[Contains explicit content] When it comes to live storytelling shows, stories that end in bad sex are much more common than those that end well. Which makes sense—it's hard to come off looking good with a story about how great you are in the sack. But on this episode of Hot Mic, we'll hear two good sex stories where everyone leaves happy and maybe even a little better off. Our first storyteller, Waverly Jane, moves from her conservative upbringing to a place that is both very sexy and very cold.

When applied appropriately, a little shame can be hot. But all too often when shame enters a sexy situation, it's not the fun kind.

Get ready for two hilarious live stories about baby makery, curated by host Dan Savage.
