You're listening to Swinging Down Under, a podcast about the swinging, non-monogamous lifestyle from two crazy Australians with over four years of lifestyle antics to keep you entertained, informed, angry, happy and horny. Join our international swinging adventures. And welcome.
I c crazy female australian sheila and believer of all things love balance and sexy times and this is d i'll be doing my best to keep the dad jokes to a minimum which is probably going to be highly unlikely along with that i'll keep c and check where i can did i mention i'm a pilot we'll be podcast hosts for today, so sit back and enjoy the sweet, sweet melodies. G'day guys and welcome to episode 89 of Swinging Down to the Podcast. This is Kate. Daryl is absent.
He'll probably want me to tell you that it's the Stardate 101 episode of our podcast today, but as I said, he's not here to argue with me, so let's just go ahead and get straight into what today's podcast is all about. Today's episode is a little bit different. So if this is your first time joining us, thanks for tuning in today. We normally don't take to the road. We normally discuss things in our studio at home. But on this episode, I actually was in XBiz Miami. Now XBiz is actually an adult industry expo event and it's held in a hotel in Miami.
I was down there doing some other business, and so I took the opportunity to head to this event and really understand what the adult industry is all about, you know, and try to get some interviews on the ground. So throughout the episode today, you're going to hear a number of different interviews with people. Now, I've done my best to deal with the fact that there was wind. It was a hot Miami day. We were right on the water and there's wind happening and things like that. So I've done a lot of noise reduction work on today's podcast.
I'm going to chop and change throughout various audio clips. But if you do hear some of that background noise, there's also partying, there's DJs, there's people talking and having a good time. So today's a little bit different. So normally if you are used to tuning in to Swinging Down Under, you'll probably realize that we do a lot of talking. Sometimes we interview our friends, sometimes we do Skype interviews. But generally speaking, we're not out on the streets, you know, podcast in hand, recording stuff out there, you know, in the greater public.
People don't really like to let us outside the house. So today's episode, a bit of a short one, but that's what it is. It's all about those interviews in Miami. Miami now while I was at XBiz in Miami though I also had the opportunity to talk to Brett from Young Swingers Week I spoke to Goddess Brendan who was representing Pineapple Support and you'll learn about who they are and then I also spoke to a couple of cam models Angelique Sage and Feliday as well so you'll hear those interviews coming up in today's episode so thank you you so much for tuning in again.
Before we get into that though, just I wanted to mention that we have been talking a lot about this Podcasterpalooza event on social media. So if you do follow us, you'll know that we're actually heading to Miami again in May 2020 from the 15th to the 18th and we're actually attending Podcasterpalooza.
What that's about, it's about 10 different podcasters and sex positive coaches and people coming together in the community to host an exclusive hotel buyout so it's three nights four days 100 rooms hotel buyout for podcaster palooza if you're interested in that event you can go on to the swingingdownunder.com website to find out more about it i have an event section there and that's where you can go and find out really what the hell Podcasterpalooza is about. But that's in May 2020. Plenty of time to go and check that out and join us for that.
I'd also like to mention that we do have two new Patreon members. So I really want to give a big shout out to Alan and Olivia. Thank you so much for joining us on Patreon. We really appreciate your support. It is almost time for us to hit the road again. So this episode is going to come out a little bit earlier than our usual schedule. And that's because in seven days, I'm on my way to Texas. Daryl will be joining me a couple of days after, but I'm heading there a little bit earlier. So I'm heading over to meet Jay and Angie from Average Swingers.
We're going to be heading to Dallas and then we're heading down to Austin to do BBB in Austin. And that's Average Swingers. And we're also meeting a bunch of friends down there now strangely enough i'm meeting up with horrid souls again of course podcasting uh friends from canada they're actually heading down to to austin as well so you may see some episodes coming out about uh about that but we're heading to bbb and uh and then 15 days from today also is naughty in new orleans so we're going to be on the road lot. So we wanted to make sure that we're getting episodes out.
