Lets talk about sex with the hosts of Guys We Fed
While most people go out of their way to avoid running into a past hookup, Krystyna Hutchinson and Corinne Fisher actively encourage those run-ins. Since 2013, Fisher and Hutchinson, the comedy duo Sorry About Last Night, have been revisiting former sex partners on their weekly podcast “Guys We F—ed,” where they deliver an irreverent attack on slut-shaming through conversations about sex with celebrities, comedians and those men they’ve slept with to more than a million subscribers worldwide. Express talked to the pair about their upcoming book, out in October, politics and — of course — sex, ahead of their live show, “Guys We F—ed: The Experience” on Saturday at the 9:30 Club.
How does a podcast like yours adapt to the current political climate?
Krystyna Hutchinson: One of the things that we’ve been hearing a lot is, “I wish you guys would stop talking about politics; I listen to this show to escape that,” which is a really frustrating request. I would love to be able to not talk about politics. But as long as there are laws associated with my vagina, we’re not going to shut up about it.
Corinne Fisher: Not to pat us on the back, but we were on the cutting edge. We were talking about these problems before they came to the forefront.
How has the podcast affected your sex lives?
Hutchinson: Mine has changed a lot. I’ve been with the same person, but we’ve gotten much more adventurous. I use the podcast as an excuse to bring stuff up to him. We’ve had three-ways, gone to sex parties and done sex clubs. While all that’s exciting, I still love me some good-ol’ missionary.
Fisher: For me it’s almost the complete opposite. I feel myself being less interested in sex. I went to sex clubs, and there’s nothing wrong with them. They just didn’t turn me on. I’m probably a vanilla person in terms of sexuality; I want a monogamous relationship. I can get weird with that person privately, but I have no interest in really doing anything else.

Tell me about the book: It’s called “F*cked: Being Sexually Explorative and Self-Confident in a World That’s Screwed.”
Fisher: My part is about self-confidence and getting rid of shame. Krystyna’s is more about taboos, sexuality and how to talk to your partner about things that are uncomfortable.
Hutchinson: We’ve experienced so much because of the podcast. It feels like now we have this unique insight into what people are thinking, how they view their own sexuality and the sexuality of others.
What will the live show be like?
Fisher: We try to bring the podcast to life. Instead of doing an actual live, sit-down interview, we decided to bring it to life with games, and through audience participation. The one thing people seem to really want is the actual opportunity to be a guest on the podcast. And while we can’t accommodate that request, we can certainly make you feel like you were kind of on it. Which is why we call it “Guys We F—ed: The Experience.”
