-For adults only- Pansexual polyamorous kinkster, proud slut, and PhD sociologist Julie Fennell discusses some of the things near and dear to her heart and overanalytical brain. Expect lots of in-depth and highly opinionated discussions about her areas of professional expertise like gender and sexuality, along with plenty of content on sex and relationships, polyamory, BDSM, and the wild world of artistic rope bondage (shibari). Some episodes are solo, and many are duo/interviews. This podcast is what happens when an academic goes rogue!
