This episode we're breaking down one of the most ambitious intimacy scenes ever put on television.

Ariel and Morgan are diving into Sens8, the Wachowskis' globe-spanning Sci-Fi drama that somehow turns a psychic orgy into one of the most sensual scenes we've ever covered.

From gym workouts and hot tubs to morning cuddles and group intimacy across continents, we're unpacking what makes this sequence so memorable and why it still feels unlike anything else on TV.

We get into it all:

• The surprisingly complicated consent questions that come with sharing other people's experiences
• The challenge of choreographing a massive multi-location orgy without rehearsal
• The actor's experiences during the filming process
• The editing and cinematography choices that make all of it feel seamless and stunning

Plus: German bathhouses, terrible bench press form, psychic horny emergencies, Britney Spears music video comparisons, and an extended discussion about what happens if someone in your cluster decides to have sex during your grandmother's funeral.
