Susie spends the entire show with guest Daniel Bergner, whose book What Do Women Want? was on the New York Times best-seller list. The book is subtitled Adventures in the Science of Female Desire, and it disrupts the typical idea that women are more monogamous than men. Bergner's research also turns the tables on conventional thinking about women's desires and arousal.

Today, Susie has a very special interview to share with you. We'll be talking with best-selling author Christopher Ryan about his book Sex at Dawn: The Prehistoric Origins of Modern Sexuality.

Today, Susie has the real story behind Playboy's decision to discontinue the centerfold. The world is abuzz with the news that the leading gentrifier of "girlie mags" will no longer publish nude photos. Playboy claims that their magazine has lost "shock value, commercial value and cultural relevance" due to the easy access to porn the Internet provides. Susie sees it differently: It's more about looking for more international outlets, ones that won't allow nudity but condone - and really like - titillation.

And finally, Susie gets a letter from a listener who reminisces about her sexy youthful time in New Orleans.

Today Susie catches up with listener letters from our "Try This at Home" mailbag. She reads and answers two letters on matters both global and personal. One fellow writes about his slow start sexually. He was 23 before he had sex, and this has led him to think about Puritans, sexual pleasure, morals, and more. Susie has much to say on this topic. The next letter delves into porn and erotica, but with a special twist. Our correspondent is looking for athletic, strong women in porn that aren't "Barbie doll" types. Susie has some pretty hot suggestions....

This week we present the birth of a blue-movie critic. It's a look into how Susie went from being what Roger Ebert called an "innocent lesbian virgin" to the Pauline Kael of porn. She tells us about being hired by Penthouse Forum to write a pocket-sized journal focusing on sexy words rather than sexy pictures as she reviewed X-rated films. Our young Susie got a first-hand look into the world of porn movies, and oh what stories she has to tell!

[Contains explicit content] Susie has been totally enamored by a blog called The Honest Courtesan, written by Maggie McNeil - and today we feature an interview with Maggie. Susie wanted to know more about how Maggie got started in the profession, as well as why she finally gave it up. Susie also asked what the biggest myth is (that can be debunked) about prostitutes. Then, from the mailbag: Susie hears from a listener in England. He asks: "How can I get around the porn filters placed on the entire UK internet?"

A man was told by his doctor that he has idiopathic fibrosis and that he has 100 orgasms left before his penis stops working. What would you do in his shoes?

Today, Susie talks to an In Bed listener about what it's really like being a first-year medical student and what he's learning about helping patients with sexual issues.

But here, Gideon and Susie delve into the practice of medicine. What is it like to dissect a penis? How do you tell the difference between S&M and abuse? And are new med students sensitive to LGBT issues?

Teenagers are having less sex these days, and teen pregnancy is down. This all sounds pretty good, right? Susie begs to differ and looks at the real reasons behind the statistics. A recent article by Amy T. Schalet in The New York Times got Susie thinking about what's changed for boys. What role has religion, abstinence-based sex education, and Internet pornography played in boys wanting love, not just sex?

Today, Susie breaks open two controversial topics: incest - and justice. She begins with the most provocative child-abuse accusation to enter the public's awareness in years - Dylan Farrow vs. Woody Allen - and ends with an argument for justice that is ageless. Susie ponders the question of what we are supposed to think when celebrities take to the press about their family abuse. Is it about money? Is it about immortality? Or is it just more of the screwed-up lives that Hollywood produces so effortlessly?

Susie's guest this week is former Penthouse editor, Lavada Nahon. Lavada reveals the truth behind some of the magazine's best-known columns, including Penthouse Letters. She also talks about some of her own sexual and personal awakenings while at Penthouse, including a sex scandal that hit a bit too close to home. Susie and Lavada worked together on an erotic collection called Between the Sheets, which is available at audible.com®.

The breaking news was uncovered at an annual sex-toys convention. Susie has many stories about this supercharged plaything that will have you running to the store to get your own model now.

Susie spends the entire show in a retro mode. If you think the TV show Mad Men is hot, well Susie has a circa 1964 "how-to pick-up gays" pamphlet that rivals that show for sex appeal - from the underground. The Beginners Guide to Cruising is a serious how-to manual written by George Marshall. It offers pointers on everything from etiquette to the tools needed to attract a young gay man.

The Sexual State of the Union includes essays about dirty pictures and porn, lesbian marriage and lesbian murder, lesbian men and switching genders, vibrators, and the longevity of feminism. The writing is crisp, intelligent, and provocative; there is sure to be something that will make you cheer as well as something that will deeply offend you.

Susie begins today's show by reading a story written by EcoWhore. This real-life sex worker lives in the wilderness and uses her van as her boudoir. She was an underaged prostitute, and this tale is called "Exploitation". Next, monogamy is up for debate. Fellow sexpert Dan Savage is in the news for his view that non-monogamy can help save marriages. Susie says hooray! But it seems that many other people disagree....

Happy Halloween, and as a ghoulish treat, Susie reads a story that is so scary, sexy, and suspenseful you may want to keep the lights on and be sure to lock the doors. The story is from Susie's newest book, X, The Erotic Treasury, and this dark, taboo piece is written by Vicki Hendricks.
