The Bottom Bible

Upon special request from a special Bottom listener, we bring you a minisode all about handjobs. This minisode includes some audience participation in the form of an instagram poll asking our listeners if they are born to handjive or not. The results may shock you! 

P.S.

This was a late night minisode recording. Let us soothe you with our sleepy time voices.

Warning: SPOILERS! (If you haven't watched the series and still plan to, we recommend checking out a different BB episode until you've had a chance to catch up!) 

We were eager to watch Netflix's "Bonding" as soon as the series premiered on the streaming service. Since the show centers around so many parallel themes to our Podcast, we smelled a recap & review right off the bat! It's precious, progressive and hysterical. If you're comfortable with sexual themes, cum shots and sexually liberated characters - you should carve out some time to watch this series.

This week we had the pleasure of interviewing friend/listener of the podcast, Lex! Lex reached out to us via email and shared with us details about her Ethically Non-Monogamous marriage. We had a great conversation with Lex and learned so much about the "Monogamish" lifestyle. She was an absolute dream to interview and we know you're going to love her too!

In honor of Mental Health Awareness month, we continue our discussion around mental health with this pocket size Bottom! In this week's episode we unpack the five WORST things to say to someone coping with a mental illness. We'll also provide some tips and tricks on how to be encouraging rather than discouraging.

May is Mental Health Awareness month, we want to kick things off by discussing mental health and sexuality, specifically, OCD. Current estimates say that approximately 1 in 40 adults (roughly 2.3% of the population) have OCD, and very little research has been done about how the disorder and the medication often used to treat it affects sexuality. This week, we dove into some research about OCD, the SSRIs often prescribed to treat them, and Katy shares her own personal story.

Bangs: edgy fashion choice, or a cry for help? Who hasn't stood in front of the mirror and asked themselves, "Should I get bangs?" It's the ultimate Pandora's Box of hair, do you snip and chop with abandon and risk 18 solid months of an intense growing out phase OR living your hair's best life? Bangs continue to be a hot button hair issue... why?

 

The Bottom Bible is home to two sides of the bangs issue - there's bang queen Katy who has rocked them on and off since childhood, and Vanessa who has never dared to get fringed.

"Vous venez souvent ici?" in English translates to "Do you come here often?". We're taking a trip around the globe this week and discussing unique and interesting dating habits of singles around the world. As mutually self professed francophiles we spend a fair bit of time discussing the habits of the French but touch other European, African and Asian cultures. What's your dating style? You gotta tune in to find out.

Get our your cassette single of Cyndi Lauper's "She Bop" and get ready for some self love. This week's episode is about masturbation, everyone's doing it... or are they? We interviewed friend of the pod and professional masturbator Dan the Man who then flipped the script and wanted the dirty deets on our masturbation rituals. What are you waiting for?

This week we discuss the news that broke on March 18th, that the identity of Jack the Ripper may have finally been discovered. Vanessa reminisces about her Jack the Ripper walking tour and Katy's Sweeney Todd fantasies may have at last come true. Also discussed is the victimization of sex workers and individuals leading "high risk" lifestyles. Keep it short, keep it sweet, Jack the Ripper's down the street.
