In this ENCORE episode, Marko and Steve slip into a slippery subject: personal lubricant. From water-based to silicone, flavored to specialty blends, the guys break down the different options and brands on the market. They share their own go-to choices, the not-so-great experiences they’ve had, and what they’ve learned along the way. Plus, they pose the big questions: What makes a good lube for you? and Are there any types you’ve been curious about but haven’t tried yet? To wrap things up, they tackle the week's Listener Sh!tuation, offering their thoughts and guidance on a real life dilemma from the audience.

In the final (recorded) episode of Season 12, Marko and Steve close things out by revisiting some of the most memorable listener emails from Seasons 11 and 12—and finally finding out what happened after the guidance was given. From dating dilemmas to relationship crossroads, this episode is all about accountability, growth, and the unpredictable ways real life plays out once the mics are off.

The episode also serves as a proud send-off for Season 12, with Marko and Steve reflecting on the effectiveness of their guidance, how their own perspectives on relationships and dating impact their mindset, and what these follow-ups reveal about communication and self-respect.

Marko and Steve sit down with Auntea Kerel (@iamkerel) of the Minoritea Report Podcast (@minoriteareport) for an honest conversation about religion, faith, and how both collide with LGBTQ+ relationships. Together, they unpack what it’s like to grow up in the church, internalize its teachings, and then later come to terms with your sexuality—especially when those spaces don’t always make room for queer identities. To wrap things up, Kerel joins the guys to tackle the week's Listener Sh!tuation, offering their thoughts and guidance on a real life dilemma from the audience.

In this episode, Marko and Steve dive headfirst into the messy, loud-whispered, and oh-so-queer conversation around “body count.” Does your sexual history shape how desirable you are as a partner, or is it just another outdated trope we drag into modern dating?

The guys break down why body count still comes up in queer conversations, unpack where the idea of being “pure” even comes from, and ask the big question: does being the so-called “pass-around party bottom” actually disqualify anyone from love, commitment, or marriage? (Spoiler: the girls have thoughts.)

In this ENCORE episode, Marko and Steve dive into the often-taboo topic of masturbation within committed relationships. They explore how self-pleasure can be a healthy, personal form of sexual expression, even when one has an available and willing partner. The conversation navigates questions like: Should your partner fulfill all your sexual needs? Or is it reasonable—and even beneficial—for individuals to maintain a solo sexual practice? They address common misconceptions, emotional impacts, and how open communication plays a key role in balancing intimacy with personal autonomy.

This week, Marko and Steve dive into a painfully universal truth: we’re all annoying to someone. The guys ask the question none of us really want to answer — “Are you annoying?” — and break down the everyday habits, quirks, and patterns that might be driving your partner (or that new situationship) a little bit up the wall. To wrap things up, they tackle the week's Listener Sh!tuation, offering their thoughts and guidance on a real life dilemma from the audience.

This week, Marko and Steve dive mouth-first (yes, we said it) into a topic that’s as fun as it is foundational: the importance of or@l sex in your relationship or situationship. They unpack why good oral chemistry can make or break intimacy, how to communicate what you like, and why enthusiasm matters just as much as technique. To wrap things up, they tackle the week's Listener Sh!tuation, offering their thoughts and guidance on a real life dilemma from the audience.
