What is toxic masculinity and why is the older generation accused of it so much? Let's take a look at our Leather history to find out and see what needs to change for today.

Are we Imposters? Have you ever experienced "Imposter Syndrome" in the Kink community and is a little bit of it healthy for us? We discuss this and much more in this month's Cigar Salon.

Before Grindr there were CLASSIFIED ADS. Do you remember a time before gay hook-up apps? Well these old kinksters do and we discuss what it was like back in the day of answering classified ads to find a kinky play date, sex partner, or even another gay person in your area. Oh how the times have changed in the age of instant electronic hook-ups...

These Old gay Kinksters in San Francisco sit around smoking cigars and reminiscence about their experiences in the BDSM culture and how it has changed. We talk about bathhouses and how vital they were for creating a safe space and feeling of community at a time we had none. We also explore how this evolving for the next generation. Can we keep up?
