Swinger Diaries

SD 96 Our Final Goodbye

For every beginning there is and end, even in podcasting. Recording this show has been an awesome adventure that has totally enriched our lives. After all the time and energy we've invested over the years, we could not be more proud of the Swinger Diaries Podcast. In this episode, we not only say our last goodbyes but shamelessly take a bow by reading some of the heartwarming messages that listeners wrote to us relaying their stories, thank you’s and compliments. We are floored by the outpouring of support and well-wishes and we’re honored to know that we've affected, and indirectly improved, so many lives. As proud as we are that the show has helped so many listeners, we are equally touched by the comments sent in by other content creators. Its absolutely humbling to hear the way our podcast seems to have had an impact on the genre. Thank you all for listening. Its been a true privilege to be ambassadors of a lifestyle that has given so much to us. Its been an complete joy to remember our stories, and a deep honor to be able to “pay it forward to the all the curious, skeptical and nervous future swingers out there”. We hope we've done justice to this amazing lifestyle but in the end, this journey is, at its core, about us and our relationship so more than anything, the message we hope our diary leaves with you is that this lifestyle has immeasurably benefited our relationship. More than ever we are, desperately, hopelessly, passionately, and deeply in love with each other. Thank you for listening. We hope to meet you all someday as we continue to explore and enjoy this fascinating, challenging, wonder-filled, exhilarating, swinging lifestyle. -Penn and Paige

SD 95 Have you got a story for us?

Just like swinging, podcasting has been an awesome adventure for us. The two hobbies are so intertwined and have a lot of similarities. Podcasting has allowed us to form our opinions about one of our favorite topics, the swinging lifestyle; reconnect as a couple in remembering our experiences; and make a network of fantastic friends. As we near the end of our podcast journey, we thought it would be fun exercise to offer some of the insights we have gleaned from the adventure of podcasting and, in the spirit of our show, pay it forward to others who might aspire to share their stories and observations like we have done over the past 6 plus years. Its mind blowing and humbling to realize the way our simple voices have so dramatically affected peoples lives and we invite all of you to share your stories with the world too.

SD 94 The Best and the Worst of the Swinger Diaries Podcast

If you've just discovered Swinger Diaries, stop right here. Do not listen to this episode because this one is nothing like our previous shows. As we begin to wind up the podcast, on this episode we indulge ourselves in a trip down memory lane to explore the evolution of the show itself. Using clips from previous episodes and our memories about our attitudes and inspirations, we discuss some of the important milestones in the podcast that shaped Swinger Diaries into what it has become. In this show we remember the high points and low points of our adventures in recording our stories over the past 6 years. If you're a longtime listener, you might enjoy hearing some of the backstories as we pull the curtain and reveal our insecurities, embarrassments, triumphs and points of pride in our podcasting journey. In the spirit of full disclosure, we even read our one and only hate mail.

SD 93 Do wealthy swingers have rules about not using solid gold dildos during play?

If you've been waiting to hear what our big announcement is then you’ve found the right episode, but before we tell you, you'll have you endure a brief recap of our recent trip to Desire during the pandemic and our usual musings around three swinger related topics. In the Best of the Lifestyle segment we declare the best toy to bring to a playtime encounter, even if the answer seems pretty obvious. Our question for this show is about the things that we and our listeners once told ourselves we would never do but now engage in comfortably. The listener question this time is about wealth disparities in the lifestyle and whether or not they affect affluent swingers’ potential for making strong connections for play. All three topics are part of this diary story as we remember a fantastic connection made with a sweet, genuine, fun, intriguing, thoughtful and sexy couple while at Desire. Throughout our time with them, our bond and trust grew allowing all of us to try out some new toys in the bedroom and even engage in something which, at first, they thought they wouldn't ever want to do with another couple.

SD 92 Do super hot swingers have to pack their swinger cards or just their condoms?

In this episode, we were pretty loose and relaxed after Paige had a couple of drinks and there was some considerable editing needed. After a little bit of soap box grandstanding and quite a lot of giggling, we did something that we absolutely hate hearing other podcasts do… tease about what’s to come. Without being too dramatic, the next episode of the Swinger Diaries Podcasts will include the biggest announcement we’ve ever made on the show. If you are a long time listener or even if you’ve just found this podcast and you have any interest in the future of Swinger Diaries, you will want to tune in to Episode 93. While we had some great listener advice about the best condom to use for swinging encounters, and we had an interesting conversation about swinger cards and whether they are thoughtful or just creepy, by far the most spirited input from our audience came to us in response to our listener’s question out being TOO hot and sexy in the lifestyle. Could being a “10” actually limit your play opportunities? Super hot swingers can be very intimidating to approach. Nobody wants to waste their precious time nor others’ time either and absolutely nobody wants to be rejected. At Naughty in Nawlins a few years ago we met up with a couple that we thought was way out of our league. We would never have considered hitting on them. We were blown away and completely flattered when they asked us if we were interested in playing. Boy, are we lucky that they did because the experience with these fantastic lovers was erotic, sensual, rare and amazing.
