⚠️ Warning: this episode is X rated and NSFW
This week on It’s Ben A Week, Ben is joined by his friend — Joy — for the dirtiest, wildest, and most X-rated episode in the history of the show. And before they even get to the sex talk, Ben has a Thanksgiving meltdown to unload.
The episode opens with Ben’s Thanksgiving Eve nightmare:
A scammer stole $1,000 from him — and did it so convincingly that even Joy admitted she would’ve fallen for it. Ben walks Joy step-by-step through the scam, including:
- How the scammer spoofed Order number
- How they knew his name, order number, voicemail, tracking, and total
- How they walked him through fake Zelle “refund codes”
- Why Wells Fargo is still investigating
- And how the scammer called him again to try to steal his home address
Then the episode shifts into the Naughty Secret Santa the two are preparing for — including:
- Joy’s late sexual awakening
- Why she never talked about sex growing up
- How shame, religion, family, and insecurity shaped her early adulthood
- Porn, OnlyFans, and the difference between fantasy and real intimacy
- Why communication and consent matter more than anything
- The danger of unsafe hookups and saying “no”
- Ben’s near-traumatic HIV scare in college
- The reality of dating apps, scams, and safety for women
Ben and Joy talk openly, honestly, and hilariously about everything most people are scared to admit — proving that talking about sex doesn’t have to be taboo, shameful, or secret.
It’s the most unfiltered, eyebrow-lifting, educationally chaotic episode yet.
