Episode 19: Polyamory with Alyssa

Today's episode is a discussion about Polyamory. Alyssa shares her personal journey with Polyamory, while we discuss common opinions and criticism of ethical non-monogamy such as 'jealousy' and it being boiled down to 'purely sexual. We also discuss media coverage, representation and documentaries made on ethical non-monogamy and how they portray it.

I wanted to record an episode on ethical non-monogamy after watching (my icon) Louis Theroux's recent documentary on the subject. I wanted to talk to an Irish Poly person as I felt it would be significantly different to that of the American Poly people Louis chose to base his documentary on. I cannot thank Alyssa enough for being so open and educational on this topic.

These are the podcasts I love to record the most, the ones where I forget I'm even recording because I am so engrossed with what the pod-guest is saying. This podcast is hard to sum up because it explores so many topics under the umbrella of relationships, identity and love...so I will just leave you all to it!

Thank you to Depop for supporting me through this series. You're constant encouragement has meant I have had more time, energy and motivation to research and find guests who mean so much to my listeners and myself. The Depop shop of the week I am LOVING this week is @caked for the *sickest* shirts that will look good on everyone.

Please review and share if you enjoy this podcast- it makes my day!
