After one of us is left feeling distinctly un-chosen in her polyamorous setup we ask the question - how do you stop performing the polished version of yourself, hold your ground, and step into the messy reality of true vulnerability?

For the Plot Podcast

Flying to a foreign country for a first date with a top-secret stranger just because a psychic and a plant medicine journey told you to? Yeah, we do it for the plot. In this episode, we unpack the ultimate romantic detour: a spontaneous trip to Norway to finally meet "007." He checks all the boxes on paper, but what happens when 10/10 emotional connection meets questionable physical chemistry? We explore the danger of getting so attached to the idea of a perfect story that we forget to actually live it. We also challenge the idea of finding your "purpose," break down the top five regrets of...

#011 - When Good Dates Have Bad Sex...And The Dick Slap show art #011 - When Good Dates Have Bad Sex...And The Dick Slap

For the Plot Podcast

We’re getting brutally honest about the difference between just having sex and being properly laid. But here’s the reality: sometimes the date is great, the tension is there, and the execution is still an absolute disaster. We spill the tea on navigating bedroom blunders, exploring the emotional yo-yo of dating a guy who is trying out polyamory and the psychological power play of withholding sex to protect your ego. One of us recounts an encounter involving a blindfold, zero clitoral awareness, and being “assaulted by a hot dog,” making us realize that sometimes it's okay to...

For the Plot Podcast

The episode kicks off with a ride down the Lisbon coast in a three-wheeled, Batmobile-style convertible. Thanks to a wingman maneuver from The Entrepreneur, one of us gets number of an Armani-model lookalike through a car window. But when Stoplight Guy takes his sweet time texting back, it sparks a major debate: is it possible for a woman to be too forward?

#009 - Goodbye Guru show art #009 - Goodbye Guru

For the Plot Podcast

"Are you waiting to hate him?" Society teaches us how to start relationships, but we’re terrible at ending them. We challenge the myth that "love is all you need" by breaking down a conscious uncoupling with The Guru and why relaxing into your feminine energy requires a masculine container. Plus, we explore the profound grief of losing a dad, the art of leaving a relationship at its peak, and why getting smacked by an ex’s Tiffany necklace during sex is a final dealbreaker.

#008 - Are Men Taking up Too Much Headspace? show art #008 - Are Men Taking up Too Much Headspace?

For the Plot Podcast

Our roommate calls us out: "You two spend way too much mental energy on men." But here's the thing - choosing a life partner is literally the most important decision you'll ever make. We defend giving relationships the attention they deserve, exploring whether "love yourself first" culture is actually helpful or just another way to shame women for wanting partnership. One of us lists the five qualities she needs in a man and realizes how rare that combination actually is, the other questions whether we need to be perfect before we deserve love. We debate rules versus authenticity,...

#006 - RBSDM: What It Is & Why Should You Do It! show art #006 - RBSDM: What It Is & Why Should You Do It!

For the Plot Podcast

Time to demystify our favorite dating tool: the RBDSM conversation. Not the kinky kind, this framework covers Relationship status, Boundaries, Desires, Sexual health, and Meaning. We break down how to introduce it (yes, even with language barriers and fuck boys in Nicaragua), why it's actually foreplay when done right, and how it filters out people who aren't aligned with you. One of us has used it dozens of times with everyone from pro surfers to festival hookups, the other struggles to execute it authentically. We share success stories, epic failures, and why vulnerability is the ultimate...

#004 - Walks of Pride, Walks of Shame show art #004 - Walks of Pride, Walks of Shame

For the Plot Podcast

Why do we care so much about other people's judgment around sex? We unpack the shame that shows up after one-night stands, even when no one's watching. One of us carries two mattresses through a festival after naked spooning (not sex!) under a tree, the other spirals after a consensual hookup that no one even knows about. We trace shame back to religious purity culture, virginity as identity, and the double standards around "the number." Plus: reclaiming bodily autonomy after assault, why depression is just a frequency you can outrun, and how to turn walks of shame into walks of pride through...

#005 - How Do I Know I'm in Love? show art #005 - How Do I Know I'm in Love?

For the Plot Podcast

How do you know when you're in love versus just loving someone? We unpack the difference between infatuation and partnership, examining the four ingredients of a lasting relationship: deep admiration, fighting well together, shared vision, and ease. One of us questions whether she's truly in love or just protecting herself with walls, the other reflects on loving her ex-husband so deeply she thought he hung the moon. We explore the jellybean theory of emotional reciprocity, why being too practical kills the magic, and the fear that examining love too closely might make it disappear.
