E236: Sex with Other People…Around: Our Holiday Do’s and Don’ts


Listen Later

It’s the season of gratitude, family time… and figuring out how to have sex quietly. 😅

This Thanksgiving, we’re throwing it back to one of our most iconic early episodes — all about having sex when other people are around. Whether you’re hosting the in-laws, crashing at your parents’ place, or sharing a wall with your roommates, this one’s for you.


💛 In this episode, you’ll hear:

  • Whether it’s actually okay to have sex when you have guests (or you’re the guest).

  • Our best stealth-mode tips for keeping things quiet and respectful.

  • The most common mistakes couples make when trying to sneak one in.

  • How to manage the stress and guilt that come with “guest sex.”

  • Bonus: hilarious, cringe-worthy stories from our Instagram community that prove you are definitely not alone.

    If you’ve ever had to choose between your sex life and your sanity during the holidays… consider this your survival guide. 🦃
