Marginalia Podcast returns for it's third and final season. Temar and Aura welcome the original podcast co-host, Freda Raitelu to discuss how life and the show has changed after graduation from Smith College.

Board certified sex therapist Raquel Savage joins Temar and Aura in NYC! We pop open a bottle and tackle Raquel with all sorts of questions ranging from sex work to therapy.

In this first episode of season two, Aura and Temar update us on post graduation life and discuss why everybody wanna be a ho, but don't nobody wanna be a ho.

Temar and Aura catch up, share their summer plans & talk about how women will forever raise men.

Y'all don't love Fabolous; Y'all just hate Black women.

Temar and Aura discuss the problems with gender and misogynoir. We weigh in on Mo'Nique and Lenard aka Charlamegne tha God, and explain why Mo'Nique is right

Listen to Temar and Aura's phone conversation as they discuss new projects, senior spring at Smith, and how difficult it is for Black women to monetize sex work and sex positivity in pop culture.

It ain't always peachy! Temar and Aura invite recurring guest RZA to talk about the dark side of sex work. In this episode we highlight the differences between sex work and sexual exploitation/trafficking. We also discuss what drives the stigma and violence in the industry.

We're back in the studio catching up, and discussing the rules of moving in with a boyfriend. Should you marry first, or have a trial period?
