Most people think the toughest part of polyamory is jealousy. But according to Richie, it's actually… logistics. Yep, the calendar.After a life-changing cancer journey with his partner, Richie realized that the hardest part of opening their relationship wasn't emotions, it was managing schedules, consent, and privacy across multiple partners. With his background in software product management, he decided to do something about it, and created PYE, a scheduling and consent management app designed specifically for the polyamorous community.In this episode of Nope! We're Not Monogamous, Richie and I dig into:Why scheduling is considered an “unsolvable math problem” (and why we need more self-compassion when we feel polyunsaturated).How misunderstandings about dates, boundaries, and consent are quietly breaking relationships.The creative ways poly folks use calendars as safety tools.Why color coding, structure, and intentional planning actually free us up for more intimacy and fun.Richie's vision for cutting down burnout and building more trusting, joyful relationships with better tools.If you've ever juggled multiple Google Calendars, forgotten to communicate a boundary, or lost a relationship to logistics overwhelm — this one's for you.

YOU CAN'T MAKE HER BEHAVE.Stormi Maya isn't playing by anyone's rules. The former stripper, current OnlyFans Creator, and metal musician joins Dustin to talk about her signature blend of early 2000s Playboy/Penthouse glamour and unfiltered, modern-day sex appeal. Her content is raw, lush, and unapologetically horny — more Pamela Anderson, less algorithm bait.We get into how platforms like Instagram and OnlyFans built empires on the backs (and asses) of sex workers — only to turn their backs on them once the checks cleared. Stormi's not afraid to say it out loud. She also drops a few of the wildest strip club stories the show's ever heard, opens up about life in a metal band, and reflects on what it really means to create content that connects emotionally and erotically.She's bold, brilliant, and burning the typical blueprint. Welcome to EP 189: "The Girlfriend Experience" with Stormi Maya.Watch the video version of the show on YouTube YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIuCkOl_XummXVdu1t3XOuQFollow Stormi MayaInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/stormimaya (@stormimaya)Follow the showInstagram: https://instagram.com/sexparty.fm (@sexparty.fm)Twitter: https://twitter.com/sexpartyfm (@sexpartyfm)Follow Dustin Instagram: https://instagram.com/dustin.rybka (@dustin.rybka)Twitter: https://twitter.com/dustinrybka (@dustinrybka)Sex Party with Dustin Rybka

Many of us hear stories about couples who dive headfirst into non-monogamy without preparation (what I call the "jumping out of the airplane without a parachute" approach). But after 33 years of marriage, Bill and Laura decided to explore non-monogamy through a gradual, education-centered path.They're joining us to share their experience with this slow and steady approach, which demonstrates the value of taking time to learn, process, and grow together before making significant changes to your relationship structure. Their journey shows us that opening a relationship doesn't have to be impulsive or chaotic—it can be thoughtful, intentional, and deeply rewarding at any stage of life.In this episode, we talk about:— How becoming empty nesters created space for Bill and Laura to explore "something more expansive" in their relationship— The importance of unlearning social conditioning and stepping off the "relationship escalator" (the traditional path of falling in love, getting married, having kids, and then... what?)— Why the process of "unenmeshing" from each other was crucial to their journey and how they practiced it in everyday ways— The challenge of moving from theoretical knowledge to real-world experiences when Bill spontaneously met someone "in the wild"— How they navigated their first big emotional hurdle when Laura had a "freak out" and Bill initially tried to fix it by stopping what he was doing— The rejuvenating effect that opening up has had on their relationship in their 50s, challenging the notion that non-monogamy is "just for young people"— The value of taking things slowly and allowing each person to move at their own pace— How they've become more individuated while maintaining a deep connection with each other— The ongoing process of working with difficult emotions like jealousy and envy rather than expecting them to disappear— Why connecting with community and seeing others model different relationship styles was crucial to their growthJOIN The Year Of Opening® community for a full year of learning & support.

