Welcome to the new substack format!

If you’re reading this, that means you’re either on the freebie mailing list or you’re poking around my content just seeing what I’m up to. Either which way - Welcome! - and thanks for perving with me.

In this mini episode, I mostly talk about the new format for the podcast going forward. While editing my recent episodes, I realized that my audio rambles have become a bit structureless and a repetitive. With no real format, I’ve fallen into habits that I’ve watched almost all of my favourite podcasters succumb to. Their style becomes formulaic, opinions and examples are repeated and, as a listener, you can almost predict their next line of thinking before they even start it.

The Joe Rogan Experience was the first podcast I ever listened to and by the time I tapped out (around episode 1000) I could easily guess his reactions to almost anything. It’s become a bit of a trope by now with his massive popularity but I’ve experienced the same with almost every other podcast that I follow. It’s an inevitable side effect of talking for hundreds of hours, I suppose.

So for me, going forward, instead of just choosing a broad topic and rambling on about it until I run out of steam, feel awkward and stop recording, I’ve come up with a new system to keep things fresh. First of all, I’ve got a fucking spreadsheet going which we all know means it’s sexy-nerd-business-time. Secondly, the spreadsheet combined with timed segments and a paywall will help keep this ship floating all sexy, wild and free!

In the full version of this podcast, “Gags & Gatekeeping” which is available with a paid subscription, I cover the topic of ball gags, I talk about TV inspired horny times, my upcoming week and the gatekeeping I’ve experienced in professional BDSM. I talk about escorts, pallet cleansing sessions, cancellations and I sip some homemade, apple-flavoured, white wine!

I’m so pumped for this renewed format and encourage you to join the paid tier, if you haven’t already. It includes an extra 45 minutes of podcast each week and access to the full archive of almost 100 episodes so far.

Thanks for subscribing and I’ll C U Next Tuesday!
