Sephie and I talk about how the culture in the kink world not only supports but encourages continuing to learn and try new things. Where the predominant message in the vanilla world is...not that. We talk about ways to incorporate learning into the vanilla bedroom.

I've been hearing the word slut/slutty used more frequently as a positive attribute for men. As someone who grew up with that being a terrible word to be called, we discuss why its use for men is deemed positive.

In this episode I go over my understanding of what happened with one of the cons I planned to attend this year. It was a con I went to last year and had a great time. We discuss how the information was shared, how confusing it was at times, and how important the group chat is!!

July was rough. Dealing with health issues took so much out of me. I was barely functioning. It affected my reading more than I expected.

This is our most vulnerable episode yet. We touch upon:

Purity Culture

Sexual Education. In the media. In our upbringings.

How I learned that clits could be stimulated during sex. And how that affected me.

Anatomy of the clitoris. My main reference material is: Come As You Are by Emily Nagoski

This topic might be sensitive to some listeners. It was sensitive to us when we recorded it. We hope this this episode gives you some insight and some hope.

Interview with Devyn Sinclair & Terreece M. Clarke

I was so lucky to meet these two at the Smut Lovers conference in September. While the conference was an amazing personal experience, I’m so glad I get to bring these two authors to you! They themselves met at a conference back in April.

There was honestly NO WAY that Sephie could’ve kept this to one episode. The conversation was flowing and I didn’t want to cut out ANY of it.

Here’s where to find these two:

Terreece M. Clarke

Instagram

TikTok

Book of theirs I started with: The Christmas War Paws

Devyn Sinclair

Website

Instagram

TikTok

Book of theirs I started with: Knot Your Damn Omega

Well…I didn’t end up finishing any other books last month. Which was due to a comedy of errors consisting of: life events, food poisoning, international travel, and more.

Reminder that because I am gone, I don’t have a fully accurate count of my books purchased in June. I’ll do a double count for June and July when I return.

FINAL REMINDER!!! The next three weeks will be rebroadcasts of favorite episodes. Each episode will have an introduction from myself, Sephie, or Michael. Enjoy!
