ClosetEd

What if queerness was infinite, instead of limited by the strict rules and norms of our patriarchal world? What if we abandoned the binary of tops and bottoms, gays and straights, women and men, and embraced the idea--nay, the reality!--that all of us are fluid, ever-changing beings with deep wellsprings of desire and turn-on we would never know about if we didn't get curious and explore? I talk about all this and more with my guest this week, James Patrick Nelson, or as I call him, Jamie. In this episode: Why Jamie thinks the world would be better if more straight men got fucked in the assThe surprising emotional power of being sexually receptiveJamie’s chaotic, joyful anal debut story (yes, it involved a threesome)Why “top” and “bottom” are wildly insufficient ways to describe human desireThe queer loneliness of trying to fit into tiny little boxesHow the pandemic changed Jamie’s understanding of intimacy, beauty, and self-worthWhy joyful, consensual anal sex is still almost absent from mainstream mediaThe difference between humiliation and vulnerability—and why patriarchy confuses the twoJamie’s very horny origin story for wanting a tattooA sexy game for exes that honestly might fix modern datingWhy the best sex is often about feeling truly seen and worshippedThe making of Jamie’s sensual new indie film Something to Surprise MeHow queer people are reclaiming sexuality from shame, binaries, and bad storytellingAss worship, emotional intimacy, and the radical act of yielding with joySUPPORT SOMETHING TO SURPRISE ME ON SEED & SPARK: https://seedandspark.com/fund/something-to-surprise-me?token=4de1630be7d5a70c7cd806c60339bcf9a171bb0ac77ec1d99238fc1dbd4bc803#storyWATCH FOR YEARS TO COME: https://www.youtube.com/watch?si=-Tu7iceWO2px5pPU&v=jMrHzo03fxE&feature=youtu.beALL THINGS JAMIE: https://www.james-patrick-nelson.com/SUPPORT THE SHOW, CUTIE PATOOT!Become a paying Substack subscriber: https://samiamounts.substack.comVenmo Samia: @Samia-Mounts / https://account.venmo.com/u/Samia-MountsCashApp Samia: $SamiaMounts / https://cash.app/$SamiaMountsThank you, pinecones!

In this episode, I ask myself why, oh whyyy, am I so weird with women? I love them, I've known I'm attracted to them both sexually and romantically since I was a kid, and yet I've only managed to have one relationship with a woman that only lasted six weeks in college and otherwise have been a massive failure in the lady-dating department.And I'm not alone. I've heard lots of bisexual girlies talking about how they don't even feel like they can claim the bisexual label because they almost exclusively date and sleep with men. Most of the bi women I know feel they aren't "bi enough."In this episode:I’ve wanted women my whole life—and stayed silentOne intense, six-week relationship that blew me open…and shut me downWhy men feel “easier” (and what that says about me)The part I hate admitting: I’m the one getting in my own wayIs this a me problem…or a bi girl problem?And the twist I did NOT see comingRead the original essay on my Substack: https://samiamounts.substack.com/p/why-am-i-so-weird-with-womenScreen For Years to Come: https://james-patrick-nelson.com/for-years-to-comeSUPPORT THE SHOW, CUTIE PATOOT!Become a paying Substack subscriber: https://samiamounts.substack.comVenmo Samia: @Samia-Mounts / https://account.venmo.com/u/Samia-MountsCashApp Samia: $SamiaMounts / https://cash.app/$SamiaMountsThank you, pinecones!

