Mean Book Club

Guest Dan Savage on: Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Sex But Were Afraid to Ask by David Reuben


Listen Later

THE sex manual of 1969 (yeah baby) is also one of the all time best selling books EVER in America. Yeah, if you were breathing in 1969, odds are: YOU READ THIS BOOK. But is it a radical, liberal education on "fun sex" or a truly disturbing attack on women, aging, and homosexuality that you cannot even FIND in libraries today?

We have award-winning podcast host and best-selling author DAN SAVAGE (instagram.com/dansavage/?hl=en) on the cast to help us find out. Spoiler: We find out VERY quickly. Kind of like, page two...

This is a great one, so tune in! And check out Dan's podcast and column!
