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. Visit americansexpodcast.com & sunnymegatron.com for more. New Episodes every Monday. Stream all episodes below! |

What does it mean to be a switch in
BDSM? This week Queen Ana Algos brings us into the world of
switching. We talk about switch erasure--some people think switches
don’t exist, they’re just confused doms and subs that haven’t
picked a side yet, or that they aren’t really good at topping or
bottoming because their heart is never really in it. Ana busts
these myths and a lot more. Learn about switch drop, why cis men have a
harder time indulging their switchy side, how to overcome switch
imposter syndrome, plus we explore the ways kink education has
changed during COVID and answer the much-debated question, can
edgeplay safely be taught online?
