1. 2.26 - Z is for Zones, erogenous 03.12.2023 (01:46:51)

   Our final episode of season 2 is all about Zones (the erogenous kind). This week our format is a little different. Instead of our usual 'extensive research', we take you through nearly every erogenous zone we and the internet can think of and tell you our own personal feelings about them. We then discuss our zones-related film, which this time is 'The Piano!' It was intense we loved, but we loved it (and keep away from the darker aspects of it in our discussion). THANK YOU for coming on our journey with us this far, and stay tuned for future projects! TW: There are no specific trigger warnings for this episode.

2. 2.25 - Y is for Youth03.12.2023 (01:22:58)

   In our penultimate episode we turn our minds back to our younger and less experienced days and discuss the tumultuous world of sex and relationships from the perspective of 'the youth'. It's not all anecdotal of course. We do our usual 'extensive research' and find out what the youth of today think about it all, as well delving a little into relationships with large age gaps. This week's youth-related film is 'Everybody's Talking About Jamie'. We probably won't be talking about it much in the future, but there were some things we liked about it!

3. 2.24 - X is for XXX Live Show!29.09.2023 (01:33:05)

   It is finally time to release our A to Z LIVE SHOW!! In this first ever collaboration with the absolutely incredible Glitter & Titter Cabaret, we welcome special guests April Fiasco and Gigi Vin Rouge! Gigi is a stand-up comedian and burlesque artist combining sex and statistics like they've never been combined before. Sextistics if you will. April Fiasco is the showgirl alter-ego of comedian Carmen Ali. A regular on the London Cabaret scene, she is resident host at Sexquisite Events & Co-organiser at Socialist Strip Club Cybertease. She has been featured by TimeOut, The Guardian, and the BBC, and has a whole host of awards and accolades to her name, including finalist at Burlesque Idol 2019, and LGBTQ New Comedian of the Year 2019. From threesomes to sx work, to the tragic absence of foreplay, she has a lot of stories to tell... Of course, no Glitter n Titter show would be complete without compere extraordinaire, Gemma Layton, and the one who makes it all happen, the indomitable Ms Larissa Thorne! There are songs, games, burlesque acts (audio only), and a lot of 'dirty talk' stories from us and our guests. We had so much fun doing this episode, and we hope you have (almost) as much fun listening! Extra special thanks go to: Tom the Tech, who has a couple of voice cameos and is the reason you can hear us at all; Stormina Teacup, who you won't hear, but who was making sure the show ran smoothly with her incredible stage management skills; our fabulous photographer @corsmedia; and our magnificent audience who made the show the success that it was! We would also like to thank and pay tribute to two friends of the podcast who passed away this year: Trixi Tassels was a friend and mentor to us both and was in the audience for our live show. We wouldn't be the performers, or people, we are without her, and her support meant so much to us. Flavio Buonerba was not in the audience, but we would never have had the courage to put on a live show without his encouragement. He generously shared his time and expertise recording and editing some episodes of our show, even guesting on episode X of series 1. The show would not be the calibre it is without him and we will always remember and love him for that.

4. 2.23 - W is for With Benefits (friends)27.08.2023 (01:23:27)

   This week is all about friendships and relationships that come with added 'benefits'. We discuss the pros and cons of a typical 'with benefits' type setup, and explore what the 'benefits' actually are - is it just sex, or is there more to it? Can you, in fact, have a non-sexual friendship with benefits? We also look back fondly on our own 'with benefits' friends of the past. This week's 'with benefits' related film is 'Y tu mamá también' directed by Alfonso Cuarón. We thought it was an excellent representation of these types of relationship, which navigates a beautiful line between humour and pathos. TW: There are no specific trigger warnings, but the film discussion touches on the topic of terminal illness, in case anyone's feeling particularly sensitive to that right now.

5. 2.22 - V is for Vulva26.07.2023 (01:28:15)

   Episode P was devoted to Penis, so it's only right that episode V should be all about the Vulva! And we're not alone, as joining us this week is the lovely professional hula-hooper and graphic designer, Beth! As we vivaciously vocalise about various things vulvic, we learn about similarities (and differences) in the arousal of different genitals, and discover that the vulva-owners among us know shockingly little about vulvic anatomy. Our vulva-related film this week was Park Chan-Wook's 2016 film, The Handmaiden. The overall consensus was that we loved it, and were generally happy with the vulvic representation.

