Swing Nation
A lifestyle media-and-events brand — podcast, content, and takeover events — with a primary focus on the Florida and US Southeast lifestyle scene. Swing Nation hosts regular takeovers at lifestyle-friendly resorts and partners with other event organizers for larger productions.
The Swing Nation is a long-running lifestyle podcast hosted by Dan and Lacy, with several hundred published episodes and an active presence at Florida lifestyle events. The show describes itself as a podcast by swingers, for swingers, and its episode catalogue covers takeover recaps, lifestyle education, guest interviews and listener questions. Episodes are distributed across the major podcast platforms; the brand's central hub is theswingnation.net.
Event-side, The Swing Nation is most visible as a participant and co-host at takeovers rather than as the lead organiser of a single flagship event. Episode titles document recaps from takeovers at Secrets Hideaway in Kissimmee — including the "Treasures and Pleasures" Swinger Society takeover — and the smaller "Electric Pleasures" event in Gulf Breeze, Florida. The podcast's centre of gravity is the U.S. Southeast lifestyle scene, with regular cruise and resort coverage including the Bliss Cruise.
Editorially, the show sits in the same neighbourhood as several other established lifestyle podcasts (Casual Swinger, That Other Lifestyle, Two Plus Two), with a tone that leans toward newer-couple education without being aimed exclusively at beginners. Sponsorships across lifestyle dating platforms, adult retail and sexual-health brands position the show as a community-facing media property rather than a private-organiser brand, which is how its takeover affiliations and hosted events should be read.

- Secrets Hideaway Resort — A clothing-optional, lifestyle-friendly resort in Kissimmee, Florida — closer to a year-round lifestyle property than a vacation resort that occasionally hosts takeovers. Secrets Hideaway hosts a busy calendar of group takeovers throughout the year (Swinger Society "Forever Young", Beyond Lifestyle, iCandy, Swing Nation), each with their own demographic and theme. Popular for US East Coast couples wanting a domestic lifestyle weekend without flying internationally.
- Takeover — A lifestyle event held at a hotel or resort that has been booked exclusively (or nearly so) for swingers for a set number of days. Hotel takeovers blend conference, party, and play in a single property.
