RECORD WITH US
We're looking for guests! Here's how it works.
Where do I record?
You record in the comfort and privacy of your own home. Or wherever you like. We do all our recording remotely over the Internet. Wherever you are, please close your windows and turn off any fans or air conditioners to get the best audio quality possible.
How long is a recording session?
Including the tech setup time at the beginning of the session, we can usually get it done in about 90 minutes total.
What equipment and software do I need to have?
You will need to have a Windows, Mac, or Chromebook computer that is capable of running the latest version of Google Chrome browser, and some wired headphones or a wired headset with a good mic. If you're not sure your mic sounds good, we can drop off or mail you one that you can plug into the USB port of your computer, and then you can mail it back to us afterwards.
For audio recording, we use either Zencastr.com or Squadcast.fm, both web-based applications that run inside of Google Chrome and provide video as well as audio -- though we don't save the video! No installation required! And normally it requires no special configuration other than to select the microphone and headphones you'll be using.
I have some accessibility needs. Can you accommodate?
Here are some of the accommodations we already know how to provide:
If you need other accommodations, please let us know and we can figure out how to provide them.
What should I talk about?
The only thing that we insist on is that, since the podcast is called "Sex Is Funny," what you talk about should be sex and it should be funny (haha or weird). It doesn't have to be about funny sex, though!
We'll be asking you to introduce yourself toward the beginning of the recording. It's totally casual and you can say whatever you want, but it'll help us keep our listeners if you can introduce yourself confidently and convey that you have something interesting and unique to offer.
Here are a few suggestions to get you started on your intro:
As for what else to talk about, don't worry too much if you're not sure. We'll ask you questions and we're comfortable letting the conversation go where it wants to. Besides funny stuff, we also like conversations that challenge the dominant paradigm, talking about your most interesting perversions, and comparing notes about polyamory/nonmonogamy. Or you can peruse our list of upcoming topics!
In case it's helpful to listen to the podcast in advance, here's the link on Apple Podcasts.
What should I call myself?
We use fake names and you should too. If you can't think of anything else, how about your porn name? For your first name, use the name of your favorite pet, and for your last name, use the name of the street you grew up on. Then see if you can make it better!
When will it be published?
Our usual recording schedule is to record on Sunday evenings and publish one to two weeks later. If your recording isn't going to follow that schedule, we'll let you know. And if you can't make Sunday evening, we can find another time.
Can I listen to the show before you publish it?
Yes! And we'll even bleep out names or remove sections if you're not happy with them.
Okay, I'm in! What do I do?

Here are some of the accommodations we already know how to provide:
- We can adjust our recording environment to provide automatically generated closed captions
- We can turn off video
- We can record audio from your preferred videoconferencing environment
- We can break a single recording session up into separate shorter sessions
If you need other accommodations, please let us know and we can figure out how to provide them.

Here are a few suggestions to get you started on your intro:
- what would you like folks to know about you: pronouns, ways you identify, etc.
- think of a really funny story about you and sex, and tease us with a few details
- tell us a list of your top three turn-ons, and later we'll ask you about them in more detail
- tell us what kind of animal you are most like in bed, and we'll ask you why later
- think of your top peeves about sex and dating in the pandemic and mention a couple of those
- think of something unusual about your personality that comes out in your relationships and/or sex life, and tell us just a bit about it
