Episode description

Russ and Ashley recap a packed winter and spring in the swinging lifestyle, starting with Pineapples After Dark St Patty’s weekend with a fetish night, rock karaoke, and DJ Beargate, where Ashley’s birthday chaos leads to broken toes, a face plant, a black eye, and lingering cheek pain. They describe launching Fresh Friday at Trap with tours, discounts, and a consent and boundaries talk that escalates a quiet night into group play. At Electric Pleasures in Atlanta, they reunite with friends, do a room crawl, and Ashley has her first experience with a gay man, which feels life changing but ends abruptly when he suddenly leaves, highlighting how nights can get awkward and imperfect. They also cover family time, Wild Adventures and beach spring break, the Renaissance Festival, Trapeze Swingchella, and upcoming plans including Nashville, more Fresh Fridays, Secrets in September, and PAD’s annual glow party.

Transcript

This Week, on Hot Couple Chronicles Yeah. I tend to go a little bit extra feral on my birthday weekend. So I face-planted into the carpet. It was not, I would've done that any other day- ... of my life. That's just who I am. That's how I am. But this time, I walked away with a ginormous black eye. I busted my lip open. So yeah, I had a lot of icing. I totally broke this cheekbone in here.

This, whatever this bone is in my cheek, broke it, 'cause now it'll throb and swell randomly, and there's, I mean, there's nothing you can do about it. You just ibuprofen, ice, and that's pretty much- We're not sitting here anymore. We're fucking swingers. Why are we being so boring right now?" I don't know, but we're usually the ones that when they look at me and they're like, "I need to take a break," that's when I know, yes, I did well. You did well.

You did, you did well that night, and- but yeah, we got back and forth and things got heated and sexual, and he looked at me and he said, " I don't know, but I'm really feeling turned on right now by you." And I played with a gay guy for the first time in my entire life, and it was, changed my life. It w- It was wild. Dallas ... were on the bed watching you while we were playing. And we're like, "Whoa." Yeah. We're like, "It's happening." It was so hot. Not everything is perfect.

Sex is strange sometimes. Just being in that environment is strange and weird and uncomfortable sometimes. So it gets weird sometimes. And, you know, especially if you're new and you don't know what's going on and you're working through some things. And just reiterate that it's not always perfect, and it's not always super hot and super great and super wonderful and everybody's just super comfortable. It's not like that. People get cold feet. People get jealous. People have feelings.

Hot Couple Chronicles. Hot Couple Chronicles. Happy Wednesday. Happy Wednesday. Welcome back. Back part two. Yeah. This is going to be part two, just really recapping everything that we've been up to. Our winter and spring recap.

Yeah. And then we'll also tell you what is coming as well, and we've got some pretty crazy stories in between. So, we're just gonna jump into it, I think. Yeah. When we left off, we talked about Gatlinburg, our trip to Gatlinburg with all of our friends, and then we fast-forward, we next had Pineapples After Dark. They had, this time, their annual St. Patty's Day party was two nights. Yeah. So, they had a Friday night and a Saturday night. Friday night was- A Friday the 13th.

Yeah, and it was fetish- Yeah ... like, lace and- Yeah ... leather type It was, like, BDSM- Yeah ... type theme. Theme. Yeah. And so we did that. We dressed in our leather. That was our favorite theme, so we always enjoy bringing that out. Mm-hmm. I brought the feathers out. Got a lot of compliment on my feathers. I've worn them a few times. I wore them to Secrets one time, and then chickened out of wearing them out of the room, 'cause it's like they're very extra.

They're, like, little wing, wing straps. Yeah. I don't know what they are, but they're a statement piece, and I had brought them so many times before and worn them in pictures and stuff, but never really wore them out of the room. So, this time I did, and I'm glad I did 'cause I got so many compliments on those suckers. And yeah, we're, that's one of our easy favorites. Yeah, we, we transition to that pretty easily. Yep, and- That was cari- it was karaoke that night. Rock 'n' roll karaoke.

Oh my gosh, that was so much fun. We have a lot of talent in PAD, turns out. Yeah. Such good performances, and yeah, we had a good time. It was all rock 'n' roll theme, so it could only be rock 'n' roll songs, and it was good. It was a good time. We always have a great time. It was at Atmosphere. Which is a great venue. It's easier to get to than Atlanta and it- Yeah, you don't have to- Yeah go through the Atlanta traffic.

Yeah, it's much more low-key and easier to get there, and we all stayed at a hotel, and we were all, kinda just did our PAD weekend thing. We hung out with our friends- Yeah ... and mingled and everything, and- Jungle Jay was there Jungle J was there. I had met him at Naughty, and we did an interview with him at the party, but he didn't get any volume from it, and the picture was off, and it just didn't work out.

But we did get to talk to him a little bit, but we really have never gotten to really sit down. It's always been chaos every time- Yeah ... we see him. So we did get to talk for a little bit, but at the same time they were doing a video on the main stage with clips that we all had made for Davy, who leads Pineapples After Dark and his wife and so we did a whole thank you video, and it was a really cute and sweet moment. Yeah. And, you know, we always- Happy tears.

