In this episode of Kink Journeys, I sit down with community builder and LSPlayground founder, Josh Fink. We dive deep into how a backyard BBQ during lockdown sparked one of Colorado’s most inclusive and thriving lifestyle communities. Josh Fink shares their path from early explorations in kink and polyamory to organizing hotel takeovers that bridge the gap between swinger, poly, and kink communities. We talk grief, chosen family, radical inclusion, and why curiosity—and coffee—matter as much as play. Honest stories. Fresh perspectives. Real kink journeys.

Can an online quiz really tell you who you are in BDSM? How long does it take three neurodivergent kinksters to take a test together (and just how many Barbarella references can we fit into our commentary)? Charlie and I decide to take the (in?)famous BDSM Test and compare it with another sexuality self test MojoUpgrade. While working our way into the first test we got a call from one of our favorite humans, Sir Aiden Charming, who joined us in the test adventure and commentary. We laugh, we cringe, we learn about ourselves and each other. This is a truncated version of our online shenanigans, while Patreon listeners have the opportunity to do the tests with us in a 2-hour long play by play, query by query recording. So buckle up for this blast from the past (we actually recorded this in the summer 2024 but Kat got overwhelmed by the editing process #spoonielife #betterlatethannever).

Have you done these or other sexuality/kink tests? What did you like or dislike? Let us know if there's one you think we should take on the pod!

In this episode of The Good Love Podcast, I interview the founder of Denver's House of Pleasure, Mistress Pain. Mistress Pain shares her Kink Journey from trying to 'pray the gay way' to creating spaces of erotic exploration and self expression. We also discuss her community vision focused on female pleasure and how many of us connect with sex-positive spaces as a form of ministry and fellowship.

In my last episode we did a deep-dive for International Female Orgasm Day, including busting through some of the many misconceptions around female sexuality. So this week, I'm bringing on my friend and colleague, Sex Coach Same, to unpack some of the inaccurate and harmful messaging around male sexuality. Whether it's misinformation from society, media or pressure we put on ourselves, we can break the cycles and Sam was happy to share to tools to do this vital self-work.

August 8th is International Female Orgasm Day! So I’m diving into history, bad science, and reclaimed pleasure. Where did this holiday came from? What is the orgasm gap (and why does it still exist)? How can we push back against a society that tries to control our sexuality? I'm unpacking all these questions and more. If you’ve ever been curious about the clit, the G-spot, or why pleasure still feels taboo—this one’s for you!