VIOLET VOSS IS COMING.... FOR EVERYTHING.In just eight months of mainstream porn, Violet Voss has already filmed for Brazzers, Team Skeet, and, yes — she rode The Bang Bus. This week, the Adult Star and OnlyFans Creator joins Dustin to break down her rise, her ride, and the raw, sweaty chaos that comes with getting railed in a van with no A/C somewhere in South Florida.We talk about the scene where she strapped one on and went full dom, the positions that left her breathless (and clueless about what they were even called), and her honest preferences when it comes to where a guy finishes. Violet also gets into her old-Hollywood-meets-goth-punk energy, how it feels to be constantly compared to Morticia Addams, and whether we'll ever get the Stepmom/Stepdaughter Wednesday/Addams Family porn parody she was clearly born to star in.From facials to femdom, submission to sweat, and gangbangs that might be coming soon — we're going inside Violet Voss, and we're going deep.Welcome to EP 188: "Inside Violet Voss" with Violet Voss.Watch the video version of the show on YouTubeYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIuCkOl_XummXVdu1t3XOuQFollow Violet VossInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/violetvossxo (@violetvossxo)Follow the showInstagram: https://instagram.com/sexparty.fm (@sexparty.fm)Twitter: https://twitter.com/sexpartyfm (@sexpartyfm)Follow Dustin Instagram: https://instagram.com/dustin.rybka (@dustin.rybka)Twitter: https://twitter.com/dustinrybka (@dustinrybka)Sex Party with Dustin Rybka

What happens when swinging and polyamory overlap? In this episode of Three Shades Deeper, we dive into the term “Swolly”—a playful way to describe those who enjoy both. The group sits down with Coach Meshai from Expansive Connection, who opens up about her own journey in embracing a swolly identity. Together, they unpack the pros and cons of living at the intersection of swinging and polyamory, the misconceptions people often have, and what it really looks like to claim space in both communities.  Whether you're a swinger, poly, swolly, or just swolly-curious, this conversation takes you deeper into the nuances of non-monogamy, identity, and authenticity.

FROM HOUSEWIFE TO HARDCORE. She just turned 50, got nominated for an XMA, and holds the record for the most unhinged custom request in OnlyFans history — Maria May is here, and BELIEVE ME WHEN I TELL YOU, she's only getting started. In this episode, the newly minted Adult Performer takes us through her wild first year in sex work: the BBCs, the facials (which makes her go BONKERS), the girl-on-girl hookups, and the way things with her husband escalated from “let's film something fun” to “oh wow, I'm actually in porn now.”We talk about what it's like diving into the mainstream side of the adult world at full speed, what scenes she's dreaming about next (spoiler: it rhymes with gangbang), and how turning 50 didn't slow her down — it lit a fire.Maria's proof that you can start your Freak Era anytime — and make it a legendary one.Pour yourself a triple, zip up your flight suit, and enjoy EP 187: "The Big 5-0" with Maria May. Watch the video version of the show on YouTube YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIuCkOl_XummXVdu1t3XOuQFollow Maria MayInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/therealmariamay (@therealmariamay)Follow the showInstagram: https://instagram.com/sexparty.fm (@sexparty.fm)Twitter: https://twitter.com/sexpartyfm (@sexpartyfm)Follow Dustin Instagram: https://instagram.com/dustin.rybka (@dustin.rybka)Twitter: https://twitter.com/dustinrybka (@dustinrybka)Sex Party with Dustin Rybka

Why do I keep wanting more when I already have a ‘good' relationship?” If that question has been looping in your head, this episode is for you. Spoiler: there's nothing wrong with you. You've just been taught your whole life that love only “counts” if it fits in the monogamy box—even if that box is crushing you.I'm getting real about my own story—how I contorted myself in my first marriage until I barely recognized who I was, why I stayed way too long, and how my second marriage turned into something more honest, more spacious, and more us once I stopped shrinking and started telling the truth.We're diving into:The sneaky, everyday ways self-erasure shows up in relationships.Why “compromise” isn't the same as collaboration (and how to tell the difference).How your nervous system tries to keep you small—and how to rewire it so you can take up space.A quick grounding practice you can use before those scary, important conversations.Six tools to help you be fully yourself without automatically burning it all down.If you've ever thought you're “too much” for wanting more—more love, more connection, more you—this one's your permission slip to stop twisting yourself into a shape you don't even recognize.Links & Resources:Join Breaking Free From Monogamy → https://www.elleciapaine.com/breakingfreeHang out with me on TikTok → http://tiktok.com/@elleciapaineShare the Love:If this episode hit home, send it to your partner, your best friend, or that one person who's definitely tired of playing small.

