs", Minimus Maximus, or just "Max" for short. He reveals how his autism and Asperger's has an effect on his masculinity. We chat about how ASD plays into kink scenes, how order in BDSM calms his Aspie brain; we chat about his bisexuality and how different partners handle his Asperger's. he tells me about some thoughts on Asperger's portrayals in pop culture, and we both prove that the weird kid is almost always the hot one!
