He dives into his experiences navigating kink, board games, non-monogamy, geek culture, and improv communities, highlighting the universal patterns that emerge in each social group.• All communities have an approximately 90-day "probationary period" before truly accepting new members• People need to see you consistently show up before they open their inner circle • Bad actors and creepy people don't last long in any community regardless of focus• Finding your specific tribe within the larger community takes time but is worth the effort• Communities we choose often provide acceptance we didn't find in communities we were born into• Being quiet and not engaging socially makes integration much harder• Persistence is key - sometimes it takes years to find your specific people within a communityIf you want to join a new community, just go!

Send us a textJulius explores the fundamental differences in how men and women communicate and the painful lack of education we receive about these differences before entering relationships.• Communication styles differ significantly between genders based on both biology and socialization• Men are typically raised to be solution-focused while women often communicate to process emotions• Active listening without trying to "fix" problems is a learned skill many men find physically uncomfortable• Social media and smartphones have worsened our ability to connect meaningfully face-to-face• Dating requires consistent effort and realistic self-presentation, not just swiping endlessly• The concept of "the one" is misleading—successful relationships require active work and communication• Learning new skills requires consistent practice for at least 66 days to form habits• Failure is necessary for growth and shouldn't be avoided—"fail gloriously"Want to share your thoughts or suggest topics for future discussions?

Send us a textStarting life on the back foot doesn't mean you're destined to stay there. This raw, vulnerable episode challenges the notion that our beginnings dictate our endings, offering a candid look at overcoming disadvantage and finding forward momentum when everything seems stacked against you.We dive deep into what it means to grow up with fewer advantages – whether economically, socially, or in terms of family stability – and how these early circumstances shape our relationship with possibility and progress. The psychological weight of constantly feeling "behind" others can be crushing, yet there are paths forward that many never explore.Your brain, while incredible, isn't automatically wired for success – it's wired for survival. This fundamental reality means change and growth will always feel uncomfortable initially. We explore how this biological programming creates resistance to the very changes that might improve our lives, and practical ways to work with (rather than against) these natural tendencies.The comparison trap merits special attention as we discuss how social media has amplified our tendency to measure ourselves against others' highlight reels. This habit steals joy and motivation, yet remains one of the hardest patterns to break. We share strategies for developing a more realistic perspective on others' journeys and focusing on your unique path.Perhaps most importantly, we examine the crucial difference between a failure and a setback. When we learn to extract value from our missteps and continue forward, we transform what could be dead-ends into stepping stones. Nearly every successful person has a trail of failures behind them – what sets them apart is their refusal to let those failures define them.Ready to stop treading water and start moving forward? Join us for this heartfelt conversation about finding your way despite a tough start, and discover how awareness, persistence, and self-compassion can change the trajectory of your story.

Send us a textNavigating the dating world as someone on the asexual spectrum comes with unique challenges that many dating platforms simply weren't designed to address. Drawing from decades of personal experience across various dating platforms, I'm pulling back the curtain on what it really means to date when sexual attraction isn't your primary motivation.The digital dating landscape often feels like it was built exclusively for those seeking immediate physical connections. For demi-attracted and asexual-spectrum folks who experience attraction primarily through emotional and intellectual connection, this creates a fundamental disconnect. How do you communicate your needs in a profile limited to a few hundred characters? When should you disclose your identity to potential matches? And perhaps most importantly—how do you find partners who value connection over immediate gratification?Through my journey across mainstream apps like Hinge, Bumble, and OkCupid to more alternative platforms like FetLife, I've developed strategies for authentic communication and boundary-setting. The reality is that even when you clearly label yourself as "asexual" or "demisexual" on your profile, most people won't understand what these terms mean—and fewer still will take the initiative to educate themselves.This episode isn't just for those on the ace spectrum. Anyone struggling with dating app frustration, communication issues, or the challenge of authentically representing themselves online will find practical insights here. I explore everything from profile creation to disclosure timing, safe sex negotiations, and finding communities where deeper connections are valued.Whether you identify as ace, are curious about different attraction styles, or simply want to understand a different perspective on dating, this raw and unfiltered conversation provides a window into dating differently in a hookup-oriented world. Ready to rethink how you approach connection? This is your invitation to join the discussion around the kinky campfire.

