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.

Polly Superstar is a sex culture
revolutionary and she’s also our guest on episode 168 of American
Sex Podcast. Over the last 14 years her legendary event, Kinky
Salon, has spread to 16 cities around the world. Some describe it
as a sex party but it’s actually so much more—theatrics, erotic
exploration, an opportunity to embrace ridiculousness in the safe
container of creativity and community, to name a few. Each event is
thoughtfully crafted with intention, accountability, inclusivity at
the center. Polly tells us how it all started—from the underground
fetish clubs of London to San Francisco and beyond--and where it’s
going now that lockdowns dominate our lives. Plus learn how Pervy
Activity Liaisons keep consent and safety concerns in check, about
the allure of alien mating ritual contests, and how the Kinky Salon
community has thrived through the pandemic thanks to Polly’s
innovative use of closed social channels.
