Tell Me Something Good – Life on the Swingset

This week we're talking about lots of stuff including Sophie's upcoming appearance at the Guelph Sexuality Conference, sex on the internet, and plenty more. Plus, we have a fantastic guest with Kate Sloan of Girly Juice who was an absolute delight to chat with.

Kate Sloan is a Canadian sex blogger, sex toy reviewer and freelance journalist in her mid-twenties.

Her mission is to infuse discussions of sexuality with whimsy, positivity and joy, because sex is fun and she enjoys celebrating that. In addition to sexuality, Kate also loves to write about fashion, beauty, self-improvement and mental health, because she believes that sex is holistic – it informs, and is informed by, so many other parts of our lives.On this episode Kate shares a hilarious tale of a sex toy review gone wrong and we also chat about life as a sex blogger, the value of pseudonyms, and plenty of other lively sexy stuff you are sure to enjoy!

You can find her on Twitter as @girlyjuice and on her fantastic site girlyjuice.net.

For our very special second anniversary live show at the Gladstone in February, we decided to try something different. After podcasting for a year-ish (with some obvious breaks in between) we wanted to unite our podcasting and live event worlds and did so by (consensually) recording the stories told at our very special anniversary show.

While we usually have a theme for our live events, this month we let storytellers share sexy tales on any topic. As we had so many great tales and so much funny input from our judges, Tynan Rhea and Bethany Daniels, we've had to split this great live episode into two parts. We hope you enjoy our final portion of this event, part 3!

We also chatted this episode about our recent adventures in planning a porn conference and gala, SMUT in the 6ix. You'll hear all about what goes into planning a mini porn conference and can learn all about it at www.smutinthe6ix.com.

 

 

In related news: We are currently looking for a new home for our live events as our time at the Gladstone has come to a close. We are still taking a brief breakbut hope to return as soon as possible for more live sexy storytelling!

Happy Podcastaversary! Tell Me Something Good has been coming to you for a full year, and it's been a live monthly event in Toronto for 2 years. Despite a major hiccup (stroke, actually) and a few months of intermittent episodes, we're so proud of this year's output. We celebrate our anniversary and move along to an interview with Strap-On Jo.

Strap-On Jo is an anal sex educator who tells a story of paying a sex worker as someone with sex work experience. After that, we discuss the ins and outs (pun very much intended) of pegging and anal play, which is very much Strap-On Jo's forte. By the end of this interview, you'll be curious.

Welcome to our first episode of 2016! We've got a treat for you this episode as we are joined for some fantastic brain sex by non other than America's favourite sex geek, Reid Mihalko.

Reid told us about his beautiful birthday orgies, how he deals with shame, and some fantastic tips on what it means to be a sex educator. You'll most likely find yourself engaged all the way through as he shares his sex geek expertise, sure to inspire, educate, and make you laugh occasionally too!

Sex and relationship expert Reid Mihalko teaches adults how to create more self-esteem, self-confidence and greater health and satisfaction in and out of the bedroom.

Using humor, insight and solid information, Reid appeals to audiences of all orientations, backgrounds, ages and identities. He’s one of the only male sex and relationship experts touring the country today who can speak pragmatically to nearly all areas of sexual self-expression, intimacy, dating and relating.

Reid has appeared on CBS’ The Doctors, Oprah’s Our America with Lisa Ling on OWN, Bravo’s Miss Advised, the Emmy award-winning talk show Montel, Fox News, VH1,Showtime’s Penn & Teller’s Bulls**t!, on NPR, Sirius’ Maxim Radio and Cosmo Radio, and in Marie Claire, GQ, Details, Seventeen, People, Newsweek, The Washington Post and The National Enquirer, as well as media across the globe in twenty-seven countries and at least fourteen languages.

Hey gang! It looks like we're getting back to a regular schedule maybe? We're aiming for every two weeks on Fridays and are starting our return with an interview we recorded many months ago at CatalystCon in Virginia in March of 2015.

This episode features an interview and story with Dylan Thomas, who just so happens to be our Swingset.FM buddy / pal / tech guy / helper dude, and we apologize to him for holding onto it for so long! We also blah blah blah for a long while about our latest projects, health stuff, and maybe not so good life things, because we like to mix in the good with the … well, realistic? Anyway, back to our guest!

Dylan Thomas is a sex-positive non-monogamous proselytizer from the suburban wastelands of Chicago. Dylan believes that there’s a larger non-normative sexuality community that all wants the same things; the freedom to be who they are, love who they want, and the choice to keep their sexual preferences as private or as public as they choose. Dylan sees the need for a more open discussion about why we, no matter where we exist on the identity, sexuality, or lifestyle spectrum, all have much more in common than we realize and that we’re all natural allies of each other.

Find Dylan on Twitter @DylanTheThomas or all over the Swingset network.

In this special episode we sit down to talk about the recent abuse allegations against (retired?) porn star, James Deen. We share our personal reactions to the news and discuss how it has been handled both in mainstream and social media. We talk about what happens when we label someone a feminist because we want them to fit our own fantasy's narrative and how we can take that power back. We also talk about the porn industry and how challenging things can be for sex workers who find themselves in abusive situations.

Outside of speaking up for sex workers and women who so often are not believed when they go public with their stories of rape and sexual assault, we're not trying to solve anything with this discussion. We did, however, feel the need to have it and will continue to interrupt our standard format occasionally whenever important news items like this occur.

Aaaaaaand we're back! It's been a long and busy break, but we're back to our regularly scheduled programming here on the Tell Me Something Good Podcast. While we had a brief interlude to explain just what was going on during our uneventful absence, we've been more or less out of the game for half a year. We missed you all and we're finally feeling ready to get back to spreading sexy stories again.

To celebrate our relaunch, we had a live recording at Samantha's own Playground Conference. We set up in a suite (all the conference rooms were booked up with fabulous talks, panels and workshops) and got into bed to record with renewed vigour. Sophie shares some updates on her recovery, some new sexual exploits and some BIG NEWS. Samantha shares her desires for some post-conference sex, which is also very valuable.

Sex educator, podcaster and cannasexual Ashley Manta joined us in bed (no, not like that) to discuss her podcast Carnalcopia, her amazing work around cannabis and sexuality and then a story involving a hot cop and why it's always important to carry lube with you. We laugh, we learn and we all revel in our love of a man in uniform.
