Ep6: 2 Kinky Bros Walk Into a Therapist’s Office (with Dr. Ty Lerman)

Ep7: So, We Actually Did This… (And You Actually Listened)

Can we just take a second to acknowledge that we actually did this? Seven episodes. One podcast. Countless unexpected conversations. And somehow… people actually listened. In this season one finale, we look back on everything that surprised us, challenged us, made us laugh, and brought us closer—from awkward first recordings and “plugged” confessions to hard conversations about spouses, friendships, and vulnerability. We talk about the feedback that genuinely moved us, what we learned about each other, and how this podcast changed our relationship in ways we didn’t expect. And yes… we’re talking about what’s next. Season 2? Oh, we have ideas. ---------------------------------------- IN THIS EPISODE: * What surprised us most about each other * The funniest moment of the entire season (spoiler: plugs were involved) * The conversations that were hardest to have—and why * YOUR feedback that genuinely hit us in the feels * How this podcast changed our relationship as brothers * What we learned about vulnerability, openness, and trust * Season 2 ideas we’re very excited about  ---------------------------------------- A REAL NOTE BEFORE YOU LISTEN: What started as a wild idea between brothers became something way more meaningful than either of us expected. Whether you listened to one episode or all seven… thank you.

Ep6: 2 Kinky Bros Walk Into a Therapist’s Office (with Dr. Ty Lerman)

This week, we brought in an actual expert. Like… a real doctor. After five episodes of two brothers oversharing about kink, relationships, communication, and discovery, it was time to bring in someone who actually knows what they’re talking about. Enter Dr. Ty Lerman—clinical sexologist, certified sex therapist. Together, we tackle some of the biggest questions listeners have been asking: Is kink “normal”? What’s the difference between a kink and a fetish? Is jealousy inevitable? Can open relationships actually work? And why are conversations about sex still so damn hard? This episode is honest, educational, validating, and probably the one you’ll want to send to someone else. ---------------------------------------- IN THIS EPISODE: * Is it actually weird that two brothers talk openly about kink? * The surprising stats on how many people are kinky (hint: way more than you think) * Kink vs. fetish: what’s the actual difference? * Why sex conversations still feel so taboo * Open relationships: what people get wrong before they start * Compersion: the word more people need to know * Jealousy vs. envy (and why they’re NOT the same thing) * Dr. Ty’s advice for anyone exploring kink for the first time ---------------------------------------- A REAL NOTE BEFORE YOU LISTEN: This conversation is packed with information—but it’s still just that: a conversation. Not therapy. Not medical advice. Just honest discussion with someone who’s spent years helping people navigate these exact topics. ---------------------------------------- FOLLOW THE SHOW: Instagram: @KinkyBrosPodcast [https://www.instagram.com/kinkybrospodcast]BlueSky: @kinkybrospodcast.bsky.social [http://kinkybrospodcast.bsky.social] https://bsky.app/profile/kinkybrospodcast.bsky.socialX: @KinkyBrosPod [https://x.com/KinkyBrosPod] FOLLOW US: Gryff: @Gryffinrubber [https://www.instagram.com/gryffinrubber] (Instagram & BlueSky) Jason: @PlaysBothSides.bsky.social [http://PlaysBothSides.bsky.social] (Instagram, BlueSky & X) ---------------------------------------- CONNECT WITH DR.

Ep5: Why Is This Easier To Tell Strangers?

Who knows this side of you… and who doesn’t? In Episode 5, we shift the conversation beyond partners and into the wider world—friends, social circles, and the different “buckets” we keep our lives in. Why is it so hard to talk about this with the people we’ve known the longest? What do we gain—or lose—by keeping parts of ourselves separate? From “bro code” silence to unexpected support, we explore what it really looks like to navigate kink, identity, and curiosity in everyday life. In This Episode: * Why some friendships never go there—and others surprise you * The “straight bro code” and why certain conversations don’t happen * Keeping separate worlds: kink life vs. “vanilla” life * How stigma shapes what we share (and what we don’t) * Finding community in unexpected places  * What happens when your identity starts to shift—and not everyone comes with you * The question we all face: is there a cost to staying quiet? A REAL NOTE BEFORE YOU LISTEN: This episode might make you think about your own friendships—and what you choose to share (or keep hidden). We’re not here to tell you what’s right. Just what’s been real for us. ---------------------------------------- FOLLOW THE SHOW: Instagram: @KinkyBrosPodcast [https://www.instagram.com/kinkybrospodcast]BlueSky: @kinkybrospodcast.bsky.social [http://kinkybrospodcast.bsky.social] https://bsky.app/profile/kinkybrospodcast.bsky.socialX: @KinkyBrosPod [https://x.com/KinkyBrosPod] FOLLOW US: Gryff: @Gryffinrubber [https://www.instagram.com/gryffinrubber] (Instagram & BlueSky) Jason: @PlaysBothSides.bsky.social [http://PlaysBothSides.bsky.social] (Instagram, BlueSky & X) ---------------------------------------- NEXT EPISODE: We’re calling in back-up, and we’re get psych-y!

Ep4: Love, Kink, and the Things We Don’t Say

What happens when your personal journey doesn’t just affect you… but the person you love? In this episode, we open up about our partners, the conversations we’ve struggled to have, and what it really takes to navigate kink, curiosity, and identity inside a relationship. From awkward moments and miscommunication to growth, boundaries, and hard truths—this is about figuring it out in real time. IN THIS EPISODE: * Why communication is the hardest (and most important) part of all of this * The reality of introducing kink into a relationship * Moments we got it wrong—and what we learned from it * The difference between rules vs. boundaries * How partners react (support, hesitation, and everything in between) * Why ego, fear, and timing play such a huge role A REAL NOTE BEFORE YOU LISTEN: These are real relationships and real conversations. We’re only speaking from our own experiences—not giving advice, just sharing what we’ve lived.

Why is it so hard to talk about this with the people who’ve known us the longest?

Ep3: Kink Discoveries: Wait, You're Into That, Too??

We FINALLY get down & dirty about what we’re actually into. From rubber and leather to toys, sensation play, edging, and everything in between—we put it all on the table and uncover way more than we expected. What starts as a fun comparison quickly turns into real moments of surprise, connection, and a few “wait… you’re into that too?” realizations. IN THIS EPISODE: * The gear we’re wearing (yes, we recorded this one in gear) * Toys, plugs, cock rings, and how we actually use them * Sensation play, electro play, and pushing boundaries * The truth about edging—and why it’s a game changer * Kinks we align on… and where we wildly differ * The concept of compersion and shared pleasure * Group dynamics, exhibitionism, and voyeurism FOLLOW THE SHOW: Instagram: @KinkyBrosPodcast [https://www.instagram.com/kinkybrospodcast]BlueSky: @kinkybrospodcast.bsky.social [http://kinkybrospodcast.bsky.social] https://bsky.app/profile/kinkybrospodcast.bsky.socialX: @KinkyBrosPod [https://x.com/KinkyBrosPod] FOLLOW US: Gryff: @Gryffinrubber [https://www.instagram.com/gryffinrubber] (Instagram & BlueSky) Jason: @PlaysBothSides.bsky.social [http://PlaysBothSides.bsky.social] (Instagram, BlueSky & X) NEXT EPISODE: We take things in a very different direction—what happens love meets kink...?