Fox is a happily married parent with a normal work and home life...and a spicy social life with his kinky friends. Ooh la la!In this audio-only episode with Happy Slut's very first anonymous guest, we get into what happens when a self-described “regular Joe” follows his curiosity into the world of kink play and wildly honest connection—and finds out it sets him free.We talk about:The super-slow, podcast-fueled awakening that led him into kinkHow rope nights and kink clubs can foster communityThe surprisingly complex question: what even counts as sex?How he navigated opening things up with his wife (without blowing up his marriage)Why “you don’t have to have sex” was the gateway that made everything possibleThe ethics of play: communication, consent, and not being an absolute menaceHaving multiple play partners…and realizing you can actually do something about your crushesThe joy of helping people live out fantasies they never thought they’d get to experienceWhy exploration, curiosity, and emotional safety matter way more than labelsThis one is funny, thoughtful, unexpectedly wholesome, and just the right amount of chaotic.Basically: what if you could look like a regular person on the outside…and still be out here living your weird little dream life?Oh wait...that's you? Yeah, baby pinecone, that's ALL of us.Mentioned in this episode:Pink Kink Podcast: https://pinkkinkpodcast.com/The Kink Consultant Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-kink-consultant/id1766435920SUPPORT THE SHOW!Subscribe to Samia's Substack: https://samiamounts.substack.comVenmo Samia: @Samia-Mounts / https://account.venmo.com/u/Samia-MountsCashApp Samia: $SamiaMounts / https://cash.app/$SamiaMountsI love you with the power of a thousand magic wands!xoxo,SamiaMentioned in this episode:Get 15% off Kenneth Play's Beyond Satisfied Pro course at www.kennethplay.com/closetedGet a 15% discount on all FirmTech products!Use code CLOSETED at check-out.

Callie Little is a polyamorous, pansexual witch who illustrated and co-authored my favorite tarot deck, Every Little Thing You Do is Magic, and its incredible companion book, which offers readers the opportunity to deepen their relationship with the cards and their own intuition. I reached out to them to replace two cards my dog had chewed up and they responded saying they checked out the pod and wanted to come on if I'd have them. IF I'D HAVE THEM?! I melted and exploded and said absolutely yes, thank you, Universe, and the results were glorious.In this episode:going from “I’ll try anything once” to… wait, I actually have standards now??why you don’t have to earn your desires or make them make sense to anyone elsethe difference between real connection and just doing what you think you’re supposed to dothe subtle ways patriarchy trains you to give up your autonomy and call it lovethat moment when something clicks and you’re like… oh, this isn’t a choice, this is a cagehow to stay open without ignoring every red flag in front of your facea definition of cheating that might rearrange your brain a littlewhat it actually looks like to be yourself first, even in a long-term relationshiphow to stop spiraling in shame and start getting curious insteadwhy you keep wanting people who aren’t that great for you (and what that’s really about)building relationships based on choice instead of fear, obligation, or habita recurring theme: you’re allowed to want what you want. yes, even that.also:tarot as a tool for figuring your shit out (more useful than you think)book recs that will absolutely mess with your understanding of love in a good wayIt's SO GOOD, pinecones!FOLLOW CALLIE:Callie's Instagram: @goshcallieCallie's Substack: The Village WitchCallie's podcast: The Pocket Coven (apologies for calling it the Pocket Oracle in the episode!)Purchase the Every Little Thing You Do is Magic Tarot Deck and Companion BookBook Callie for tattoo workAll things Callie: www.callielittle.comBook & Substack recommendations in this episode:The Ethical Slut by Dossie Easton and Janet HardyMatriarchal Blessing on Substack by Celeste DavisSpells for Transmuting Limerence Into Liberation by Yumi SakugawaLove in a F*cked Up World by Dean SpadePolysecure by Jessica FernPolywise by Jessica FernOpen Deeply by Kate LoreeAdult Braces by Lindy WestSUPPORT THE SHOW!Subscribe to Samia's SubstackVenmo: @Samia-MountsCashApp: $SamiaMountsLove ya, pinecones!xoxo,SamiaMentioned in this episode:Get 15% off Kenneth Play's Beyond Satisfied Pro course at www.kennethplay.com/closetedGet a 15% discount on all FirmTech products!Use code CLOSETED at check-out.Get a 15% discount on all FirmTech products!Use code CLOSETED at check-out.

This week, I take a listener advice question from Ben (not his real name), who asked if he's a "sick freak" because he felt arousal instead of jealousy when he caught his ex-wife cheating with his best friend.

