[Contains explicit content] Back in 2009 nearly 190 million antidepressant prescriptions were dispensed in the United States, according to the National Institute of Mental Health. Imagine with the pandemic what today’s numbers might be. Antidepressants are put into groups based on which chemicals in the brain they affect. Susie looks at the sexual side effects of these drugs, including the loss of libido. That's not acceptable!

Here at In Bed if someone says you "have a dirty mind" we call that a compliment! Today's guest, Nicholson Baker, has received that accolade and many more; The New York Times has even described him as "the mad scientist of smut". Susie and Nicholson talk about his steamy book House of Holes, which is filled with outrageous scenes of raunch, fantasy, and characters experiencing wild pleasures.

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.

Susie starts off today's show with a look at some recent weird sexual crimes that involved eating the victim's flesh. No, this is not S&M…. It's cannibalism. A man kills then eats his lover's buttocks. A homeless, nude man chews off another man's face. A college student kills and then dines on his roommate's brain and heart. What is going on?

Christian churches are coming to the rescue for some young women. But the old-fashioned advice they dole out on pornography may not be so helpful. Susie looks at a New York Times article about an evangelical group that promotes "victory" workshops against porn to end female members' addictions. They pray to be strong and not masturbate, they learn how to please their husbands instead of themselves, and they learn that their sexual habits are sinful. Banish you, evil porn! Begone! God has spoken!

[Contains explicit content] Susie reviews the new HBO documentary Jane Fonda in Five Acts. Next, the rise and fall - and rise and fall - of the American "breastaurant" is not a feminist victory. Then, it's "New on Audible": searchable tables of contents that correspond to the printed book - at last!

Susie starts the program off with exotic ideas for gifts to make this Christmas a sexy one - it's the "Eighth Annual Sexy Gift Guide", compiled by Susie's friend Tristan Taormino.

Susie will be one of the judges who will "honor" 2007's most pathetic, hypocritical, and corrupt individuals.

They discuss some of the book's outrageous scenes.

Susie spends the first part of today's show looking at a controversial idea that could help some very lonely people get relief. If prostitution were legal, could we avoid rampages like the recent Isla Vista massacre?

[Contains explicit content] In this 2004 show, Susie's guest is Rachel Kramer Bussel, who shares her love for spanking, her thoughts on femme lesbians hooking up with other femme lesbians, and the thrill of Monica Lewinsky. Some of Rachel's books include Up All Night: Adventures in Lesbian Sex, Glamour Girls: Femme/Femme Erotica, and Naughty Spanking Stories from A to Z. Then, from the mailbag: Susie hears from some ardent defenders of Suicide Girls.

On today's show, Susie invites artist Raquel Cool into the studio for an interview sure to surprise you. Cool is a performance artist whose latest installation is entitled Live Nude Eggs - and this isn't about chickens.

She juxtaposes the aesthetics of a strip club and a medical center, and focuses on the transparencies of a transaction involving a donor and her eggs. Susie went to the show and loved it!

In a show from 2012, Susie looks at a common first-timers fear: What do virgins need to know about how sex "feels"? Susie has some online advice from her friend and sex expert Cory Silverberg. Next, in "Tell Me Your Sex Story", Susie talks with another willing listener who steps into her sexual confession booth. Meet "Louise", a 25-year-old sex industry worker.

On this week's In Bed, Susie talks to Greg Cope White about his memoir The Pink Marine. Long before DADT ("Don't ask, don't tell") a friend invited him to sign up for the Marine Corps summer boot camp. But all Greg heard was "summer" and "camp". Semper Fi!

Free-market conservatives are actively strategizing on shutting down the government, based on fighting birth control. What's their end game? Susie is fascinated by these Republican lawmakers and has wondered why they are so adamant about getting their way. Reading from Amanda Marcotte's article in The Guardian, Susie covers the major points that make the right wingers so upset with Planned Parenthood's clientele. It has to do with being angry at people who are low-income, female, unmarried, and having kids.
