My, what a fabulously GAY show we have for you this week!

First, a woman notices that though normally heterosexual, she tends to go gay at certain times during her menstrual cycle. Spooky.

A GGG gay man would like to indulge his lover’s piss fetish, but wants to make sure it’s safe first.

A man who was sexually abused by his father as a child has made a new friend. The hitch? This friend appears on the sex-offender registry.

A father is miffed because his 12-year-old son who just came out won’t dish about boys with him.

Bareback porn—any ethical problems here?

A young man has gained 100 pounds. Hear Dan’s reasonable diet/lifestyle regimen.

And more. There’s always more!

It’s time again to suck on a lozenge of Your Radio Sucks and soothe the ragged edges of your sore throat with cooling new music. Listen to your host Ned Lannamann lose his voice as he plays songs by Lykke Li (pictured), Meho Plaza, Fleet Foxes, Shy Child, Au, the Last Shadow Puppets, Nik Freitas, No Age, and Tim Fite. Ah! That feels better already.
