We have a surprise special XMas episode (Just like "Dr. Who!"), as guests on "The Hidden Swing" podcast, where we go over BDSM basics and give a bunch of tips and tricks to improve Jim and Jen (and your) next time at the dungeon. We touch upon etiquette, protocol, toys and how to find munches. They decide that the first thing to get is a "neon wand".

Miss Victoria goes to Las Vegas
Hello, how do you do? My name is Victoria S. I live in London, England. I used to know very little about ‘alternative lifestyles’, beyond a couple of sex and fetish parties I might have gone to just to stare. And reading Fifty Shades. Yes, I confess, I read it. In my defense, I thought it was rubbish.
My curiosity built over a couple of years back home, but I didn’t really get a chance to engage more proactively until this year. You know how it starts: a bit of vanilla spanking, you like how it feels… You buy some kinky boots because they make you feel sexy, you find a party to go to where you can wear them… And before you know it, you’re flogging behinds at the annual Fetish and Fantasy Halloween Ball in Las Vegas!
It all started in earnest at Burning Man this year. I went there with Mister Bill, whom I had met there last year, and a bunch of his friends from Dragon’s Gate. That’s how I had the pleasure of meeting the full cast from Bliss Bringers: Mistress SinD, Reverend Jon, Professor Tea and The Captain.
34: Kink.com, Folsom Street Faire, adopting a pet

Another "recap episode", where SinD and Jon try to remember all the adventures since last time! First up is BondCon, a new conference at "The Armory", home of "Kink.com". We meet various famous educators, but the misses was most impressed with "Thraje" and Cléo Dubois, and the single-tail whipping skills of "Disciple".
We visit Folsom Street Faire and interview random victims (to great amusement). It turns out that bi-males do exist!
Misses also adopted a (human submissive) pet, and took her to a swingers party. This put a spotlight on the differences between protocols and appropriate behavior between the swinger and BDSM/kink communities. In the later, there is a more strict enforcement of the "ask for consent first" rule, which sometimes gets forgotten by the experienced swingers. Also, one has to make sure that one scene does not take so long that one doesn't get laid. "Cock-blocking" may have occurred, and Jon got the woman with "worlds most impressive ass" in trouble.
We use Google Calendar to schedule play-dates/training sessions. Does that mean we are now poly?

32: Swinging in the Dust: Burning man
Podcast: Play in new window | Download (Duration: 31:48 — 14.6MB)
The "Bliss Bus" settles on the playa at Burning Man, and we record our experiences: Dust, danger ("safety third!") at the "thunder dome", fun at the orgy dome, standing in line in the rain.
But first: Reverent Jon takes "playa confessions" and a BDSM 101 course on the desert with plenty of volunteers, which we interview and spank (not always in that order).

50 shades again...
Yes, we know that the trailer to "Fifty shades of grey" is released.
Just like when the books series was at peak hype, we get asked a lot for opinions on this, so here's a handy reference list.
- What do you think about the movie?
It will probably suck mildly, yet make millions. - What did you think about the books?
They are mediocre porn, with bad story-telling. - What about the BDSM in the books?
It was written by somebody who's entire experience seems to consist of a few hours on Google. Some of the items really exist, but are put way out of context or use in an unrealistic fashion. - How do you feel about this release?
Answer:
Love it.
The practicality of the BDSM in it is bollocks. People who use them as a handbook for "the BDSM lifestyle" are going to have a bad time, but so do people who use porn as sex-ed. It's sensationalized, exaggerated and shoe-horned into a story line.
But that doesn't really matter.
The important part is: This book series and movie (series?) makes BDSM and kink approachable as it gets dragged into central stage for a while. This will do something that the sex-positive community can't dream to accomplish: Expose millions to the fact that "alternative lifestyles" do exists and are worth exploring.
I can tolerate the companies wanting to make a quick buck by selling "50 shades" branded merchandise. Once it breaks, we can direct the people to the Stockroom to buy real gear. A bunch of people will be curious about all this, and Google may drive some of them into our community. Yes, most of them will be too scared to attend a "munch" (a "meet&greet"), but they may read a book or listen to a podcast... and a percentage of those will make the jump.
We will be there with open arms, flogger in hand.
Oh, it also gets us laid more. 🙂

28: Valentines in Niagara: Swinger hotel takeover
Podcast: Play in new window | Download (Duration: 48:11 — 22.1MB)
The entire Bliss Bringer team descends upon Niagara falls, Ontario for a weekend of swinger fun at the Valentines in Niagara event. We demonstrate the "15 minute orgasm" to a packed room of rowdy swingers and train timid (sorta) wives in the art of "female dominance".
Professor Tea works her "queens walk" on the local swingers, with great success and the team takes over the "dungeon" and starts schooling the swingers in the ways of kink with bondage training and violet wand demonstrations.
Reverend Jon takes up the microphone and gets the naughtiest confessions out: From wide-eyed newbies, to aspiring kinksters, to dual-penetration fanatics, from spankings to screaming orgasms, you get to hear it direct and uncut.

25: Whips, canes and latex at Dark Odyssey Kink conference
Podcast: Play in new window | Download (Duration: 40:01 — 18.4MB)
Jon and Sind are back from "Dark Odyssey: Surrender", a 3 day event in San Francisco with training, demos and play-parties with the who's-who of kink. They visited classes on "fisting", "scene negotiation", "rough sex" and "erotic publishing", which are just a small part of what was available.
After Mistress SinD gets her first take of receiving a whipping, we interview "Zemis", master (and instructor) of the single-tail whips and various other sorts of mindfucks. We discuss mediation by whipping, perverted clowns and sonic booms.
We talk latex with Penny from Lust Designs: how she designs the outfits (from mermaids to bowling shirts), how to pick them, how to lube up and get into them.
Every good kinkster needs a kilt (or a couple), so we hang out with PD Kilts and try out their warez, so we learn about the different styles and weights of kilts.
Podcast recommendation: Los Swingers, a podcast in Spanish and English about a couple's adventures in the swinging lifestyle. They also do great jello shots. Update 2015: Sadly, the podcast no longer exists.
Hood of Dominance
What can I say? I’m always in charge…CEO of my corporation, President of the Neighborhood Watch...you get the drift. What do I do at night? Or when I’m not working?
I’m a dominatrix. Yes, you read that right. A dominatrix. My husband, Todd, goes gaga for it. AND he encourages me to have clients!
Today, however, I’m beat and not in the mood to dominate. I’ve just left the most grueling meeting in my career. I had to fire over half of my executives. Needless to say, Security will be busy for the next week. And my HR staff will be busy helping me fill those vacancies.
At lunch, Todd called, telling me that he had something special in mind for us tonight. When he says “something special”, he usually means I’m putting on the “uniform” and he’s being a submissive.
Let me tell you, though. I’m NOT in the mood. How do I break it to him? I’ve been trying to call him since I left the office…he’s not answering his cell or the home phone. I guess I’ll just have to lay down the law…or claim a headache (which isn’t a lie!).
I’m pulling onto our street. I can see the lights on in the front room as I pull into the driveway.