... have at least one happy tear moment with PAD. It's that kinda group. Yeah. And then, it was, the next day was St. Paddy's Day party, and they do that every year now. And it's always a great time. DJ Beargate was there, and it was your birthday weekend, and- Yeah. I tend to go a little bit extra feral on my birthday weekend. Yeah. Which we did. We went too crazy. Like we said last episode, this is a group that we tend to let our hair down a little bit.

We feel more comfortable being ourselves, and we tend to go a little bit too hard with them sometimes. If we go hard, it's this group that we usually go pretty hard with. Yeah. And I did. We did. And, yeah, that was my first injury that I've ever had at a swinger event. We had a great night. We had a great time. We all came back. We played. So many people. We had a hotel- Well- ... full of people. I wanna go back a little bit because Friday night you had heels on.

Yeah. And you had stubbed your toe at home and broke your toe- Yeah. So I would, been- ... a few weeks ago. Yeah. Yeah. I injured my toe. And so at one point Friday you were standing, you kind of standing at the wall, and you looked at me and said, "I can't move from this spot until I get flip-flops." I, of course, didn't bring any 'cause that's not my smartest move. So luckily one of our friends, like- Had a pair. Yeah ... " I have a pair in the car just-" Left.

You can wear 'em." "Okay, cool." So I went and grabbed 'em, got your heels off so you could keep dancing. And then fast-forward again to Saturday. Yeah. After the St. Paddy's party, we were back at the hotel. Mm-hmm. And another group activity. As we do. As we do. Yeah. And there was a lot of people in that room. I was feeling good. I was feeling good. We were all feeling great. Yeah. It was a good time. And- And I was sitting on the bed, and I was going to jump up to do something.

I don't know what the heck I was thinking I was doing or where I was going, but I was just gonna get up real quick. Well, I was sitting on the corner of the bed, and my f- toe got caught somehow in between the bed and the sheet, and I went to go get up and I could feel it break. Like, it was so painful, and so I was here focusing on this, trying to get my foot loose while I was still going to jump up.

I was so focused on my toe and the pain and everything that I had just- ripped my toe out of socket or something. It hurt so bad that I went to go fall forward, and I had my hands occupied with my foot, so my face caught my fall. So I face-planted into the carpet. It was not, I would've done that any other day- ... of my life. That's just who I am. That's how I am. But this time, I walked away with a ginormous black eye. I busted my lip open. I had a huge scab on it for, like, a month.

Still dealing with it. My cheek still hurts- ... and swells to this day. You don't have a black eye anymore, though. I don't have a black eye, finally. You can't see it anymore, but I could still feel it every day, and it w- I walked away not, that was not, not my finest moment. That was one of my lower lows. That was not a great time. So yeah, I had a lot of icing. I totally broke this cheekbone in here.

This, whatever this bone is in my cheek, broke it, 'cause now it'll throb and swell randomly, and there's, I mean, there's nothing you can do about it. You just ibuprofen, ice, and that's pretty much- how, what I did for a really long time, for a minute. But I, it was like one injury after another, I had an injury after another injury. Yeah, March was definitely the month of your- These three- ... you hurting yourself. I kicked the wall by accident.

Went to go walk around the corner and kicked the wall, broke my toe, and that was, like, a big drama for a while. And then I did it to the other toe, and then I did all this stuff to my f- it was not my finest moment- ... for sure. It was a great time. We had so much fun, but it was definitely not my finest moment. And then we had our first Fresh Friday, and that was pink theme.

They let me have my fir- the first theme for me was pink, and that was getting, you know, getting the f- table figured out and how to get in and the wristbands- so I had never been to Trap before they opened anything before. So I had never even seen the Club with lights on. I was there early for, like, Life's Spice Night.

A few of the pad First Fridays I've been there for the four- But- ... few of them, but it's a whole different vibe ... then you had the, you know, the secret knock to get in the door. We had to try and get in and, 'cause I mean, they don't open till 8:00. We got there at, like, 7:00, so. Well, then- They're still getting figured out. People aren't even, even clocked in yet, so we have to try- Well- ... to get in- Yeah ... while everyone's getting there.

And then we were trying to figure out where to put the table. We have banners and how to set all that up. Well, I forgot our- Then we forgot our banner, had to go back- At the- ... to the hotel ... yeah. Luckily, it's only, like, six minutes, eight minutes away or something. And then, so we, then we had people coming in for the tour, so I went ahead and did the tour. And then Lindsey grabbed another couple. We kinda did two tours 'cause we had, I think, four couples or something.

And she did half of them. I did the other half. And so we walked around the club, answered all the questions, and I got to do a little tour video of behind the scenes and stuff. So that's a nice perk that we get to have, is we get to record in the club while no one's there. So there's gonna be a lot more Trap behind the scenes content- Yeah coming soon that we were able to finally walk around and tell you all the things and show you all the stuff. And yeah, it was a good night.

We made some new friends. We- Yeah ... got some new couples into the club. We got our footing. We introduced ourselves. We ended the night with a bang. Yeah, we ended our night with a bang. And then- ... we ended up, it was kind of a slow, it's, it was a slow night. It's a Friday. It was. So they're pretty quiet. Pretty slow. Those nights we also choose for that reason is because they are kind of a more chill, low-key night that you can get to know people and relax and it's quieter.

