Curious about kink? Need to know more about nerds? Puzzled by polyamory?
Meet M & G. One allosexual and one asexual. A sadist and a masochist. Transfeminine and transmasculine. Both are kinky, nerdy, and polyamorous.
In this podcast we explore the relationship between these three defining features that are interwoven in some evident, and some not so evident, ways. This isn’t your ordinary alternative podcast.

Episode 47: Design for Living (1933) - a polyamorous movie?
Episode 47: Design for Living (1933)
This episode is a little different from normal. In this episode, G & M live react to the 1933 movie Design for Living, a "polyamorous" movie... or is it? This movie was released just one year before the Hays code (which you can learn more about during this episode too!).
*Due to the nature of the recording, since we were live reacting, please forgive the audio quality! *

Episode 44: Coming Out as Polyamorous

They discuss generally what the process of coming out is (it's not limited to gender, sexuality, and relationships), tips for coming out, potential reactions, and finally, they discuss their own personal experiences.

Episode 43: Fanfiction: History, Purpose, and Liberation
Episode 43 - Fanfiction: History, Purpose, and Liberation
In this episode of the Kinky, Nerdy, Poly podcast, M & G first discuss the history of fanfiction delving all the way back to Roman times, to its mid 1900s implementation in the form of the "fanzine", finally bringing us to the Hugo Award winning online platform, Archive of Our Own (AO3). They discuss various purposes of fanfiction including for self and community liberation, and you know, just "getting off". To conclude, they talk about their own experiences writing and reading fanfiction - the good, the bad, and the depressing "dead" fic.

Customer Reviews
Finally
I’m so glad I finally found a podcast that stands with a lot of aspects of my actual practices, the mixture of kink, spiritual and philosophical expression (especially as a Buddhist also), and nerd culture (ATLA, OURAN, AND FIREFLY!!) is the holy trifecta I have been searching for in a queer sex positive podcast. I’d give more than five stars if I could this is amazing work!
Amazing!
This podcast is a breath of fresh, kinky, nerdy, poly air!
As someone who has recently moved away from their Community, this podcast & the hosts’ dynamic makes me feel like I’m back amongst my people. The conversation is lovely—I catch myself smiling or laughing alongside them, or defending one point of view point over the other... even if I am alone in my car when I do.
If you are just starting to experiment with a non-hetero, non-vanilla, non-monogamous, unapologetically nerdy lifestyle—or just curious about what these sub-cultures are all about—then please give this podcast a listen!
