Ever wondered how society's binary thinking and 'bisexual ignorance' impacts those of us with fluid sexual orientations? We delve into Butcher's personal experiences of bi-ignorance, societal pressures, and how they have shaped how she operates within middle-class UK. We highlight the importance of safe spaces for discussion, breaking the shackles of binary thinking and fully embracing the spectrum of our experiences. It's not just about bisexuality, we also touch-on the fascinating world of ...
Well... What a journey we've all been on for the past 100 episodes. In case you haven't listened to all of them, we've tried to sum up the core thinking behind this podcast into a single episode for you. (If you have listened to the previous 99, then this is just some light revision, GCSE style) Thank you as always for your support. We will be taking a few weeks off to plan for what we're euphemistically calling 'Season 2' and will be back in the summer. In the meantime, we'll be pos...
This weeks episode did not go to plan... So we've had to panic record a quick update (and an apology) and we'll be back on track for Episode 100 next week. As always, send us your feedback, ideas and advice to hunter@polypocketpodcast.com Link in bio 💚
This CNM journey can be a rocky one and in this episode we took a closer look at why people would pause from it. The focus was mainly supposed to be swinging but it’s us so there are natural intersections and free flowing conversations that goes across a spectrum of CNM practices! Link in the bio ❤️
There were a lot of feelings and emotions going around with this particular episode. Butcher got angry, Hunter talked her down 🤣 Guess when you’re debating feelings and their place within ENM, polyamory and swinging it really does get people going!

Going to put it out there - Butcher was not well when we recorded this so we hope it makes sense and somewhat entertaining. We will at some point dig deeper into this topic considering all types of partners but for now we wanted to focus on the anchor partner comms! Let us know your thoughts! Link in the bio ❤️
In this episode we discuss the art of managing the de-escalation of relationships when you’re polyamorous and the potential reasons why you might do this. It still surprises us how difficult break-ups in changes to dynamics (especially if you’re effectively going back on something) can be. In this episode we try and unpick this whilst also asking for kindness and grace when dealing with others heads and hearts. Have a listen and as always, let us know what you think! Link in the bio ❤️
An insightful conversation with the brains behind PolyamoryUK. This dream team - James and Jo are living their fullest, authentic poly lives and were absolutely here for it! We touched on so many things but fundamentally we discussed how Polyamory works here in Great Britain. The pros and cons. These two need to come back on again soon and we’re looking forward to future collaboration on a number of projects with these fabulous individuals!
So here it is - the review of Le Boudoir. With two experiences of different nights under our belts (so to speak) we thought we’d do a little review. Find out more about our thoughts of the venue, the staff and more!
This one was a great topic to get our teeth into. Jealousy is such a hot topic in the circles we move in from poly connections through to monogamous people seeking to understand the dynamic. This was supported by a recent trip to LB last week and the events that unfolded (all good but because of the work and conversations we’ve had surrounding it!) Ultimately though, we wanted to get to the root cause. The THING that sets off this interesting and complex emotional state! There’s still so m...
Myself and Ms Captain recorded this session aggggggggeeeeessss ago! She is the most wonderful, authentic, insightful soul and this is evident in the discussion around foods to use with sensual experiences… Be it with two, three, four or more! Thank you so much for your time Ms C and giving the listeners something “spicy” on Valentine’s Day! ❤️
Episode 90 was a deep and meaningful discussion about the dark fears that come along for the ride when you’re on the journey from monogamy through to polyamory. What is it that truly scares you and why. Why is it that a lot of the time we don’t know what it truly is or we can’t say so we project our fears on to our anchor partners meaning that’s our fears inevitably “come true.” Finally what does this means for your existing relationship(s) and can there ever be a way out or forward from this...
Is this lifestyle and our relationship constructs just one big fantasy? And is that OK? In this episode and debate this at length and for once POTENTIALLY land on some sort of resounding answer! It does happen every so often! 🤣
A deep and raw chat about if opening up is for everyone, who should possibly avoid it and if you really want it, what work needs to be done! We also discuss at length if there are different levels people can open to based on the conditioning and willingness to break out of these cycles. It’s an endless topic… possibly without any real answers but we hope you enjoy and take away as much from it as we gained by having this talk!
This one was a toughie… A lot of our regrets come from not seizing the moment more than the fallout of situations because from these experiences we have grown… So join us on our meandering, heartfelt, conversation of living and life to the full!
This was an interesting conversation where by we discussed how many new to poly, swing, CNM, ENM all go through this to some level. It easily done and who doesn’t love the feeling of being a kid in a sweet shop? 🍬 But we’re all adults and we all know that we can all have too much of a good thing before it becomes bad for us… that said we all have different levels of tolerance before it all becomes too much so hats off to those who can catch ‘em all without collateral damage… what’s your secr...
This week Butcher returns from France, Hunter eats some food and we review the Channel 4 series 'The Couple Next Door' and discuss whether the experience of the participants in this drama is relatable to the community (whilst keeping a straight face). We also spend some time talking about how the English language has insufficient words for us to express how we feel and that the conflation of feelings around the word 'Jealousy' can be misunderstood. As we wrap up we talk about the importance...
Hope you've had a great holiday break... We are back with the sparkle of holiday cheer still lingering, spinning tales of sneaky gift-giving and sharing how our extended love networks bolster our spirits. And in this sprit we are making plans for 2024 and establishing what our new years resolutions are. Navigating our unique landscapes, we've learned the art of balancing the day-to-day vanilla with the spice of our lifestyle—valuing heartfelt communication and solid boundaries. In moments of...

That's where our journey begins this episode, as we recount a year swept up in the highs of connection and the lows of navigating the intricate dance of polyamorous relationships. We talk about a year crammed with personal breakthroughs, from the electric spark of a first KK party anniversary to intimate ventures abroad that tested our independence and resolve. Imagine stepping off a plane in France, heart pounding wi...
