Okay, that's fine. Are you ready? Yeah, I'm a little nervous. Speaker2: All right, let's go to the phone line.
Speaker1:
Hi, this is Audrey from Twin Peaks, and I have a two-part question for your Tuesday Talk podcast. The first part is, have you ever considered owning or managing your own lifestyle club? And the second part is, hypothetically, if you owned your own Dream Swingers Club, what kind of features features and events would you have is there anything you would do different from other clubs thanks she sounded very professional in the question she actually sounded pretty odd i mean i don't know voices can be sexy for us she definitely had a sexy voice yeah so her question is one would you have we ever considered owning our own lifestyle we get this question a lot actually and then if we did own it how would we make it different or what would we do differently okay so what do you think would we own let's answer the first part would we own our own lifestyle club i don't i think never say never because at this season of our life we very much enjoy traveling and having um those experiences going all over but who's to say in 20 years that we're just like over that so i don't i think right now in this season of life no but to be honest with you it would be nice to be home right i mean we are home but it would make things on us a little easier with my parents at our house and sick people it would make things easier but i i don't foresee that in the near future yeah so we we have been asked this question a lot and i think my answer has always been we like traveling yeah and and part of the reason just to go see new parts of the country but when we talk to club owners and different event organizers but specifically club owners and managers it seems to me that most of their stories are similar as in they kind of feel like babysitters a little bit is that you know if you think if you have the same club that you go to every weekend you're going to get a lot of the same people you know and i think that's when you get like clicks and then that's when like you know bobby got in a fight with jill and i feel like if you were in the same place every weekend you'd be more engulfed in that kind of stuff yeah where us you know we're in kentucky one weekend and then we're in florida and then we're in texas and then we're in you know wherever um some of our members do travel and they do come to a lot of our events but very few of them go to all of our events and all of our events are definitely a different crowd each time yeah um and so i think it helps mix and mingle and so it doesn't become mundane and we don't get into the weeds of like trying to solve people's marriages or trying you know i mean we just don't get involved with that we do a little with our friends not fixing their marriages but our french our friend group there's a little bit of that but i think that's with every friend group and i don't think that that really matters vanilla friend groups you have to do for sure yeah um i would not be opposed to owning a club but not managing it um like tempted for example if i don't know if she's ever been to tempted but it's owned by a couple and then ran by another couple and i i would be i would like that i i would be okay with that basically you invest you invest, build something, brand it,
Speaker2:
and then find a good couple and be like, you guys manage the day-to-day.
Speaker1:
And then we would just go when we could. Think about John and Jackie. They own Colette, the brand. They do that kind of similar. They have people that run each club, and they kind of pop in and out depending on what's going on. I'm not opposed to that. But, i i'm not never say never i would say is my answer to that yeah and then i think you know while we're on the subject of opening a club or something like that i think what a lot of people don't realize is how difficult that actually is um you know because of the stigma that surrounds the lifestyle um a lot of communities don't want these type of establishments in their community yeah um and so opening a club is very difficult and often takes a lot of money resources legal battles and things like that yeah a lot of loopholes you got to jump through and we're in the deep south i mean honestly where we are located we need a swingers club there's not one we i think it would be beneficial i struggle with wanting to be that person who brings a swinger club to your city i'm i feel like people already think i'm this dirty whore who just wants to sleep with all the husbands and i don't i i i would be i wouldn't be opposed to maybe having one in a bigger city that was not where I live, like where we reside, that I don't really know people that much. So I wouldn't be opposed to that, maybe a few hours away. But realistically, to be involved in a club and it be like right around the corner, which would make it easy, it would need to be here in my hometown. And i just don't i don't you are more inclined to do that you've made the joke multiple times that my hometown needs a swingers club we have people that we know that are local have said the same thing i just don't want to be that girl that couple who spearheads it there's a there's a library for sale i was going to talk about that about a year ago and it would be perfect i mean it's a bit because you basically take all the bookshelves out now you have a big open yeah like the city or county or whoever was selling this pretty large library and that was kind of our joke and and honestly i think it's brilliant so don't steal our idea but um to have and call it the library so it's not like swing or society on the building, you know, kind of make it like an upscale kind of like dark lit, you know, bookcases and lounge chairs and like, you know, a smoking room and just like all the things you think of speakeasy kind of Bob. Yeah. Yeah. I think that would be super cool. And ever since we said that joking with another local couple who who's have expressed an interest in doing that. And it was really a joke, but it's really brilliant in my opinion. So I think if we were going to do something, it would probably be along those lines. okay all right so that's the question of would we do that so i think we're 50 50 i don't think we're looking to do that if an opportunity that we couldn't like pass up fell in our lap we might pull the trigger or age you know with age used to say that we're if we get sick of traveling yeah uh okay so then the second part is if we do open a club um what what's it gonna look like well we kind of just talked about that would it be different than maybe the typical typical club hmm we've seen a lot of clubs um i think i would just take a little bit from every club that we've been to i love the big shower in houston is that where that's at yeah in houston i love that giant shower i love a circle bed with me with glass all around it so you can watch um i love tempted how they have so many different rooms that's something that i would take i just think that we do have the benefit to being to going to all these clubs so just take a little from everything yeah i agree i do think for us i would probably lean a little bit more heavy and I would want like a stage with like the LED wall behind it. Like I would want like to be able to throw those more like ravey kind of parties. You know what I mean? I would want it kind of built for that. Yeah. Less old fashioned swinger club, which is the opposite of the library we just talked about. Now that we're sitting