We're tackling those moments head-on, from chatting about money woes to discussing whether or not kids are part of your future. Even while battling a stubborn flu, I'm diving into the art of open dialogue with partners, helping you to foster healthier, more fulfilling connections. Together, we'll explore why many relationships stumble over these communication hurdles and how you can learn to handle such challenges with grace and confidence.Have you ever thought about the difference between a good rant and a productive conversation?

Send us a textIs your podcasting journey crossing into the realm of taboo topics, and where do we draw the line between fantasy and reality? Join me as I recount my experiences at PodFest 2025 in Central Florida, where the buzz of conversations was as vibrant as ever, even in the absence of a dedicated track for taboo discussions.

Could my own podcasting endeavors fall under this controversial category? Get ready for a deep dive into these provocative themes in upcoming episodes.Navigating the bustling world of podcast conventions has unexpectedly honed my networking and self-promotion skills, particularly as an introvert.

From mindfulness to BDSM, my solo podcasting journey explores a spectrum of complex topics, all while collaborating with others to enrich content and expand reach. The drive to entertain and spread my message is ever-present, proving that podcasting is as much about personal growth as it is about sharing our voices.The fusion of AI and podcasting is unleashing transformative potential, and I'm eager to harness these technologies in my creative endeavors. Networking consistently emerges as a vital tool for unlocking new opportunities, and I'm excited about blending improv into teaching and future creative projects. While solo podcasting poses challenges, it's also an opportunity to feature engaging guests and honest conversations. As I continue to integrate improv into my work, prepare for potential controversies and rich discussions on the horizon.

"The main issue that we ran into, the hurdle that kept us from understanding that we had the sleep disorder that we do, is our autistic literalism. We were taking the way that people talk about being overworked and tired in this capitalist hustle culture, the way that people are like, oh, I'm exhausted, I'm falling asleep all the time. We took that very literally", says The Pillowfort System. The Pillowfort System joins this episode to discuss their sleep disorder and being part of a polyfragmented DID system.

Ep 428: Bite The Pillow Fort Radio by Pillow Fort Radio

The immortalist movement in Silicon Valley shares a lot with evangelical religions, says Dr Emile P Torres, a philosopher and former Nick Bostrom acolyte. In both, he explains, there's a heaven in which the faithful will experience unsurpassed bliss and delight, and an apocalypse, which will separate out the people who can go there. After a decade at the epicentre of the transhumanist research community, Emile became concerned with the number of apocalyptic stories of techno-utopia that were being shared online. Was this philosophical movement becoming radicalised? When Emile raises the question, the consequences are swift and severe. Excommunicated, harassed and threatened. With influential and powerful technology billionaires as some of its faithful, is Emile right? Is this movement really one of the most dangerous secular ideologies? In this series, technology reporter and psychologist Aleks Krotoski explores the frontiers of the extreme longevity pioneers. They've made their money in Silicon Valley. And with their technology solutions - PayPal, Facebook, cryptocurrencies - they've ushered in the world that we live in today, with all its unintended consequences. Some of them now want to solve the "problem" of aging, or even death, and they are making bigger strides than we may think. Can they? Should they? A Pillowfort production for BBC Radio 4 New episodes released Mondays. If you're in the UK, listen to the full series of Intrigue: The Immortals first on BBC Sounds: bbc.in/3WEQS5W

The idea of living forever has captivated us for millennia, but rarely do people imagine what would happen the day after the fountain of youth is discovered. Today's technology entrepreneurs pushing an immortality agenda - through their investments and their influence - seem only focussed on the pursuit. Whether or not immortality is a distant possibility, how do we cope with living longer en route to forever? Where's the planning for that? It's a great opportunity for innovative thinkers but, from what we've seen over the last two decades of technological disruption, these real but smaller goals aren't nearly as enticing as the big ones. In this series, technology reporter and psychologist Aleks Krotoski explores the frontiers of the extreme longevity pioneers. They've made their money in Silicon Valley. And with their technology solutions - PayPal, Facebook, cryptocurrencies - they've ushered in the world that we live in today, with all its unintended consequences. Some of them now want to solve the "problem" of aging, or even death, and they are making bigger strides than we may think. Can they? Should they?

