·50 min·3 clips

A mortician says her fiancé asked her to "play dead" and implied sex with a body.

1. F*ck Buddies: A Sex and Dating Advice Podcast uses "Getting the Juices Flowing" to move from Halloween jokes into sex-and-dating advice. 2. Dane Miller and his cohost open as Dracula and Igor, then correct themselves while joking about Frankenstein, dust, and Halloween costumes. 3. The episode asks what mystery means when a date can Google someone’s career, school, and public achievements before meeting. 4. The hosts argue that if your mystique depends on hiding your job or city, that is not real depth. 5. They distinguish between keeping some things private and refusing to share anything about your life. 6. The conversation uses a few comparisons, including spies, resumes, and "black ops in Guatemala," to separate secrecy from interestingness. 7. Dane says mystery should come from having "breadth and experience and depth as a human being." 8. The hosts bring up children’s costumes, including Moana and Mulan, to show how costume debates can become messy online. 9. They say parents should avoid cultural dress that they do not understand, while allowing a kid to dress as a "badass like training Mulan." 10. They also mention K-pop Demon Hunters and say some Korean fans pushed back against outsiders getting upset about the costumes. 11. The first listener question centers on a woman who works as a mortician and is engaged to another mortician. 12. She says her fiancé asked her to "play dead" for sex and then linked the request to the bodies they work around. 13. She describes being shocked when he asked, because they handle dead people and she did not expect that suggestion. 14. Her concern grows when he laughs nervously and scratches his neck after she says no. 15. She worries he may have already violated a body and says the idea makes her feel sick. 16. She also says she has not told anyone, including her therapist, and is thinking about leaving him or reporting him. 17. The hosts frame the issue as a consent problem because the dead cannot consent. 18. They contrast consensual roleplay with wanting to use kink as a substitute for an actual violation. 19. The episode sounds conversational, improvised, and heavily dependent on jokes, back-and-forth interruptions, and pop-culture references. 20. It will suit listeners who like blunt dating advice with kink and ethics talk, but not listeners avoiding mortuary or consent questions.
