162: Online Dating - A first-hand account from an expert.

Wednesday Feb 14, 2024

Happy Valentine’s Day!

Since today is the day of love and friendship, I thought it would be a good time to discuss online dating.

Today we are talking to Lee, and this is a fun and informative discussion. Lee has been online dating intermittently for two decades, so this guy has experienced it from the beginning. Any young people listening will be amazed to know what it was like before apps.

I learnt a lot from this interview, and I am sure you will too. Even if you are not in the market for a new partner, this is a fun, interesting episode that delves into how humans interact.

I would love to hear your feedback on this episode, and I really want to interview a female and non-binary person about their online dating experiences, so if this is you or someone you know please contact me.

161: Rehabilitation – A Game Changer! Penile Rehabilitation after prostate cancer treatment. Harden Up Day, Wild Erections and more….

Wednesday Feb 07, 2024

In this episode, we have a chat with Jonathon and Jeanine, all the way from NZ.

Jonathon thought he would get prostate cancer, as his family had a history of it, and he was proactive in getting a diagnosis and watched it for 4 years before finally being advised it was time to remove it in December 2022.

This is an excellent, honest conversation with this lovely couple where they discuss their fears, treatment and recovery journey. They are both open and vulnerable with how this journey affected them as a couple and individually.

Being proactive, Jonathan sort out as much information as he could and that is how he found The Penis Project and Victoria Cullen- A Touchy Subject https://www.atouchysubject.com/

He found these both invaluable resources. He was surprised to find out that despite being offered excellent treatment for the cancer, his aftercare and information provided to enable him to return to ‘normal” was lacking. This led him to enroll in the Online Penile Rehabilitation Program which he found to be an invaluable tool in his recovery process.

Jeanine discusses her reaction to the changes and how she dealt with these and the changes in his responsiveness.

Listen to this episode for these and many more useful tips to navigate this journey.

160: Swinging, a first-hand account.

Wednesday Jan 24, 2024

This week, Melissa and Kate speak to a couple who met at a swinger’s group.

Yes, you heard correctly, swingers.

This is a lifestyle choice that many of our listeners may not know anything about. I think I am open minded and have come across many different types of relationships, but I have to say I learnt a lot in this interview. Kate is a little more naïve, so she was shocked as to what she heard and asked lots of interesting questions. I encourage you all to listen, have a laugh and keep an open mind. This lifestyle may or may not be for you, but this episode is guaranteed to give you a giggle and broaden your horizons.

159: Feelings & Healing – A Chat with Michael Hodge

Wednesday Jan 10, 2024

You've probably heard about stress causing ED, but what about the role of repressed emotions?

In this episode I chat via Zoom with Michael Hodge in Texas, who shares his unique perspective and introduces what he describes as the "root cause model" of sexual dysfunction.

Michael’s personal journey included five years of grappling with severe pelvic pain, persistent urinary issues, and sexual dysfunction in his 20s. After his recovery, he embarked on a quest to uncover the root causes of these complex mind-body issues. In collaboration with renowned pelvic health specialist Dr. Brianne Grogan, Michael developed a program dedicated to helping men go beyond the surface level symptoms and delve deeper into the depths of genitourinary dysfunction.

157: Mismatched libidos - what, why and how.

Wednesday Dec 06, 2023

This week we meet Dr. Elisabeth Gordon, a New York based Integrative sexual health psychiatrist, who is passionate about sexual health education, health and happiness. It was very exciting to speak with Elisabeth, who had some great insights to share on mismatched libidos. This is an issue I am often asked about in clinic, and I reached out to Dr. Elisabeth to see if she could share her knowledge with us.

Dr. Gordon’s philosophy is that - “Sexuality is an essential component of identity and a key element of our lives and intimate relationships, with ourselves and others. In addition, sexual health is intrinsically related to physical and mental health. Being satisfied with your sexuality and sexual interactions can create a sense of happiness, support your well-being and health, and increase satisfaction with relationships. Unfortunately, many people have difficulties with sex, both psychologically and/ or physically and, in turn, these difficulties and dysfunctions can negatively impact your mood, health, and relationships.”

I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I enjoyed speaking with Elisabeth. She is a great communicator and makes a difficult subject all seem so simple.

156: Help, my penis is stuck up! Priapism’s - the what, why, and how.

Wednesday Nov 29, 2023

This week Kendall and Melissa talk about priapism. A priapism is an erection that is sustained fully erect for longer than 2 hours. This sounds like a dream come true if you have been suffering with erectile dysfunction, however it is a painful and scary situation to find yourself in. This is the most common reason men site for not wanting to try injection therapies for erectile dysfunction.

This issue actually occurs very infrequently if the practitioner teaching you injectable therapies is experienced and cautious with initial dosing, and if the patient follows instructions.

In this episode, the details of priapism and how to avoid and resolve this issue are discussed in detail.

If you have erectile dysfunction and would like to try but are scared of this possible side effect, listen here to find out the facts instead of urban myths.

155: An apple a day keeps the Dr away…

Wednesday Nov 22, 2023

Men’s health and the importance of having a regular primary health care practitioner

Today we speak to GP Dr Lloyd about all things men. So when should a man start having regular checkups?

According to Dr Lloyd, “No set age but the sooner the better. “

Men and women are different, women have time points in their lives where they have to see a GP such as hormonal changes, childbearing, breast checks etc. but for men it is different and often health is treated like firefighting. Men just go to the Dr when they have a fire that needs putting out. In this episode we look at why starting earlier is a better option for men, the health system, and their loved ones.

Dr Lloyd says:
“So medicine's complicated, it's fascinating, but it just shows how one thing, one issue needs a whole wider approach, not just deal with the problem, and brush under the carpet and move on. I think that's what guys do wrongly, isn't it? They'll see a GP; we call it firefighting. So, you quickly put that fire out, and actually, there's an inferno going on behind. So yeah, it's complicated and that's the beauty of medicine.”

He also suggests a great read by Caitlin Moran called “What About Men?” which I have since read and is great.

Finally, we talk about his recent trigger to look after his own health.

Lloyd has decided to open a new clinic called Man Health to offer a slightly different approach to assisting men in their long-term health goals, listen to this episode to find out more.

Hopefully this episode will get you motivated to see a primary health practitioner for regular overhaul and tune up if you haven’t already.

154: The Solo Sidekick - ‘The Eureka’ prostate patient

Wednesday Nov 15, 2023

In this episode, we revisit Anthony the Eureka patient from episode 112 and 113. Anthony was diagnosed with prostate cancer in August 2022 at age 53. He was determined to get through it with the best possible outcome. He decided to document his journey in film and post on YouTube, in the hope of helping other men and their partners in the same situation.
Jo Milios interviewed Anthony in December 2022 to hear all about his early days recovering and today we will see how he is going another year down the track. He is now cancer free, with almost no side effects.

He has also written a song about prostate cancer which we play at the intro and outro of this episode.

In my experience many men tell me tell that their life has been improved by their prostate cancer journey from various aspects, improved health, rekindling of past hobbies and interests and a deepening of relationships. Anthony is one of these guys who has turned this experience into a positive. I hope you enjoy this episode. If you would like to hear more music from Anthony and see his YouTube diary, please see links below.
