What do Taylor Swift, a clown car, and seasonal porn have in common? They all somehow make it into this week’s episode of Your Mileage May Vary! Just Mike and me today, and we’re diving into the strange, hilarious, and occasionally bleak corners of sex, relationships, and the modern world.

We kick things off with a look at the awkward politics of swinger approaches, including Mike’s firsthand confusion at a Lake Tahoe bar that was definitely not what he expected. Then we analyze why Taylor Swift’s music might be your secret weapon for attracting 20-something women (pro tip: encyclopedic knowledge of “All Too Well” is apparently a game-changer). Along the way, we discuss whether AI-generated porn is the future of personal fantasies, and whether we’d even want that future in the first place.

From there, we pivot into listener questions, tackling the problem of queefing, and a curious case of someone who can masturbate 15 times a day but can’t seem to finish during sex. As always, our takes are a mix of irreverent humor and the occasional moment of accidental insight—plus a surprising amount of advice on how not to ruin your marriage over a cushion.

Stick around to the end, where we contemplate the ultimate “bro gift” (it’s not what you think), seasonal porn costumes, and why some people are oddly dedicated to writing heartfelt comments on Reddit porn. This is an episode where our tangents are as good as the main course, so grab your headphones, settle in, and join us for another wild ride.

Keith opens with a hot take on Trump’s America, while Mike finds unexpected humor in Elon Musk’s dreams of Mars. Ally is unimpressed, predicting four years of “dumb news” with a cognitive load she’d rather skip. It’s politics, sex, tech, and a sprinkle of dark comedy.

As the conversation shifts, we hit a deep dive into relationships and breakups. Keith brings a Reddit post on moving on from an ex, sparking a fiery debate. Mike likens it to Mein Kampf, and somehow Hitler’s love life becomes a point of speculation. The trio pokes fun, but there's a hint of truth in their banter about love, betrayal, and the bitter art of letting go.

Then, it’s onto the porn rabbit hole. Keith shares his paid-for porn adventures and the disturbing allure of AI-generated nudity. Mike gets philosophical, asking if infinite access to virtual sex will change the world – or just take men out of it. Ally, as ever, has a bone to pick, wondering if this shift could finally tip the scales in favor of women running society. It’s porn, politics, and the future of humanity in one messy, strangely insightful package.

Finally, they wonder: what will happen when everyone can make movies from scripts with a click? Mike envisions a world where we can create our own fantasies, from romantic sagas to Hollywood-level action. But Keith isn’t so sure – he predicts that AI-driven entertainment will soon overshadow everything we know.

We spar over a recent listener’s email critiquing the show, with Mike’s biting response setting the tone: Don’t like it? Don’t listen. The debate over listener loyalty quickly spirals into discussions about free speech, political divides, and an unexpected autofellatio advocate from YouTube, proving once again that no topic is too taboo.

The team then veers into a humorous, yet candid, conversation about the logistics of drug testing and the subtle art of peeing in a cup. Ally bravely fields questions from Keith and Mike about the surprisingly complex mechanics of female urination. If you’ve ever wondered why women might need to wipe differently or how men view their anatomy post-pee, this segment has your answers.

The hosts take a dive into the motivations behind "natural conception donors" -— guys who offer up their sperm the old-fashioned way for women seeking motherhood sans relationship. What positions do they use, and how does the dynamic play out emotionally? Ally gives her two cents on the likely etiquette and logistics.

Later, YMMV explores the shifting social landscape where more women are opting for single motherhood by choice. The team discusses if this trend is part of a broader cultural shift or simply a case of personal preference meeting technological possibility.

Finally, the hosts dive into one listener’s personal dilemma: how to keep a spark alive in a long-term relationship when the sex drive seems unbalanced. Keith, in particular, shares his own experiences with the delicate dance of desire, while Mike and Ally weigh in with practical advice. Should she stay, or should she go?

We dive headfirst into election season stress, sparking debates about voting, political allegiances, and California's unique tax burdens. The conversation gets heated as they explore the surprising reasons why some stick with their coastal roots, even at the cost of thousands. The stakes might be high, but the laughs are even higher as they weigh the pros and cons of state loyalty.

Next up, we step into the sometimes-misunderstood world of foot fetishes. From pedicure preferences to the social stigma of "diddling feet" in porn, the hosts don’t hold back in dissecting what makes a “good foot” and why this particular fetish polarizes so strongly.