But we had a lot of our friends, our normal Trap friends that our close friends came and supported us and everything. And it was getting kinda sleepy and everybody was- Yeah ... kinda sitting in the cigar lounge, and everybody was kinda get- it was getting to that point where people were starting to be like, "Okay, it's time. We're gonna leave. I think it's time to go." Yeah. "It's, it's getting late," and yada, yada, yada. So I was, I did one of my old school things-

where I was like, "We're not sitting here anymore. We're fucking swingers. Why are we being so boring right now?" So we, I pulled everybody out. We ended up going up to the front for a little bit, and then we ended up pulling everybody together for another orgy, and somehow pulled an or- a big, beautiful orgy out of it that night. It was a quiet night, but everyone orgied together. And it was, we had a couple.

It was the cu- it was an older couple- Yeah ... that had come to the tour, first time there, everything. And he- Yeah. So at one point, I just, my heart was racing. I just needed to take a break. Wow. So I sat down on one of those side benches, and I had some, one of the girls on my lap, and then I was, I had women all around me. But anyways, and we're sitting there, we're watching the show, what's going on, and one of the couples that you gave a tour was sitting next to me. Yeah.

And he's like, "This is our first time here. Is it like this every Friday night?" And I started laughing. Only when we're here. I said, I'm like, I'm like, "This is kind of the exception to the rule." Yeah. Only when we're here. I mean, it's hard to find a good group of people that we're so comf- we've known each other long enough- Yeah ... we're comfortable enough.

Yeah. We even, before we even started playing, he, we stopped everybody and he was like, "Does anyone have any rules or boundaries, anything that they wanna bring up before we start?" Yeah, I did do that.

And we, 'cause we used to do that a lot back in the day, and we've kind of taken advantage of the fact that we all are really close and we all- Well, there was a couple people that I had never played with ... but there was some new, there was some new people there, and so we wanted to make sure everybody's on the same page.

There was just a lot of outside and new, newer faces, what we do, so we wanna make sure we got everyone's consent and everything, and it was cute 'cause at first everybody was like, you know, joking and, it's an awkward conversation- ... to start having with strangers. And then, but then they were like, "Well, actually, I don't like this. I have arthritis. I have this problem. If, you know, my back, this and that. And then, like, no butt stuff.

I don't want anything." And everybody's like, "Yeah, you, me." The, it did end up being a really good conversation of stuff that- Yeah ... people did bring up that they didn't want. And it's good to know, you know? It's just good to have that on the table, and it doesn't have to be weird or serious. It can just be very casual conversation about, testing, about boundaries, rules, all of that. It can be that simple. It doesn't have to make, ruin the night. It can be, we're all adults.

Yeah. We should be able to have these conversations if we're doing this activity. So we went through the whole consent, testing, all that stuff, conversation, and then I got to play with some, a new person I never played with before. Yeah. Sweated in my eyeball. He did. It was a lot. He was soaking wet. He was. Also like to point out, tapped him out, like we do. That's one thing that we do. We tap out the untappables. Un- untappable outables people. I don't know. We're how would you say that?

The- We tap out the un- Tap outables. I don't know, but we're usually the ones that when they look at me and they're like, "I need to take a break," that's when I know, yes, I did well. You did well. You did, you did well that night, and- Yeah yeah, I just, I, he'll never hear the end of it, and it's- ... gonna always be a thing. It always is with those people. But yeah, it was fun. We had a really good time, and it was a great kickoff to Fresh Fridays, and- Yeah ... we're very excited.

That's happening this Friday, by the way. Make sure you're there. Yeah, so the original plan was that we were going to go to Fresh Friday, I was gonna come home, and I was gonna work like a normal day. Well, a couple days before, we had wanted to go to a EP event, and- Electric Pleasures is a new company pretty much that Dan and Lacy started, Swing Nation started, and it's just another branch of Swinger Society. It's just another different kind of party.

It's just- It's like a more EDM- A house... Yeah, EDM centric. Yeah. Like- And it's more of that vibe, and mixed with Swinger Society event pretty much. And so it's their new venture, and we, they had one in Florida at the Gulf or something, and then we knew they were coming to Atlanta, but we thought he was gonna be working. Stuff worked out. We had the time off. So, so we texted them and said, "Hey, we're in town, and we're thinking about

coming and checking out EP." So we bought tickets for that, and figured we'd just do the one night 'cause we were doing Fresh Friday Well, it was a little bit of a to-do because- Yeah ... we were just gonna buy tickets and show up. Oh, yeah, that's right. And- And but it was only, they only sold tickets for the whole weekend. That's why we did the one night. And so I texted- Yeah ... I texted them and I said, "Hey, we're going, we're have our Fresh Friday event and Trap Friday night.

We were gonna come check out EP Saturday night, but I went to buy tickets and there's no Saturday only option." Yeah. And he's like, "Hold on." He's like, "I'll get with the team." And so they made a Saturday only option- For our Fresh Friday guests ... for our Fresh Friday guests. So we could kind of promote EP while promoting Fresh Friday, and it was like a Saturday activity after you go to Fresh Friday.

