Graydancer's Ropecast

Graydancer has two lovely ladies on his podcast: first, a post-con report on the NELA Flea with Naiia, and then off to a foreign land to track down the wonderful Tori Storii for her views as a participant (and now presenter) at Bound in Boston.

Still time to register yourself! Gray will be there with DoNotGoGently teaching Full Contact Dom, but you can really get your rope on with many other amazing presenters!

Graydancer interviews Alpine Subdreams, the organizer of the March 4-6 Vancouver GrUE.You may also want to check out some of these other upcoming GrUEs:

Also, DoNotGoGently helps answer a question from a listener: what does "Don't Help!" mean? You can see Graydancer and DoNotGoGently in the picture (thanks to WolfPerception) at our performance for the Sex Worker Awareness fundraiser organized by TiedUpEvents.

Apologies for the sound quality of this podcast; my venerable Blue Snowball, donated by Mark of Dv8 House, has bitten the dust. Thanks for the years of good quality, Mark, and don't worry - I've got another mike on the way!

Graydancer interviews RopeRider about the fantastic upcoming rope event in Boston. March 26th and 27th will be the ninth Bound in Boston, and RopeRider shares the story of how it began, and also gives you some insight into the genesis of a true RopeGeek (hint: even his ropebag looks like it's out of TRON!). The event looks to be fabulous, with the likes of Claire Adams, Damon Pierce, Lqqkout, Sir Percival, Ten, RiggerJay, and more presenting!

You can register for Bound in Boston at the site (Cheap!) or join the Fetlife group, or follow RopeRider on Twitter!

Plus, special bonus wallpaper for our Android App users! Want more special treats? Let us know!

Graydancer discusses the idea of "editing" your rope scenes, and then launches into an in-depth discussion with figure model and bondage pet Mara Geneva. Blurring the lines of rope, art, aesthetics and sensuality, the two of them will be running "WICKED LINES" at the Wicked Grounds coffee house on January 14th from 6-10pm.

Also mentioned in this podcast:

Coming up next week: we focus on the upcoming Vancouver GrUE and BoundInBoston! Plus, an account of the experience of Midori's Rope Dojo.

Gray will be attending both Fetish Fair Flea and Dark Odyssey Winterfire. Know someone at those events who should be on the Ropecast? Let me know!

Graydancer invites two of The Usual Suspects to the Ropecast for a three-country two-continent Skyperiffic interview. Hear all about such amazing concepts as Linguistic Color Coding and the infamous "Towel Track" (which should become a staple in all unconferences, in my opinion. OohSpicy and Nachtschade share the secrets of their successful kinky event in Amsterdam and their hopes for the future EuroGrUE. We're still looking for a U.K. SexyBootsOnTheGround organizer!

Special thanks to KinkyRopes and MauiKink for supporting our program!

DoNotGoGently does her review of MauiKink's Mohair, Coconut, and Yak rope in a truly unique way: while tying herself up in it. With a little help from her resident rope top, she manages to give her take on these unusual bondage ropes. You can also read FitToBeTied & RedHotGeorgia's take on things as well over at their blog.

Starting Dec. 14th Graydancer will be in San Francisco for a month, attending an Open Space Facilitator's Unconference to better GrUE in the future. If you'd like to help support his work and make a better GrUE in 2011, feel free to donate (thanks, WryGuy!).

You can also join Graydancer at the Wicked Grounds Holiday Dinner on Dec. 22nd, and win free bondage lessons!

Graydancer kicks off the holiday season with a gasp, live from the .

All this and more (plus the new intro and outro music from the Diablo Swing Orchestra!

In the first Ropecast since relocating to Pittsburgh, Graydancer shares various segments recorded on his recent travels from coast to coast, including

Other thanks go to Bre and her boy for helping out Naiia and me in the Military Style Bondage class at Truly Bound.

This is part two of a joint podcast done with Raven Lightholme of the Freedom of Fetish Podcast. You can find part one here, and while it's not totally necessary to enjoy this podcast, you'd be missing out on a lot of fun and interesting commentary if you didn't listen there first.

You can also check out rope bondage and make-out videos created by Raven & Graydancer at the Kink Academy!

Special thanks to Adventures in Sexuality for sponsoring this podcast through the donation of a beautiful suspension frame direct from AIS Kink Labs! You can come and see the frame yourself at the Madison GRUE Nov. 12-14, 2010.

Just a bit of silliness to go along with the wonderful folks at the NYC Rope Bomb Squad. I plan on being part of it the night of October 18th!

Graydancer talks about the various kink experiences had between Folsom Faire and NYC, including:

With side trips into the NYC Sex Blogger Calendar Party with Tied Up Events and even occasional spontaneous moments of song. Whew! Packed with content, this is one big hunka gooooooooood rope!
