Get The Podcast! Advice Goddess Radio: Post-Oscars Sex Show With Therapist Michele Weiner Davis
Okay, so it's not an actual sex show but a show on how to bring the sex back into your relationship and manage things if one of you wants it more than the other (or if one of you wants it and the other wants it not at all).
It was really interesting and unlike all of those "sexperts" who basically tell you to put on a nurse's uniform and have at it, Michele Weiner Davis gives real, practical, pragmatic solutions for this problem -- ones that take into account how people really are and how life actually works.
Michele Weiner Davis is the author of an extremely helpful book, The Sex-Starved Marriage: Boosting Your Marriage Libido, that I've referenced in my column a number of times and recommended to readers.

And don't miss the podcast of my very interesting show with Dr. Barry Schwartz, author of The Paradox of Choice, on how we can actually have too much choice, how that messes us up, and how to manage choice:

Next week a very exciting guest, one of the rockstars of anthropology, Dr. Robert Trivers, has agreed to be on my show. We'll be talking about his new book on deception and self-deception, The Folly of Fools: The Logic of Deceit and Self-Deception in Human Life, which I heard him talk most entertainingly and compellingly on recently at Cal Tech. All of you who listen to my show get to hear him -- and maybe even call in and ask him a question. A real treat.
Advice Goddess Radio -- "Nerd Your Way To A Better Life!" with the best brains in science.







I listened to the first part of the Dr. Barry Schwartz interview on my way home tonight and already found a great example of what he is talking about -- NetFlix! It is easy to load up a queue of movies/shows. It is easy to choose from among the 3 disks we have on hand. Try to pick from among 50 in our Instant View queue or the thousands not in the queue, but just as available?? It takes forever to pick just one (and more often than not, it wasn't one already in the queue)!
I can't wait to continue listening on my way to work in the morning.

Terrific show, Amy.
I remember seeing Eliot Spizter's photo with his wife standing by his man when he resigned from his job.
I think it was Crid who pointed out that they looked like a couple who did not have sex with each other for the last ten years.
It is difficult to stay faithful when the person, who has a low sex drive is in charge of sexual relationship in marriage.
After all, I started to understand why people cheat on their spouses.
