Death, Sex & Money

Porn. It’s something that people use in their most intimate, private moments. It’s a way to acknowledge desire — without any of the attachments of intimacy. For some of you, that's incredibly freeing. For others, it's caused some real problems.

This episode originally aired in 2016 and was produced by Chester Jesus Soria and Katie Bishop
