Lorina and Sean are back to business this week discussing the awkwardness of asking employers for raises. Sean provides his own insights and experiences as the "boss" (we know, he hates that word) in these uncomfortable situations. Looking to make things even more uncomfortable? How about when it comes time to ask your friends for money? Be sure to hit that play button and don't miss out on this week's episode!

Don't forget to follow us on Instagram @thesoapawkwardduo and on all of your podcast platforms! Got an idea for a show topic? DM us! We would love to hear from you.

Join us for the final part of the "Sex Series" where we explore our search history, our personal turn-ons/fetishes, and trying to find out what truly makes Lorinathan blush. We have had such a fun time having these conversations and bringing our listeners into the "room where it happened" or should we say bedroom? We've noticed this is a hot topic for a lot of our listeners and some people have written to us wanting to tell their sexual encounters. We hope to maybe bring another series in the future for y'all. Let us know what you think and slide into our DM's on Instagram: @thesoapawkwardduo

We stand by our promise of merch and giveaways...maybe even showing face, but we need you to share however you can so we can get to the podcast eligibility! :)

* Another warning for family of either Seanathan's or Lorinathan's to listen with caution, but to never speak of this ever.*

On our 10th episode of Starting Our Awkward Podcast, we smoothly transition from foreplay to the real deal: sex. Seanathan gets put on the spot for fetishes, but at least he knows what "tome" is now. Do you? Join us as we discuss certain kinks/fetishes, how to communicate with your partner, and so much more! Ever do the dirty in a public place? Listen in to see which one of us have. As always, we'll keep our DM's turned on for you... get it? We want to hear your fetishes, your porn searches/suggestions, and about how our podcast may have impacted you thus far.

Remember to subscribe to us on your listening platform and SHARE!

*Discretion is advised on this podcast...aka my brother who listens...don't talk to me about this or ever mention this episode.*

For all our other listeners to SOAP, get ready for an incredibly juicy episode about SEX!! We get a little deep, pun intended, and explore the need for communication in a relationship, the value of sex toys, and a really amazing company called Bellesa (GO BUY STUFF FROM THEM-you will not be disappointed). We also discuss the stigma and taboo of talking about sex and our hopes for it to evolve into a more open-minded discussion for others. While we discussed some of our points, we found that maybe this episode will be part one (foreplay) of a three part series. We promise it's only going to get juicier.....that's what she said.

@thesoapawkwardduo: Please slide into our DM's on Instagram and let us know your sex secrets or whatever you want to share. We are HERE to listen and discuss. If you're interested in coming on to chat with us, let us know...we love to make it even more awkward.

P.S. If you want a discount for the Bellesa store...maybe I can get us one. Let me know after you peruse the site.

Ladies and gentlemen, let's welcome back Seanathan!! We are so happy to have his awkwardness recording with us. We also are fortunate enough to have a special guest, our producer, Andrewnathan. Join us as we take the leap from accidentally taking the wrong medication, a variety of side effects, and Lorina's nifty sidekick: Walgreens Pharmacy Chat.

Let's all be honest, did you know heavy machinery meant a car? (When did you discover that's what they meant?)

Wow, can you believe that SOAP is now on their 7th episode? On this lucky number 7 episode, Lorinathan has a special guest: her fiance Andrewthan. For the first time and only time (kidding, maybe), Lorina and Andrew sit down and discuss some of their most awkward encounters when shopping. Whether it be for the unnecessarily stigmatized condoms or pregnancy tests, or just trying to pay for the items in your cart. We know that you will relate to a few of our stories. Could you imagine if registers had timers for how long you could stand there to collect your items and change? Why do we act like there is? And who hasn't been asked to give to charity, or a rewards card, or a TIMESHARE?! How do YOU handle it?

As mentioned in our episode, our love and thoughts are with Sean and his family during this incredibly difficult time. If you feel so moved to donate to a charity (no we're not making you do this at a cash register with all the pressure), please consider donating to Epilepsy Alliance Florida. Please message us on our Instagram and we will provide you with the direct link. We love you, Sean.

We are joined by a very special guest, Jamaika, on our sixth episode of Starting our Awkward Podcast. As promised, we deliver the "spreadeagle" story and divulge into even more awkward encounters from a mom's perspective. We also all wonder why the doctors have us undress while they are outside the room, but then come in when we are naked? Please help us understand this process. Lastly, if you listen closely you can hear one of those unfiltered child sightings right here in this episode.

Follow us on Instagram and direct message us some of your embarrassing stories as a mom, co-worker, employee, anything. We would love to hear it ALL!

In our fifth episode, we get a bit comfortable with the uncomfortable: public restrooms! Cringe along with us as we talk about personal and EMBARRASSING stories that we are sure you will relate to cause let's admit it, we have all had our fair share of bathroom emergencies at our local Target or Barnes & Noble. Maybe now when you head to your nearest public restroom, you'll begin a plan like Lorina, or maybe a new response when someone knocks! We can't wait to have Jamaika on our next episode or should we say "Jamaikathan"...you get it. See you then!

Find us on Instagram: thesoapawkwardduo and comment on our most recent post to let us know one of your awkward encounters in a restroom OR give us some topics you find awkward, we want to hear from YOU!

In the fourth episode, the awkward duo discusses the many awkward encounters surrounding birthdays and "meeting" people or meeting them again...They also discuss finding a table at a busy restaurant while also having to order your personalized meal with various awkward pressures surrounding them. Believe it or not, Lorina & Sean tap into their sentimental feelings followed by a huge twist of discussing a word even Lorina hates to utter. Head to our Instagram to vote later this week to let us know how often, if ever, you use that word.

In our third and longest episode (that's what she said?), we discuss Lorinathan's awkward dating encounters and how she has grown from them. You asked for the juicy details, and she sure does deliver! We also sneak in a rather unbelievable bet that we promise to make good on! We have a lot of other incredibly awkward dates to go through, but we want to be able to provide you with what we promised: awkwardness- through and through. We will sprinkle some more dating stories throughout our next episodes, but always want to make sure we are fulfilling our promise to keep things short, awkward, and sweet!
