Making A Martini: Up, Dry, and Straight to the Point

Have things in life that you've always wanted to know more about? Me too! This podcast is my education on topics I want to learn more about, things that I find intriguing, and things that I just find flat out funny. And what's a good podcast conversation without a cocktail or two?...Or five...Listen in, as we talk about a range of topics, from some of the more important issues that we are all facing today, to some of the things you wish we hadn't brought up. Grab your vodka and olives, because this podcast calls for both. https://linktr.ee/makingamartini

My friend Mary joins me to talk about one of the GREATEST shows of all time, Sex Education, all episodes streaming on Netflix. Full disclosure, I believe this episode was recorded while only seasons 1 and 2 were out so it might be dated, but there is a lot of good information in there. And we also tackle the topic of sex education in the American education system (or lack there of).