What if the relationship model you've been taught your whole life… isn't the only way to love? In this eye-opening and deeply educational episode of the Sex and Bacon podcast, Sarah sits down with sexuality educator, researcher, and author Jim Fleckenstein for a no-BS conversation about polyamory, swinging, open relationships, and the many forms of consensual non-monogamy. With over 20 years in the field, Jim shares the research, real-life experiences, and hard truths that challenge everything you think you know about love, sex, and commitment. From breaking down the different types of non-monogamous relationships to busting seven of the biggest myths people still believe, Jim pulls back the curtain on what makes these relationships thrive—and where they fail. They explore the role of communication, boundaries, and self-awareness in creating healthy dynamics, plus why jealousy might not be the deal-breaker you think it is. Whether you're monogamous, curious about opening your relationship, or already exploring non-monogamy, this conversation will give you the language, insights, and confidence to navigate love on your own terms—without shame.

In this episode of The Better Sex Podcast, I talk with Mel Cassidy, a queer, multidisciplinary somatic practitioner and relationship coach who specializes in supporting queer and questioning folks navigating non-monogamy. Together, we explore the liberating possibilities of honest, consensual non-monogamy—how it works, why it can be both exhilarating and challenging, and what it means to approach relationships with openness and authenticity. Mel's personal journey—from crafting imaginative, non-monogamous love stories as a child to courageously embracing relationship anarchy and becoming their own primary partner—sets the stage for a conversation that is both vulnerable and deeply empowering. As we dive in, Mel shares how colonialism and the nuclear family model have shaped our ideas of love and commitment, why chosen and extended kinship networks are essential, and how perfectionism and societal norms can quietly limit our relational freedom. Along the way, we unpack Mel's unique framework for mapping relational landscapes, explore the nervous system's role in building meaningful connection, and discover how to create space for both autonomy and intimacy. If you're ready to break free from outdated scripts, expand your understanding of love, and build relationships that reflect your truest self, this episode offers both the insight and the tools to begin.

What happens when you grow up being told your body isn't yours, your desires are dangerous, and your worth is tied to being someone's “only one”… and then you finally break free?In this powerful conversation, I'm joined (again!) by Leah Carey, relationship and intimacy coach and former host of Good Girls Talk About Sex, to talk about what so many folks discover after leaving high-control environments like purity culture, religious abuse, cults, or narcissistic family systems:→ The floodgates of curiosity open—and suddenly queerness, kink, and non-monogamy are on the table.We dig into:Why exploring outside monogamy can feel like a reclamation of autonomyHow high-control systems shape our nervous systems and sexual wiring (and why “just getting over it” isn't a thing)The sticky shame messages ex-purity-culture kids drag into adult relationships—and how to start untangling themHow non-monogamy can be a massive relief during seasons of mismatched desire (and Leah's refreshing take on letting a meta meet your partner's needs)Why true sexual freedom often starts with learning what your real yes and no even areIf you've ever thought, “Why can't I just be normal about love and sex?” this episode will remind you—you're not broken. You just weren't given a roadmap.

This week, the rising star joins Dustin to talk about what really goes down on her OnlyFans and Fansly accounts… including how filming hardcore content with her husband didn't just heat things up — it saved their marriage.From facials to creampies to the first time she ever shot girl-girl (with her husband behind the camera, of course), Kera opens up about the fantasies she's bringing to life and the ones still waiting in the wings. Throatpies? Check. Seven dudes in a tent during college? Yep. A future gangbang? We ask. She answers.This episode is wild, hilarious, and of course, completely unfiltered.

In non-monogamy, being misunderstood often feels like the default—and being truly seen? That's the exception. But finding your people truly changes everything.In this episode of Nope! We're Not Monogamous, non-monogamous love, sex, and relationship coach Ellecia Paine cracks open the emotional exhaustion of constantly explaining your relationships—especially to therapists, friends, or family who just don't get it.

Marla has been exploring and practicing non-monogamy for about 20 years after learning about it during their first year of college. After getting out of their last monogamous relationship early in their college experience, Marla fell in love with their best friend and never really looked back. Like many of us, they were kind of making it up as they went and figuring it out along the way. Today we have a fantastic conversation with Marla about their journey, their struggles and triumphs, as well as the wisdom they've earned along the way. We dig into the reality of being an imperfect human, the importance of relationship repair, queer-platonic partnerships, and everyone's favorite topic... Hierarchy! More about Marla from their website: www.polyamarla.com Marla (they/them pronouns) is a relationship therapist and educator specializing in non-monogamy and *2SLGBTQIA+ identities.

Ever wonder what really gets Pinky and Ava going? In this intimate and unfiltered episode of Pinky and Ava's Pajama Party, the duo dives deep into their turn-ons—and they're not just talking bodies. From the thrill of emotional freedom to the buzz of a partner's confidence, from shared laughter to shared lovers, they explore the layers of satisfaction that light them up. It's real, it's raw, and it's ridiculously relatable.

When we step outside established relationship norms, we're not just changing our dating lives—we're challenging entire paradigms that shape how we see the world. In this episode, we welcome Marla Schreiber, author of the new book Non-Monogamy and Defying a Paradigm, to discuss what it truly means to question and move beyond mononormativity.Marla brings a fresh perspective as someone who's been practicing polyamory since 2005, when resources were scarce and community was hard to find. Their journey offers valuable insights for anyone questioning relationship structures or feeling constrained by societal expectations.Paradigm shifts aren't just intellectual exercises—they're deeply personal transformations that require courage, patience, and a willingness to exist in uncertainty. Whether you're considering non-monogamy or simply questioning other societal norms, this conversation offers wisdom about the challenging but rewarding process of creating your own path.In this episode, we talk about:— What paradigms are and why they're so difficult to challenge— The humbling experience of trying to create new relationship structures without established models— How mono-normativity is embedded not just in our social world but in legal systems and economic structures— Why it takes 3-5 years (or more!) to truly begin shifting paradigms— The scarcity model that underlies mono-normativity and how it affects our sense of security— Why "exclusivity" often stands in for deeper values and needs that can be met in other ways— How couples privilege operates and why it's challenging to recognize when you're benefiting from it— The courage required to question your approach, even after years of practice— Why defiance can be a powerful tool when challenging established norms— The importance of staying in the "unknown" rather than rushing to create new rigid structuresResources mentioned in this episode:— Marla Schreiber's new book Non-Monogamy and Defying a Paradigm— Marla's socials: @PolyaMarla— Marla's newsletter at polyamarla.com— The new edition of More Than TwoJOIN The Year Of Opening® community for a full year of learning & support.

When we think about altered states of consciousness, we often focus on individual experiences. But what happens when we bring psychedelics into our relationships—especially non-monogamous ones? The potential for healing, connection, and transformation is immense, but so are the risks if we're not careful about our approach.In this episode, we're joined by Dr. Nicole Thompson, a queer, non-monogamous sex and relationship psychotherapist with training in psychedelic integration therapy. Nicole is the host of the Modern Anarchy podcast and founder of The Pleasure Practice. Her groundbreaking doctoral research is the first study on relationship anarchy, and she brings a wealth of knowledge about how psychedelics can support relational liberation.In this episode, we talk about:— How psychedelics function as "non-specific amplifiers" that can enhance whatever is present in your relationships (both the good and challenging aspects)— The crucial importance of set, setting, and integration when using psychedelics for relationship exploration— Why community is medicine—both in psychedelic experiences and non-monogamy— The parallels between non-monogamy and psychedelics as mind-expanding experiences that challenge cultural norms— How psychedelics can help us experience our bodies differently and reconnect with sensation after trauma— The neuroplasticity that occurs during and after psychedelic experiences (and how to make the most of that 72-hour window)— Why self-compassion is essential when navigating jealousy in non-monogamous relationships— The similarities between NRE (New Relationship Energy) and psychedelic states— Practical integration practices that help us incorporate insights from altered states into everyday life— Why focusing on positive experiences is just as important as processing challenges— The importance of harm reduction and testing substances if you choose to use psychedelicsResources mentioned in this episode:— Nicole's podcast: Modern Anarchy— The Psychedelic Jealousy Guide— Fireside Project psychedelic support hotline— Relationship Reflection Integration QuestionsJOIN The Year Of Opening® community for a full year of learning & support.