So we kinda made it like a whole weekend thing, check out two different- Yeah ... things and stuff. So we went right from, we were already in Atlanta, so we went over. It was in Roswell. Mm-hmm. So we went over there to the hotel. We were there pretty early, but we knew the guy who was doing security and everything, and he knew...

Well, we knew, we know pretty much the whole- Yeah ... dream team and everyone, and so we're like- So it was, it was set up like a hotel takeover- Yeah ... where you need tickets to even get- You can't even get the car back there ... that foot on the property. You, yeah. You can't even park your car in the parking lot without a ticket. Yeah. As it should be, and it was a good thing. But- Yeah ... they knew who we were, and they knew we were kinda there to

get... We had, our friends were there, and we were excited to go see them. And they were telling us, you know, "Come on, it's time to come," 'cause we were waiting until we could check in. We were kinda just, like, getting lunch and farting around and hung- Yeah we hung out with Rob and Lindsey at their house for a little while, and we were taking our time. And they called and they were like, "What are you doing? We're waiting on you." So everyone was just excited to see us.

It was, the Crackenbeards were there. They are very dear friends of ours, and close friends, and we were so excited. We hadn't seen them in so long. So they were there. We had a lot of, a lot of good friends there. And so we showed up, and we hung out with them. And as always, before we knew it, it was time for the room crawl. They had a room crawl, and it was at, like, 3:00, something like that. Yeah, something like that. So we had to get there. We said our hi's. We said hello to everyone.

It always takes an hour to get to where you're going because you just get stopped 1,000 times by everybody, and get hugged and everything. So kind of checked it out, the downstairs and the layout and stuff, and then they had the room crawl, which that's why I wanted to be there early to get to- Yeah room crawl's our fave. And it was so much fun. We got to go see all of our old friends, and made some new friends. And, it was good vibes, good times.

We got to try all the drinks and get all the souvenirs. Yeah. Well, we- The trinkets ... but, so we went to their room first, and we have to talk about it. We met a new friend. Mm-hmm. And they were telling about this friend that they had met through the weekend, and it was, he was terrified because he was a single male, but he was gay Yes And he was there just for the vibes Yeah And so- But he was terrified He was terrified And so scared. So scared.

And the Crackenbeards, as many of you may or may not know Mr. Crackenbeard is openly bisexual. Yeah. So they kinda brought him under their wing like, "You're safe here. It's fine" Stayed in a safe place And- And they had partied the night before on Friday. Yeah The night before they had their first night. So they had got to know him. He's been, he was hanging around. They became his safe spot.

They were with a single female that was the sweetest- Yeah, she was awesome ... most stereotypical, like, unicorn vibe that you could ever imagine. She was so much fun. She wasn't into lifestyle. She doesn't, wasn't there to play. She wasn't there to do anything. She, again, was just there for the vibe, just there for the music and the environment and being with us, and loved watching it all. But so they all just kind of stayed together- Yeah ... Friday night.

So then Saturday night we got there and we got introduce, introduced to him, and got to talking to him, and we all just telling him our story and the crazy stuff that we have been through and all of the different places we've been together. And I don't even remember how the conversations turned sexual, but we had been, me and Mr. Crackenbeard, we do a lot of back and forth. He's daddy dom vibes, and me, I'm submissive.

And I'm, he's one of the few that I can be myself like that, and we have a really good connection. Yeah And he's one of the few couples that we really like kind of- Yeah. We've known them for a long time ... bring our BDSM side out. Yeah And they understand the intricacies and they understand the, all the things, so you don't have to explain it.

It's just easy with them, but yeah, we got back and forth and things got heated and sexual, and he looked at me and he said, " I don't know, but I'm really feeling turned on right now by you." And I was like, "Good to know. Good to know." So that continued. Then we got ready. We went to our room. We checked into our hotel 'cause we were staying at the hotel next door 'cause they were sold out at the hotel.

Yeah But there was one like feet away from the hotel, so we stayed at the next door building. And we went and got ready And made our way down there. Said hellos, did all the dancing, did all the things. We all just kinda danced and vibed- Mm-hmm ... all night. We got on stage. We got the VIP pass, so we were able to go on stage with the DJs and dance. That was fun. We had a good time. Yeah, we just kind of vibed and danced all night. 'Cause it really is just- Yeah ... the EDM- Like a rave.

You just kinda- It's just a rave, yeah ... it is really just a swinger event, too, with- But there's just a whole bunch of swingers there ... music forward and yeah. Yeah. It, it was like a rave with swingers. And so we, everyone, started figuring out what they were doing for the night. We had a lot of options. There was a lot of opportunity.

We haven't seen a lot of our Swinger Society friends in a really- Yeah ... long time, and we really would love to play with everybody if possible, but that's never possible. So you have to pick and choose, and we wound up back in the same room with the Crackenbeards. And Tristan, he asked us to call him Tristan, came in and just was hanging out. We were all- Yeah ... just, you know, the awkward before you know what's gonna go down- Yeah ... but you don't know how to get there.