I am extra excited about this week's interview, mostly because it was the result of me literally fangirl-ing my way into Charlotte Shane's DMs after reading her incredible memoir, An Honest Woman: A Memoir of Love and Sex Work. Her book tells the story of her years working as a high-end escort in nuanced and poetic detail, and in this interview, we chat about what gave her the courage to pursue sex work at age 20, why she loved it so much she kept doing it well into her 30s, and her unique insights on humanity, sex, relationships, and what is actually "normal" for human beings. I'm SO proud of this interview. Enjoyyy, and get Charlotte's book!

Thank you to all the listeners who sent in questions for my advice series! Here is the very first one I've chosen to feature on this series, mostly because it's a really common question I've heard from folks who are questioning whether some form of nonmonogamy might be right for them. Listener Preston* asked:My wife and I are in an interesting part in our relationship that we both consider monogamous. After being intimate with just each other for 13 years, we have started talking more openly about our desires. We fell into a "normal" rhythm when it came to our sex life. Opening up about other desires, seemed dangerous, and specifically on my end, felt like they coild shatter the relationship. However, after having honest conversations, I found that she had surprisingly been open to just about all ideas. One we talked about was inviting another person in to bed for us to enjoy mutually. What is your take on the healthiness of this and the sustainability of it for a relationship such as ours? How would you go about setting healthy ground rules that makes us all feel comfortable including the potential third person?How do you open conversations with people about this?* Name has been changed.Thank you, Preston for this wonderful question! I did my best to answer it, and I want to open this up to my amazing audience of listeners. If you have a response to Preston that I didn't cover in this bonus episode, please oh please send it to me as a comment on social media, a DM, or in an email to [email protected], and I'll include it in an upcoming bonus episode!Follow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/samia.mounts/Follow ClosetEd on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/closetedwithsamia/If you are getting something valuable out of this show, please consider SUPPORTING ME FINANCIALLY, my sweet pinecones!

I am tha-rilled to bring you my looooong, super-chatty, unfiltered conversation with Mattie Jo Cowsert, an actor and author based in New York City. Mattie Jo wrote a memoir called God, Sex, and Rich People, in which she documents her deconstruction from evangelical Christianity and purity culture to become the most wholesome sex-positive activist you've ever encountered. Her pitch of a TV show version of her book won the Audience Choice Award at the Yale Innovation Summit (!!!) and she's now developing it into a one-woman theater piece as an artist in residence at Collective Connecticut. This woman is a powerhouse! And damn funny to boot!In this episode, we discuss:Mattie Jo's origin story as a born theater kid with a pastor dad in a heavily evangelical community.How her sex education consisted mostly of scare tactics but her parents were a little looser about it than the community around them.How making gay friends at theater camp made her question the existence of Hell.Her move to New York City, and why having Jewish and Muslim friends blew open her worldview and made her leave evangelicalism for good.Her "Rubble Years" and the bad experiences she had when she finally made her sexual debut without any idea of how to handle things.How she eventually developed her own sexual ethic and value system around sex and relationships and wrote an amazing dang book about all this! I just love her.Buy God, Sex, and Rich People and learn more about Mattie Jo here: www.mattiejocowsert.comSubscribe to Mattie Jo's Substack: https://mattiejocowsert.substack.com/Follow MJ on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mattiejocowsert/Follow MJ on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mattiejocowsquirtThat's it for this week!

Okay, pinecones, I am getting real personal with you in this bonus interview! Adam Darrow is a man of many extreme talents - house-building, extreme sports including free solo rock-climbing, tankless scuba diving, and BASE jumping, and you know, running tech companies, whatevs, no big deal - and he recently published a memoir about his foray into extreme non-monogamy with a woman named Jane, who told him up front that she has LOTS of casual sex and never plans to change that for any relationship. The book is called Seek the Risk, and in it, Darrow provides the most clear-eyed perspective I've ever encountered on the struggles that men face in nonmonogamous relationships with sexually voracious women...women like, oh y'know, ME. We have a fascinating conversation in which I reveal some intimate details from my own life, and Adam dispenses wisdom that is invaluable to anyone who's curious about the pleasures and pitfalls of nonmonogamy.Learn more about Adam and buy the book: www.seektherisk.netIf you are a Spotify subscriber, the audiobook of Seek the Risk is free with your subscription!xoxo,SamiaMentioned in this episode:BetterSleep FREE TrialGet 30 days of BetterSleep for free with link www.bettersleep.com/closeted.Get 30 days of BetterSleep FREE with link www.bettersleep.com/closeted Get 15% off Kenneth Play's Beyond Satisfied Pro course at www.kennethplay.com/closeted

