Sex in Space

For today’s episode, Toshi sat down with Dr Jane Cherrington from the Sex in Space team, to talk about a new book that we’re releasing. It’s coming out this January 19th – it’s called ‘How to talk with your kids about porn’. It's going to be available in print form from Amazon, or you’ll also be able to grab a downloadable PDF copy from our website at sexinspace.com. Dr Jane was one of the researchers and writers for this book, so I spoke with her bit more about it – where the idea came from, why it matters, what readers can expect, and what she’s learned.
