Content Warning: This episode discusses consent violations, abuse, and systemic failures in the BDSM community. Listener discretion is advised.

On this episode, I discuss the recent events surrounding the issues of theWoodShed in Florida, examining allegations of consent violations, leadership failures, and systemic harm within the community. I highlight survivor stories, analyze the misuse of power dynamics in kink spaces, and unpack the psychological toll these events have had on individuals and the broader community.

We’ll also dive into the “apologies” issued by those in positions of power, exploring why many fell short of true accountability. I address the importance of speaking out, holding space for survivors, and taking meaningful action to foster safer, more inclusive spaces.

Finally, I provide actionable steps for listeners to reflect on their roles in their communities and share resources for anyone impacted by these issues.
