Have you ever...pooped during a date? Had regrets when you woke up to somebody else? Shaved all of your pubic hair? Found new ways to use tampons? Chris and Josh get up close and personal and play the raunchy game Never Have I Ever in this week's short. Music: "How Do You Do It" by Empress of "Furute Funk" by Joakim Karud

Asexuality, more than most sexual identities, is misunderstood — there are few representations of it in the media, and it dosn't really enter conversations within the LGBTQ+ community. Chris and Josh chat with Shon Correa, a third-year genderfluid UC Berkeley student who identifies as asexual. They show us the ropes of ace identities, including gray-ace and genderfluidity.
