For an internet professional, I’m not really into a lot of the bells and whistles available on ‘teh interwebz.’
In fact until a few weeks ago, I had never subscribed to a podcast. I just didn’t think I could ever get into it. Too much work for too little payoff.
But that all changed a few months ago when a kinky friend recommended the Savage LoveCast. These days I am positively obsessed.
The podcast is call-in advice show about sex, kink, and relationships. It’s hosted by gay sex advice columnist Dan Savage. One of the things I love about the podcast is that gay callers are highly disproportionately represented. Holla!
Dan’s attitude can be abrasive, and he says some things that are unpopular with Disney-style romantics. For example, Dan is sometimes okay with a person having sexual needs met outside of that person’s relationship, and he’s blatantly disenchanted with mainstream religion. If I had to summarize his attitude with an analogy, I would say that Dan Savage is to sex advice what Penelope Trunk is to career advice.
(There’s also a regular column on the website in case the podcast doesn’t whet your appetite.)
So sign up, subscribe, tune in, whatever, and then let me know what you think.
And it goes without saying, Savage Love is NOT safe for work (unless you have a very chill boss).