And then obviously we'll come back to normal episode time back when we hit back in Singapore again. So we're away for about three weeks on the road actually. So if anybody out there has a washing machine that they would like to let me use, please let me know. I need a washing machine in Dallas, Austin and then again in New Orleans. So hit me up.
I'm the washing machine right enough about enough about washing machines enough about travel let's get into today's episode as I said before a bit of a short and sweet one some audio interference but some great content some great interviews and I really want to just appreciate and say thank you again to Goddess Brennan from Pineapple Support to Brett from Young Swingers Week to Angelic Sage and also feliday they're cam models that i met at xbiz miami and they took the time to actually talk to me a little bit about what they do you know their craft what's it all about as well now in my interview with young swingers week you'll see uh you're here actually that there are a lot of different people mentioned i've done my best to update the show notes today we mentioned sex uninterrupted we mentioned torrid souls we mentioned sex because we mentioned stc media there's a lot of different people mentioned i've done my best to update the show notes today we mentioned sex uninterrupted we mentioned torrid souls we mentioned sex because we mentioned stc media there's a lot of people mentioned in today's episode but otherwise thank you again for listening to today's episode of swinging down and i appreciate the hell out of you guys drop us an email drop us a note on twitter or instagram we're absolutely around and we can't wait to share our upcoming travels with you if you follow us on social media so keep an eye out for that but Otherwise, thank you so much and have a fantastic month of July.
We'll be back soon. Hey, guys. This is Kate from XBs, Miami. I just spent the last one and a half hours to check to get registered for the event. It is a pool party and meet and greet time by the pool, by the water. Check out my Twitter page. I just actually posted up a photo of the area out the back here. There's about 1,000 people here, so it did take a ridiculously long time to check in, but I'm keen to kind of meet some cam models. A lot of guys are represented here for Chatter Bay, their stream mate. It's huge.
I just unpacked the goodie bag too, and probably the biggest goodie bag I've ever seen. There's about four different sex toys in there, so that's quite handy. And so I might actually give them away. I might run them as a swinging down under competition. So yeah, standing by the water here, I'm going to go get myself a drink. See if anyone wants to talk to me and share their story. So hang on, bye, and I will be back, hopefully, with an interview guest. Hi, everyone. This is Kate again from X-Biz Miami. I'm here with Goddess Brendon and I will be back, hopefully, with an interview guest.
All right, hey, everyone. This is Kate again from X-Biz Miami. I'm here with Goddess Brendan, and I just ran into pineapple support, and I'm so excited to be here because I follow you guys on social media. I've retweeted you. I love what you're doing. You're super inspirational, and I really just want to tell everybody out there in sex-positive land what you guys are doing for the community and what it's about.
Tell first of all we really appreciate your support all of it goes so far any kind of retweeting any kind of feedback that we get we absolutely appreciate 100 percent um pineapple support is an organization that is put together to literally provide mental health support for people that are sex workers or work in the sex industry in some sort of fashion whether that be you want to do immediate texting in order to speak to someone a listener is what we like to refer to ourselves if you're having a tough time to actually needing to seek more professional support pineapple is there to help facilitate that and get you from one place to another depending on what your needs may be so you guys help people live so if you've got like a cam model that's out there and you know he or she may be having some difficulties you know they might be getting some abuse in the channel yes ma'am they can contact you guys and absolutely day or night it's 24 hours a day support absolutely there's almost always a listener available we are actually always looking for new people that are willing to take the very short brief training course to become listeners themselves because the more people there are the more accessible we are and we that no one can support sex workers better than other sex workers so you know if you're listening to this right now i highly recommend and suggest you please consider taking the training course um it's very brief it's online it's straightforward and consider becoming a sex worker or a listener yourself to help other sex workers in the industry.
That's how we keep it going. It's all voluntary-based, but in order to provide 24-hour service for someone that might be struggling, like you said, a cam model, a clip producer, you never know. Things happen all the time. We want to be there to help those that need us.
