Welcome to Episode 30 of Open Bedroom Doors—where we mix real relationship talk with humor, honesty, and just enough edge to keep things interesting. Also, we just found out our episode is the 2026 AASECT.org Podcast Award Winner! This show is recognized by the National Association for Sex Educators, Counselors and Therapists! We are so grateful for this award!

This one? It’s playful, practical, and a little bit dangerous (in the best way).

👇 Here’s what you’ll get in this episode:

🔪 Segment 1: Sex Positions (Kitchen Edition) “Sex in the kitchen with a knife”… yeah, we went there.

But don’t worry—we’re not here to send you to the ER 😅 We’re talking about: - How to navigate intimacy with a jittery or reactive partner - Better ways to flirt and build tension safely - How to read the room (and your partner!) so things stay fun—not freaky

Think: playful connection, not accidental injury.

🎤 Segment 2: Keeping Love Strong with Monica Tanner Featuring relationship expert Monica Tanner (check her out 👉 https://MonicaTanner.com)

This conversation is packed with gold: - How to cultivate curiosity instead of getting stuck in conflict - Ways to build respect and understanding in your relationship - How to keep the spark alive long-term (without forcing it)

If you’ve ever felt stuck in the same argument loop—this is your reset.

🛏️ Segment 3: Happy Endings (In a Real Bed!) Filmed in an actual bed (thanks to Mattress Dogzzz 🙌 👉 https://mattressdogzzz.com)

I answer the question: 👉 What is the best sex position… in an actual bed?

Simple question, surprisingly layered answer. ✨ About the Show: Open Bedroom Doors is all about helping couples go from roommates… to soulmates—by making sex and relationship conversations normal, honest, and even a little fun.
