#53 The Hedonist Mentor (Re release): Kinkalong on 40 Years of BDSM, Bisexuality & Erotic PsychologyDescription
What can decades of lived BDSM history teach us about power, desire and the erotic mind?
We’re closing out the year with a special End-of-Year Erotic Realm Series — two episodes every week, some brand new, some returning favourites.
Together they trace the biggest themes that emerged across 2025: gender, BDSM roles, fantasy, and the psychology of desire.
You’ll hear our first-ever live recordings from the Erotic Realm Confessional at OzKinkFest, reflections from past guests, and a 40th birthday special exploring my own erotic realm — all building toward a New Year’s episode on kinky desires and erotic resolutions for 2026.
This week we go all the way back to episode 3 and explore The Hedonist Mentor: Kinkalong on 40 Years of BDSM, Bisexuality & Erotic Psychology
In this episode, we delve into the rich experiences and wisdom of Marc, a bisexual hedonist, switch, and mentor with decades of involvement in the kink community.
We discuss:
- The evolution of the kink scene over the past few decades.
- The intersection of bisexuality and mental health in navigating identity.
- Lessons learned from living the lifestyle as a mentor and switch.
- Balancing power dynamics in relationships with his Domme wife.
- And much more...
