Love In Brief

On this quarterly Question Round-Up, RY and Lola tackle such diverse topics as when to tell your spouse about trying ABDL, when caregiving turns into codependency, how sub-communities fraction, how to make ABDL friends, how to get over internalized shame, and (just for funsies) a day in the life of a 24/7 diaper-wearer named Lola!

Life gets so much richer with the crazy, exhilarating, deep fun of kink (and especially ABDL) doesn’t it? Have you ever wondered what *else* in the ABDL world and the kink world could be really rewarding? Maybe even wondered if some of your previous self-imposed boxes might be ready for some dismantling? On this episode, RY and Teddy talk to @ComfortablyCrinkly (IG) and @Mrs.BabyPants (IG) about how they have expanded their own boundaries inside of ABDL and outside of it, how they have tried new things to see how they feel, even taken on new roles and dynamics they thought they might never take on. And, more importantly, how their lives have changed as a result.

AT LONG LAST, it is here! We have had a two-week radio silence since CAP; there were some technical glitches with the audio, so we had to ship it off to our audio pro friends Mr November (FL) and Dadbaud (IG) to clean it up and make it listenable. And they pulled it off! It was a really, really fabulous live episode with incredible questions and an amazing group of attendees and panel, so we didn't want you to miss it. This live episode recorded at CAPCon 2026 starts with RY, Lola and Teddy reflecting on CAPCon 2026, then into the actual live episode audio. Thanks for bearing with it; I promise it's worth the extra work to listen closely. And a huge thanks to our panel : Misty, Nikki, and ComfortablyCrinkly all knocked it out of the park!

It’s almost time, IT’S ALMOST TIME… the biggest ABDL event of the year, CAPCon, is just a couple of weeks away, and we want to give YOU a preview of the fun, some helpful hints for packing and preparing, and some advice on how to have your very best CAPCon Experience. Not going this year? That’s OK, it’s still a fun episode for those who are even considering going in the future! On this episode, RY, Lola, and Teddy talk to Nito and Ruka, two CAPCon staffers and long-time CAPCon organizers, about this year’s festivities and what surprises might be right around the corner. (Aaaand, listen for the “secret handshake” from RY that unlocks a giveaway exclusively for LIB listeners attending CAPCon! [while supplies last])

It's our first crossover episode! On this episode, you get all three LIB hosts -- RY, Lola, and Teddy connect with two of the hosts of In The Nook, Noah and Fancy, to find out what is going on with our community, where the "mainstream" ABDL community (or "straight" community, though that is a bit of a misnomer) and the gay men's ABDL community meet. It's a rich discussion about commonalities, differences, and where we can learn from each other. And most of all it's just 5 ABDL podcast hosts enjoying some chat together. We hope you really enjoy!

In part two of our series on the hardest times in our lives and how we have found our way out of them, RY and Lola pick up with Bradly (FL/Tumblr) and Elektra (Tumblr/FL) to talk about how they found their way back out of the dark spaces and into a new kind of life. This second half of our discussion looks at real, practical paradigm-shifts and next-steps that can be taken when you realize something needs to change, and how to move forward and rebuild after losing the life you knew. We hope for those in a tough spot, this episode gives you both some hope and practical advice on how you can find your own way out. And for those who haven't hit those times, we hope this advice sticks with you in case you find yourself needing to bounce back.

Many of us have had a time in life where we have hit rock-bottom: unexpected life-changes have hit, major life plans haven't worked out, relationships have failed, or we needed to escape an impossible situation with nothing. In those moments where we have bottomed-out, first we needed to survive... and then we needed to find a way back up. In this two-part series, RY and Lola talk with Bradly (FL/Tumblr) and Elektra (Tumblr/FL) about those times where we have hit our absolute lowest point, including what got us there, the truths we needed to tell ourselves, and how we knew it was time for a change (and not the fun kind, the really hard kind). In the next episode, we'll look at how we each found our way out and through to bounce back stronger than ever! If you have been through a rock-bottom, we hope you find a little of your own story in these stories, and we hope this discussion helps you feel seen. And in the next episode, we hope it even helps you begin to find your way out!

It's that time of year again, RY's favorite episode of the year EVERY year: the New Year's Celebration! This year's question was "what are ways in 2025 you took steps toward loving yourself and your ABDL kink more?"... and boy oh boy did the ABDL community respond! This episode features YOUR voices and stories as RY and Lola and Teddy read and listen to how YOU took positive steps toward self-love, self-acceptance, and building relationship and community this year. It feels like payday, and we had more responses than ever this year by a landslide! We hope you relish this long-form celebration, and return to it on the days you feel disheartened or stuck with your ABDL kink. It turns out, there are steps you can take to move forward, and even to fall in love with yourself and your kink.

Ho ho ho, MERRY CHRISTMAS! It's RY Clause here, sneaking down your chimney to drop one little extra present under your tree -- it's a Winter Question Round-Up! On this episode of LIB, RY and Lola tackle questions about: How to stop the binge & purge cycle Making friends online Finding your everyday rhythm with your little side (even if you don't engage it every day) How to consider consent when you have others living in your home Body image in ABDL participation Boy, that sounds like a lot when you put it that way, doesn't it? But we are leaning on our years of experience talking to others in the community and learning from their expertise, so we promise to get right to it and get you home before Christmas dinner. This episode also comes with a heaping side of *special ask of YOU, the LIB listener* as we prepare for our NYE episode. (Hint hint - we want YOU on the podcast, which is coming out New Year's Day, so jump on it!) Thanks in advance for your help, we can't wait to have you join our New Year's celebration!

As a part of our Makers Series celebrating those in the ABDL community who step up to make something for all of us to enjoy, Lola and RY talk to Daisy from LNGU (LNGU-ABDL.com), a French diaper company that has been growing by leaps and bounds. Daisy talks about how LNGU got started, how a girls' sleepover night turned into an idea for a new kind of diaper, and how evolution of a diaper brand involves a lot of trial-and-learning while keeping the core spirit of customer want/need alive. So, be a "Happiness Monitor" yourself by tuning in to this episode to meet another fabulous Maker -- LNGU!
