  • 31. Good things cum in threes

    58:15
    Just in case you needed a sexier threesome than Abby, Sam, and a microphone, we’re bringing you some questionable threesome erotica. Sam reads two short stories and we discuss threesome logistics, ponder the sexual politics of acronyms and consider the physical possibility of fitting someone’s entire boob in a mouth.References for nerdy sluts:Scoats, Ryan.