And started, we started playing around, and at one point I had his penis in my mouth- and another guy's penis in my mouth. And I played with a gay guy for the first time in my entire life, and it was, changed my life. It w- It was wild. At one point I was bent over with someone inside of me, and then they were gonna- Being penetrated, yeah ... be penetrated, all of us- Yeah ... with two men. And oh my gosh, I have always fantasized about bi experiences and stuff. But I, I was- ... so excited.

I don't think you understand how excited I was. I find- Yeah, I- ... that so hot. It was so hot. It, again, it wasn't perfect. Uh-huh. There was some hiccups. The, the night did not end up the way that we all planned. It got weird. It, it was turned into a more bigger deal than it should've been. There was some mis- miscommunication. Some nerves got jumped in, I think, and- Yeah ... it was, he, I think, was- Working through some things ... he was working through- Yeah ... what was happening.

It was a lot. It was the first time. I mean, it's not something that we normally do all the time for us either, so we were all just kind of what the heck just happened? They were playing while all this was going on. Yeah. This is me and Dallas. So me and Dallas- Yeah, Dallas ... were on the bed watching you while we were playing. And we're like, "Whoa." Yeah. We're like, "It's happening." It was so hot. And then all of a sudden- Uh-oh ... it wasn't.

All of a sudden it just was, it just Which, so when, so- Got weird. It didn't ha- It got weirder quick 'cause he, the, Tristan just ended up grabbing his clothes and walking out and not saying a word. Yeah. Yeah. And then, it kinda hit to the confidence. And- Yeah. That was just a hit to the, to the gut. Yeah. Yeah. And- didn't know what- No one else to, like, put it. Yeah. But he asked for lube, and it was a weird reaction.

We're all still kinda confused by the reaction, that it was, he just pr- literally just stopped, picked up his clothes, and left. yeah. And so we were all just kind of, like- What happened? confused. And we weren't sure what happened. You know, I think it was a lot. We have since talked to him. He has allowed us to share his story on the podcast. Yeah. I did ask. Which, that's huge.

So I contacted him to- Mm-hmm ... ask if this was okay with him if we talked about it, and then he asked us to call him Tristan. Yeah. So. And he was fine with it. And he- Everything was cool and everything was fine when we talked to him, so I don't know. But it was just one of those weird, again, we're not gonna sugarcoat it, there are some weird moments that happen. Not everything is perfect. Sex is strange sometimes.

Just being in that environment is strange and weird and uncomfortable sometimes. So it gets weird sometimes. And, you know, especially if you're new and you don't know what's going on and you're working through some things. And I rate it up there with some of my top five experiences in this lifestyle. Bi guys have always been a fantasy for me to do that, and I've never even thought about being with a gay man.

But it was- It took a, it took a lot of debriefing after that- We did ... working through it. And like- We- It was hot. It was really hot. It was a really hot time. It was s- one of my top favorites, but the ending wasn't too great. It could've been so good. It could've- As we say a lot- It could've been so good ... in this lifestyle. One of our- Could've been so good ... most used phrases, "It could've been so good," because it could've been so good. And it was good.

It, it's a learning experience, and it was wild. And it's just another one- Yeah ... of our crazy chronicles. Part of our crazy chronicle- ... that we wanted to share. And just reiterate that it's not always perfect, and it's not always super hot and super great and super wonderful and everybody's just super comfortable. It's not like that. People get cold feet. People get jealous. People have feelings. Yeah. And, you know, you just kinda work with it, and no hard feelings.

It, it was a great night. We ended up, we were like, "Okay." They, at that point it was, they were done. We were just- Yeah, it killed the vibe ... kinda killed the vibe with them. And so they went to bed, and we were s- We were ready to go. We were- We were- So we went adventuring. We were so turned on. We were so excited. And we went adventuring. It was so late, though, and everyone had already found a place by then, and we were finding the stragglers that were just kinda like after play.

Yeah, at this point it was what? Just kinda- 3:00, 4:00 in the morning. Yeah. Something like that. Everyone was already done playing. They were just kinda like getting snacks or vibing or just sitting outside or smoking or doing whatever. So we just kinda hung out with different people we never get to see very often, and it was a really short, it was just one night, so it was a very short time. Yeah, it went by fast. It went by really quickly.

But that whole weekend was a really good, really good weekend. Yeah. And I like that we're connecting with a lot of people that we haven't spoken to in a long time, and we're getting these opportunities to see them again. 'Cause unfortunately we- Just don't live near a lot of people. Yeah. And the times when we would get together, it was always, like, Swinger Society or Secrets events and stuff.

Yeah. And we met a lot of these people on Discord and in the beginning, and TikTok and stuff, and we live all over the country. So it's good when we get a chance to see everyone, hug their necks, and there's never enough time with everybody. No. Ever. And we always wish we could play with everyone and have a great time with everyone, but it's just not, not possible. But yeah, that was that. And then... We ca- we turned around, came home, and then we went... It was family time.

Yeah, that was our grandson's birthday, so we we're having his party at our house, so it was straight home to clean, do everything- cook. Decorate, cook. Decorate, get ready, and we were right into family mode, and our grandson is a year old now, which is crazy. Wild. And yeah, we did family time. And then after that, we- Wild Ad- ... had spring break. We ended up taking the kids to Wild Adventures. We went to South Georgia, and then we headed- While we're down there.

