Showing results by narrator "Susie Bright" in All Categories

Have you heard about the Christian Evangelicals' "soulgasm"? It's an orgasm that is God-given when you play by all the religious right's rules. Doesn't sex that is sanctioned by the Almighty sound too good to be true? Susie has a lot to say about this and all the contradictions presented by the holier-than-thou crowd. Today's show features an interview with Dagmar Herzog, author of Sex in Crisis: The New Sexual Revolution and the Future of American Politics.

Susie has a new crush and she's fallen hard for Chelsea Girl, the women behind the very hot Pretty Dumb Things blog. Susie wants to share Chelsea Girl's "9 Steps to Deep-Throating a Cock". Trust us, these fall into the category of hottest and most practical tips you've heard in a long time. Then, in the mailbag, Susie offers some advice to a man who recently started wondering if his single orgasm wife is missing out.

Susie is off this week, but wants you to enjoy an episode from 2007. In this show Susie was reading a midwife's blog (observantmidwife.blogspot.com), and she came across a topic you don't hear much about: How being obese changes a woman's vagina and sexual response. The post generated lots of comments, ranging from obese women who say their partners love their soft feel to others who offer practical tips for common obstacles.

Susie reads from an erotic fable that will surely keep us all in the holiday spirit. Pulitzer Prize-winning author Robert Olen Butler has written a tale about what happens when a husband is reincarnated into a parrot and his wife goes shopping for a Pretty Polly.

This week, Susie has some advice for the ages: "Don't leave your plastic penis in the middle of the road!" Also, we'll hear about a Middle Eastern country where selling porn actually takes some nerve. Plus in this week's "Try This At Home" mailbag, Susie gives advice on how to tell nosey (but well-meaning) friends to mind their own business when it comes to your relationships, and a man with multiple sclerosis says he's "shut down" sexually since his diagnosis.

Susie's good friend Ducky Doolittle has a new book out, Sex with the Lights On and Susie wants to celebrate by reading some passages. Ducky reveals the real secret to becoming hyper-orgasmic and how sex saved her live. Then, in Germany, some prostitutes are making their way from johns to geriatrics as they train to care for the elderly. Finally, in the Try This at Home mailbag, Susie is a little suspicious when she gets a letter from a man who says he can't watch porn because it offends him.

Susie kicks off her NYC interview series with a two-part interview with journalist Debbie Nathan. Debbie is the expert on sex scandals and is perhaps best known for her book, Satan's Silence: Ritual Abuse and the Making of a Modern American Witch Hunt about some of the widely covered sex panic cases that rocked the U.S. in the '80s and '90s, such as the McMartin daycare case in California. Debbie makes a case for why more people, not less, should be allowed to view child pornography on the Intenet.

Susie says while the drug companies are scrambling to offer pills, creams and sprays to fix all sort of sexual dysfunction, when it comes to premature ejaculation, she says the term itself doesn't make any sense. She says the proper question is "Premature for whom?" and it's worth thinking about some ways to reframe even that question. Then, female listeners respond to Susie's sex survey questions with some surprising answers. And, for the Try This at Home mailbag, Susie has a question for YOU!

Susie begins today's show with a look into a bizarre spectacle: the subplot surrounding Miss USA and Miss California. This story has gay secrets, missing breast implants, biblical quotations and topless Internet pictures. The recent Miss California finalist, Carrie Prejean, seems to be leading a double life.

Susie's guest this week is Ian Kerner, the best selling author of Be Honest - You're Not that Into Him Either and She Comes First. With years of personal and clinical experience between them, Susie and Ian debate the sexual dilemmas facing women and men these days - everything from dating, marriage, porn, and much, much more. Then, Susie and Ian tackle a mailbag question from a woman who says she feels like her sex life is just one big performance.

You'd think that the U.S. Department of Justice might have better things to do with their time these days, but Alberto Gonzales et al have recently initiated several busts of porn-related Web sites. And, if the investigation itself wasn't baffling enough, the sites they've targeted don't make legal sense. This week, Susie takes a look at some of the targeted sites. Then, in the Try This at Home mailbag, Susie helps a listener put the pieces back together after the perfect three-way blows up.

This week, Susie takes a look at the surprising sexual politics of the governors in Alaska and South Carolina. Susie discusses "caribou Barbie", who said "I quit", as well as the lovesick southern Bubba who said, "I'm staying" - even though many want him out. Susie has some unusual takes on why these two leaders find themselves in such freakish situations.

Today's show starts off with a serious look at the connection between dominance and pleasure. S&M followers understand and willingly participate in erotic role playing, but what about those military men and women involved in torturing prisoners? Are they sexual sadists too? Susie talks about how the military's torture training changed a friend from peace lover to aggressive dominator. And what does this all say about Abu Ghraib? Next, Susie reviews the reviews: what are the best positions for sex?

It's every parent's nightmare: talking about sex with your teenager. Susie and her daughter are beyond that scary conversation; instead they recently had the chance to together give out sexual advice on the popular blog Jezebel.

Susie speaks with the DC Madam, Deborah Jeane Palfrey. Palfrey's escort business called Pamela Martin Services made the headlines after being busted by the US Government. Palfrey alleged that her clients included many Beltway personalities, including the State Department official Randall L. Tobias who then resigned after admitting he used her service. Deborah Jeane tells Susie about her teenage years, how she coached her working girls to be safe, and why she still believes in love.

Susie Bright, the host of In Bed with Susie Bright, wants to read you some of her favorite dirty stories. In this collection of eight stories, you'll hear reminiscences of sex past from Tsuarah Litsky, in transit encounters from Nell Carberry, an updated Beauty and the Beast tale from Claire Tristram, as well as stories from Jess Wells, Alma Marceau, and Ernie Conrick. Almost all of these stories originally appeared in the annual Best American Erotica collection, edited by Susie Bright.

Today, Susie looks at sex workers who inject drugs. That's two taboos rolled into one! Susie reads an article from a blog that interviewed both men and women escorts about their drug use. This very frank and honest discussion will debunk some stereotypical thinking - for example that it's having to engage in sex for a living that turns people into addicts. They say no. They don't mind the sex work; it's just that they like drugs. This in-depth article covers brothels, self-medication, Johns who pay with drugs instead of cash, alcohol abuse, and sex workers' rights.

It's that time again: time to look at sex in the movies from 2011. Susie finds that Hollywood had a mostly celibate year. So what happened? Susie thinks the mainstream left all the good, juicy stuff to porn and indie filmmakers. But she remembers a few great scenes from last year that involved Ryan Gosling and his incredible abs, and Kristen Dunst baring it all. Now that was hot!

Susie has a New Year's resolution list like nothing you've seen before. Forget about losing weight or being nicer to your mother-in-law. Her list is about SEX. Susie shows us how to be more erotic, have better fantasies, and to allow your sensuous side to have fun. Let's ring in a healthy sexy New Year.

Susie's guest is Jen Sincero, author of the hilarious and wise The Straight Girls' Guide to Sleeping with Chicks. Jen and Susie share notes on the thrills of sleeping with women and offer tips on how you too can make your sexual fantasies a reality. Then, in the mailbag, Jen Sincero sticks around to help Susie with a letter from a man who says he'd do just about anything to help his wife get in touch with her sexual fantasies.
