Hello and welcome back to the Owning Your Sexual Self podcast! This week I’ve got Dr. Jordan Barber on the show and I’m so excited for you to hear this one. Dr. Barber is a doctor of acupuncture and oriental medicine who specializes in pain and takes a biomechanics driven approach to pelvic health. He works closely with pelvic floor physical therapists and brings a much needed focus to men’s pelvic health, an area that’s often overlooked and misunderstood. His work with dry needling and the nervous system offers a different way of understanding symptoms that people aren’t getting clear answers for, and you can feel how passionate he is about bringing more awareness to this space.
In this episode:
- Men’s pelvic health and why it’s often overlooked

Kingdom of Fraud
It’s the unlikeliest of criminal partnerships: a devout polygamist from an insular Utah sect joining forces with a shadowy Armenian tycoon from LA. The result - a billion dollar fraud conspiracy. In Kingdom of Fraud, investigative reporter Michele McPhee traces the origins of the extraordinary alliance between Jacob Kingston and Levon Termendzhyan. Together, the two men trigger the largest tax investigation in American history and weave around themselves a web of dirty cops, influential political relationships and transnational money laundering. All this is set against the backdrop of Jacob Kingston’s clan – The Order. A powerful and secretive polygamist organization in Salt Lake City. To whom Jacob is desperate to prove his worth.