This week, I bring you another snippet of my origin story, with the sordid tale of the first time I confronted my own feelings of rage-y, crazy jealousy in my very first healthy, functional nonmonogamous relationship. The number one question people curious about nonmonogamy ask me is, "How do you deal with your jealousy?" This story answers that question and also gives you some insight into how to navigate jealousy in your own relationships, whether or not they are monogamous. Enjoy, pinecones! And as always, let me know your thoughts, send me your requests for advice, and send over your own anonymous confessions to [email protected].

This week, I'm bringing you my feisty, flirty, rambly conversation with comedian and podcaster Billy Procida, host of the Manwhore Podcast, in which he has vulnerable, funny, sex-positive conversations with all sorts of fascinating people. I have become a devoted listener. Billy also hosts the Naked Comedy Show, which is exactly what it sounds like and has monthly shows in Brooklyn (next one is February 12, 2026), as well as upcoming shows in LA (Jan 17, 2026) and Philadelphia (Feb 14, 2026). More info and tickets available at manwhorepod.com. In this interview, we discuss Billy's origin story as a kid who got bullied a lot and how he grew up to be a guy with enough confidence to do stand-up comedy naked and show up regularly to sex parties. We discuss body image, consent issues and the gray areas that can arise in sexual encounters when consent isn't properly sought out, nonmonogamy and polyamory, what can go very right (and very, very wrong) at a fully naked comedy show, and lots, lots more. It's a fun convo and I hope you dig it, pinecones.For all things Billy Procida, go to manwhorepod.com.xoxo,SamiaSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.Mentioned in this episode:BetterSleep FREE TrialGet 30 days of BetterSleep for free with link www.bettersleep.com/closeted.Beyond Satisfied Pro Video CourseGet 15% off the Beyond Satified Pro video course from Kenneth Play and take your sex life to a whole new level: www.kennethplay.com/closeted

Amanda Dames is a certified sex and relationship coach who specializes in helping couples navigate kink dynamics within their relationships. She's also a prolific content creator, with a Substack, popular accounts on Instagram and TikTok, and a podcast of her own, The Kink Consultant, available wherever you get your podcasts. In this bonus episode, we discuss Amanda's origin story, from her days working on Wall Street while moonlighting as a professional dominatrix, to her decision to leave corporate America to pursue sex and relationship coaching full time. We talk about how big the umbrella of kink really is, and how many common sexual practices and desires fall within it.

Kathy Kay is the anonymous host of the Strictly Anonymous Podcast, where anonymous guests call in and reveal their sexiest secrets, and she is an absolute delight to talk to about all things sex. I frickin' love herrrr! In this episode, we talk about Kathy's origin story and how she grew into the sex-positive, non-judgemental vixen she is today, her take on what is actually normal in human sexuality (hint: there IS no normal!), and we dive into some of the wildest stories from her new book, Strictly Anonymous Confessions: Secret Sex Lives of Total Strangers, available for purchase wherever books are sold (link to purchase on Amazon below).

Luna Robbie is an artist, podcaster, sex worker, and magical enchantress who had me charmed from the very beginning of our delightful hour-long conversation. Her podcast, Sex Stories, is a deep dive into the naughtiest secrets of her anonymous guests and has been releasing episodes for seven years, and her work as a courtesan at Sheri's Ranch in Nevada has helped inform (and finance) her mission to use judgement-free, sex-positive conversations to spread "ripples of love" throughout the world. In this interview, we discuss Luna's origin story of feeling rejected and confused about sex, how she once shaved her head and traveled in South America for six months to figure out why she was so unhappy, why she eventually started her podcast, and how getting the gig at Sheri's Ranch was something she and her BFF did together on a whim.
