Hollywood has never been shy about sex—although what filmmakers could show, suggest, or even talk about has changed dramatically over the decades! This week on Tales From Hollywoodland, the crew turns up the heat as they discuss some of the best, steamiest, and most provocative movies about sex, romance, desire, and relationships in Hollywood history.

From the suggestive sophistication of classic Hollywood movies to the boundary-pushing films that challenged censorship and changed what audiences could see on screen, we explore how sex in the movies has evolved alongside American culture. The guys share their favorite films, memorable performances, controversial moments, and the movies that weren’t afraid to make audiences a little uncomfortable—or perhaps loosen their collars.
It’s a fun, frank, and occasionally naughty journey through Hollywood film history, exploring how filmmakers have used sexuality to create comedy, drama, romance, suspense, and some truly unforgettable cinema.

So, dim the lights, grab some popcorn, and join Tales From Hollywoodland as we talk about Hollywood’s sexiest movies. Don’t worry—we’ll try to keep it classy. Try.

We want to hear from you! Feedback is always welcome. Please write to us at [email protected], and why not subscribe and rate the show on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeartRadio, PlayerFM, Pandora, Amazon Music, Audible, and wherever fine podcasts are found.

This week, we’re on a second contact mission, revisiting Star Trek: Enterprise Season 3, Episode 9 “North Star,” now that Maria and Jamie have watched it. Also, we’re joined by Ryan Consell, author of the Stealing from Wizards series! 

We all agreed that this episode was trying to say… something, but what it was trying to say was weird! We also do a deep dive into the episode name “North Star” and whether it comes from the name of Frederick Douglas’ anti-slavery newspaper, as Memory Alpha claims, or if they actually stole it from a 90s made-for-tv movie of the same name. 

A word of warning: If you haven’t listened to the episode before this one, “The Good, The Bad and the Skagly!,” go listen to that first because this is a follow up to last week.

About 5 years ago I got to know the incredibly talented artist Juana Sawyer, a.k.a. “Call Me Moose Almighty” after finding her hilarious pencil-drawn animatic-style videos on TikTok. Since then I have commissioned a few pieces from her, mainly of her interpretations of my OCs “Dienne & Darius” who she has become a big fan of. She kindly accepted my invitation to be a guest on the podcast, where we talked about our experiences developing our art styles, the-little-movie-that-could “Coyote Vs. Acme”, and Moose completely dodging admitting that she has a gigantic crush on Donatello from “Rise Of The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles”. Hopefully someday, we’ll actually meet in person, as soon as my ACME Trans-Continental Portal Generator arrives in the mail. What could go wrong? [Legal disclaimer: Everything could go wrong.]
