and I wondered...: Recent Episodes
Samantha Jones
Sex and the City addressed “taboo” yet relatable topics for its time. But this time, Samantha Jones does the wondering. Let’s tackle all the questions you’re too embarrassed to ask your friends from sexual desire and the neuroses of being single to friendship and financial fails. Because growing up doesn’t bring more answers about how to survive your own life. And let’s be honest, Samantha was the BFF we really wanted.

“Later that night I got to thinking about safe sex, odd how only when our physical life is at risk do we follow certain guidelines to protect ourselves. But what about our emotional lives?

For Season 3 Episode 10 “All or Nothing,” I chat with Shawn from The Tough Titties Podcast about tough life choices. We attempt to answer Carrie’s wonderings on:
“Is it possible that we’ve gotten so spoiled by choices that we’ve become unable to make one? That a part of us knows that once you choose something, one man, one great apartment, one amazing job, another option goes away. Are we a generation of women who can’t choose just one from Column A?
