Hey, I'm Nikki Boyer. Dying for sex is all about stepping out of your comfort zone and exploring sex, desire, and self-discovery in a totally unfiltered way. It's the story of my best friend and I's journey to embrace our desires, try new things, and live without regrets. It's fun, real, and all about finding freedom and being unapologetically you. So good, it inspired a TV show. I'm gonna play you a clip from the podcast now. So be sure to follow the series on the Wondry app or wherever you get your podcasts.

One of Molly's first dates was with a 20- something aspiring screenwriter. He had a Japanese car. His name? Well, we're not using real names. People's privacy and all that. So, let's call him, let's just call him, what was the name of the car? Toyota? Let's call him Toyota.

The Toyota guy. So Toyota guy and I met at the local peasant, which was like this little bar really close to my house at the time. I love that bar. It's cute, right? Molly and Toyota guy started with small talk. He told her he just got back from Europe and he was making a short film. She told him she was recently divorced and loved living alone. You know, typical first date stuff.

He was cute and like we would, you know, we were chatting and then things got a little handsy, you know, typical first date stuff. Cute's cute, and like we would, you know, we were chatting and then things got a little handsy, you know, where there's like a hand brushes a hand kind of by mistake, but not really. And then on the, on the leg and then the legs touch. So far so good, right? But how do you move from casual conversation to casual sex? And then it was like, you know, hey, well, you know,

let's go home, I'm gonna go home, but I'll walk you to your car like, you know, hey, well, you know, let's go home. I'm going to go home, but I'll walk you to your car first. Oh. And where were you guys like parked? He was just parked on the street? Yeah, so he was parked in like the Shishi neighborhood. Okay. So we walked up like past Ventura, like south a bit and then down one of those blocks and

we got to his car. And? And it was kind of like, eh, why don't we just make out in your car? And I don't remember who offered it, but we just kind of like understood that we were just gonna make out in his car. Okay. You know?

So, I feel like we started in the front seat, but it was just not comfortable enough, so we kind of tumbled into the back seat. Like without leaving the car, we just kind of like rolled into the back seat and we were kissing and I think my bra came off. Oh wow.

I'm pretty sure it did. Wait, it just came off. Like just came off. On its own. It was like I'm out of here. He's a magician. I don't want to do this anymore. So yeah, so it came off and then um and then I you know then his dick came out but I like

I don't even remember. I don't remember. I think I touched it but the pinky but I don't even remember. I think I touched it with the pinky. But it was so fast. It was all like, and it was one of those like. What was he doing? Like, set the scene. What was he doing? He was on top of me, writhing around,

and it was one of those straight out of one of those movies where all of a sudden, he was young, but he wasn't that young. He was in his 20s, but it was one of those movies where like all of a sudden like like he was young but he wasn't that young he was in his 20s but it was like it was one of those like you knew something was gonna happen you know and it was gonna happen sooner than either of us was prepared for it to happen. Oh my god the videos hit puberty? Yeah it was like uh and so so he's like Like, because I think I touched it with a finger, and that was too much, and he was like, uh.

And so all of a sudden, his head is darting around, and he's like looking around, looking around, trying to figure out where he's going to come. Because I don't want him to come in the car, or on his stuff, or on his date. Like, uh. And so what he does is he opens the back of the back door and he like, you know, jerks it into the,

into the really nicely manicured lawn. Yeah. Yeah, exactly. Oh. Yeah. Let me get this straight. Yeah. So he was so aroused,

but he had the ability to like not jizz on you, not jizz on the car. He opens the car door, jizzes on the lawn, and then what? Like do you just say, oh, is that good? Like what do you say after that? I've never seen anybody open a car door and jizz. So it really wouldn't have mattered what I said

because at that point his car alarm started going like really loud. No! Yeah, yeah, so he's coming and the car alarm is like, woo, woo, woo, in this like really posh, quiet neighborhood. That neighborhood is straight out of the Brady Bunch. Traditional ranch style houses, manicured lawns. You'd almost expect Mr. and Mrs. Brady to come running out in their bathrobes

to see what the commotion was all about. Oh my, I would have given anything to have been walking my dog on that suit then. I know, I know, I know. Molly was off and running. She had dates lined up for weeks. But I still had questions. Like, what was it like for Toyota guy?

What was he looking for? And what was the date with Molly like for him? What was it like to be on the other side of Molly's adventures and dating? I think we need to be like, hey, here's what's really going on. Will you be a guest on the podcast? I want to hear his version of the story and ask him questions. I would love that.

And I'm sure it would be super embarrassing for me, but I don't care. Yeah. Really? You don't? No, why? I love that. Yeah. Of course, I never thought he'd talk to me, but then he actually responded.

And after a few texts, I called him. But I had no idea if he was going to pick up. That was just a taste of all the spice.