here like like actually talking i think you could combine it yeah i think you could have a stage and leds and do the rave thing and still have like a yeah um the setting be classy one thing i don't like about typical swinger clubs is that they're very old-fashioned you have to wear jeans nice dress pants nice shoes um a collared shirt for the guys and realistically like the modern younger version of swingers don't do that they don't wear colored shirts they don't wear jeans they don't wear nice shoes they want to wear their like rave outfits and have fun think about 20 something years year olds that's what they're wearing and that's what they you they want to be comfortable they don't want to be like it's to be stuffy so you want to know what like the younger swingers want to wear google any like edm concert or any any festival like you know edc all those outfits they want to wear basically bikini ish type outfits yeah yeah so and i so i think definitely that i think also not necessarily just appealing to swingers i think appealing to more of like ethical non-monogamy people that are maybe don't identify as a swinger but they are definitely into play parties and swapping and and doing all the things that make them a swinger but they don't call themselves a swinger also like if we did it in my hometown there's not a like a lot of establishments for um for lgbtq people in my area because it is in the deep south so i think a safe place for them to feel welcome even if they're not swingers but they just want a place to dance and have fun and you know just kind of enjoy the lifestyle i think something like that would be good i mean we're just we didn't have this conversation before um We got, I, we never you and I've never really talked about this but I definitely personally I see two clubs I see that I see the like ravey fun young club I also see like the old the library more traditional if we're going to build this here's what we do we build the rave club like upstairs yeah and then there's almost like a speakeasy downstairs yeah i like that right maybe you don't even know that's there yeah maybe that's the vip area you know something like that maybe yeah um but yeah i think well you kind of like when you go to like a bliss cruise there's something for everyone like the older people tend to hang out in the lounges and the like bars and those kind of things and the younger raver people are in the ballroom doing the dancing and all that so like if you could find a way to come up with a club where you can do all of those things in one place i think that's like the ideal situation and i do
Speaker2:
think you're right um i think part of the problem a lot of swingers clubs have it's just that stigma of being a swingers club and what the expectation of that means walking through the door so i do
Speaker1:
Thank you. lot of swingers clubs have it's just that stigma of being a swingers club and what the expectation of that means walking through the door so i do think that if you could brand it as more of a lgbtqi alternative lifestyle safe place or an alternative lifestyle club and then just have a playroom in the back and not necessarily stamp it with that label of this is a swingers club. I think you're more apt to draw a wider diversity of people. Which is what we want, you know, as swingers. I think a lot of people that are older and that have the money to be able to do these clubs are stuck in that traditional way of swinging. And so that's what they build and that's what they do because that's what they know and it's not necessarily bad it's just where they are in life and and how they are so you know we'll see you never say never yeah i definitely you know like you said pride nights and uh you know drag show brunches on sunday and you know those kind of leaning into those kind of things which are wildly popular um yeah you know events throughout the country. So I think bringing that into... But bringing that to the Deep South would definitely ruffle some feathers. And I don't know if I want to be the girl who does that. But if you want to invest, maybe you can reach out to us. Maybe we can make something happen. I know all the people in town are going to be like, that's her. That's her. I mean, at this point, does it really matter? No, and honestly, I want to also be to also be that so i have mixed emotions you know i want to be that person who stands up and like and fights for these people and including i'm included in that i am these people um i want to be that person i just don't want to be that person at the dollar general on sunday you know like when we don don't have eggs or at the baseball field. And so that's why I've always really struggled with bringing that close to home. And maybe that's something I have to work through. Maybe that's like a, you know, that's a counseling session in itself. And who's to say in 20 years, I might say, fuck, I mean, who cares? But right now in this stage of life, I have a teenager who's in high school and I'm just,'m not really at that point right now i can i can see that but uh yeah that's a good conversation i think i think we're open to the idea i do think if we were to open something we would probably make it a little less swinger club and maybe a little more lgbtqia ravey kind of friendly uh i think you know all the same there'd be theme nights there'd be you know a lot of the same kind of things um but i do think you know having it have more of a festively kind of you know ravey vibe on the weekends maybe having a separate you know space where you can just talk and mingle and kind of that speakeasy vibe i think would be would be interesting um i also like you know some places have like hot tubs and stuff like that i kind of wonder about that sometimes uh you know if having you know a place like that where people can kind of gather and you know soak in the hot tub or whatever um i haven't really we haven't seen that we've seen that you know that's like at secrets but you don't really see that at many clubs but you hear about like old trapeze atlanta used to have like a pool and a hot tub and things like that So I'd be curious if you know how you could combine that with a club or something like that, but lots of good ideas. Yeah. But yeah, that was a great question. I appreciate you answering or reaching out. It was not a relationship question, which is first we, we kind of thought that this would be kind of like ask us anything. And it kind of turned into more like ask us us about your relationship yeah no like answer your relationship questions which is fine you know we kind of want it to be what y'all want but it was kind of nice to have something new yeah so if you have a tuesday talk question and you want to call i think we're going to prioritize people that call in oh we are i think so because it just
Speaker2:
i like the you know you can hear people's questions and then we're not trying to like read it awkwardly yeah it's kind of hard a lot of them are long yeah i mean obviously you can email us or you can call us but if you do have a question i think if you call in it's going to kind of put it's going to bump you kind of the front of the front of the line so keep that in mind so if you do want to call that number is 972-302-7716 okay and if you don't want to call you can email us at the swing nation at gmail.com the swing nation at gmail.com all right i hope we answered your question uh we look forward to hearing some more and i think with that in a world a world full of apples.
