  • How to Build a Swinger & ENM Profile That Actually Gets Results (Stop Scaring People Off)
    May 13 2026

    Your profile is your first impression — and Adam & Pris have seen some impressively bad ones. On today's Quickie, they break down exactly what makes a swinger and ENM profile actually attract the right people — and what sends everyone running.

    In this episode:

    • Why your cover photo being a ceiling fan is costing you connections
    • The face pic debate — privacy vs. actually getting matches
    • What a great bio actually looks like (and what "ask me anything" says about you)
    • Full-body shots, filters, and the danger of catfishing your way into a meetup
    • Why "open to anything" tells people nothing — and specificity is actually sexy
    • The unsolicited explicit opener — just don't
    • Tips for men, tips for couples, and a reminder that there's a lid for every pot

  • No Clinic, No Shame, No Excuses: At-Home STI Testing with Dr. Andy Kogelnik of ProDx Health
    May 10 2026
    Adam and Pris sit down with Dr. Andy Kogelnik — MD, PhD, and infectious disease specialist — to tackle the thing the lifestyle community talks about but rarely does consistently: STI and hormone testing. Between clinic appointments, waiting rooms, insurance paper trails, and plain old anxiety, the system has built more barriers than most people can realistically clear. Dr. Andy built ProDx Health to fix that. Dr. Andy's credentials are serious: MD from Emory, PhD in bioengineering from Georgia Tech, fellowship training in infectious diseases at Stanford, and founder of the Open Medicine Institute. He took the same lab infrastructure he built during COVID and turned it into a CLIA-certified, doctor-reviewed, at-home testing service with 24–48 hour turnaround. No appointment. No waiting room. No insurance claim. The episode breaks down how the kits actually work — a fingertip-sized blood collection device and simple swabs that test for up to 13 pathogens at once, including Mycoplasma genitalium (MGEN), an increasingly common STI most doctors don't even test for. Dr. Andy also explains why oral and rectal sites need separate swabs — something virtually no primary care doctor orders — and how to choose the right panel for your risk level. The conversation takes a surprising turn into PASS certification — the gold standard used by the adult film industry. ProDx is the first lab ever to offer PASS-certified home testing, complete with facial verification and molecular profiling to prevent sample substitution. It's a level of rigor most clinics don't come close to matching. Privacy gets a full treatment too: no medical record, discreet plain-white-box packaging, fully anonymous ordering, and built-in group result sharing for event organizers and play partners. Adam and Pris close with a promise: they're doing the test live on a future episode. Consider this part one. Key Takeaways 42% of STIs present with zero symptoms — testing is the only way to knowMost primary care doctors run panels too narrow for people with multiple partnersMGEN is rising and requires 2+ weeks of antibiotics — and most doctors skip testing for itOral and rectal sites need separate swabs — genital/urine tests alone will miss infections ProDX uses a tiny shoulder patch device — no clinic, no phlebotomist, no big needle First lab to achieve PASS certification for home-collected samples Fully anonymous — no insurance trail, discreet packaging, group sharing built in About Dr. Andy Kogelnik MD from Emory, PhD in bioengineering from Georgia Tech, fellowship in infectious diseases at Stanford. Founder of the Open Medicine Institute. Built ProDx Health from COVID-era mobile lab infrastructure. ProDx offers 9 STI panels and 11 hormone panels with CLIA certification and 24–48 hour results.

  • Press the Button: Our Raw, Real Conversation About Prostate Massage
    May 6 2026
    What starts as a listener confession about prostate massage turns into the most honest, vulnerable, and surprisingly hilarious conversation Adam and Pris have ever had on mic — completely unscripted, completely real. About This Episode A brave listener wrote into the Beyond Monogamy confessional to share what prostate massage actually feels like — and his words were hard to ignore: "earth-shaking," a "full-body orgasm," with increased intensity, duration, and volume of ejaculate. He said he was completely incapacitated afterward. That letter opened a door neither Adam nor Pris expected to walk through on this quickie. Adam admits he has never had prostate play done — and he explains exactly why: a past experience where it happened without his consent left him with a lasting emotional association he has carried for years. Pris, meanwhile, reveals she has actually done it before (to her first husband, no less 👀). Together, they work through the anatomy, the stigma, toxic masculinity, vulnerability, and the very real question of whether this is something they will explore together. Spoiler: Adam Googled "what is a prostate" in real time on mic. You're going to want to hear this one. Topics Covered What the prostate is and what it actually doesThe P-spot — why it's called the "male G-spot" and how stimulation worksInternal vs. external stimulation (the taint is a real starting point)Adam's past experience and why consent is the real issueToxic masculinity and the "I ain't gay" barrier so many men faceWhether prostate play should be a lifestyle boundary or an open oneA practical beginner's guide for curious couples Practical Guide: Starting the Conversation Even if you're brand new to this topic, here's where Adam and Pris landed with their practical takeaways: Have the conversation first — no surprises, ever. Both partners need to be on the same page before anything happens. Don't cause trauma where there doesn't need to be any.Start slow and stay external. External pressure on the perineum (the area between the scrotum and anus, sometimes called the taint) is a low-commitment entry point. It gives you a sense of whether there's something worth exploring further — without diving all the way in.If going internal: hygiene and preparation matter. Short nails, gloves if preferred, and lube — always lube. Always.Check in throughout. Communication during is just as important as communication before. This should feel like an upgrade to intimacy, not something anyone is white-knuckling through.If it's not working, you stop. Full stop. And if it's incredible? Talk about that too — then hit up the Beyond Monogamy confessional and let us know how it went. 🎉 This Episode Is Brought To You By FIRM TECH Speaking of exploring new things — our friends at FIRM TECH make it easy to take that first curious step.
