Introducing Hard Conversations, a podcast about male sexuality. Therapist Tim Norton expands the conversation about male sexuality, adds context to why we struggle as a society to have hard conversations and breaks down how in a sex-positive environment there really is no room for taboos, judgment, or shame when it comes to penises.
Ep 27 - A Top Sex Expert Discusses Impact of Social Media and Porn on Erections
Today Tim has a wide-ranging conversation with Dr Chris Donaghue, a therapist, educator and host of the relaunched "Loveline" radio show. They talk about how body positivity impacts sexuality, being sexually honest and authentic when hooking up with someone you meet online and alternatives to an erect penis during a sexual experience. They also cover shame, prioritizing pleasure, how much porn everybody is watching, and how culture and social media invade the bedroom.

Ep 26 - What a placebo effect expert says about the power of beliefs on erections?
Tim has a unique conversation with Dr. Luana Colloca - a top scientist in placebo studies - who shares insights on how our brains filter our experience of reality. This has profound implications for the ways men can get in their heads about erections, and how different aspects of our sexual environments can trigger negative placebo effects. The placebo effect can also have major impacts on pelvic pain. For clarity, an episode transcript is also available on the website.
