On this week’s podcast, the actress Lois Smith reads Nancy Price Freedman’s essay, “Yes, We Do. Even at Our Age,” about how sex changes — but doesn’t necessarily cease — as we grow older.

Ms. Freedman would know: She and her husband have been married for 57 years. Stay tuned after the reading for thoughts from her and the Modern Love editor Daniel Jones.

Ms. Smith plays a nun at the main character’s Catholic school in “Lady Bird,” which won best picture in the comedy/musical category at the Golden Globes. She also stars in the film “Marjorie Prime.”
