Episode 6: BDSM Breakdown—Power, Play & Past

In this episode, we dive headfirst into the layered world of BDSM—from the psychology behind dominance and submission to unpacking the deeper emotional ties between trauma, pleasure, and power. We take a BDSM quiz and compare our top results, breaking down key vocabulary and the importance of knowing yourself before exploring with someone else. We cover safe words, sexual health, communication, and the golden rule: consent is sexy. To our SAS (sexual abuse survivors), this one’s especially for you: it was never your fault. Your story is valid, your healing is sacred, and your power is still yours. We see you, we love you, and we’re proud of you. Share your thoughts, stories, or safe words with us—DMs are open. Don’t forget to follow us on IG and subscribe on YouTube, Apple Podcasts, and Spotify for more real talk, deep dives, and healing laughs.

Episode 5: From Real Baes to Real Exploration

Building off the romance in Episode 4, we dive even deeper—this time into the world of sexual orientations, curiosities, and the many ways connection and identity evolve. We open up about different dating dynamics, fluidity, and the personal growth that often unfolds during what we lovingly call a “hoe phase.” It’s not just about who you’re with—it’s about the self-awareness, exploration, and healing that come with it. Have your own story of love, curiosity, or transformation? Share it with us through our submission form in the Linktree—we’d love to hear from you!

Episode 4: From Rave Baes to Real Baes

In this episode, we shift from the glow of the festival grounds to the glow-ups (and glow-downs) of real-life romance. We spill on the code names we use for our suitors, reveal the top 3 traits we look for in a partner, and share some unexpected stories along the way. One of us opens up about living with bipolar disorder, and how that deeply shapes relationship dynamics and the kind of support that truly matters. From swiping on dating apps to daydreaming about soul connections, we’re curious to know—what are your love stories? Slide into our DMs or tag us with your wild, sweet, or messy love stories—we wanna hear it all. Whether it’s a rave fling turned real thing or a dating app win (or fail), your stories deserve the spotlight too.

Episode 3, Part 2: Raving Baby!! – Safety, Real Talk & PLUR

In Part 2 of our Raving Baby!! series, we shift from fun stories to the realities of rave culture, focusing on the importance of safety, self-awareness, and being prepared. We unpack what’s in your fanny pack for those SOS moments, talk openly about the fentanyl epidemic, and highlight life-saving resources like End Overdose—a vendor offering free Narcan (naloxone) and education on reversing opioid overdoses. From practical rave tips to the role of the med tent and our favorite purple-shirted homies at Ground Control, we break down how to keep it fun and safe. We also share a personal story about losing a friendship after someone pushed past their limits at a festival, because while there’s always good with the bad, it’s crucial to stay grounded. Through it all, we center the energy on PLUR and remind you to check in with yourself and align your vibe at every festie.

Episode 3: Raving Baby!! — Family Vibes and Festival Stories

In this episode, we take the family dynamics from Episode 2 and dive into the world of raving, exploring how friend groups at raves can feel like a second family. We talk about what raving means to us, the essential items you need (including what’s in your fanny), and the importance of a solid meet-up spot when the crowd gets wild. We also shout out an important person who’s been with us through it all—Papi—and share a few of our favorite festival stories.This is just part one of a two-part raving episode. The first part is filled with good stories, and part two will dive into the not-so-good sides of the rave scene.
