Michael, Tim, and Jon talk about shit going sideways, and the latest from VicHealth about Shigella. In fact, we have so much information about Shigella that we can't hold it in.

We want you to know what Shigella is, how it affects people, as well as what to do if you've been infected. This quick infodump covers the important info about Shigella as well as some lived experience about how shit it can be.

The VicHealth Warning is available online at THIS LINK

We talk about how this set of cases mirrors previous movements in Shigellosis cases, and how it can be treated before it runs too far.

Michael, Tim, and Jon have a bits fest - talking about bits this and bits that. The gang check in on the pulse of what's happening with HIV treatment and PrEP for people without Medicare. We talk starting (and keeping up with) OnlyFans, and taking antibiotics for preventing STIs. We talk about a new project Michael is working on supporting the mental wellbeing of queer people born overseas - Everyday People.

Oh look, All the gang's together! (but what are we gonna do after graduation?)

Tim, Michael, and Jon sit down to discuss our (cum) bucket list, our shopping cart, our sexual weather forecast if you will. It's sort of like sexual Never Have I Ever where we discuss toys and gear we want to buy, parties and men unsullied, and what's on the whoreizon.

SexTech refers to the intersection of technology and sexuality, encompassing a range of innovations, products, and services that aim to enhance and explore human sexuality. It is a growing field that leverages advancements in technology to revolutionize various aspects of sexual experiences, education, health, and relationships.

Michael and Jon sit down with Kath Albury, Professor of Media & Communication at Swinburne University of Technology Melb, an Australian Research Council Future Fellow, and Associate Investigator in the Australian Research Council Centre of Excellence for Automated Decision-Making.

Michael mentions an episode of Well, Well, Well, which discussed SexTech back in 2020

Yers, we talk about sex robots - but also the vast and expansive future of sex and technology, and ways tech can be used to better our sexual pleasure. We chat about misgivings of the wellness industry, the gendering of sex products, and our digital privacy when our sex lives are in the cloud.

for information on the research project 'Digital sexual health: Apps and platforms for safety, enjoyment and well-being in LGBTQ+ communities’ visit https://bit.ly/digitalsexualhealth. If you live in Australia, are over 18, and are a member of the LGBTQ+ community who uses sextech, Kath and the team would love to hear from you. This project was approved by the Swinburne University Human Research Ethics Committee (#20226849-12109).
