Today's show addresses every new parent's concern: Will we ever have sex again? Do you feel like you're in a time warp with your baby or toddler, with no hope of romance returning? Well, worry no more. Susie gives advice to all parents. This is part of an interview Susie had with a super-cool parenting magazine called Haus Frau, edited by Nicole Chaison. The magazine focuses on real family challenges: head lice, traveling with kids, and (in the upcoming issue with Susie) sex.

No, Susie has not suddenly developed psychic skills regarding your sex life, but she has read about a study that examines sex in the winter. She reads from Anna North's BuzzFeed.com article that details when people are having the most sex and reading the most porn, by season. The study looked into how temperatures and holidays affect the libido, as well as when most people feel especially sexy. Winter beats summer for when more kids are conceived, but guess which season makes people feel the horniest? The answer may surprise you!

Susie brings you today's show from London. And while the English may have a reputation for being well-mannered and stiff-lipped, Susie has found some very open-minded and racy Brits to talk to. First up is an interview with Dr. Petra Boynton, one of Britain's top sex educators. Petra and Susie have a lot in common, and their discussion starts out with looking at the double-standard when it comes to women watching porn.

Susie highlights another sexy new audiobook. This week's pick is The Killer Wore Leather by Laura Antoniou, read by Lauren Fortgang. Susie loves this S/M mystery novel. A reviewer wrote that this is "fifty shades of hilarious". Susie has an audio excerpt for you to hear.

Susie takes a look into how black and inter-racial sex videos have evolved since the 1980s. The adult video boom thrives on bringing sexual secrets into America's bedrooms, capitalizing on taboo interests. With titles like Black Chicks Do It Better and In and Out of Africa, these fringe porn movies have presented themes that at the time seemed risky but soon became the norm. Susie did some investigative reporting about why racism penetrated the porn industry.

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....

Today, in "Tell Me Your Sex Story", our ongoing series of listener interviews, Susie speaks with "Sam", an aerospace engineer. They talk about having sex in some surprising places…he's even done it while flying an airplane.

This week's Media Whore segment as Susie and her guests, Anne Semans and Cathy Winks, talk about the conflict between being a mom and still wanting/needing/loving sex. Semans and Wink are the authors of The Mother's Guide to Sex. This week's Front Page features Susie's advice to curb soaring divorce rates among young Christian couples and, in her Try This at Home mailbag, Susie answers a man who's worried about his love for Tomb Raider's Lara Croft.

Susie has found a very sweet and funny article about what really happens at summer camps. Written by Maureen O'Connor for New York magazine's thecut.com, the story includes 10 memoirs from teenagers about their sexual awakenings while away at camp. There are fake orgasms, shared showers, and time spent with older (and hornier) camp counselors. One story recounts riding horses and really enjoying the up-and-down motion. Another describes naked swimming in a pond....

New parents are keenly aware that there is something very important missing in their lives: SEX. Susie has some tips on how to get your mojo back, even if the diapers still need changing.

How does the Border Control identify sex traffickers, or people coming into the country for any kind of sex? And... why is it any of their business? Susie reads an article from Laura Agustin's The Naked Anthropologist blog about sex victims and sex workers. Agustin is an authority on trafficking, and she explodes several myths: that selling sex is completely different from any other kind of work, that migrants who sell sex are passive victims, and that the multitudes of people out to "save" them are without self-interest.

On today's show, you're going to feel the heat! Susie begins by describing a scene from a movie called Headshot. This short film about a man getting a blowjob will make you feel like you are there in the room with him. Susie gets the intimate details in her interview with erotica filmmaker Jennifer Lyon Bell. Susie and Jennifer talk about what makes porn on screen so hot, how the actors prepare for sex scenes, and why showing explicit sex isn't always necessary to make a great erotic film.

Susie's favorite TV show is HBO's hit series The Sopranos and when the characters aren't killing each other, Susie says she loves the realistic and interesting sex on the show. Then, Susie finds that conservatives are figuring out which big corporations make the most from porn - they're mad as hell and their not going to take it lying down. In this week's Try This at Home mailbag, Susie gets a letter from a man who wonders are Chinese sex balls really that dangerous?

Susie's entire show is dedicated to one very hot story. In "What Happened to That Girl" by Marie Lyn Bernard, two men track down their long-lost foster sister (and the object of their teenage lust) to find out what she's like now that she's a porn star. This story is a sneak peak at Susie's soon-to-be-released Best American Erotica 2007.

Sex offenders in California: beware! New public-place laws are restricting and banning many more areas where convicted sex offenders can go. Susie reads from a New York Times article that lays out both sides of the issue.

What do not being able to stay hard, and never having too much cock, have in common? Anwer: both topics listeners bring to the table on today's show. Susie loves responding to our "Try This at Home" mailbag, and this week she looks at a letter from a husband who has had a happy sex life until a recent change in birth control methods, which now has him wearing condoms. He can't find his groove anymore and says, "Help!"

Michael Jackson is pleading innocent to seven felony counts of child molestation, but Susie says it's time for Jacko and his family to finally admit to the abuse that's driven him to Neverland and beyond. Then, Susie is shaking her head in disbelief about a recent case in Texas where a woman was charged with obscenity for selling sex toys. In her mailbag, Susie answers two letters from women - one is searching for non-annoying birth control and the second is seeking her depressed libido.

Susie starts off with a big question: "Who would you like to watch having sex?" Who is in your fantasy? Would it be Brad and Angelina, or would watching your neighbors do it be more of a turn on? Well, according to one of Susie's favorite fellow sexpert's, Cory Silverberg, we don't see enough regular sex.

Susie was recently a guest lecturer in a grad-school classroom where she was asked about the history of the feminist divide on pornography. This brought back old memories, including one in particular about how the famous radical writer Andrea Dworkin disagreed with Susie's view on pornography. Dworkin agreed with those who linked violence against women to porn. And back in the 1970s, she responded to an article Susie wrote about fisting. Dworkin wrote that if women were hurt because they tried Susie's violent idea of sex, then...Susie should be arrested!

The bathrooms at New York City's Port Authority Bus Terminal are the site of some questionable behavior - not by the public, but by undercover cops. Bewildered, innocent men are challenging many recent arrests for lewd behavior. A New York Times article found that the plain-clothes officers have been busting men at the urinals for indecent exposure. Susie reads from the story, which may make you guys rethink using the urinal - and maybe head for a stall instead.
