When Sex Felt Like a Return Podcast: This is a conversational podcast exploring my essay When Sex Felt Like a Return from the book Ghosts of Sex. In the podcast we discuss the emotional pull of familiarity in intimacy, how recognition can feel like homecoming, the confusion between comfort and belonging, and the quiet ways repetition can shape connection. We explore the tension between ease and growth, the loyalty to shared history, and how returning to what feels known can both soothe and unsettle at the same time.
