Celestial Sex, hosted by Chris Duce and produced by Colin Hatch, is an interview series about love and sex through the lens of Mormon upbringing. Our conversations dive into the confusing nature of growing up in Mormonism where sexuality is taught as something that's beautiful and sacred, but can only be explored after you're married- usually very quickly in between the temple sealing and the reception in the back of an '88 Mercury Tracer. Recorded in Los Angeles, we speak with post-mormons, ex-mormons, jacked-mormons, and active mormons alike about their parents' timid explanations of where babies come from, awkward bishop interviews that mostly focus on masturbation, first sexual experiences, current outlook on sex, and more.
Welcome back to Celestial Sex! Wow, its been a while and everything has changed. We missed you! Our guest this week is the director of the short film "The Touch of the Master's Hand" premiering at the Sundance Film Festival, Mr. Gregory Barnes. In this episode we discuss his upbringing as the son of a Mormon bishop, his friendship with Colin when they were teenagers, the sex talk with his parents, masturbation and pornography, Greg's Mormon mission, BYU film school, divorce, and Greg's queer identity.
