The Best of the GETSOME Podcast
WELCOME
Sex and sexuality are universal human experiences, yet the intimacy of the topic makes it a conversation that often happens in hushed whispers and incognito Google searches. So, we are bringing the conversation into the open, with education and resources that embrace the diversity of the human experience. Adults from all walks of life are welcome at GETSOME.
Our approach to sexual education combines compassion with humor to help everyone overcome the often daunting task of addressing sexual shame. Because, no matter who you are or who you love, you deserve to GETSOME.

We’ve been creating the GETSOME Podcast for three whole seasons now, with a fourth on the horizon! In that time we’ve spoken with some of the most fascinating people on the internet, held space for difficult but necessary conversations, and joined forces with people who are just as passionate about minimizing sexual shame as we are. We can’t help but feel a little sentimental about the past episodes of the podcast that we’re so proud of.
So, why not take a little trip down memory lane with us?
Whether you’re a brand new listener looking for the perfect jumping off point, or a dedicated fan revisiting some of your favorite episodes, here are the past episodes of the GETSOME podcast that you don’t want to miss:
Our Most Popular Episodes
Season 1: Selling Sex at a Cost
Our most listened to episode of season 1 contains a candid conversation about the benefits of decriminalizing sex work in Canada. Speaking with a current sex worker and a sex-worker-turned-therapist, we unpack the experience of selling sex and how decriminalization would impact the sex work industry in Canada.
Season 2: Sex Work-Life Balance
Clearly sex work piques the interest of the GETSOME audience, because our most popular episode of season 2 also revolves around the lives of sex workers! In this episode, our guests from our most popular season 1 episode return to discuss the work-life balance of sex workers. Who are their clients? Do they have romantic partners? In this episode we answer all of the sex work questions that have always left you scratching your head.
Season 3: Seniors Seeking Friends With Benefits
Finding a friend with benefits can be hard at any age. But when you’re 78 and grieving your late husband? It’s an even trickier feat. In season 3’s most listened to episode we sit down with Cynthia, a senior citizen who wants to remind the world that your sexual needs don’t disappear with age.
Our Kinkiest Episodes
The Professional With a Kinky Side
By day, she’s a high-powered working professional. By night, she’s a kink-positive member of the rope bondage community. Like the Batman of sexuality, our anonymous guest strikes the perfect balance between her personal and professional worlds. Ultimately, her openness and experience give us the space to reflect on our own desires and boundaries, helping us find a path towards our own sexual, personal, and professional empowerment.
Alphas Who Love Anal Play
A back-breaking injury led this blue collar guest down the unexpected path of sexual enlightenment, and he joined us in this episode to tell his story. When Bill became bed-ridden from an on-the-job injury, he discovered Kundalini rising and never looked back. Our conversation with him brings up questions about pleasure, power, self-acceptance, and the need to break down the stigma of discussing the nuances of male sexuality.
The Perks of Being a Bi Guy
Nope, it’s not a phase. In this episode from season 3, our guest discusses the journey towards understanding and accepting his own bisexuality, and how to find community when you feel stuck in between worlds.
Our Most Inspirational Episodes
Sex With Sue Documentary
Sue Johanson is quite literally the reason that GETSOME exists. So, getting to sit down with award-winning filmmaker and director of the Sex With Sue documentary, Lisa Rideout, was an incredible honor. In this episode, we discuss the impact of Sue Johanson, the importance of accessible sex education, and what it’s like to binge-watch hundreds of hours of Sex With Sue.
The Woman Born Without a Vagina
We started season 3 of the GETSOME Podcast with an inspirational conversation with Ally Hensley. Born with a rare condition called Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser (MKRH) Syndrome, Ally talks about what it was like growing up and exploring her sexuality without a vagina or reproductive organs.
Women in Iran
On September 16, 2022, a revolutionary anti-government protest was sparked in Iran following the detainment of 22-year-old Mahsa Amini for showing too much hair. In this anonymous conversation with a queer Iranian woman, we reflect on the impact of these protests and what it means to grow up as a woman in Iran. Nearly two years later, this remains a poignant and relevant conversation as women across the globe continue to fight for their rights.
Sex and Money
Money is a major source of stress for many people. It is always on our minds. But one unexpected way that financial worries impact us is in our sex lives. This conversation with Master Certified Ontological Coach Tracey Burns dives into the seldom-discussed dynamics of money and sex.
Micropenis, Macro Sex Drive
At a young age, Chris was diagnosed with a medical micropenis. For years, he struggled with sex and dating until he discovered two kinks that fueled a macro sex drive – Small Penis Humiliation and Cuckolding. Our conversation with Chris highlights the importance of pleasure on the journey to self-love.
Sex After Female Genital Mutilation
In this evocative episode, Toronto-based Rahat Pye, MSW, RSW — an adolescent, individual, family, and couples therapist — unravels the deeply personal story of her mother, a Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) survivor from Bombay, India. Diving deep into the trauma, defiance, and resilience, Rahat sheds light on the stark realities of FGM and its profound effect on her mother’s life. As the narrative unfolds, we explore the paradox of a mother who, despite her own harrowing experiences, championed the significance of sexual health, intimacy, and pleasure.
Sex After Having Kids
Having kids changes everything. Your priorities shift significantly, you have 100% less free time, and your sex life tends to be the first thing to take a hit. With a changing body and changing needs, how do you rebuild your relationship with sex? In this conversation with Shannon Ariel, a retired sex worker, we discuss her journey to unlinking her self-worth and her sexuality and ultimately unlocking the best sex of her life.
Our Most Surprising Episodes
Mindfulness and Supercharged Sex
In this insightful episode, we are joined by Ellevan and Winny Clarke, hosts of the Disciplined Stoners podcast. We discuss how, after 15 years, they embarked on a journey to rediscover their sexuality using mindfulness, cannabis, quarantine, and flowstate as tools to reopen their door to sexual exploration.
The Boy in the Tighty Whities
Ever loved something so much that you made it into your career? That’s exactly what guest Milo Miles did when he made a surprising career pivot from politics to porn, with his tighty whitie kink largely to thank for the career change. In this episode, we deep-dive into Milo’s childhood in Colombia, the origins of his interest in tighty whities, and how therapy and social connection have helped him on his journey to self-acceptance.
The Best Episodes for Clinicians
One of our personal favorite parts about the GETSOME podcast is how versatile the material is. Casual listeners and practicing clinicians alike can get what they need from the conversations that we have, and use our podcast as a tool to help themselves and their clients on their own journey towards sexual liberation. If you are a clinician or therapist struggling to have conversations about sex with your clients, here are nine episodes that might help bridge the gap of understanding:
Reclaiming Sexuality After Trauma
Mastering Pleasure with Sensate
Unravelling Gay Male Sexuality
