185. A Real Dom And Sub Watch '50 Shades of Grey' Oct 24, 2026

Show notes

In the year of our lord 2015, Dakota Johnson and Jamie Dornan were placed into the Saw-esque dark and twisted psychological game of E.L. James's 50 Shades of Grey and we all were the worse for it (except for the soundtrack, that still hits). Join Lina and Mr. Dune as they manically wrestle with this messed up universe, have way too many laughs than they should, and pull a few helpful insights from the muck.

182. Birth Is A Scene Oct 02, 2026

Show notes

Lina has surfaced from the liminal space of postpartum to get on the mic and share a Very Kinky Birth Story with you. No it was not a sexy, orgasmic birth but rather kink in the way we practice it around here — an all-encompassing way of holding your tenderest parts through all the huge shit life throws at you. Listen for the many analogues between births and scenes, lessons learned in the birth pool, and, as always, mantras for being kinder to ourselves along the way.

181. Pervertibles For The People Sep 19, 2026

Show notes

A caller wants to know how to do kink on a budget so STRAP IN because Lina is fresh off a tear through the outer rings of reddit with vetted ideas and strategies not only for creating your own pervertibles out of everyday objects, but for how to make smart, budget-conscious decisions about what size of flogger to splurge on when you've saved your pennies. Just please, for the love of god, do not put anything without a flared base in your butt. This is how you become a meme and not in a good way.

Lina is currently on maternity leave! If you're curious about all that, she has curated a series of written posts releasing every 1.5 weeks on Patreon and Substack, many of which are free, and several contain bonus content. You can still get all our regular bonus content in both those places, except Patreon has the Discord server and Substack does not.

Submit questions for this podcast by going to memo.fm/askasub and recording a voice memo. We will be back to our regularly scheduled programming in mid-October.

Even though Lina is on leave, she's still offering a limited quantity of Ask A Sub Office Hours. Book your one-off slot or package here. Or join Patreon on the BFF tier to get an included session every month alongside all your other benefits.
