Sex is Good Podcast

ED meds not working? We explain why erectile dysfunction medications like sildenafil (Viagra) and tadalafil (Cialis) sometimes fail. Learn how food, dosing, timing, performance anxiety, and condom use can impact effectiveness. We also cover common mistakes men make with ED medication and what to do when ED treatment doesn’t work. This is a practical guide to understanding and fixing ED medication failure.

GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro are some of the most talked-about drugs in the world right now. But how do they actually work, and what’s really going on behind the scenes?
In this episode, we break down the science of GLP-1 receptor agonists in plain English, including how they affect appetite, insulin, gastric emptying, and long-term weight loss. We also review clinical trial data, real-world outcomes, and what happens when people stop taking these medications.
Then we go deeper into the part most people aren’t talking about: drug shortages, compounded GLP-1 alternatives, and the rapidly growing gray market. We explain how compounding pharmacies operate during FDA-declared shortages, what “copycat” or “bootleg” versions really are, and where the legal lines start to blur.
We also discuss recent FDA actions, enforcement trends, and the broader pharmaceutical landscape, including pricing, patents, and why these drugs have become such a massive financial battleground. From stock volatility to regulatory pressure, there’s more going on here than just weight loss.
If you’ve been hearing about GLP-1 drugs everywhere and want a clear, honest explanation of both the science and the controversy, this episode gives you the full picture.

Pickup artists are one of the most controversial subcultures in modern dating advice. Some people see them as manipulative. Others believe they uncovered real insights about confidence, attraction, and human psychology.
In this episode of the Sex is Good Podcast, we break down the pickup artist playbook and ask a simple question: is there anything normal, sex positive people can actually learn from it?
Topics we explore include:
• Confidence and approach anxiety
• Why initiating conversations is so hard for many 
• What pickup artists actually teach about attraction
• The difference between confidence and manipulation
• What healthy, sex positive dating advice should look like
Rather than mocking the community or blindly defending it, we take a thoughtful look at the pickup artist playbook and ask what lessons, if any, belong in the real world.
Because understanding how attraction works does not have to come at the expense of honesty, respect, or good sex.

Nearly 90% of all medications taken in the United States are generic drugs, and roughly 80% of those are manufactured overseas in countries like China, India, and Turkey.

But it was not always this way.

Before 1984, only about 10% of prescriptions were generic, and most medications were manufactured in the United States.

So what changed?

In this episode, we break down the history of generic drugs, the 1984 Hatch Waxman Act, and how global pharmaceutical manufacturing shifted from American factories to an international supply chain.

Understanding where your medications come from, how generics are approved, and how the global drug supply works matters more than most people realize.

Because whether you know it or not, almost everyone relies on this system.

Even when we are attending adult events professionally to discuss STI testing, sexual health, and public health policy, something surprising still happens.

Anna gets grabbed.

Butt slapped. Breasts touched. Boundaries crossed.

Sometimes in subtle ways. Sometimes in ways that are not subtle at all.

Why does this still happen in sex positive spaces where everyone claims to understand consent?

Today we unpack explicit verbal consent and examine whether popular frameworks like the F.R.I.E.S. model are actually practical in real world social settings.

FRIES stands for Freely given, Reversible, Informed, Enthusiastic, and Specific. It is widely taught in college campuses, kink communities, and sex education programs. But is it simple enough for people who believe they are already “good at consent”?

Here is the uncomfortable truth.

Most people believe they are masters at reading body language. Most people believe they are respectful. Most people believe they would never cross a line.

And yet lines keep getting crossed.

In this episode we discuss:

• Why consent violations still happen in sex positive communities
• The limits of enthusiastic consent in fast moving social environments
• The difference between explicit verbal consent and contextual consent
• Why being “experienced” does not mean being careful
• Whether frameworks like FRIES, RACK, and SSC actually translate to casual adult events
• Why professional environments do not magically create safer spaces

This is not an anti consent episode.

It is a realistic discussion about human behavior, ego, overconfidence, and the gap between theory and practice.

If you have ever thought, “I would never do that,” this episode is for you.

Because here is the kicker.

Everyone thinks they are good at consent.

Including you.