Yeah, we headed over to the Gulf, and we had some beach time, and we found the cutest little beach town. I couldn't even tell you the name of it anymore. It's that far gone in the brain. Yeah. I'd... It's such a little- Something shell. It wa- yeah ... it was such a little tiny spot that we just found, happened to find. We literally just- It re- it- ... picked a spot ... it was no beach town I'd ever been in.

It was such a rural- Residential, yeah ... community- Yeah ... that, and really this beach was almost like a private beach. Yeah. It was, it was. Like, it was crazy. Yeah. But then, you know, we got our beach time in. We got- We got our time in some good seafood. Got to eat good food. We just enjoyed spring break with the kids and relaxing before things get crazy, 'cause we know our schedule is filling up super quick, super fast. Yeah. And it's go time. It's swinger season.

So we are in full preparation for a new swinger season. Yeah. And yeah. Yeah. We went to Wild Adventures. That was fun. That was actually really cute. If you've never been to South Georgia, and you want a smaller, especially if you have younger kids, it's- Yeah ... like, a safari. It's got the animals. It's got the roller coasters. It has enough rides, and you can do the whole park in a day. It's not- Yeah, and it's- ... that serious.

It's- Yeah ... you don't have to kill yourself, and it's not that bad, and we're definitely gonna go back. It's pretty cheap side. We got the d- dining pass, Yeah ... you get one meal, and then you get two, three snacks. Three snacks? Yeah, you get, like... Yeah, something like that. And then unlimited drinks all day, which is a little- Yeah ... let alone worth just that by itself is worth it because those are, like, $20 a pop, so you know how amusement parks are.

Yeah. So yeah, we had good family time. We've been really trying to get out of the house. It's finally warm again. I can feel myself becoming human again. And we're starting to enjoy the sunshine and getting us some beach time in. We're trying to get there. And then- You got to go to the Renaissance Festival ... I went to the fair. We have lived here for four years now. Yeah, four year- No, five. Five years? Yeah, in May, it was five. Mm-hmm. Five years now.

And every year, our Renaissance Fair here is only on the weekends, so very inconvenient for his schedule. And usually when he takes off, we're doing some kind of work or something swinger related. So, um, me and a group of our friends went, and we decided to go. We went on one, the opening day, actually. Yeah. We all dressed up. I've always-- We've been to every Renaissance Fair we've ever could find, and we've always loved them so much and so hard. We've never dressed up.

We've always talked about dressing up and said we were gonna dress up. And so I was so excited to find a group of, I think it was 12 of us, 8 of us, something like that. I don't know, big group of us, and we all dressed up. And we found more friends from Pad there, just a whole bunch of really good people. So parallel and similar to the swinger land because- Yeah ... everyone's just pushing that envelope. They were like- Mm-hmm ... taking off their shirts.

They were pushing-- You're always-- They're pushing it. And then you're in character. It's, like, got that role play thing going on, everyone that-- I don't know. It's so hot. I-- Every guy had black eyeliner and, like- Yeah, 'cause it was, like, Viking themed ... white contact in. Yeah. Yeah, it was the Viking vibe, and everyone had wings and big bearded men. And I was, I was so turned on all day long. It was ridiculous.

But we had a great time, and I got to drink mead and watch the boys do archery and throw things. But we're planning on going Memorial Day, I believe. Yeah. I think we're, we're gonna try- Actually Monday, Memorial Day. The only weekday that they are open is a Monday. And so we said if we're gonna do it-- And they're only open for, like, two months or something, and then they close.

They're only open- Yeah This one's different than all the ones we've ever been to, but-- So the only weekday is Memorial Day, so I think we're gonna get dressed up and go back. It's pirates, so we have pirate costumes. So I think we're gonna go do pirate and go to the Renaissance Fair one more time because he hasn't been yet, and he needs to, and I'm still wanting to go back 40 more times. So that's the plan. And then- We had our second Fresh Friday.

We had our second Fresh Friday, and that's when Crackenbeards, we had seen them at EP, and we told them about Fresh Fridays, and we talked them into coming and checking out our Fresh Friday event. So they came. And they brought- And- ... some friends too. Yeah, they brought friends, and that was all the glitters. So it was the glitter. Yeah. So kinda like another, another one of my faves. So this one's leather and lace. Almost like you get to pick, pick the themes or something.

So everyone's like, "I'm the one making the flyers," and I'm the one... Yeah... our friends Crackenbeards, we saw them at EP and we spent time with them, so we convinced them to come check out a Fresh Friday event, so they were there. Yes. And always a great time. And then we got to bring them, we got to... They had met Anything But Vanilla a few times, but we really got to- Yeah ... get to hang out and get to know them a little bit more. And we got to f- we actually took pictures.

We always have good intentions every time we're together to put lingerie on and take pictures. But we actually- You actually got, you actually got them this time ... got a few pictures. Don't love them, but we got them, and I have them. And I can't share them anywhere 'cause they're not the most appropriate, but we did do it, and we had taken pictures. And yeah, it was a good night. So we hung out in our room. We shared a room with the Crackenbeards. Yeah. And we decorated a little bit.