The immortalist movement in Silicon Valley shares a lot with evangelical religions, says Dr Emile P Torres, a philosopher and former Nick Bostrom acolyte. In both, he explains, there's a heaven in which the faithful will experience unsurpassed bliss and delight, and an apocalypse, which will separate out the people who can go there. After a decade at the epicentre of the transhumanist research community, Emile became concerned with the number of apocalyptic stories of techno-utopia that were being shared online. Was this philosophical movement becoming radicalised? When Emile raises the question, the consequences are swift and severe. Excommunicated, harassed and threatened. With influential and powerful technology billionaires as some of its faithful, is Emile right? Is this movement really one of the most dangerous secular ideologies?In this series, technology reporter and psychologist Aleks Krotoski explores the frontiers of the extreme longevity pioneers.

A new philosphical movement is gathering steam in Silicon Valley, one that promises immortality by using technology to solve the problem of death. This movement is led by Oxford philosopher Nick Bostrom. Professor Bostrom is the author of Fable of the Dragon Tyrant, the original manuscript of the modern immortality movement. It was published in 2005 in the Journal of Medical Ethics as a response to what Bostrom described as the absurdity of the inevitability of accepting ageing and death. Far from being a one-off, the Fable is one of the core texts that form part of a moral philosophy of the future of humanity called transhumanism. Adherents believe that we will achieve immortality by merging with artificial intelligence and becoming “post-human", and that the next step in our human evolution is nigh.

Many of the longevity innovators in the Valley want to extend human life. But there are others who are trying to eliminate death. A lot of them. The tech billionaires who have never been told ‘no' are driven to tackle the most insurmountable problems. They believe they can solve death by re-engineering the human in code. Problem is, it's unlikely to happen in their natural lifetime. But technology is on their side. Every year, computing power doubles. Once a decade, the amount of change produces a whole new paradigm. And that is what they're banking on. Science, combined with the rapid acceleration of technological change will keep them alive decade on decade until such time as they can achieve ‘longevity escape velocity' - eternal life.

Loyal for Dogs is one of the companies in the longevity industry doing serious science. They are well-founded, have a killer team, and a very clear mission: to be the first to get a drug that treats ageing - not just the diseases of ageing, but ageing itself - to pass the rigorous Food and Drug Administration approval process. Their CEO, Celine Halioua, is a maverick founder whose life has been guided by her ability to work systems. So, to meet her mission, she's got a hack that will get her new ageing drug into trials. That will be a first for the longevity community, and the foundation stone for the next phase of our search for eternal life.

The Conboys' experiment gave a young Harvard medical school graduate a big idea. But, there is a big gap between the experiments they did with mice in the lab, and pumping young blood into human beings. Still, he registered his company, Ambrosia Plasma, on the Food and Drug Administration clinical trials website and began an ambitious human research experiment. For $8,000 in cash, cheque or digital transfer, anyone over the age of 35 could receive two litres of blood plasma from 16-25 year olds in their veins. The outcomes were ambitious - physical rejuvenation, weight loss, reversal of dementia, and healthy looking skin. Does this fairy tale have a happy ending?

Jesse Karmazin's Ambrosia Plasma clinic promised the fountain of youth, two litres of young plasma at a time. For a fee, anyone could go to his treatment centre in the redwood forest outside Silicon Valley and receive an infusion. The results - according to Karmazin - were remarkable. Silicon Valley billionaires were rumoured to be queuing up for their young blood. The problem was, the scientists whose work in mice he claimed to be bringing to the people disagreed with what he was doing, and he never backed up his claims with data. A journalist stepped in to investigate, and what she found was Silicon Valley hype without any substance.

Mike and Irina Conboy are a couple of tie-dye clad scientists in the bio-engineering department at the University of Berkeley. When they started researching ageing more than 20 years ago at Stanford, the field was nothing more than a spin-off from geroscience - most of their time at the lab bench was spent documenting signs and signals that our bodies are reaching their ends. But in 2005, they published an article in Science that suggested there is hope for reversing ageing our tired old bodies. And the best bit of their study was that they proved there's ample supply of the base material to do it - young blood. Using a revolutionary but ancient technique, their results re-ignited the millennia-old search for life everlasting.
