Myrina and Tristan speak to two couples and one throuple in the lifestyle and hear firsthand accounts of their personal journeys into the swinger lifestyle. Each dynamic exploring non-monogamy in a way and at a pace that is right for them. The guests share valuable lessons and experiences; all of them giving their own, unique insight into the essential component of every successful lifestyle relationship ... communication. Through their stories, each group reminds us that vulnerability, growth, and understanding are integral to building, creating and maintaining thriving connections. In speaking to these amazing people, Myrina and Tristan are reminded, it's not about the tags or labels but the connections we make, the conversations we have, and the adventures we embark on that bring 'life' to the lifestyle.

Myrina shares her recent adventures when she traveled without Tristan for a week. Attending a conference where she regularly meets one of her playmates, Myrina knew she would have at least a few beautiful evenings with one of her lovers. She could never have anticipated, or even come close to arranging, how she actually spent her week when she is also able to connect with a previous playmate who lives in the area, and is finally able to make a connection that had eluded her for a few years, which leaves her speechless, breathless and wanting more. A physically, mentally and emotionally exhausting week leaves Myrina feeling that, at least for a little while, she got, at least some, of her groove back!

They talk about the importance of self-care and empathy in their relationship, as well as the need for personal space and time to process emotions. Want to attend events with Myrina and Tristan?

Myrina and Tristan talk about the use of recreational cannabis within the swinger community.

They discuss how they feel cannabis can enhance intimacy and the many ways they feel helps heighten their sensuality. And find out why they prefer products with higher CBD levels.

Myrina and Tristan continue their swinger journey as they recount the story of an afternoon threeway which included a little surprise for Myrina as well!

Myrina and Tristan step further out of their comfort zone by going out of town to spend the weekend with play partners they met at Naughty N'awlins the year before. Listen in as they recount the weekend's hot and sexy shenanigans where they basically had sex, ate for nourishment, napped, and then had more sex! The foursome visited the swinger club, Trapeze, in Atlanta where the ladies decided to start the night off together while the guys, and some interested patrons, watched the fun. The ladies practically flooded the room before the guys even jumped in! Tristan talks about his love of women who squirt and what it’s like to play with two prolific squirters in one session. Myrina talks about tapping into a level of sexuality that she didn't know she had. Both Myrina and Tristan describe that evening, still, as one of their top 5 sexy nights of all time!

Myrina and Tristan share sexy stories about playdates they had; both together and separately. Find out how Louis got his "name"! After a final return trip to Virginia, Myrina shares a story about the final night with (one of her) Virginia lovers and something she has never talked about before. On her return from Virginia, Myrina stops at one of her favorite hotel chains and meets a lovely gentleman at the bar! Will they or won't they??? And when Myrina gets overserved, she accidentally spoils a couple's date with Amber and Steve.

Myrina and Tristan decide they want to start a podcast but aren't quite sure how to talk to people about their idea. They attend a podcast conference and tell anyone who asks, what their podcast is about! (Spoiler alert: it's THIS podcast!) Myrina meets a vanilla guy who is "all-in" at trying his luck with a swinger hotwife. Tristan and Myrina finally visit Secrets Hideaway and Resort outside of Orlando, Florida with a plan to meet another couple for a night of play. But things don't always go as planned.

A few months ago, Myrina and Tristan met and chatted with a couple at Caliente. Fascinated with their journey and story, Myrina and Tristan asked to interview them for the podcast.  Rob and Trudy are living their best life, together. They met as swingers, eventually started dating as swingers, and then got married and are still swinging! You can find them often as nightclub hosts at Caliente, or perhaps in one of their new endeavors, adult films. Rob and Trudy share some of their stories, their insights into the swinger lifestyle, how they told their families about their lifestyle choices and how they've made this all work!

When Myrina and Tristan met Phoenix Phyre and Crimson Dragonfly at Naughty N'awlins in 2019, little did they know that their lives would be changed forever. The instant connection the two couples experienced, certainly was too good to be true. But as time went on, and the couples grew closer, they found themselves on yet another unexpected, dare we say "accidental", leg of their journey.  Listen as Myrina and Tristan meet Phoenix and Crimson for the first time in New Orleans and then end up being one of the couples in Myrina and Tristan's first group playroom orgy. But beyond the sex and the love that was growing within the foursome, another passion emerged; educating swingers about kink and kinksters about non-monogamy. Through that passion, the quad created Swinky Life -  life at the intersection of swinging and kink. With Swinky Life, the two couples teach and educate the swinger and kink communities about each others' worlds. They encourage safe exploration of all alternative loves and lifestyles so that others can also enjoy living the Swinky Life.

Kink was the scary unknown, and was a hard limit for Myrina and Tristan. Then they met "The Captain". He slowly, purposefully and methodically introduced them to the spectrum of kink and BDSM. Starting with the sensual, softer side of kink then moving into sensation play, then impact play.  Myrina was skeptical and anxious but all of that faded away when she began to experience pleasure in ways she did not know her body could handle. The Captain also spent time teaching Tristan even more about this style of play and how to use it to create even more intense experiences with his playmates.

Kink and BDSM were the two things that Myrina and Tristan said were a "hard no" when they entered the lifestyle. Naivete, ignorance, and unfamiliarity with this new world led to a lot of apprehension and fear. So much so, that those were the only things they specifically called attention to in their swinger profiles that they would not explore. Then they met "The Captain". Deciding to open their minds and gently push their boundaries, they agreed to meet a single man who was clearly active in the kink and BDSM realm. Little did they know, meeting The Captain would change their lives and become a pivotal step in their lifestyle journey.
