Why Won’t You Date Me? With Nicole Byer
https://www.instagram.com/p/BsqSEPqAZyR/
Byer (from MTV’s Girl Code and Netflix’s Nailed It!) talks about everything from chronic UTI’s, STI’s, and more. She brings experts on sex, other comedians, and provides a fresh and honest perspective on each topic. Most recent topics include sex tapes, threesomes, and the differences between love, lust, and infatuation. She fearlessly asks all the questions that we might be afraid to ask (“what’s the difference between a psychiatrist and a psychologist?”). This is one to listen to when you don’t have an older, wiser sister to answer all your taboo questions.

The Hoe and the Hopeless
Two comedians, Kia and Deb keep it real out of Philly “working to destigmatize what it means to be a ‘hoe’ or ‘hopeless’.” Kia offers the fresh perspective of a sexually liberated woman who is in a committed relationship, while Deb gives the single girl’s perspective sans the ay bendito vibes that usually comes along with being a single and independent woman. These two cover everything from dating, resolutions, calling themselves (and others) out on their bullshit, and more. Listen to their podcast on Soundcloud.
