Catfished! Spotting Fakes in the Swinger Lifestyle (Revisited)
That gorgeous couple sliding into your DMs? Yeah... about that. In this revisited episode of Beyond Monogamy, Adam & Pris dive into catfishing in the swinger lifestyle — the fake profiles, filtered photos, and flat-out fictional people lurking in ethical non-monogamy spaces. With 15 years in the lifestyle, they've seen (and nearly fallen for) it all. In this episode: Adam's AOL chat room days — and the too-perfect mystery woman who vanished Filters, angles, and 20-year-old photos: where does flattering end and lying begin? Why catfishing hits harder in the swinger lifestyle than in vanilla dating The "personality catfish" nobody talks about — fake nice, fake in love, fake experienced Scammers, bots, and the infamous $45 nail-money hustle Red flags in open relationships and swinger apps: no photos, model-only photos, stories that don't add up, dodging verification, pushing for nudes How to protect yourself: live video verification, Pris's date-on-paper photo trick, cross-referencing profiles, and trusting your gut Why trust, consent, and honesty are non-negotiable in ethical non-monogamy Got a catfish story of your own?

In this episode: Why so many swingers think they want polyamory… when what they really want is friends with benefits Adam & Pris's five years of poly: unicorn hunting, red flags, and the girlfriend who texted way too much Pris's journey from not knowing her worth to discovering her inner dom The Great Date Debate: why "date" is now a forbidden word in their house (say hello to the "meetup") Jealousy in open relationships, hierarchy, and the rules they hold sacred — no vacations with others, no showering with others (unless it's content) Could they ever date another couple?

Predators in the Swinger Lifestyle: Red Flags Every Couple Must Know
This one's serious, y'all — but it's a conversation the swinger lifestyle needs. Adam & Pris pull back the curtain on one of the darkest corners of ethical non-monogamy: sexual predators in the lifestyle. It's not the highlight reel, but after seeing too much of it lately, they're saying the quiet part out loud. In this episode of Beyond Monogamy, the swinger podcast for lifestyle-curious couples and ENM veterans alike: What actually makes a predator — the difference between an awkward newbie's mistake and a genuine pattern of circumventing consent The red flags: pushing past a "no," repeat asking to wear someone down, escalating touch without checking in, using alcohol to lower guards, and pressuring one half of a couple when the other said no The saga of the drunk single guy (and his big box of White Claws) who creeped out the whole club — and how a great club staff handled it The gut-punch of realizing people you called friends were grooming newbies and targeting the newly single Adam & Pris debate: do you blast a known predator to the community, or is that not your job? (Spoiler: Adam is not swinger Batman) Why CNC dynamics mean things aren't always what they look like — and the look that tells you something is genuinely wrong How to protect yourself: speaking up, partner check-ins, reading the room, and why verification (SDC, 3Fun, video-verified groups) matters in open relationships Hang out with us LIVE: Free livestream every Thursday at 7PM Central at beyond-monogamy.com — plus every past episode, the blog, the merch, and our 100% anonymous confessional.

What Makes Someone Slutty? A Swinger Couple Reclaims the S-Word
Slut. It used to be the worst thing you could call someone. On this Wednesday Quickie, swinger lifestyle veterans Adam & Pris grab the S-word by the collar and ask: what actually makes someone slutty — and why are we still letting a word from the 1400s do our thinking for us? In this candid ethical non-monogamy (ENM) conversation, the real-life couple behind Beyond Monogamy digs into slut-shaming, double standards, and why the swinger community doesn't just tolerate sluttiness — it celebrates it. In this episode: Pris gets called a slut in sixth grade — and again as a freshman, for not giving it up The actual Merriam-Webster definition of "slut" and its 1400s origin story Alcohol vs. weed: which one actually lowers your inhibitions? Adam's hotwife kink and consensual "cheating" fetish — and what happens when the fantasy talk ends Pris discovers her "hot husband" dominant side ("You can borrow him. He's coming back.") Is being touchy-feely slutty? Is teasing? The couple debates what counts as slutty behavior The double standard: what do you call a man who acts the same way? "Just a man, baby." Slut-shaming inside the lifestyle — yes, it happens, and it's ridiculous Watch us LIVE: Every Thursday at 7PM Central at beyond-monogamy.com — full episodes, the blog, merch, and our 100% anonymous confessional. Drop your lifestyle, ENM, or kink confessions and we might read them on air! Also streaming on FullSwapRadio: Catch us at fullswapradio.com Thursdays at 2PM and 7PM Central.
