After Andrea Dworkin, the famous feminist philosopher and activist, passed away, her chief critic, Susie Bright, who many perceived as Dworkin's opposite, published a stirring obituary and series of essays in which she described the ways that Dworkin was a catalyst for the sex-positive movement in contemporary feminism.

The Internet site dailydot featured a recent article with the headline, "Sex-positive female masturbation app rejected from App Store". This caught Susie's attention big-time. While the store offers many other apps that could be considered offensive, Susie wonders what's so bad about this game called Happy PlayTime, in which a cartoon vulva teaches women how to get comfortable with their clitorises. Seems like outright, blatant sexism.

In our ongoing "Tell Me Your Sex Story" segment, we meet a listener who became famous when she went head-to-head against a cantankerous Tea Party Republican.

Susie and Melissa talk about sexual politics, government corruption, and just what happens to mail carriers when the homeowner wants more than just letters delivered.

[Contains explicit content] Susie takes you in the way-back machine to 1992. Sandra Bernhard was coming to national attention, based on a cheeky late night appearance with Madonna. She was starting to resent the focus on her sexuality, and who should the British Film Institute engage to publicly interview her? America's lesbian sex expert and pornographer Susie Bright. Tea was spilled, but no blood.

This week's show kicks off Susie's San Francisco interview series. First up is Veronica Monet, a prostitute who is also an avowed feminist, a loving wife, and a professional speaker.

And, in this week's Try This at Home mailbag, Susie answers a man who wants to hang out in the nude (with others) before he dies.

Susie is away today, but here's a great show from 2015 that starts with a light-hearted look at "vagina steaming". What?

Next, Susie looks at why the millennial generation is much more prudish then genXers.
