Love Letter to Ukraine
Private Parts Unknown: Sex & Love Around the World
03/04/22 • 66 min
For the 78th episode of Private Parts Unknown, hosts Courtney Kocak and Sofiya Alexandra are sending a love letter to Sofiya’s homeland: Ukraine — more specifically Odessa, the pearl of the Black Sea.
Sofiya grew up in Odessa, Ukraine, before immigrating to the U.S. in 1994, when she was in middle school. Now, in the wake of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, Sofiya revisits the place she first called home, sharing her favorite memories and cultural touchstones, why it's Ukraine instead of "the Ukraine" (which undermines the country's sovereignty), how this war has made us realize our neglect of other conflict zones, and more. This episode was inspired by Sofiya's viral Twitter thread, which struck a chord with folks eager to learn more about Ukraine during this harrowing time.
We’re up for some Podca$h funding for the show, and, in addition to paying our team, we want to take a trip to Antarctica for a bucket list series about love and sexuality on the South Pole. Please write us a short love letter (just a sentence or two would be perfect!) letting them know what you love about our show. Please don’t hold back on the compliments! The deadline is Friday, March 4th. Here’s the link: https://www.podcash.com/love-letters/pLRE6

03/29/22 • 47 min
For the 80th episode of Private Parts Unknown, hosts Courtney Kocak and Sofiya Alexandra are joined by Ukrainian journalist and radio host turned civilian soldier Yuriy Matsarsky (Юрій Мацарський), currently fighting in a Territorial Defense Unit in Kyiv.

The Practicalities of Polyamory with "Monogamy? In this Economy?" Author Laura Boyle
Private Parts Unknown: Sex & Love Around the World
09/11/24 • 40 min
For the 174th episode of Private Parts Unknown, host Courtney Kocak welcomes Laura Boyle, author of Monogamy? In this Economy?: Finances, Childrearing, and Other Practical Concerns of Polyamory.
In this interview, Laura Boyle shares her personal journey into polyamory, which began at age 19, and how she later became a relationship coach and educator on the topic. The conversation delves into the practical aspects of polyamorous relationships, including managing finances, child-rearing, and cohabitation—the subject of Boyle's latest book. Boyle highlights key findings from her research, such as the prevalence of three-adult households in polyamory and the challenges of navigating custody battles with non-polyamorous ex-partners. The discussion also explores the growing interest in non-monogamy, the stigma surrounding polyamory, and Boyle's philosophy as a relationship anarchist.
