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.

Kara Cooney, Egyptologist: Lessons from our Past - ep 35

Apr 2, 2018

Kara Cooney is an Egyptologist whose work can be seen on the Discovery Channel and in museums around the world. What the heck does that have to do with the sexual climate here in the US? A LOT. History repeats itself, right? Political structure and patriarchal sexism in ancient Egypt draw surprising parallels to what’s going on here in America--even down to the authoritarianism and pu$$y grabbing in the white house. We top off the episode with sexy hieroglyphics, hand jobs & semen salads (how’s that for a happy ending?!). Ken & Sunny give the secret word for their April PeepShowToys.com giveaway (there’s TWO giveaways this month!) & dive way too deep into Willy Wonka.
