In this powerful and eye-opening episode of Please Me, we're diving into the uncomfortable but critical topic of how abuse often hides behind the mask of love, jealousy, and control. Host Eve sits down with Shawn Schutt and Amanda Courier, co-hosts of the Touchy Subjects podcast, to unpack the hidden layers of domestic violence and sexual assault—and how abusers manipulate relationships long before physical violence ever occurs.

Shawn and Amanda specialize in breaking the silence around topics most people avoid—and today, they’re exposing the subtle yet dangerous tactics abusers use to gain power and control, from isolation and jealousy to phone surveillance and emotional manipulation.

 In this episode, we discuss:
 The true definitions of domestic violence and sexual assault
 How jealousy is often the first red flag—and why society normalizes it
 The role of identity and how marginalized communities face unique risks
 Abuse tactics like isolation, phone control, and manipulation disguised as "love"
 Why leaving an abusive relationship is far more complex—and dangerous—than it seems
 Steps to safely leave an abusive situation and how to seek support

Whether you're navigating a relationship, supporting a friend, or just want to be more informed—this is an essential conversation everyone should hear.

 Trigger Warning: This episode contains discussions about domestic violence, sexual assault, and manipulation, which may be distressing for some listeners.

In this candid and thought-provoking episode of Please Me, Eve sits down with Kels and Tess—creators of the Porn Nerds podcast miniseries and founders of Squirm—for a deeply honest conversation about porn, pleasure, and the role of communication in sexual education. Together, they dismantle the myth that porn is an accurate or sufficient source for sex ed and offer practical ways adults can build sexual confidence, curiosity, and connection outside the tube sites.

From navigating shame and stigma to setting boundaries in relationships (and throuples!), this episode explores how porn can be used as a tool for inspiration—but not a manual for real-life intimacy.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

Why porn is not a substitute for sexual education—and what is

How to communicate turn-ons and boundaries without awkwardness

The role of fantasy in enhancing solo and partnered sex

Why watching porn together can actually deepen connection

Ways to use desire as a conversation starter, not a point of conflict

How Kels & Tess built Squirm to destigmatize conversations around sex

In this episode of Please Me, Eve sits down with Robert Johnson, founder of Shameless Care, for a raw, eye-opening conversation about the serious gaps in standard STI testing — and how his personal experience sparked a much-needed revolution in sexual health care.

Robert shares how a routine STI panel — that came back negative — still left him unknowingly transmitting gonorrhea. That one moment revealed a much bigger problem in the way most doctors approach STI testing, especially when it comes to oral and asymptomatic infections. Together, Eve and Robert dive deep into:

Why “full panel” testing often isn’t full at all

The shocking truth about oral gonorrhea and how often it’s missed

How the swinger and ethically non-monogamous communities approach safe sex — and where they fall short

The stigma, controversy, and misunderstanding around herpes testing

How Shameless Care is filling critical gaps left by traditional medical care

The conversations we should be having with our partners before becoming sexually active

PLUS: Robert shares valuable free resources that can help you advocate for comprehensive STI testing with your own doctor, even if you can’t afford full at-home kits.

Summary:

In this unapologetically bold episode, Eve dives headfirst into one of the most critical — and most censored — conversations surrounding women’s sexual health: abortion.

With Roe v. Wade overturned and reproductive rights under attack, it’s time to strip away the shame, silence, and political noise to get down to the facts. This episode is all about empowering women with real, practical information to protect their health, their choices, and their lives.

Inside this episode:
Why abortion is healthcare — not politics
The deadly risks of illegal abortions still happening worldwide
The difference between the morning-after pill and medical abortion pills
How safe medical abortion actually is (spoiler: 98% effective when done early)
Why bodily autonomy is non-negotiable
How you can take action to protect your rights and support others

Whether you’ve faced this decision personally, know someone who has, or simply believe in protecting women’s bodies and freedom, this episode gives you the knowledge you need — without shame or sugarcoating.

Because when it comes to women’s health, Big Clit Energy means knowing your options, owning your power, and refusing to stay silent.
