Gray starts out by revealing the secret location of the "lost episodes" of the Ropecast: http://ropecastarchive.graydancer.com

Then things get serious when he answers a question put to him at the Philly GRUE: "How would you respond to a false accusation of consent violation?"

He talks about the advantages a kinkster can have using the SUDO app (iPhone only, sorry) to create identities that don't make you vulnerable. You can even tell him what you think at [email protected] !

Finally he lightens things up with the song that he sang during the Mythchievous performance at Fusion 2017. You can get the track in MP3 playable version at http://patreon.com/graydancer by pledging $1 or more towards the support of this podcast.