We had some lights. They brought their toy box, which is genius, and we laid out all the things on the k- It's like a hairdresser or nail person's like r- rolly q- cart with all the drawers. Yeah. The different boxes that stacks and has wheels. So smart, so genius. Yeah, and yeah. And but we hung out in the room, took, got, you guys took pictures. We did a couple shots, and then we headed to Trap. And we had to go early. Yeah. So we got in there, set up a table, got everything ready.

We're still trying to iron out the details and the hiccups. We do have a really big discount. We do have a lot... It's a new, it's a new thing at Trap, so of course everyone's trying to get used to that, so. Yeah. A lot of our time for our first hour there is really just trying to make sure everybody gets the right prices. Yeah. Everyone is together, everyone gets the right- Yeah wristbands. Everybody's where they're- Yeah ... supposed to be. Whoever wants a tour gets in.

It's, we're still all, it's our, that was our second one, so we're really- Yeah. So for anybody that comes to our and tells them they're with us, they get the discount. Yeah. And they'll put on another wristband So we know that they're with us. So we know they're with us, so we can make sure we, you know- Like, throughout the night we can check in- Yeah with them and make sure they're okay. We just need some type of visual cue- Yeah ... to be like, "Yeah, you

came with us. Hey, nice to-" Just to check in and- "... nice to see you here," or, "Nice to meet you," or whatever it may be. But yeah, there was a few hiccups there, but we got that ironed out. And then we s- started the night with dinner like we do, and then hung out all night, danced, did the wobble, did all the things. The trap things. All the trap things. Yeah. And then I feel like we left pretty early. Yeah. Yeah. And of course, went back to the hotel.

Some nights you just go back to your room and you prefer to play there. Less public space. Yeah. And that's kinda their vibe. A more controlled environment and with people that we trust and love. So we went back to the hotel for that to happen, and we reacquainted ourselves with each other. Had a good old time together and- It was, it was pretty long session- Yeah, it was ... of, yeah, it was a lot of... It was, we were up till, what, 5:00, 5:30? Wee hours of the morning. Time's different there.

Yeah. Time's not the same there. But I was, I thought ahead this time and got late checkout. Yes. We had 1:00 checkout. So we could sleep in. So that was, always, just always do it. Always just do it. Go ahead and get the late checkout. And yeah, we had a great time, and they're coming back Friday. so can't be too bad. Yeah. So yeah, they're, We've got them coming back again on the 15th, so they'll be there if you're there.

And then, yeah, the next day, as we do, 'cause we don't plan anything we do, we went, we had to check out. They had to go home 'cause they have a baby. So they had to go home, and we went and we killed time, had food, and went to Rob and Lindsey's house to hang out. Well, they had packed all of our- 'Cause they, yeah ... signs and stuff in their car, so we had- Yeah ... to go get that before we came home. We missed when they tore the table down. I don't know what we were doing.

We were being occupied by something. But they tore the table down and just threw it in their car, so we had to go to their house to get our banners and all of our carts and things like that. So we hung out for a little while, and then it doesn't take very much to talk us into things. They talked us into going to one of the biggest nights of Trapeze is Swingchella. That's one of their parties- Yeah ... among their New Year's and their Halloween parties.

That's one of their big spring parties, and it's neon, all the things. And this was neon cur- circus theme and stuff. Yeah, something like that. Yeah. It's like the big, biggest night at Trapeze, and we've always wanted to go. We've never went, so- We decided to go. So I had, we had no clothes at all. No. Nothing for Trapeze. We were not prepared to go. No shoes, nothing. Thankfully, we, I'm pretty much the same size as Lindsey, and you're the same size as Rob for the most part.

We wear the same size clothes, and it works out perfectly. Yeah. So we went shopping- We got to raid their closet ... in their closet. I actually pref- I liked that outfit way n- better than I've liked any other outfit that I've worn to Trapeze, which is crazy 'cause I'd never put it on before that. But we pulled it off and we did all the neon, and we had, you know, swingers. Well, we always have something somebody can wear. We've got plenty of fishnets or some kind of something.

So we got lingerie, we got our clothes, and we ended up doing swingchella, and that was fun. It was much busier that night. It was completely- Well- packed. Not at first ... e- eventually. At first. At first so usually on big nights like that, it's line out the door at open. Usually. Yeah. And it was slow until about 11:00. Yeah. Everybody was, like, kinda worried. It was like, "Where's everybody at?" Even, like- Kept going in the office the staff- And we were like, "Uh" ... was like, "Uh."

Yeah. And then all of a sudden e- everybody started rolling in about 11:00, and it, they kept rolling in till about- It was crazy ... 12:30, 1:00. And by the time we left, it was packed. Yeah. They ended up with a really good turnout. A lot of people. Lots of fun. It was a good night. We did a lot of dancing, a lot of running around. Yeah, running around. Time, time zoomed past us, and we left not too early, not too late.

We did a lot of- Yeah, it was a good- ... mingling and talking and stuff ... time, I feel. Yeah. And then we went back to the house, got comfortable, got warm, 'cause it was chilly. It got chilly- Yeah ... that weekend. I don't know. It was weird. It was, like, one of those freak times, and it was cold when we woke up. Mm-hmm. But we ended up putting our sweatpants on, getting comfortable. You know, had a few drinks, talking, laughing, and we turned in pretty early.