6. 2.21 - U is for Underrated09.06.2023 (01:07:32)

   This week is all about celebrating the things that don't get enough attention - i.e. the sexually, sensually, and romantically Underrated! Based on the anecdotes and experiences of their social circle, Raphael and Jacinta look at the sex and relationship related experiences that are overlooked, but delightful none-the-less, be it a touch of the waist, a caress of a leg, or a comfortable silence. This week's Underrated-related film is Gilda, because *that* glove peel... There are no trigger warnings this week!

7. 2.20 - T is for Turn-ons 02.06.2023 (01:38:25)

   Last season episode T was devoted to Turn-offs, so we thought it only right that this season T should be all about Turn-ons! We look at top turn-ons in America and Western Europe, as well as unlikely places to be turned and unusual things to be turned on by. We obviously talk all about out own turn-ons, and how we discovered them, and discuss the sexiest scents. Our film of the week is Happiness, an exploration of problematic and stigmatised turn-ons. This bit is full of trigger warnings, so listen to the film discussion with caution.

8. 2.19 - S is for Situationships12.04.2023 (01:18:50)

   This episode is all about that previously indefinable type of relationship, The Situationship. With a lot of help from the glossy mags (and a lot of wading through the heteronormative monogamous agenda), Raphael and Jacinta work out what a 'situationship' actually is, and discuss whether they have ever had one. They look at the pros and cons of a situationship and conclude that (surprise, surprise) it all comes down to communication, really. The situationship related film up for discussion is bernardo Bertolucci's The Dreamers starring Eva Green. They have a lot of effusively good things to say about it!

9. 2.18 - R is for Rape24.03.2023 (01:57:52)

   It's time to talk about that word we hate so much, Rape. Sadly, rape is something that a LOT of us are survivors of, and Jacinta and Raphael are no exception. It's so important to talk about it and that's exactly what they do. Sharing personal experiences; discussing the inadequate language around rape and sexual assault, and exploring how to support people who have survived rape. This is a difficult episode with a lot of triggering content so please listen with caution.

10. 2.17 - Q is for Quickie13.01.2023 (01:07:17)

    Raphael and Jacinta are back with a quip-filled, laughter-fuelled, fast-talking episode all about quickies! They are not alone though, joining them is none other than genealogist, socialite, and all round smutty guy, William Hall. Jumping from orgasms to red wine and white carpets, to blowjobs in the 'bog', sexy teeth-brushing, and #quickiesinthequeueforthequeen, they explore the meaning of 'quickie', the best places to have them, and the best people to have them with. They also have much to say on this week's film, 'Scenes of a Sexual Nature', which definitely oversold on the 'sexual' part.

11. 2.16 - P is for Penis12.12.2022 (01:10:24)

    For a podcast about sex, there's been remarkably little chat about the specifics of genitalia so far. It's now time to change all that with this week's episode, P is for Penis! (Don't worry, Vulvas will be getting an episode too, you've just gotta wait a few weeks for that one.) Join Raphael and Jacinta as they talk penis parts (inside and out), penises in art (spoiler: there are a lot), and tell stories of penises they have known and loved.

12. 2.15 - O is for Orgy21.11.2022 (01:25:28)

    Today Jacinta and Raphael have not one but TWO guests because, as we establish in the course of the episode, it takes at least four to make an orgy, which just so happens to be the focus of this week's discussion! The guests in question are drag adjacent performance artist, the fabulous Felix Le Freak (returning after their brilliant appearance in Season 1 episode Q is for Queer), and first time (but no less fabulous) guest, actor, musical theatre performer and educator, Tanya! With much merriment, the group discuss what an orgy is, how many you need to make an orgy, how to find an orgy and keep yourself safe once you're there, the etymology of 'orgy', and talk about some of their own orgiastic experiences. This week's orgy-related film was Dance of the 41. It elicited some strong reactions, heated discussion, and varying reviews (the hosts liked it better than the guests)! Let us know your thoughts on it, as well as on orgies! TW: There are no triggers this week!

