The Erotic Life Podcast is out now!
My goal for the podcast is to create a unified space for the kink community. Whether someone engages through academic theory, the dynamics of a 24/7 household, the intensity of a scene, or by simple curiosity, I want to bring these perspectives together. It is a place where kinksters of all kind can can connect over the shared language of BDSM, regardless of how we speak it.

The Erotic Currency: Findom, Straight Men, and Gay Desire with Dr Joe Kort | 02
Findom, Straight Men, and Gay Desire w. Dr Joe Kort | 02
The clinical world and broader culture often panic when sex and money collide, confusing the dynamic with addiction or exploitation. In this episode, I sit down with renowned sex and relationship therapist Dr. Joe Kort to pull back the curtain on the clinical room and explore the hidden world of financial domination (findom).
The conversation goes deep into the psychological and erotic aspects of this practice, specifically examining the unique power dynamics between gay submissives and the straight "bully" or "alpha" archetypes they worship. From the seductive architecture of online personas on social media to the literal exchange of cash at the ATM, we unpack how money becomes the ultimate "rope" in psychological bondage. We address the monetisation of gay shame, the phenomenon of the "lost boys" generation seeking validation, and how this intense theatre of play allows individuals to reclaim power from historical trauma.
Finally, the discussion touches on the serious responsibilities held by both findoms and finsubs, highlighting the delicate boundary between identity and fantasy, the reality of post-send remorse, and how to maintain healthy, sustainable boundaries.

BDSM: The Soul Made Manifest with Dr Douglas Thomas | 01
I am very excited to share my recent discussion with Dr Douglas Thomas, author of The Deep Psychology of BDSM and Kink.
In this episode we discuss his Soul-Centred Approach to BDSM. To do this, we we first examine BDSM through the Historical Lens to understand how past societal views shaped modern perceptions. We then shift to the Person-Centred Lens to look at current psychological views on individual agency and subjective experience. These stages prepare us for the Soul-Centred Lens, where we explain how the soul expresses itself through the BDSM and kink spaces in an attempt for integration and deep transformation.
Join us as we walk through this incredible journey towards Thomas' vision of unity and love for all parts of the self.
