We discuss how consistently impressive Ginger's panty selection is, and we touch... just barely touch on some of the mail that we've received and responded to, while Dylan falls completely off his rocker and rants about religion and politics the likes of which you've never heard...2013-04-011h 32Life on the Swingset - The Swinging & Polyamory PodcastSS 109: Reflections on Swingset KinkeryWe brought Miko Technogeisha on for a discussion on our own personal kinks, and... ended up derailed when Dylan inevitably decided to use Ginger's bedroom habits for his own personal scene. Upon attempting to get back on track Cooper sets up a second scene involving some fictional magical characters at a fictional wizardry school and... Ginger steps out for a few!

This... is Life on the Swingset, recorded on-location, in paradise.

Shira B. Katz has taken over the Swingset, and has enlisted her husband of mythical proportions Gavin Katz. The hosts of Pedestrian Polyamory (cheap plug) aren't necessarily talking about Polyamory this week, but their ventures into a Swinger party. Comparisons are made between the two cultures, Shira wants to ride the Swing Train, and Gavin wants to hit her with one. 2012-11-061h 01Life on the Swingset - The Swinging & Polyamory PodcastSS 078: In Bed With The Swingset - Flirting, Drinking, Safe Words, A Sex Toy Box, & ChaosThe Swingset crew is drinking in bed together at the Open SF conference. For a good long while we giggle and talk of almost nothing. Dylan shamelessly flirts with the ladies. We move on to talking about Dom/sub play, and Cooper's fears getting into it. The discussion leads to relationship safe words and the Get Out of Jail Free Card in dealing with relationship conflict. We talk aftercare and then dig into Cooper's sex toy box while Dylan just wants to make out with Ginger's thigh.2012-06-231h 00
