About this episode

Sarah Shahi returns to the podcast to talk about her newest show Sex/Life on Netflix. She and Bridget discuss the cultural impact of the show, the resonance it's had with women, sex as a character on the show, female sexuality, how little room there is for women to be messy in our society, the importance of sex, trust and devotion in a relationship, and taking a chance on yourself. They cover the trials and tribulations of breastfeeding, the difficulties of shooting nude scenes, why women are so hard on each other, Kim Kardashian's support of the show, and Sarah's story of tanking the initial audition for the role of Billie.
