1. The Libido

Aired: 1/22/2016

When we talk about libido, it?s often described as an impulse linked to our hormones. But how does it really work? Lili meets with Normand Voyer, a professor of organic chemistry at Laval University, to concoct a love potion. What is the connection between our thoughts and what happens physically when it comes to sex and desire? A psychotherapist guides us towards the answer to this question, as Lily gently explores the world of sex addicts, asexuals, and the polyamorous.

2. The Orgasm

Aired: 1/29/2016

When it comes to the orgasm, we know it feels good as soon as we have one. But we can?t explain why it feels so good. In this episode, Lili meets with a renowned professor of neuroscience and psychology at Concordia University, who has been studying this subject for years with lab rats. She also works with a sex coach to find the G-spot, and meets with a tantric sex teacher and her students.

3. Masturbation

Aired: 2/5/2016

Masturbation has many benefits. It reduces stress, promotes sleep, and calms migraines and menstrual pain. Masturbation stimulates the heart rate as much as a brisk walk. Lili meets with three Montreal girls who are exploring masturbation with their website and magazine devoted to the subject, Magic Caresses. Everybody does it, but the where and the how are unique to everyone - and Lili helps reveal the mystery.

4. The Vulva

Aired: 2/12/2016

The vulva has a way of making people uncomfortable. Just saying the word makes some people uncomfortable. We can talk about breasts and the vagina no problem, so what is it about the vulva? Lili explores the vulva in all its glory by making an appointment with her gynaecologist. What better way to interview than lying on a doctor?s table? She also meets with a transsexual to talk about vaginoplasty, and with a porn actress to better understand the phenomenon of female ejaculation.

5. Fetishism

Aired: 2/19/2016

Is fetishism a sexual perversion? Are we all a little fetishist to some degree or another? In this episode, we take you by the hand and immerse you in this little-known universe laced with misconceptions. Lili meets with neuropsychologist Christian Joyal, who conducted a study on the subject for the prestigious Journal of Sexual Medicine. To test the theory, Lili visits a daycare for adults, observes rats dressed in tiny lab coats, and meets with a couple that likes to play with ropes. Don’t worry; it’s all done with love!

6. The Penis

Aired: 2/26/2016

Is there such a thing as the perfect penis? Lili launches her investigation by meeting with biologists to talk about the penis in mammals and insects. Penis size and performance are common obsessions among men. We talk about the Quebec porn actor with the biggest penis in the sex industry. And to complete her tour of man’s most precious organ, Lili meets with a pro-foreskin activist.