And so if people out there are listening and they're really interested in just helping helping people out can they if even if they're not in the industry can they sign up and be a listener as well to somebody to support or do you are you really looking for those people in the adult industry you know that's a really good question and something that I will actually bring up and ask with our founder because I have heard other people outside of the industry show interest in this currently right now I know all of our our listeners are industry um people but i i can't actually speak on the fact on how we are open to that um outside world presence um that's a great question and i would absolutely love to follow up with you on that let's do that i'll send you guys an email absolutely because i know a lot of the people out there that listen to our podcast you know they're very sex positive people they want to help they're the community is is absolutely giant so you know i again i love what you guys are doing you're there to support and you know mental health in any capacity is extraordinarily important but the fact that you guys are specializing in this helping these people that are they're living their lives they're working the day-to-day stuff where maybe they can't get that support from it's so true from the local community you know you're specializing in i can speak on it specifically is the fact that um a lot of times when you're in this industry it's often hard to like reach out to people who are not um when i first began in this industry i struggled with some mental health issues of my own and before pineapple support was even a thing i had to reach out into the regular as we call it vanilla world and and seek help and and at the time it was so often i come from unfortunately a long line of suicide uh people that deal dealt with a drug addiction things like that so instead of in my opinion focusing on things that to me were pretty clear red flags that might be issues as to why i was dealing with depression now it was often related back then maybe my problems were stemming from my work maybe my problems were related to my sex work that i do which obviously is pretty much complete fucking nonsense so it's really nice to have a system within the system that you work in that right away that stigma doesn't exist because we are all in it together we're all there's nothing and the medical professionals that we work with the therapists that we deal with they are completely aware they are completely sex positive they are completely like industry positive so it just takes away that first part because no matter what when you sit down to speak to someone on a therapy level on a professional level somehow some way when you're digging into personal things your jobs things like that are going to come up and that should not at all be the focus of you getting the help that you need.
So in my opinion, this is just absolutely essential because it is absolutely providing an outlet that so many people a few years ago would have never gotten help, would have never received the care that they needed because they would not have wanted to go and seek help out in a regular everyday vanilla world. And it's so true.
So there are counselors are fantastic and and we're big advocates here on swinging down under for for mental health but one of the the hardest things is that when you are having this niche you know ethical non-monogamy or sex worker you're in the adult industry the first few sessions often are just actually for explanation of what it is that you do right yeah yeah and and yeah. And I think that obviously what you guys are doing would just cut that away. So rather than wasting two or three hours of sessions to say, this is what I'm about, you know, because that other vanilla person has no idea.
You guys are just getting to the core of this. Getting right to it. It's irrelevant. And, you know, the thing is, too, is that you said you spend a bit of time getting to know these things, and it's really counterproductive when we're focusing on the wrong things. And something that I realize often from speaking to other people in the industry is so many people will lie. How is this productive to get to where you need to be if you're already right out the gate, you're not being forthcoming. And that is unfair to you as a patient. It is unfair to you. So that should be eliminated right away.
You should not have to be ashamed of who you are in order to get the help that you deserve or that you need and so i i do believe that pineapple completely eliminates that stigma and they're there with open arms you know ready to help ready to be there for for anyone that needs it i love how passionate you and i've got us right goddess brandon yes tell us where people can contact you i'm gonna put your uh your details in our show notes oh thank you if people want to reach out if they want to be listener, if people want to reach out, if they want help, how can they get ahold of pineapple support?
Absolutely. Well, first of all, if you want to follow pineapple support, I recommend that you follow them on Twitter. It's at pineapple Y S W. Um, if you would like to go and visit the website, maybe consider becoming a listener yourself, or maybe explore options.
If you're in needing to talk to someone, whatever the case may be, that would be pineappleupport.com if you'd like to reach out to me i have my own radio show i always love to listen and talk to new people in the industry you can follow me at goddessbrandon on twitter and you can catch my radio show tea with b on sundays 2 to 4 p.m eastern standard time and that is actually immediately following the pineapple support sunday show which is absolutely awesome from noon to 2 p.m eastern standard time as well we would love love your support you to listen you to reach out and you to join our community perfect i love it and again if you're out there and even if you can't be a listener and you're not in the industry follow these guys on social media retweet them because you never know where your reach is going to go and who you can actually help.
