Untying Knots: Minds and Souls Untethered

CW: Discussion of sex, sex work, and sexual situations

I chat with fellow Geek & Leather Man Jack Thompson, about his project Adventures in Leather. Which is a blend of Geeky Tabletop Roleplaying Gaming and the BDSM/Kink/Leather culture which support charity actives. We talk about the how it is an approchable pathway for those not drawn to the bar/contest scene to enter BDSM/Kink/Leather culture. As well as how Geekdom and BDSM/Kink/Leather merge and support each other in finding our awaken to either space. We talk about Deadpool & Wolverine as well. So come geek out, enjoy, and share.

Time for another TherapBlerdOut with my co-host Dr. Mercedes Samudio. This time we're talking about Marvel's X-Men'97. With a very serious lens not just toward our shared love of Storm (Praise Storm),but at the messages and handling of trauma. Just because someone is a telepath doesn't automatically make them a good therapist. So give us a listen, yes there will be spoilers, and share.