The episode wouldn’t be complete without some vibrator talk, as the crew debates whether a buzzing toothbrush is really a worthy bedroom tool. Ally opens up about her skepticism toward vibrators, leading to a spirited conversation about the difference between solo pleasure and partnered intimacy. You might even hear some surprising confessions along the way.

Finally, the episode wraps up with dating mishaps, including tales of oral sex preferences, unorthodox requirements on first dates, and dreams of 20-year-olds that prove age isn't just a number.

Keith kicks things off with the realization that he's been celibate for half a year and asks Mike for his longest dry spell, opening up a deep dive into the strange, hilarious world of post-college dating before apps were even a thing. Spoiler: the secret to success back then apparently involved nothing short of flashy cars and questionable confidence.

The conversation quickly veers into the psychological battlefield that is dating culture, as the duo debate why some guys lie their way to the top while others (including themselves) end up spinning their wheels. Keith reflects on his struggles breaking into conversations with strangers, while Mike philosophizes on the mysterious charm of "Riz" (after first learning what it is). In an unfiltered chat about awkward social dynamics, they wonder if being a charismatic introvert in your forties is more of a feature than a bug.

Somewhere between debating candy-colored apps and chemical addictions, Keith admits to getting way too into Candy Crush, losing hours and, nearly, his dignity, to the game's addictive spell. Mike, ever the wise advisor, encourages him to uninstall but jokingly suggests that at least with cocaine there’s more excitement (and arguably better stories). The two even suggest a government campaign against mobile game addiction, imagining a "Just Say No" to digital candy. Somewhere, Nancy Reagan is probably nodding along in spirit.

This week, I'm going to have ChatGPT give you a summary of what we discussed, mostly because I'm lazy, but also because I just think it's more accurate than I would be! And, I mean, when you've made an episode with such a detailed effort to describe the structure of women's clitorises, what more is there to say?

New Orgasm Discovery: Ally shares a personal experience about discovering a new way to orgasm by being fingered in a different location.

Discussion on Female Anatomy: The hosts discuss the anatomy of the clitoris, with Mike attempting to explain its structure, leading to a playful debate on its positioning.

Porn and Anatomy Examples: The conversation shifts to the hosts sharing anatomical diagrams and explicit videos, sparking some humorous reactions.

Clit Size Comparison: A discussion arises about Ally's clit size compared to those in porn videos, leading to suggestions for measurement and light-hearted banter.

Dick Pics and Sexy Poses: The group talks about the challenges of men taking sexy pictures, comparing them to women’s nudes, and the importance of body positioning.

Online Dating Disappointment: Keith discusses how his interest in a woman from a dating app dropped after seeing her on video, exploring the concept of “catfishing” and curated online images.

Keith’s Preferences in Physical Attractiveness: Ally and Mike comment on Keith's strict standards for physical appearance and the varying levels of tolerance men have for such differences.

Cultural Critique of Dating Strategies: The group debates the implications of women "missing their window" to find a partner and the consequences of modern dating, particularly for women over 30.

"Call Her Daddy" Podcast Criticism: The hosts criticize the popular podcast for promoting misinformation about sex, with a particular disdain for its lack of honesty about women's mental health and its shift away from its original tone.

Podcast Popularity and Society’s Lack of Selectivity: They reflect on how Spotify and other algorithms have led to mass consumption of content without critical thought, contributing to the popularity of shows like "Call Her Daddy."

Ally says she doesn't make efforts to get a guy to tell her he loves her, but it seems to happen anyway. We discuss the detailed parsing of that word that lies at the heart of many women's fantasies.

Another topic: How important are relative arousal levels in sex. Sure, it's irritating to see a guy in a porn is only partially erect, but is there some equivalent for women?

And, what is the motivation behind a woman masturbating during her period? Is sex drive tied mostly to the desire to procreate or other psychological factors?

We get a lot of our questions from Reddit, so for our listeners' enjoyment, here are links to some of the questions we discussed this week:

With election season firmly here, we take up a topic that probably shouldn't be in the news but always is: abortion. Good thing we didn't have a woman on this episode, because women's views on this topic are annoyingly consistent and, frankly, pretty boring.

Now, I like killing people as much as the next guy. I really do. But I'm not sure it's right to expect unrelated folks (doctors, nurses) to facilitate your killin'. It's a shame there isn't some sort of analog to the famous suicide pod for abortion. Then pregnant people (heh) could do it without involving any other people.

To follow on with women's issues, we discuss women who are unhappy with their experiences interacting with male doctors. And, a woman has a horrific experience with anal sex.

Here's the article we discuss about abortion:
