Sultry Stories, Sweat, and Sapphic Snacks with Jo Del Carmen

Sultry Stories, Sweat, and Sapphic Snacks with Jo Del Carmen

This week on Tongue First, Siren and Wendy welcome Jo Del Carmen — sapphic short story author, TikTok storyteller, and the author behind Women in Papercuts — a collection of true sapphic experiences written with the kind of tension that makes you want to turn down the brightness, light a candle, and get in touch with yourself. Jo brings her full self to the room. A queer Latinx woman who grew up in South Florida, spent seven years songwriting and performing, got shoved out of the closet by her brother, and has since been turning twenty four real experiences into some of the most searingly honest sapphic short fiction on the internet. Together, Siren, Wendy, and Jo talk about coming out, being outed, trauma bonding, and why youth group has always been a pipeline for gay people. They get into favorite sapphic books and movies — Foxfire, Gia, Imagine Me and You, and a very passionate defense of Aubrey Plaza. They talk about polyamory, how Jo's relationship opened up, how Siren's trifecta formed after New Orleans, and Wendy revealing for the first time that she's demisexual. Then the conversation turns toward the sapphic slow burn — why queer women connect so deeply through yearning, safety, and desire — and Jo reads an excerpt from her story Irresistible that will make you want to sit very still for a moment. Also: second puberty, beer pong in the oldest gay bar in the country, and sapphic snacks as a life philosophy. If you've ever felt desire before you had words for it, found yourself in a story someone else was telling, or just needed someone to remind you that safety and great sex are not mutually exclusive — this one is for you.

Phone Scams, Love Languages, and Spicy Group Chats

This week on Tongue First, Siren and Wendy are back for a solo episode that somehow covers everything from financial fraud to sapphic softness — with a spicy group chat in the middle holding it all together. Wendy kicks things off with a week from hell: a CheapOAir booking disaster and a phone scammer who smooth-talked her out of eighteen hundred dollars by pretending to be her bank. It's a cautionary tale, it's a PSA, and it's somehow also hilarious. Then the group chat comes up — nineteen people, daily titty pics, and a very consensual conversation that somehow leads into a deep dive on what sapphic relationships actually feel like from the inside. Tender eye contact, soft skin, the kind of connection that makes the rest of the world disappear. Wendy opens up about heartbreak, what four days of no contact actually costs you, and why she's done giving grace to people who won't stay consistent. Siren talks about losing nearly every friendship she had when she left the church, what it means to finally have found family that shows up with no strings attached, and why being desired — really desired — is something she didn't think was possible for her until recently. Also: lesbian fashion by era, the trans flag as a gender reveal, chokers as the unofficial trans woman uniform, and a brief but passionate debate about who the bigger lesbian actually is. If you've ever been scammed, loved someone who couldn't show up, needed to hear that you are worthy of being desired, or just wanted to sit with two people who will go from chaotic to tender and back again without missing a beat — this one's for you.

They also talk about the new website at tonguefirstpodcast.com [http://tonguefirstpodcast.com], give a sneak peek at merch that's coming soon — including the tote bag everyone keeps asking about and a very unexpected carabiner — and share a milestone number that genuinely blew them away.

Rainbow Kids, Survival, and Emotional Support Tweezers

This week on Tongue First, Siren and Wendy are joined by Meggers for one of the most emotionally grounded — and unexpectedly chaotic — conversations of the season so far. Together, they talk about parenting queer kids, chosen family, queer safety, internet friendships becoming real life support systems, religious shame, survival, and what it means to keep showing up authentically in a world that doesn’t always feel safe to exist in. The episode moves through deeply personal conversations about coming out, sexual assault, trauma, gender expectations, dating while trans, and raising children with the freedom to become fully themselves. And because this is still Tongue First, the emotional vulnerability somehow coexists perfectly with discussions about whiskers, body hair, boobs in group chats, and the life-changing power of emotional support tweezers. This episode explores: • parenting queer and trans children • chosen family and queer community • survival, safety, and existing visibly queer • religious trauma and purity culture • consent, assault, and emotional healing • dating while trans • internet friendships becoming real connection • body image, hormones, and chaotic queer adulthood If you’ve ever found family outside of blood, questioned the rules you were raised with, or needed queer community just to make it through the week, this episode is for you.

Parasocial Panic, Polyamory, and Power Rangers

This week on Tongue First, Siren and Wendy dive into the beautifully weird world of queer community, TikTok Live, parasocial relationships, polyamory, religious trauma, and creator burnout. What starts with Power Rangers, Gemini chaos, and straight men in livestream chats turns into a deeper conversation about being queer online, building real connection through social media, and trying to protect your peace while still showing up authentically. Siren shares updates on polyamory, co-parenting, and building a new relationship dynamic at home, while Wendy brings her usual mix of blunt honesty, emotional support lesbian energy, and absolutely zero patience for nonsense. And because it’s Tongue First, things eventually spiral into dingle hoppers, body hair, hygiene, and sapphic sex talk. You know. As they do. This episode explores: • queer relationships and polyamory • TikTok Live creator burnout • parasocial relationships and online community • religious trauma and coming out • emotional boundaries and creator life • queer identity, body honesty, and going tongue first If you’ve ever built real friendships online, felt overwhelmed by social media, questioned your place in queer community, or tried to keep your life together while everything is changing… this one’s for you.
