We are on a roll for all-time fangirl moments! In this episode we
interview podcast icon Dan Savage of the Savage LoveCast! We learn
all about the changes in the field of human sexuality Dan has
witnessed as a sex columnist since the 90’s (and podcaster since
2006), as well as his thoughts on the ever-shifting language around
sex, gender and orientation. We also explore various terms in his
latest book Savage Love From A to Z including DTMFA, Fuck First,
GGG, Monogamish, secret perving, and why Dan's top sex and
relationship advice is to ask your partner “What are you into?”.
