[Contains explicit content] From 2008: Susie looks at how Black and inter-racial sex videos have evolved since the 1980s. The adult video boom thrives on bringing sexual secrets into America's bedrooms, capitalizing on taboo interests. With titles like Black Chicks Do It Better and In and Out of Africa, these porn movies presented themes that at the time seemed risky but soon became the norm. Susie's investigative reporting examines why racism penetrated the porn industry.

On this week's In Bed, Susie looks at Prince's explosive, erotic legacy in music, kink, and fashion. Prince brought lust, masturbation, and yearning into a new generation's bedroom, and now his devastated fans look back in awe.

Susie starts off today's show with a labyrinth of ethical questions concerning a caregiver and a client falling in love. A professor of ethics at Rutgers University became involved with a severely disabled man while she was working with him. He could not speak, and she used "facilitated communication" - keyboard typing, with physical assistance from the professor - as a way for him to communicate. She thought they were falling in love. But his family thought differently.

Susie brings you today's show from London. And while the English may have a reputation for being well-mannered and stiff-lipped, Susie has found some very open-minded and racy Brits to talk to. First up is an interview with Dr. Petra Boynton, one of Britain's top sex educators. Petra and Susie have a lot in common, and their discussion starts out with looking at the double-standard when it comes to women watching porn.

This just in from the BBC…The Orgasmatron! It is what it sounds like: a small machine that can give you endless pleasure. So why don't we all have one? Susie takes a look at the story, the device, and the doctor who invented it. The gadget, which gets wired to the spine, was developed for helping people with chronic pain, but some patients experienced intense sexual stimulation while they were hooked up. Wow, what a way to get rid of all those horrible aches and pains!

What is the evolutionary purpose of a woman's orgasm? On today's show, Susie ponders this question and looks at a wired.com article that called the female O a "mystery". If an orgasm isn't necessary to procreate, why does it exist biologically? Men need an orgasm to produce semen, so the science makes sense, but what about women? Is the fairer sex entitled to pleasure just for a bonus, for fun and feeling good? So many questions… but here comes Susie to the rescue.

Susie is totally enamored by a blog called The Honest Courtesan, written by Maggie McNeil, and we feature an interview with her today.

Susie breaks down the political scandal of the year: Alabama Governor Robert J. Bentley's sordid affair and resignation. Who knew voting rights could be so kinky?

Butler's Parable of the Sower is the warning, and the hope, we need right now.

Susie's guest this week is Esther Perel, author of the bestselling, Mating in Captivity: Reconciling the Erotic and the Domestic.

Every parent's pride and joy over having a baby also ushers in a whole new dynamic in the bedroom. When do we have sex? How do we have any privacy? And as the kids get older, what sexual sensibilities will we impart to my kids? Susie recently held a workshop for moms and dads to talk about how they are raising their kids versus how their parents raised them. They looked at how religion, boundaries, and freaking out all play into family dis/function.