13. 2.14 - N is for Nudity23.10.2022 (01:33:55)

    Jacinta and Raphael bare the naked truth in this week's discussion of nudity. They look at a range of feelings involved with nudity, from shame to confidence and embarrassment to empowerment, and look at the contexts when it is and isn't ok to be naked and why that might be. And of course how nudity should very much be on the nude person's terms, you should never have to take your clothes off if you don't want to! Having got to a stage in their personal journeys where they're both extremely comfortable with being naked, Jacinta and Raphael thought a good film to watch this week would be Steve McQueen's 'Shame'. They have a lot of appreciation for the naked scenes, less for the long shots of Carey Mulligan singing an extremely boring song! tw: domestic assault (1:25:25 - 1:26:07) #atozwithmen #nisfornudity #nostalgia #nosuchthingasnormal #shame #michaelfassbender #nakedjobs #historyofnudity #bigsymbol #blamethevictorians #bornnaked #lifedrawing #nakedjourney #bodycontact #anatozofsexwithmen

14. 2.13 - M is for Masculinity04.07.2022 (01:23:00)

    Rounding off the first half of Season 2, we bring you an in depth discussion on Masculinity, featuring very special guest, Cabaret performer and producer of the fabulous Glitter n Titter Cabaret, Matt Rowan! Positive, performative, toxic and fragile, Masculinity encompasses a lot of things, but what actually IS it? Is it a useful definition, a societal construct, an outdated term, an intrinsic part of our identities, or possibly all of the above? We're left uncertain, but happy to be part of this important and complex conversation. Our Masculinity related film this week is the 2020 version of The Boys in the Band. We were all big fans of the film, although it didn't enlighten us much further on what masculinity (or indeed femininity) is.

15. 2.12 - L is for Lust13.06.2022 (01:23:24)

    This week we're looking at Love's near, dear, and much maligned relation: Lust. Where Love is the stuff of epic poetry and enduring fiction, Lust is the stuff of banned books and pornos, hidden away behind closed doors and under creaking beds. So why is that? Why is such a strong, and often enjoyable, feeling surrounded by so much stigma? Join us on a journey of erotic discovery, in which we examine religion's role in our cultural and societal perceptions of Lust; lament the havoc Lust in the workplace can cause; and reminisce about our own lusciously lustful encounters. Our Lusty film of the week is Les Choses Secretes. It now holds joint first place as our highest reviewed film ever! There is a lot of lust in it, it's amazing, and we've got a lot of very complimentary things to say! There are no triggers this week.

16. 2.11 - K is for Kissing06.06.2022 (01:13:34)

    In this week's episode K, Raphael and Jacinta are talking all things Kissing! Whether it's reminiscing about the pillowy lips of partners past and present; deep diving into the science of smooching; discussing kissing compatibility; or explaining the importance of consent when it comes to the platonic peck, they cover it all. Does good kissing equal good sex? Is it bad form to kiss in public (especially if you're straight)? And how does kissing make us feel? Listen now to find out! Our Kissing film of the week is 2017 Oscar winner, Moonlight. There's a little less kissing than we hoped for, but the ones we got were great!

17. 2.10 - J is for Just Kidding30.05.2022 (01:06:59)

    In our efforts to find something relevant beginning with J, we came up with... Just Kidding! (In other words, faking it.) There are of course fake orgasms, which we talk a lot about. How common are they? Do cis men fake orgasms too?! Are fake orgasms even possible?? Have we ever faked them, or had them faked to us? But there are, we discover, a lot of other ways of faking or 'just kidding' within romantic and sexual relationships. Can we all honestly say we're completely honest with our partners all of the time. And how openly do we actually talk about our sex lives? And are we even completely truthful with ourselves when it comes to our relationships, hookups and turn-ons? We had no difficulty choosing which film to watch this week. Famous for its iconic fake orgasm scene, as well as it's witty dialogue and touching central friendship and romance, it's only When Harry Met Sally! We were both surprised at just how much we enjoyed it.

18. 2.09 - I is for Infatuation23.05.2022 (01:11:14)

    This week I is for that all powerful, all consuming emotion, Infatuation. We often compare infatuation with love, but what is the difference (and what are the similarities)? It's erotic, distracting, and at times deeply inappropriate. But can infatuation be a good thing and does it ever lead to, or indeed, co-exist with, love? Infatuation with people, places and pastimes, we cover it all! Our infatuation related film of the week is Théo & Hugo. With intense and sexy (unsimulated) sex scenes, a HIV scare, and extensive shots of Parisian streets, there is much to discuss. There are no trigger warnings this week!

