Description
Even Mormon couples get the "7-year itch", but what happens when (after 10 years) one of them decides to scratch that itch with a BDSM-style flogger? Hosts "Red" and "Blue" take you along for the ride as they continue their journey from being a straight-laced super-young, monogamous, Mormon married couple, to opening up their marriage to desires and experiences that were previously off limits. "How do you make that switch?", "What does that even look like?", "Why not just get divorced?" are a few of the questions Red and Blue answer in hopes to provide insight into their unconventional marriage dynamic that seems to work...surprisingly well.
To make matters even more interesting, Red & Blue also discuss how they choreograph their life around their two sons, as they strive to understand the needs of their younger son who has been diagnosed with high-functioning Autism, as well as keeping up with the needs of their older son who is seemingly too smart for his own good. As they talk it out, Red & Blue hope to share and discover new perspectives on their relationships, each other, and themselves. You may never see the world the same way again!

Red & Blue are back for Season 2! No they didn't initially plan on making the previous episode a season finale, but with everything that's happened since it seemed like a good chapter marker as they dive headfirst into the the world of Open Marriage and Polyamory
Red & Blue banter about flirty attraction, keeping sexual tension in the friend zone and the importance of feeling attractive. Red sings a bit, and Blue shares his epiphany toward submission. Blue shares his frustrations with his own "conventionally unattractive" physical traits, and kicks off his new self-evolutionary experiment/project by revealing his current goal: The manifestation of physical attraction through self-alignment and shifting of perspective. Red & Blue also discuss exclusivity, non-exclusivity, monogamy, non-monogamy, polyamory, and the tragedy of opportunities to connect that are left sitting on the table. Also, bad polygamy jokes vs acceptable polygamy jokes.
Red & Blue return (after surviving another Spooky Szn) to pick up where they left off in their BDSM discussion: Dominance. You may need to forget everything you think you know about BDSM Dominance (definitely forget most of what Hollywood taught you about dominance). Between Red's experience-based BDSM information, and Blue's attempts at linking it back to his outdoor adventures in the Boy Scouts, you may learn something new...or at least gain a weird new perspective on BDSM dominance...or maybe you'll just walk away with a really good app idea.
Red & Blue PLAY THEIR OWN RECORDS!! In the thick of Spooky Szn, time is limited, resources are waning, but things are gettin' creepy. During his hunt for Spooky media, Blue dove into the archives of his hard drives and came across a bunch of the music he (and sometimes Red) have recorded over the years and decided to set aside the Spooky tracks for Red & Blue to listen to and share with the world. It's a bit of a cop-out, but it's also a lot of fun to hear the weird, hauntingly eerie music that Red & Blue made during their very early years of marriage. Not much has changed...still weird, still Spooky.**NOTE: Red is allowed to touch whatever she wants in the house. The Theremin is a proximity-based instrument that is played without touching it......Blue isn't a control freak. Blue is an over-thinker.
Blue gives a heads up regarding how chaotic it's going to be for the next few weeks. Don't worry! We're still releasing episodes, but they'll likely be a bit off the normal schedule that we barely stick to in the first place. Stick around to the end of this episode for a little surprise to kick off SPOOKY SEASON!!!
Red & Blue discuss discipline and how it relates to the BDSM lifestyle, religion, and life in general. Blue coughs a lot.
Red & Blue bicker a bit over bondage and Bacon. Red guides us through a high-level view of Bondage 101 while Blue interrupts by being generally not so funny and in kind of a bad mood. Get tied up in one of their shortest episodes yet, no promises that it'll leave any marks.
Red & Blue return (after an unscheduled "mid-season break") to take the Enneagram Personality Type test and discuss the results. What type number are you? Do you have a wing?
Red & Blue candidly discuss their experiences with mental health. TRIGGER WARNING: topics discussed may be triggering for some sensitive listeners. They're discussed openly, freely, and in a way that is meant to emphasize and promote the normalcy of seeking out professional help - something that is probably more common among mentally healthy individuals than convention might let on. It's probably more common (and more necessary) than gym attendance...but that's just a wild guess. Again - there is very little left out of this episode when it comes to addressing and discussing the journey of getting around, over, through and past recurring dark thoughts and dark feelings that we all more commonly know as "anxiety and depression".
Red & Blue take their BDSM Quizes 1 question at a time and discuss the questions and results. This is an intro episode to the BDSM series that will follow over the next few weeks
Red & Blue discuss and honor their Fathers...mostly honor...
**TRIGGER ALERT!!** The content of this episode is more graphic than usual and could potentially trigger some listeners. If you've got a need for elite seed, email Blue at Howwevemadeit@gmail.com. Also, the swear words aren't edited out of this episode.
Red & Blue discuss the first 7 years of their marriage as DINKs (dual income, no kids), and the feelings of anxiety, exclusion and alienation from the "army-of-children" mindset that dominates Mormon culture, and how those feelings put a damper on the perks and freedoms that also accompany childlessness...but don't be discouraged, Chico! Red & Blue also discuss the mysterious turning point when all of that went away and perfect, super-human babies entered their family. What changed? Was it the water supply or was it something more supernatural?? Listen and draw your own conclusions on how Red & Blue made it fertile!! (...and then stocked up on birth control!)
Red returns (after a Mother's Day break) to share her "Mom-speriences".
While Red enjoys her Mother's Day, Blue flies solo in this episode and pays tribute to the Mom(s) in his life. Warning: it gets a little spooky...
Red & Blue discuss how and why they kept their secret porn use from each other for the first 10 years of their marriage.
Blue explains wtf happened to this week's episode.
Red & Blue begin uncovering their first trans-episodic topic, and it's kind of a big one (TWSS): Pornography. Travel back in time to a world desperate for digital documentation as Red & Blue discuss how pornography impacted their formative years throughout the '80s and '90s. It may sound all too familiar to you...or it may sound completely messed up. Either way, it was what it was...and now they is...*Trigger Alert* It gets playfully candid and crude, and the subjects discussed could potentially be triggering to some listeners.
Red & Blue get IRL about Cyber relationships (social media for all the people who don't remember the late '90s world-wide web lingo). It gets a little heated and a little frumpy, but hey...that's cyber-love. It's miraculous that only a few swear words were accidentally left in...listen up and it'll be like auditory Where's Waldo! Enjoi!
