What Is American Sex? 

This award-winning podcast is dedicated to changing America’s dysfunctional relationship with sex. Our sex lives are influenced by everything that makes us US--from our mental health to our relationships, politics, identity, and the shame our culture instills in us and relies on for control. Understanding how these things seep into our bedrooms makes all the kinky, pervy, weird stuff we’re secretly into seem not so weird after all. 

Hosts, Sunny Megatron & Ken Melvoin-Berg, are acclaimed Sex & BDSM Educators. They also co-created the groundbreaking Showtime Original Series, Sex with Sunny Megatron. Equal parts hilarious and informative, Sunny, Ken & their guests serve up real-talk about kink, polyamory, sexual ethics, and LGBTQIA+ subjects. From practical BDSM & sex tips to discussions about systematic repression of pleasure & sexual empowerment, each topic is approached with a lightheartedness that’s second to none. 

We believe Kink is Cutomizable, education is the new punk rock, the personal is political, tinkle-your-pants laughter is an anecdote to sexual shame, and that collectively we can subvert this backward-ass system by finding power in our pleasure.

To some, the term “social justice” is a dirty word. But to others, it means “basic human decency” and should be everyone’s default setting. When it comes to dating, relationships, sex, or navigating sexual sub-communities it’s important. It can make or break your dating and sex life. But how and why do things like race, gender, ability, size, etc, affect getting laid? Sex is just sex, right? Not necessarily. This week’s guest, Dirty Lola, explains why your dick (or whatever genitals you happen to have) should care about social justice.

Dirty Lola Sex EducatorGuest bio Dirty Lola is a storyteller, edutainer, sex educator, sex toy peddler, and the creator and host of the live sex Q&A and variety show and podcast Sex Ed A Go-Go. During the last six years, she has shared her distinctive brand of kickass body and sex-positivity and her personal journey into the kink and polyamorous lifestyles with the masses on and off stage. Lola has taken Sex Ed A Go-Go across the country from New York City to Los Angeles and beyond. She has presented at various conferences and expos such as Catalyst Con, Woodhull, The Sex Expo, and AVN, and during sex week at Baruch College, Hofstra University and the University of New Mexico. When she’s not hosting Sex Ed A Go-Go or teaching folks about pleasure, kink polyamory and sex positivity you can find her behind the counter at Shag, a sex shop in Brooklyn.