19. 2.08 - H is for Heartbreak13.05.2022 (01:33:08)

    This week Raphael and Jacinta are joined by very special guest, Achim Brandenburg (aka Prosumer) to delve into the topic of Heartbreak. We look at post-breakup heartbreak, the heartbreak after the loss of a loved one, and the physical impact heartbreak can have on your actual heart. Amongst the usual 'extensive' research, practical (and less practical) advice, witty anecdotes and film discussion, Achim movingly shares his feelings of heartbreak following the recent loss of his close friend, Gary. We feel so privileged to have been able to honour Gary and his memory and legacy on our podcast and would like to dedicate this episode to him. This week's Heartbreak related film is Mario (a 2018 Swiss film directed by Marcel Gisler), a love story between footballers Mario and Leon. Our nutshell review is: 'beautiful sex scenes, too much football, why is being gay always the problem??' but listen to the episode for our in depth analysis.

20. 2.07 - G is for Genitals02.04.2022 (01:13:04)

    This week we are getting technical and discussing the all important genitals! We all have them, we all use them (for peeing if not for sexing), but do we really know them? A bit of research suggests that, no, we don't. Vas deferens anyone? Or what about a mons pubis? In this episode we try to clarify a bit of genital biology, as well as exploring our relationship with our own genitals. Turns out it can be complicated, but ultimately, every genital is different and, more importantly, every genital is gorgeous! At the end of the episode we treat ourselves to genital filled movie, Wetlands, based on the novel of the same name by Charlotte Roche. It's visceral, gross, sweet, sexy, and excellent. We can heartily recommend! There are no trigger warnings this week!

21. 2.06 - F is for Fetish28.03.2022 (01:47:28)

    This week we're delving into the fabulous and fascinating topic of Fetish. We couldn't do it alone though, so this week we are joined, for the SECOND time, by A to Z favourite, bisexual burlesque beastie, Bambi Bang Bang! Together we discuss the difference between between fetish and kink, explore some common and less common fetishes, and muse about what our own fetishes might be (if indeed we have any, it seems some of us can wank to anything)! We also watch the iconic kink film, Secretary and debate how successful it is at portraying fetish in a relationship. We had a lot to say and a lot to unpack! While we all agreed that more communication and after care would have been great, we'd still take Edward Grey over Christian Grey any day.

22. 2.05 - E is for Ejaculation20.03.2022 (01:13:52)

    This week E is for Ejaculation! An exhilarating release and the perfect accompaniment to an orgasm, but ohhhh the mess... Join Raphael and Jacinta as they discuss existentialism, ejaculation etiquette, the science of ejaculation, and get personal about their own ejaculations past and present. Today's Ejaculation related film is Shortbus and they LOVED it! There is much vocal ejaculating at the film's sex positive perfection. They highly recommend you go watch it immediately! There are no trigger warnings this week!

23. 2.04 - D is for Drama11.03.2022 (01:07:13)

    Stressful, scary or scintillating, Drama is a prevalent part of many sexual and romantic relationships (not to mention friendships and work relationships)! Whether it's the drama of first love or fifty-first love; breakup sex or makeup sex; whirlwind romances or relationships that have passed their sell-by-date, Drama is everywhere. What creates drama in a relationship? Is it avoidable? Can it ever be a positive thing? Raphael and Jacinta discuss all this and more, as well as reminiscing over some particularly dramatic relationships in their turbulent sexual pasts. The film up for discussion this week is Blue Valentine. It sparked some animated discussion and left them both extremely tense!

24. 2.03 - C is for Communication11.03.2022 (01:18:38)

    Communication is essential for any relationship, be it sexual, romantic or platonic, but it's so hard to do! This week Jacinta and Raphael explore just why that might be, as well as discussing some tips and tricks to make it that little bit easier. This week's film is Duke of Burgundy, which we have a lot of good things to say about! There are no trigger warnings this week.

25. 2.02 - B is for Breakups25.02.2022 (01:32:57)

    Most of us will have gone through at least one break up (some of us considerably more), whether it was from your childhood crush, your first proper romantic partner, your kid's other parent, or any of the relationships in between. They all seem to happen for different reasons (falling out of love, sleeping with someone else, annoying habits getting that bit *too* annoying, lives simply following different paths) but they are all HARD. To help them explore the variety and similarities within breakups, Raphael and Jacinta have enlisted the help of special guest, the wonderful Flavia Fraser-Cannon. It turns out breakups tend to involve a fair amount of guttural sobbing, numbness, and film-watching. Speaking of which, their film up for discussion this week was Ingmar Bergman's Scenes from a Marriage, which they had some *very* differing views on!
