#506 Pucker Up! Let’s Talk Kissing with Ashely Randall

Amy Baldwin (0:00)

April, you know those closet pieces you reach for again and again, the sweater that goes with everything, the jeans that always fit right?

April Lampert (0:08)

Say less, say less. That's literally my entire quince order right there.

Amy Baldwin (0:12)

Same here. Their 100% Mongolian cashmere sweaters start at $50.

50 I spent more on a mediocre brunch.

April Lampert (0:21)

And as it gets colder, they've got down jackets, cashmere scarves, gloves, even 14-carat gold jewelry for that little extra sparkle. Honestly, tell me the piece you didn't expect to love as much as you do.

Amy Baldwin (0:34)

The robe. I wear it like it's a personality trait now. And here's the thing. Everything's 50 to 80% less than similar brands because quince skips the middleman and works straight with ethical factories.

April Lampert (0:48)

Ashley Randall (1:20)

With kissing, it's bringing even more presence and like being in that erotic energy of your own.

And exploring what that feels like with the other person. So you're both playing off of each other. And I think that is... It's like a dance. Yeah, it is like a dance.

Well, hello everyone.

April Lampert (2:24)

Hi everybody.

Amy Baldwin (2:26)

Welcome back to the Shameless Sex Podcast. This episode is with repeat guest, Ashely Randall. I think this maybe is her third time on the show.

Chippity, you were not there for the recording. You were busy working at the trade show.

April Lampert (2:40)

Womp womp.

Amy Baldwin (2:41)

It's all about kissing. So first, I want to just share that the audio quality of this episode might not be the most fantastic, not about us, about the actual interview. We had some issues with the recording studio. If you're listening, recording studio, and I actually did come back to you and I said, we had some issues and you kind of discredited what I said.

Yeah, I'm talking about you. I'm not going to say your name. Anyways, we're like, we're not going to throw this episode away though. There's some important material there. Kissing is a very important topic. So we are still doing it and as we do it, we are going to do a little extra kissing bonus in the intro. April and I are going to make out on air. Just kidding.

April Lampert (3:18)

Yeah, digitally. And that'll be really sexy, come on.

Amy Baldwin (3:22)

Yeah, that would be hard to do. We're just going to make out with our screens. Like when I was younger, when I was younger, and I don't even know if I had made out with anyone yet, I used to practice kissing with the shower wall.

April Lampert (3:34)

Yeah, I did that too.

Amy Baldwin (3:35)

I mean, it's kind of a bad way to practice because it's a wall. No, I didn't, did you?

April Lampert (3:40)

You didn't.

I did with one friend, I can't remember how old it was, maybe like 11 And it was not like really hot and steamy kissing. It was like, we were 11, so it was like just mouse on mouse and like, man, this is awkward.

Amy Baldwin (3:52)

Did you say like, let's practice kissing together?

April Lampert (3:54)

Yeah, yeah. That's cute. Because we watch a lot of movies and you see people kissing and you never really do it. So I didn't really get much out of it though. I don't recommend it for anyone listening that's over 18 You could do that, but.

Amy Baldwin (4:06)

Apparently, I'm a really great kisser because I practice on the wall.

April Lampert (4:11)

Yeah, the wall kissing was a thing too, for sure. I think that's common for teenagers and such.
