Welcome to Celestial Sex, hosted by Chris Duce and produced by Colin Hatch. This week we forego our typical interview and review the seminary film Godly Sorrow starring Aaron Eckhart with non-LDS comedian Thomas Ouellette. Thomas is part of comedy team Icky Pep and sketch group Edgemont. Godly Sorrow is intended to teach the principle that there is a difference between worldly sorrow (social implications of sin) and godly sorrow (eternal implications of sin/the deep knowledge that you have offended God). It begins with a Bishop's interview, and, well, you should watch it for yourself.

Welcome to Celestial Sex, hosted by Chris Duce and produced by Colin Hatch, where we have frank conversations about sex through the lens of Mormon upbringing. In this episode we talk to Dwight Schmidt about his childhood in the desert of Hesperia, CA where he lived near his big, extended Mormon family with interfaith parents- his Dad was an atheist while he was growing up. Dwight takes us through his teen years where he explored his sexuality and then slowly came to terms with his homosexuality after college. Dwight opens up about reconciling your faith with your sexuality and the confusing nature of navigating your closest relationships when you become more open about your identity.

Welcome to Celestial Sex, hosted by Chris Duce and produced by Colin Hatch, where we have frank discussions about the ways in which we were taught about sex growing up in the Mormon faith. In this episode, we speak with Natalie Neal again in part two of our interview series with her. Chris and Natalie discuss the years that they were married to each other and how the LDS church's teachings and BYU honor code affected their early sex life. They also discuss the challenges of having sex when you are young and Mormon and inexperienced, health problems that led to uncomfortable sex, and the steps they took to improve it. They also discuss some of the issues that led them to get divorced.

Natalie hosts her own podcast, Telephone, that you can download in the iTunes store. In the month of January, she explored feminism through interviews with trans women and made a film about one trans woman's experience called "Bedroom Stories" which you can download from her podcast page.
