Episode 196: ‘Darkness Falls‘ (Dixie De La Tour)

It’s our 5 Year Podcast Anniversary, and we’re celebrating this landmark - and a brand new ‘Best Of’ from The Guardian - with a story from Bawdy’s creator, Dixie De La Tour. Dix is not a stranger to anonymous sex, but when she’s invited to a pitch dark sex party in an art gallery, she fears ‘accidentally’ boffing someone she knows in the thumping blackness. Yes, it’s an edgy event but there are rules: crawl in, hang onto your date, be polite, and don’t forget to grab some Sibling tape! #WhoAreYou #ChuckECheese #VintageStory   Song: ‘Turn off the Light’ (Kim Petras, featuring Elvira, Mistress of the Dark)   Episode Links Like A Kitten: Has your sex fallen into the same old, dull routine? Break those habits with a fun sexy box from Like A Kitten. This month they’re helping you choose your own adventure with their BYOB box. A.K.A., Build Your Own Box! You get to choose one item out of each of their 6 categories: Toys, Beauty Products, Lubes and Cleansers, Games, Sexy Accessories, and Lingerie. Within each category, you have 8 or more products you can choose from, so you can customize your kit.
