A Tortured Orgasm: Heated Rivalry, Episode 4. Oh yeah, and All About Love Chapter 9
About this episode
Amy & Tommy's obsession with Ilya & Shane may be overshadowing their deep dive into All About Love by bell hooks. But they push on, overlaying this seminal text over the cultural reality of 2026. After all, love is love. And apparently, sex is sex. And always hot. Except when it's not. Listen to the end for a look into the Olympics and "Crotchgate."
Magnificent Sex by Peggy J. Kleinplatz, Ph.D. and A. Dana Ménard, Ph.D.
