On this episode, J.Mix gives all the "period tea" to her special penis-owning guests, Jamie Bernstein and Nicholas Flye. She opens the floor for Nick and Jamie to ask any question they had about the vagina-owning menstrual cycle. Together, they discuss biases, misinformation, concerns, curiosities, etc. held in the penis-owning communities about periods. J.Mix also reveals the story of her first period. And they wrap the whole convo up with... you guessed it: period sex.

On this week's two-part episode of TSAM, J.Mix is joined by William Howard to discuss white ally-ship and what it looks like from the perspective of a person of color. J.Mix addresses the confrontations she had with two white male followers on social media as well as the overflow of inspiration and support from her followers (Shout-out to Brandon Michael Nase and Frank Casabianca). Will discusses his upbringing and how he utilized his blackness to excel in childhood. Both discuss their ideal white-ally, and what they need to bring to the cookout in order to be respected by black folks. In Part Two, we will be joined by our second guest, Andy Bower, to discuss what white ally-ship looks like from the white perspective.
