MAJORLY NSFW: Kathleen has discovered a new genre of audio erotica called 'audio porn' and she's excited to share her new discovery with Bethany in a guided masturbation threesome. Tristian, a hot British man, makes loves to the ladies on a private beach. Then, since the “Cats” trailer and “The Irishman” are forcing the uncanny valley on everyone, Bethany takes a deeper dive into where exactly the uncanny valley begins (and all of the creepiness you can find down there). Buckle up, friends!