It wasn't, like, a crazy night. We had the whole weekend we had just done, so- Yeah. ... we were tired, and we, like I- Went to bed and yeah, and then bring us up to just what? Two weeks ago now. I got to go... One of our really close friends is, he does- He's a professional fighter ... he's, does professional fighting, and he had done a fight before.

We hadn't been able to make it, so this was the first one since we really became good friends with him, and we, I told him since the beginning I was gonna be there, no matter what. And he had to work, so I went to support him. That was crazy. Nothing like I had pictured in my head on TV and what you see on TV. If you watched on pay-per-view, you could see me and Lindsey right in every single picture. We were right there.

We had really, really good s- table seats and stuff, and it didn't go the way that we had all hoped. It was a kind of sad ending and it's hard to watch every- somebody that's fought so hard, worked so hard, and just the amount of work they do going into this, and the athleticism. Like, I, it, you just don't... You think they're just punching each other. It's not that.

Just to watch it in real life is a whole nother level, and to f- see it and to feel it and to watch it and serious guys there that have really trained hard and worked hard and, any time you get a knockout... you know, you just... He was, he made it 45 seconds or something like that, and it was just like, breaks your heart. He just had a bad hit and, you know, it happens sometimes, and super proud of him. Such a good time. We had a great, great time there.

We got to go to Assembly Studios in Atlanta, which is Universal Studios, and be backstage in that. It was just amazing to be in these giant hangars for movies and stuff. And then they had the fake city fronts and- Yeah ... the houses, and they had the- The facades of- ... facades of all the- New York and- New York, New Orleans. They had- Yeah ... like Italy one. They had... It was so cool.

So of course after the fight me and Rob and Lindsey form and fashion, we had to stop, 'cause we had kept saying "Oh, we should definitely come here one time and take pictures and videos," but it's not close to their house. It's a little far. We're like, "No, we're not gonna go back over there." "We're all in the car right now. Why don't we just do it now?" So he pulled over and we spent a good hour just skipping and hopping and pretending and having a great time. We sat on the steps.

We took a bunch of cute pictures and videos that I don't know what I'll ever use them for. I don't know. They're very adorable. It's us barefoot in New York City and we played and pretend and danced and got a lot of really cute stuff. We'll, you'll see them probably here and there. If you see us in front of city buildings, that's probably from that.

And then, yeah, that pretty much was the last real thing that we did, and now filming this a week prior to when this comes out, I am about ready to head to Nashville- Oh, yeah with a group of our friend, the same, pretty much the same group- Yeah, so when this episode comes out- Of people ... you had, you- That we usually mess with ... already back. Yeah, so when we're recording this it hasn't yet happened, but yeah, it'll be last weekend when you listen to this.

And three of us are solo women, four couples, and it's gonna be- A time. Yeah. It's gonna be a time. Yeah. There's 11 of us going with the girls, but yeah, I'm sharing a room with two other girls that I love so much, and I'm so excited to spend some girl time. I'm excited for solo girl time with other solo girls, which I never really get. I'm usually solo- Yeah ... with a couple or solo with couples.

Yeah. So it'll be fun to actually get to hang out with some single girls and do Nashville with them, and we're going to a Sullivan King show on Friday, so it'll be my first EDM concert, so I'm excited to get dressed up in black if, e- bring out my little- Emo metal girl- ... from my, that I've suppressed over the years. But she's still in there from my teenage years, and I'm excited to just dance. And we've done Nashville twice before.

Once we never really did downtown very much, and then the other time it was just me and him. But we were different people at a different time. Yeah. And so- Yeah ... I'm excited to kinda let loose with some swinger friends, and a vanilla setting is always fun, and we're all sharing an Airbnb, so it, it's gonna be a good time. I'm, I'm excited.

I'm freaking out 'cause, I'd ordered a birthday present, expedited shipping, and it's running late due to logistical problems, and so birthday present's gonna be late, kinda is a bummer. All of the stuff I ordered to wear is all being delayed. I don't know what the heck's going on, but I, everything is maybe will be here, and now I'm leaving a day early to get to there early, so I'm, like, not counting on any of my clothes that I ordered. It just isn't off to a great start.

Yeah. But we're gonna be positive, and it's gonna be a great time, and I'm excited, and it's gonna be fun. And I am excited to just explore Nashville more. I don't really know Nashville very much, so from what we've experienced, we like it a lot, so it'll be fun. And then after that, we have Fresh Friday. Fresh Friday. Which is this Friday. So come there. Definitely come say hi. Even if you're not new to the club, just come and you get a discount.

You don't have to go shopping- Nothing you need something crazy for the crazy, yeah ... anything too intimidating. We're trying on purpose to keep the themes just pink, just leather, just sparkles. Something that anyone should have something they can pull together or buy relatively cheap and put it together. Yeah. And all else fails, wear a black dress.

That's always the option. I don't think I'll look great in a black dress. I think you'll look really good in one. That's just me. And then yeah, we have things here and there.
