17. Sex

Does sex warrant the feeling of shame we often attach to it?

Does sex warrant the feeling of shame we often attach to it? How does society influence the way we think about sex? Will the phrase 'bumping uglies' ever catch on? (Hope not). Join Mae, Bisha, Ned and Steve as they wrap their sexy heads around all this. This week, Mae has an impossible 'would you rather' scenario, Bisha investigates sex myths and Ned's been thinking about sex robots. Vlogger and author Hannah Witton joins the gang in the studio and Steve Ali puts everything into perspective.

Co-created by Deborah Frances-White for The Spontaneity Shop and ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ Radio 4.
