Today's show features some juicy and complex correspondence from Susie's "Try This at Home" mailbag. There are two letters, both of which are from a married couple who want to change their monogamous relationship into an open marriage. They each sent Susie a letter separately, detailing their concerns and desires. You'll hear why the wife wants more, and then about the husband's excitement but nervousness about going from vanilla to raspberry chocolate pistachio and butter brickle with a cherry on the top.

On today's show, Susie looks at a common first-timer's fear: What does a virgin need to know about how sex "feels" versus how masturbation feels? Seems like some very worried newbies have performance anxiety about their first encounter. That's a good thing, says Susie, and she has some advice that her friend, sex expert Cory Silverberg, recently offered on About.com.sex: Keep exploring on your own. Having sex with yourself is a great warm-up act that can really prepare you. The bottom line is that masturbation is great and can help you find some great moves too!

Susie is ready to whet your appetite for the 10th anniversary of Best American Erotica. Susie talks with horror writer John Skipp about his marriage to porn starr Kelly Nichols and the connection between horror and erotica. In her mailbag, a testimonial from a woman who learned to love penetration.

Susie's in Boston this week with erotica and science fiction writer Cecilia Tan, whose books include Telepaths Don't Need Safe Words and Valderet. Cecilia is also the author of the erotic short story The Little Mermaid. Then, in her mailbag, Susie helps a woman who wants her boyfriend to talk dirty to her and another from a blind man who says he's worried he can't please his wife.

Susie has a show from 2014 for you to enjoy, featuring a juicy and complex epistle from her "Try This at Home" mailbag. Actually, there are two letters from a married couple who want to try an open marriage. They corresponded separately, detailing their concerns and desires. You’ll hear why the wife wants more, and then how the husband is excited but nervous about going from vanilla to raspberry chocolate pistachio and butter brickle with a cherry on the top.

Susie has a friend working at a Nevada brothel who has a way to niche market herself. She stands apart from all the other girls, because she's 55 years old. While all the other workers are much younger, Kim has the upper hand on experience, and she has had many jobs within the sex industry. Susie reads from Kim's blog about what it's like to work at the Love Ranch North.

If you've been "doxed", you know the dark side of the Internet. Doxing is gathering or hacking into someone's online account and using information without their knowledge. Susie talks about this unsavory practice, which can be a way to seek revenge. Many times it involves posting naked pictures of someone without their consent, possibly to a porn site. Susie finds this behavior to be another form of bashing women by using their sexuality against them. The sleaze factor here is very high.

Susie starts off today's show with a look at some recent weird sexual crimes that involved eating the victim's flesh. No, this is not S&M…. It's cannibalism. A man kills then eats his lover's buttocks. A homeless, nude man chews off another man's face. A college student kills and then dines on his roommate's brain and heart. What is going on?

Christian churches are coming to the rescue for some young women. But the old-fashioned advice they dole out on pornography may not be so helpful. Susie looks at a New York Times article about an evangelical group that promotes "victory" workshops against porn to end female members' addictions. They pray to be strong and not masturbate, they learn how to please their husbands instead of themselves, and they learn that their sexual habits are sinful. Banish you, evil porn! Begone! God has spoken!

This week we present the birth of a blue-movie critic. It's a look into how Susie went from being what Roger Ebert called an "innocent lesbian virgin" to the Pauline Kael of porn. She tells us about being hired by Penthouse Forum to write a pocket-sized journal focusing on sexy words rather than sexy pictures as she reviewed X-rated films. Our young Susie got a first-hand look into the world of porn movies, and oh what stories she has to tell!

Welcome to the "girl-talk" you thought you'd never hear in public! Susie (52) and Aretha Bright (19) are a mother/daughter team of columnists from Jezebel.com, whose readers flooded them with explicit dilemmas about sexual pleasures and disasters, body issues, dating, relationships, and young marriage. If you want cutting-edge sex advice that goes beyond pregnancy-and-disease-control - if you’re ready to hear family conversations about sex that are real and refreshing this is the book for you.

Susie is off this week, but wants you to enjoy a show from 2009. Today we feature an interview with a man whose job it is to pleasure women. Imagine what fun it is to be a vibrator designer. Here's a man who needs to know his product is not only functional but also sensational in all respects. Susie talks with Ethan Imboden, the founder and chief creative behind Jimmyjane, a company that believes "naughty is nice, sexy is smart, and pleasure is in the details."

Susie Bright is a sexual liberationist of the highest order. The Sexual State of the Union includes essays about dirty pictures and porn, lesbian marriage and lesbian murder, lesbian men and switching genders, vibrators, and the longevity of feminism. The writing is crisp, intelligent, and provocative; there is sure to be something that will make you cheer as well as something that will deeply offend you.

Today, Susie brings you Part 2 of her interview with writer Jillian Lauren, the author of Some Girls: My Life in a Harem. The secret is out; it's not an exotic and romantic lifestyle. In reality, a harem girl is more like a sex slave.

What do naked toddlers, TV's reality show The Bachelorette and premature ejaculations all have in common? They are topics up for discussion on today's show. And in our featured story, Susie looks at an article by fellow sexpert Cory Silverberg called "Why I Love Premature Ejaculation". What?

Susie spends the entire show with guest Daniel Bergner, whose book What Do Women Want? was on the New York Times best-seller list. The book is subtitled Adventures in the Science of Female Desire, and it disrupts the typical idea that women are more monogamous than men. Bergner's research also turns the tables on conventional thinking about women's desires and arousal.

Susie is off this week but wants you to enjoy a show from 2011. Today's show takes a quick look at why and how sex education has evolved in the United States. Susie reads from a Newsweek article on the subject by Johanna Cornblatt. Going back to the 1800s, we see the same worries about "evil" sex and plans to control the young, just like today's abstinence-only sex-ed. The article is full of strange and fun historical facts that warn about syphilis, prostitutes, the 1960s sexual revolution, and HIV/AIDS.

[Contains explicit content] Susie declares "Piss is the new black". In all the corners of the kinkdom, it's the golden haze. What's going on? Next, 22,000 women in South Korea take to the streets to protest spy cams - but it's not just Korea; this is a worldwide invasion of privacy.

Twenty-five years ago, Susie and a few feminist friends planned an unusual party: "Let's have men serve tea in the nude, and they can only speak to the women guests when spoken to." Sounds like a hoot, right? But wait - it also started a movement called CFNM (Clothed-Female-Naked-Man). Planning the party was fun! Who to invite? Who to select as the "slaveboys"? Susie recalls all the details of the infamous party.

Susie breaks from her usual format to tell you about her nearly life-long interest in former porn-star Linda Lovelace. Lovelace was the star of Deep Throat which was released around the time Susie was starting to wonder about sex. Her adolescent fascination evolved as Lovelace later denounced her porn-star days. And, in this show, Susie announces the rules of her new summer contest. Answer her three questions and you might win a FREE subscription to In Bed with Susie Bright!
