If you didn't consider the title of this episode disclaimer enough, consider yourself DISCLAIMED: this episode is about SEX and we kindly ask that children, prudes, exes and immediate family members steer clear of this one. Now, for the rest of you perverts, are you ever in for a treat! Melody and best bud/former cohost, Sarah Wright, are sitting down with Casey Easton of Erotic Embodiment for the Teach Me Tiger season finale to talk all things ORAL SEX and more! We cover cunnilingus and blowjobs, obvi...but also, we get balls-deep in deep throating, gag-prevention, communication for lubrication, 69ing, dating as a confident grown-ass woman, how to relax and enjoy oral, consent...and then! A real live dick shows up to the party and gives us the penile perspective. What a sexy show, what a hot finale!

Teach Me Tiger

69 – I WANT A D*CK (Oral Sex w/ Casey Easton)

Viara Mileva, PhD is back, with our good buddy Liz Cooper, to unpack childhood attachment styles, and pontificate on how they affect us and our interpersonal relationships as adults. Viara is wearing her former academic hat (she works now as a photographer,) as she spent years in the lab studying how primary caregivers and small children interacted and bonded (or in some cases, how they didn't do those things.) We break down the different attachment styles, how they're formed, and what they mean. We discuss whether one can work around these labels, or even overcome them. We also get into the importance of taking these labels with a grain of salt, and recognizing the complex series of factors that go into any and all of our behaviours. Attachment styles are but a piece of the puzzle, but they're an important piece and we've all got them. Let's get vulnerable, baby! We do mention several books on the subject. If you'd like to delve deeper, we recommend these: Attached by Amir Levine and Rachel Heller, The Jealousy Cure by Robert Leahy and Paul Gilbert, and Wired For Dating by Stan Tatkin.

68 – So Why Do I Feel Like A Psychopath? (Attachment Theory w/ Viara Mileva)

Back by popular demand, it's Melody's father Justin - and just in time for Father's Day. He's been working on a list of tales yet untold, and he's here to share them with us all (ever lucky!) Justin has been interviewed in several previous episodes of Teach Me Tiger - Episode 44, My Daddy Is A Ballerina, Episode 55, Trying Different Things, and Episode 58, The Hippie Years - telling stories from his wildly eventful and interesting life. Justin felt he'd left some good ones out, so here we are! Let's all hope he remembers more tales that he must recant in another future episode. In this episode, we hear a bit about Justin's own father, debacles onstage, his libidinous pursuits, and more. He's charming as ever. Enjoy and Happy Fathers Day!

67 – Stories With My Pa (featuring Justin Starkweather)

Originally aired February 28, 2019. Hustle, hustle, hustle, baby! Kim Murphy, the ultimate healing hustler, is here to help us simplify our highly saturated lives. How do we tune in, instead of tuning out? What do we really want? Where in our lives are we leaking energy? WHO ARE WE?? AND WHERE THE HELL AM I??? After a real fun game of Icebreakers, we dive deep into the Millennial-and perhaps Xennial-condition that we’ve dubbed Millennialitis. We talk about detecting, avoiding and dealing with BURNOUT. And Kim gives us some great advice on how to romance ourselves to up-level our energy, restore vitality and improve our overall mental health.

Vintage Classic – 26 – Millennialitis (Self-Care w/ Kim Murphy)

Best friends make the best fun, and we've all missed the BEST FUN with former co-host of the show and Melody's longtime good buddy, ELIZABETH COOPER! (Insert airhorns here.) This episode is a bit of a departure, in that it's not educational in the slightest, but you know what?! It's a global pandemic, the world's on fire, and we're going rogue! In today's epi, we are reflecting on the last 13 months of pandemmie life - unexpected perks, phone addiction, pandemic-tainment, a mental health corner, personal growth, excessive alone time, and wild new hobbies. We also go through a few of Arthur Aron's '36 Questions To Fall In Love' and not only do we fall deeper in love, but we get real vulnerable and intimate. Oh, and funny! We get funny, too.

66 – Quarantine Ketchup (Pandemmie Check-In w/ Liz Cooper)

Originally aired July 12, 2018. Holy Moly, it’s the Fab Four (Feminist Fathers.)

These progressive pappies sit with us to talk about impending fatherhood, filthy earholes, invisible housewives, coffee romance and BBQ bromance. Swooooon!!!

65 – Power Embarrassed (Comedy w/ Claire Haus)

Lemme axe you something: have you ever been curious about why axe murder is such a thing in pop culture? We were curious too, and although we may not have all the answers, we have a great time pontificating on the question. Meet Scarlet Christiaans. She's pod host Melody's dear childhood friend. She's also very funny and smart and obviously devastatingly good-looking. In this episode, Melody and Scarlet talk about the history of the axe and axe murder. They tell the fascinating stories of the Villisca Murders and Lizzie Borden. There's also a fun game of Would You Rather - Axe Edition. It's a real axe-citing episode!

64 – Can I Axe You A Question? (Axe Murder w/ Scarlet Christiaans)

They're BACK! It's Sarah Wright and your host Melody slinging salacious jokes and talking tattooing. If you forgot or if you're just tuning in, Sarah co-created the show with Melody and it's always a great time when the original dream team is reunited. We learn about some different types of tattoos, misconceptions about stick-n-poke, truly wild tattoo stories, tattoo history, and Sarah even gives us actionable pointers on getting into the art. So grab your rusty olfa knife and get out your ink - we're going to Tatooine!

63 – On Tatooine (Tattooing w/ Sarah Wright)

Was 2020 a dumpster fire? Yes. Yes, it was. But you know what? We managed to release some pretty stellar episodes in spite of all of that. There were technical challenges as we moved to remote recording for all of our guests. There were social challenges as well - as in, we all wanted to play with our friends! Listening through the episodes we released this past year, however, helped us remember that 2020 wasn't a total wash. It had its peaks (and valleys) and it wasn't totally traumatic to revisit. This 2020 round-up features clips on heavy metal, conspiracies, Mormons, sex tips, dolphins on drugs, American Pie, puppets, serial killers and more! Happy New Year, Tigers! 

62 – Twenty-Something (2020 Year In Review)

Online dating! What a racket! Kim Angell (from Episode 4 - Body Break!) guest hosts on this episode. We discuss our own experiences, share some of your stories, set up a freshie fresh Tinder profile, demystify some 2020 online dating slang, sanitize some glory holes and even discuss some ways to hack the system and make your profile stand out. Also, Kim wants to set you up on a date. Apply within! Kim wants your spare holiday change and goodwill to go to Lanark County Interval House, at https://lcih.org.
