Trigger warning, this weeks episode explores the unexpected loss of children during pregnancy. We understand this subject may be sensitive for many of our listeners so we wanted to provide you with this warning before you listen.

This week our guest Will White, recounts the experience of losing two children during pregnancy within a year of each other. We explore some of the situations surrounding the loss, the many ways in which grief can take form, and all the feelings surrounding these moments you seldom hear about.  We would like to  send our love to Walker White and Dillan White, as well as the whole White family for the strength they have displayed and the hope they give us. 

An episode that started as an introduction into the world of BDSM and Kink helped us realized there is no way it could all be captured in one conversation, but we still tried though. Join us as we discuss BDSM and Kink through the eyes of a  professional dominatrix and kink educator. 

From Fin-Domme to Pro-Domme, SPH to scat play (if you don't know what it is, you will today) we learned there isn't a kink too big or too small, unless of course, you're into SPH. On the outside this may all look easy, but it is an art form that can not survive without consent, commitment, and authenticity. 

Whether you're looking to learn more about becoming a dominatrix or maybe the sub life is the life for you, we discuss the many ways you can get connected. Special thanks to the Goddess and the Black Domme Sorority.

While your hosts have been in multiple relationships at any given time, we can't say it was always (ever) something every participating party was aware of (we own the ain't shit-ness of that statement). Apparently 'you aint gotta lie to kick it' is real. Join us as we explore more about Polyamory from friend to the show and author of the research paper "Open to Love: Polyamory and The "Black American", Chris Smith. 

If you want to hear more about polyamory (aka Ethical Ho-ing), being black and poly, threesomes/foursomes/moresomes, and a portion of the show dedicated specifically to ignorant questions make sure you don't miss this weeks episode!

If you're interested in some additional resources on how to learn more about polyamory feel free to visit our Instagram page @buddhaandthebeard for all of that information.

Your favorite public servants are back for a second season where they continue to use their 'aint sh*t' powers for good. On today's episode we discuss commitment, all the fears tied to is and describe exactly what f.o.m. WAP is.

Its our season finale! 

As entanglements start to surface left and right we created a quick how to guide for how to manage the Aug (side) in your life. Since jealousy tends to surface at some point in these situations we discuss that as well.  

We're taking a few weeks off but we have a special event coming 8/16/20, make sure you follow @buddhaandthebeard for details!

Men, we've all been here, Women (partners) by default, you've been there too. You started with the best of intentions, but somehow it happens before you know it. Some call it involuntary, some premature, whatever you want to call it,  it's embarrassing, so of course we're bringing ourselves to the red table this week. 

Unpacking how to learn how to communicate feelings and stuff. We don't have it all figure out, but we're trying.

Make sure you follow us on IG @buddhaandthebeard to let us know what you thought about today's episode and for any POC looking for therapist in the NY (and soon to be DC) area, please visit https://mytheramatch.com/therafund to be matched! 

Growing up there are always moments where your parents impart life- long lessons to you. In Buddha's case he was taught about responsibility, and the Beard learned what a 'Mistress' was.

This past week was an emotional shart and we didn't want to proceed with business as usual because nothing is as usual now. However, when emotions are running high, self-care becomes all the more necessary and while we ourselves aren't at 100%, we wanted to get together to give you a bit of an escape (before we all get back out there). 

This week we cover: P Diddy, saggy titties, pocket full of dough (in no particular order, and if you didn't rap that we shouldn't be friends, if you just went back to rap that, we're back on track)
