Romance novels make kink look so easy—instant trust, flawless scenes, and zero talk about limits or lube. But real life doesn’t come with an editor. In this episode, we break down what’s fantasy versus reality and explain how to take what you read and bring it to life safely.

We’ll talk about scene negotiation, bratty play, punishments, aftercare, and all the practical things your favorite books tend to skip. Learn how to turn those spicy pages into real-world experiences built on consent, communication, and trust.

Our birthday bash was one for the books! In this episode, we’re spilling all the details from our birthday scenes—what we set out to do, how we challenged ourselves, and the goals we crushed along the way. Expect plenty of laughter, some surprising moments, and maybe a few outrageous confessions. Because nothing says “happy birthday” like celebrating with a little (okay, a lot of) kink.

We’re joined by Alicia M. Walker and Arielle Kuperberg, authors of Bound by BDSM: Unexpected Lessons for Building a Happier Life. Their groundbreaking book dives into the ways BDSM can teach us about trust, communication, vulnerability, and joy — lessons that extend far beyond the dungeon.

We talk with Alicia and Arielle about what inspired their research, the surprising truths they uncovered, and why mainstream conversations about kink so often miss the bigger picture. You’ll hear how BDSM practices can foster deeper intimacy, improve relationships, and even reshape how we approach everyday life.

If you’ve ever wondered what kink can teach us about being human, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.
