Sex and Psychology Podcast review

Justin Lehmiller’s podcast gives me enough detail in the show notes to choose an episode before pressing play. The archive puts the date, guest and questions together. That’s handy when I’m looking for one conversation and the episode titles only tell half the story.

Two episodes about how people talk to each other

Episode 547, with Eve Rickert, asks how rules, agreements and boundaries differ in nonmonogamous relationships. Episode 551, with Shafia Zaloom, is about what makes conversations about intimacy feel awkward and how partners can make it easier to speak up. I’d start with 547 if the question was about making an agreement, and 551 if the hard part was starting the conversation.

On Savage Lovecast, listeners’ calls are the starting point. Lehmiller builds episodes like these around one subject and one invited guest. I’d choose by whether I wanted to hear a particular dilemma or spend a whole episode on the subject.

Find an episode to take with you

The site’s Latest Episodes section is where the dates and guest notes sit. Look for Load More below the latest entries if you’re after an older conversation. The Listen & Subscribe links above the archive go to Apple Podcasts, Spotify and Amazon Music. Once I’ve found the right episode on the site, I’d look for its number in my usual app.

Anabel’s take

I’d give the question list a minute before committing to a full episode. Two titles can sound like they cover the same ground. The notes show whether I’m about to hear a discussion of what to agree on or how to bring it up in the first place.
