These Movies Were Our Teenage Sexual Awakening (Yes, Really)

  • Summary

  • What do movies like The Lion King II: Simba's Pride, George Of The Jungle and Cruel Intentions all have in common?

    Well, they are all heavily featured in this episode about the unexpected movies and TV shows from our childhoods that sparked a sexual awakening.

    From slightly embarrassing confessions about animated characters we fell in love with (don’t pretend it hasn’t happened to you), to movies we really shouldn’t have been watching as kids and childhood classics you’ll never look at the same way again. Please enjoy this slightly NSFW episode.
