    Platonic Polycules and the Various Configurations of Love!

    Platonic Polycules and the Various Configurations of Love!

    Hey all! And welcome to another episode of The Neurodivergent Polyamorist Podcast! Did you know that polycules don't have to be romantic? Well they don't! And this month, we talk all about how our platonic polycule works, how relationships and love can take many forms, and how its silly to try to fit them into strictly defined boxes. We also take some pot shots at Autism Awareness in the spirit of April (because remember folks - we already have enough awareness. What we need is acceptance and understanding!).



    So if that sounds like your cup of tea, then put some headphones on, lay back, relax, click play, and join us on another rambling audio journey!

    "Just Say No! (To Religious Trauma)" - The Episode Where We Tell You All About Our Religious Trauma

    "Just Say No! (To Religious Trauma)" - The Episode Where We Tell You All About Our Religious Trauma

    --CONTENT WARNING: SENSITIVE DISCUSSION ABOUT RELIGION AND TRAUMA--



    Hey all! And welcome to another episode of The Neurodivergent Polyamorist Podcast. In this episode, we go all in on exploring our religious traumas, where we got them, how they play off of our neurospicy brains, and where we go from here. This is understandably a very potentially triggering episode because of it, so if any of you want to sit this one out, we completely understand. Feel free to come back next episode - no pressure!



    If, on the other hand, that sounds EXACTLY like your cup of hot leaf juice (I've been watching Avatar, don't judge me :P), then put those headphones on, grab your water, hit play, and come with us as we go down the religious trauma rabbit hole!



    ...oh, and please forgive some of the audio weirdness. I tried my best to correct for it, but for some reason the recording got weirdly accelerated in some spots.

    "Paddles, and Dickasauruses, and Rubber Chickens (Oh MY!)" - Talking Kink, Polyamory, and Neurodiversity with Laura!

    "Paddles, and Dickasauruses, and Rubber Chickens (Oh MY!)" - Talking Kink, Polyamory, and Neurodiversity with Laura!

    --ADULT CONTENT WARNING: DISCUSSION OF KINK, SEXUALITY AHEAD--

    Hey all! On this week's episode of The Neurodivergent Polyamorist Podcast, we have a special guest star - our new friend and one of our two kink con booth neighbours, Laura of Alex Deviant Creations! She is queer, kinky, polyamorous, and a proud member of the ADHD club, having been active in the Greater Toronto and Ottawa kink communities for about 15 years. She also teaches english as a second language by day, and works with her partner Alex to sell custom made paddles, dickasauruses, and other awesome creations by night. Today, we asked her to share with us her experiences as a kinkster, polyamorous person, and neurospicy human, and the ways that those identities have interacted in her life. We had an amazing discussion, and are really excited to share it with you!



    So if that sounds like your cup of tea, then throw those headphones on, lay back, click play, and join us on a debaucherous, fun, kinky, and wild ride this week.



    ...after all - what else are rubber chickens and precious moments bibles for? ;)

    "It's Not All Black and White!" - Exploring Black and White Thinking and the Neurospicy Strong Sense of Justice

    "It's Not All Black and White!" - Exploring Black and White Thinking and the Neurospicy Strong Sense of Justice

    Have you ever been accused of taking things too literally? Has anyone ever told you that you have an overly strong sense of justice? Are you neurospicy? If you answered yes to that last one, I'm willing to bet you answered yes to at least one of the previous two questions as well. And the thing is? Same over here for both of us! Black and white, rigid thinking and having a strong moral code tend to be common traits for we neurospicy folks...and lets be real - its usually true on both counts. But as with most things when it comes to neurodiversity, there's also far more nuance than the majority of people realize. Today, we decided to sit down and explore some of that nuance with you, our dearest listeners!



    So if that sounds like your cup of tea (or coffee...or redbull...or weed - we aren't judging), then put those headphones on, lay back, click play, and join us on another random, rambling episode of The Neurodivergent Polyamorist Podcast.

    Happy Halloween! Spoopy In Person Ramblings!

    Happy Halloween! Spoopy In Person Ramblings!

    Happy Halloween to all of you out there in interwebs land! For this episode of The Neurodivergent Polyamorist Podcast, we had a chance to record in person, and even bring in a guest star - Becca's partner (and my platonic metamour I suppose...what with the whole 'Platonic Life Partner' thing :P ) Gigantor! The three of us were finally in the same room together recently, and decided to take the opportunity to record our Halloween episode! It's a rambling episode with no real topic, but we did end up having some great discussions all the same. We also had a TON of fun in the process!



    So if that sounds like your cup of tea, put those headphones on, lay back, click play, and enjoy as we take you on a spoopy, neurospicy train ride!

    "We're Aware!" - The Obligatory (And Slightly Late!) ADHD Awareness Month Episode!

    "We're Aware!" - The Obligatory (And Slightly Late!) ADHD Awareness Month Episode!

    That's right folks! It's yet again ADHD Awareness Month, and in what has to be the most appropriate turn of fate ever, we almost forgot to do this one. Because of course we did!

    ...ahem! Anyway! Despite our initial near-miss, we nevertheless pulled ourselves into semi-functional states long enough to put together an episode all about our own struggles, triumphs, and reflections on life as ADHD humans. So if that sounds like your cup of tea, put those headphones on, click play, sit back, and relax as we take you on a long, meandering journey through ADHD land! We promise not to get lost...much...along the way. ;)
