Consent, Connection, and Conscious Pleasure: A Real Conversation with Saurora Grace
On this episode of “What Are You Even Talking About?” we take a deeper route—into self-discovery, embodied connection, and the strange, powerful idea of the perpetual present: that lived reality is always happening “now,” even when our nervous system is stuck replaying the past or rehearsing the future.I’m joined by Saurora Grace—a sex, intimacy, kink, and tantra educator—who brings expertise, clarity, and a grounded approach to topics that are often either sensationalized or avoided entirely. Together, we explore presence as more than a mindset: how the body holds memory, how intimacy can become a mirror...

Mental Health and Relationship Dynamics ft. Mariel Anderson
In this episode, I sit down with Mariel Anderson—Founder and Executive Producer of the Shine Foundation of Artistic Expression—for a conversation that does what we do not do nearly enough: speak plainly about mental health without shame, without posturing, and without pretending men are unaffected.Mariel helps break the silence and brings real insight into how men can improve relationship dynamics—through emotional literacy, honest communication, healthier boundaries, and accountability that does not collapse into self-hatred. This is not a lecture and it is not “fix yourself” culture. It is a candid dialogue about what it takes t...

Questioning Relationships: Interview with Dr. Breanna Reeser
On this episode of “What Are You Even Talking About?” I’m joined by Dr. Breanna Reeser for a conversation that cuts through the performative noise and gets honest about relationships—online and in real life.We start with the social media problem: how easy it is to confuse visibility with credibility, and how damaging “confident but wrong” advice can be when people are trying to make serious decisions about their hearts, families, and futures. From there, we move into what actually builds connection—authenticity, accountability, and real communication—not curated perfection.This episode is about redefining...

Transformative Talks: Exploring Trauma, Mental Health, and Spirituality with Ingrid H. Turner

Turner—spiritual teacher, author, and minister—as we explore the kind of healing journey that does not just change a person, but quietly changes the world through them.In this episode, we talk about what it really means to heal: how trauma shapes identity, how mental health challenges can distort our relationship with reality, and how spirituality—when approached with discernment—can become a stabilizing framework rather than an escape hatch.

Strong Songs
"Babylon Sisters" by Steely Dan
Here comes that Santa Ana wind again, blowing us right into the slightly skewed world of Steely Dan.It was never a question whether Strong Songs would do a Steely Dan episode, it was more a question of which song to focus on. In the end, Kirk chose "Babylon Sisters," a culmination of the band's incredible 1970s run that exemplifies Fagen and Becker's brand of pristine, laser-focused groove. It's also arguably the definitive recording of Bernard Purdie's signature Purdie Shuffle.Written by: Walter Becker and Donald FagenAlbum: Gaucho (1980)Listen/Buy...

Total Movie Recall
TMR 045 – Labyrinth
This week on Total Movie Recall, Steve and Ryan put on their codpieces and fret over the innocence of teenage girls around David Bowie. Don’t get us wrong, we love this movie, but why does this charming children’s tale have a character named after the part of the anatomy responsible for transporting sperm? And why do so many sequences resemble sperm? And if all of these things are symbols for sperm, what does the Bog of Eternal Stench represent? We shudder to think… Labyrinth (1986) d. Jim Henson w. Terry Jones
