Sex is a messy business, yet very few of us are grossed out by it and most of us are turned on by at least some of the mess. There aren't many of us who like to look at boogers or pus or other things that naturally come from our bodies but sexy fluids? - me-YOW! We delve into this as well as talk about what we want in our smart speakers, how to find a bra that fits (hint: go to r/abrathatfits on Reddit), and how much being an adult sucks. Let us know how you get through adulthood at contact@originstories.fyi.

Ahhh, we are all minty fresh and ready expose your eardrums to some lemony fresh hypotheses.

Let us know what your favorite smell is at contact@originstories.fy.

Not everyone is a party person and that's okay, but why? We all want some form of human contact by why does the party situation bring out the divide between party people and not party people?

Oh goodness.... do we have a lot of nonsense this week. The quarantine is wearing on us and we have officially come the most boring (as have all of you, possibly). This week we just want to talk.

Let us know how you have been holding up at contact@originstories.fyi.

This week the stir crazy is setting in. Scott ruins another man's alone time, we find we are too out of the loop (old) for Billie Eilish, there are more post office rants, and the need to be entertained all the time. Help us to overcome our ennui at contact@originstories.fyi.

Welcome to a brand new week and a discussion of Love and Attraction. It starts out as a sincere question requesting thoughtful answers and quickly turns into the shitshow we all know and love.

Let us know how you are doing at contact@originstories.fyi.

It feels like quarantine is making us less interesting. What is there to talk about when you are confined to your house for most of the time? And how do we release our anxiety?

This week Scott and Dawn give a few tips on being isolated. This was recorded at the beginning of all these shenanigans and more than a bit might be prophetic.

In the times of COVID-19 we think cruise ships suck. Now that we have that off our chests, let's talk about chests! Boobies have our attention this week. We discuss why they are attractive (or not) and what draws us to them. Is it because they embody all that is safe and nurturing or is it just because all that testosterone makes some of us boob crazy? Let us know how you're doing at contact@originstories.fyi.

What is the ideal body type? We discuss this as we ponder all things body image. We wonder how we decide what image to put forth to the world and why are people so gross.

Welcome to the future, fellow humans! When we were young, 2020 felt like a far off date where the life of the Jetsons would be normal. Now we are here and how fantastical is it, really?

Stick around to see if Dawn's true shame is revealed. Let us know if you read the last page of a book at contact@originstories.fyi.

This week is full of stories of sewing, buying craft supplies, and murders over sewing machines. All that fun eventually brings us around to coupons. Why do they have to be so much work?
