  • Introducing Sh*t Show - A New Podcast!

    Hey 'Splainers! We'd like to introduce you to Sh*t Show, a new podcast produced by hubs of the pod, Ian, and featuring our very own Rae! If you love movies and learning about the behind-the-scenes shenanigans that make them happen, then this is the show for you. Check it out!


    Making stuff is hard, especially in the entertainment world when there are millions of dollars on the line. And we are going to talk about these disastrous, never ending, and sometimes dangerous productions. With video documentaries on YouTube and this companion conversational podcast, Sh*t Show is an entertaining look at some of your favorite films and tv shows and why they were a pain to make.

  • E50: Healthsplaining

    In the penultimate episode of The Womansplaining Podcast, The ‘Splainers are joined by “J” - a nurse practitioner at Planned Parenthood. He’s here to help us answer all your questions about women’s health, birth control, and the various services offered by their clinics. Sheryl also gets a lesson about men’s health and what the phrase “shooting blanks” actually means (Hint: Men, your balls won’t actually explode if you get a vasectomy!) We also discuss the misconceptions, stigma, and funding cuts faced by Planned Parenthood and how you can get involved if you’re as passionate about reproductive health as we are! Their services are for everyone and literally help save lives, so please consider donating.

    Visit https://www.plannedparenthood.org/ to see how you can get involved!

  • E49: Don't You Know That You're Toxic?
    Well, we’ve done our research and are back, along with special guest Collette, to discuss the hard-to-define topic of Toxic Femininity. There are many definitions floating around online which touch on the topics like manipulative fragility, weaponized sexuality, and internalized misogyny. We discuss each of the themes and then share the definition that we like best. Then Collette ends the episode with a rant about the Myth of Virginity.

  • E48: Let's Talk About Sex

    Let’s talk about sex, baybeeee! This week the ‘Splainers are joined by Collete, a licensed clinical social worker and sex-therapist-in-training, who is here to answer all your question about *ahem* the “s word.” First, we ask what exactly is sex therapy? Then we talk about common hangups, intimacy, keeping things spicy in the bedroom (or not), overcoming shame culture, and not self-objectifying during sex. Oh, and we figure out what the lady version of blue balls is called. You don’t want to miss this one!

  • E47: Back to the Basic Bitches

    What does it mean to be “basic”? Why does liking fall, sweaters, Uggs, and hay rides mean you’re basic? Why should you hide your pumpkin spice latte addiction from your friends and family?


    In this week’s episode, The Splainers take a quiz to find out how basic they truly are and discuss ways that you can maximize your fall with all the best and most basic activities. Don’t worry, you can be as basic as you want with us. You do you, girl.

  • E46: Finally! A New Episode

    We’re back for season three, baybeees! That’s right, The Official Podcast of Drinking Wine in the Tub is back! We’ve got new segments, new questions, new shenanigans, and brand new sh*t we bought on Instagram to tell you about! We cover some news about the Equal Rights Amendment (Thanks, Jessica!) and then answer “Why is it not ok to ask a lady her age?”


    And in our new segment, “Sh*t You Should Buy,” Sheryl talks about the boob stickers she bought on Instagram and Melissa gushes about her new best friend The Bloody Buddy Cup.

  • E45: No Scrubs

    This week we’re joined by Sheryl’s friend Nikki and answering questions about dating, relationships, and lerrrrv. How much independence is too much or too little in a potential partner? How can you tell the difference between love and infatuation? And how dateable is a guy who lives with his parents? Our answer is courtesy of TLC’s “No Scrubs”


    Nikki brings us a harrowing Mansplaining Moment about breastfeeding and Rae rants about men saying “we’re pregnant.” Bro, no you are not.  

    P.S. You've probably been missing our regular postings, and that's because we are on a hiatus for the summer. We'll be back at you in the fall with season 3 of TWP! Miss you already!

  • E44: The Glass Curtain

    This week we are joined by local actor (and Melissa’s college friend), Mara, to talk about sexism and misogyny in the arts. We discuss type casting, the lack of meaty roles for women, how men write female characters, the “casting couch,” and some #MeToo moments for good measure!


    We also have a things-stuck-in-vaginas follow-up and a brilliant Mansplaining moment from two of our listeners.

    Oh, also, we talk a lot about Keanu Reeves and we know he totally listens, so… hey, girl, we loved you in Much Ado About Nothing.

    This week The ‘Splainers are joined by local SLC drag queen Mona Diet to answer all your questions about the art of Drag! Mona helps us tackle questions about performance styles, pronouns, makeup and fashion, tucking, and the gender spectrum. And remember, if you have any more questions about sexuality or gender, Google is always there for you. She never sleeps and she doesn’t care how dirty you ask!