I really appreciate you taking the time out of your day. I just saw your banner, and I thought I'm going to come by. Thank you so much. Oh, thank you. Thank you, Swinging Down Under. We're honored to be on your show and to spread the pineapple love. Thank you so much. Thank you. Nice to meet you, Kate. All right, everybody, I'm here at X-Biz Miami. It's my first time in Florida, and I'm actually hanging out with Brett from Young Swingers Week and DJ Serino here in beautiful Miami. Welcome, welcome. Thank you so much for joining. This is great. Hey, thank you for coming down to see us. I know.
You guys are Florida locals, right? Yes. That's all right. So the heat, we've just discussed, not too bad. They're used to going to Jamaica, so they're used to the heat. How is it different here, though? The heat is different from Jamaica?
No, it's pretty much pretty much the same pretty much the same all right do you guys get a lot of people complaining about the heat when they come to jamaica if they're from like canada canada yeah we have a lot of canadians there a lot although canadians it's great because they got to get out their winters are too long that's true yeah we're actually i was just in vegas with some canadians actually so i was there with uh torrid Torrid Souls and Sex Uninterrupted podcast. And it was actually cold there, so they weren't complaining too much.
But, yeah, for sure, I think the humidity kind of gets people, right? We love Sex Uninterrupted. Yeah, they're great. So shout out to those guys. They were just at our last, they were at our March event. They did a great job. I don't know. They did a bunch of interviews. So if you haven't heard their interviews yet, you can hear them. They're super cool. Yeah, absolutely.
Do check check that out i'll link to them on the podcast as well so thanks for catching up guys so young swingers week you guys have been going for for years you do full buyouts you're the only organization event planners that do full buyouts at uh at young swings that's that's a pretty big accomplishment right well that was the one we just had in march was the first full takeover by a single group in six years and their first couples only takeover in their 36 year history Thank you.
had in March was the first full takeover by a single group in six years and their first couples only takeover in their 36 year history. That's crazy. So you obviously put your balls to the wall there. Were you freaked out a little bit when you booked that? No. Were you really super confident? I was super confident because we had sold out so early the year before and we only had another like 20, 30 rooms to sell.
So we did sell out early that's awesome and so you guys how often do you actually get across to jamaica at the moment with young students week well we do it three times a year so now it's march july and october and you're djing at all of them yeah all right tell me how that's like in terms of the crowd that get there the music you kind of play do you feel people out do you have an idea when you get there do you know what going to play, or do you just kind of see what the crowd wants to do? I have an idea of what I'm going to play.
I usually just stick to the top 40, hip-hop, dance music, some reggae, you know. Nice, I was going to ask you that. I'm a big reggae girl. I mix it up. Big EDM night, though. We have a lot of EDM lovers at the event. Yeah, but everybody there is just, like, high energy, like, the whole time. Yeah. Except in the morning, you know, everybody's like, uh.
That's true like that's true that's true do you feel the pressure though that you kind of got to get the crowd going as a dj and keep that energy level up yep right okay right on now you guys are doing something different next year right you're changing it up a little bit 2020 is a little bit different for you so you've got an event coming up in october right july and october how are those going before we talk about next year? They're going great. We're going to put together a spectacular amount of entertainment in July. There are still some rooms available, and the schedule is packed.
The resort should have the schedule approved and back to me this week.
So our schedule hasn't even been presented yet tons of action on you can already see a bunch of the information of what's going to be happening but the full schedule will be out hopefully next week that's awesome and so you guys take over your own entertainment your own performers or you get the like you take people over obviously yourself that you get local people as well well yes that's the big difference between going with an event versus just going on a random week to hedonism because when you go on a random week yes they have great entertainers i'm gonna tell you they are fantastic the food's fantastic it's all you can drink all inclusive so you can go there with five dollars in your pocket and leave with five dollars in your pocket it's it's an amazing time and that's where there's no red velvet rope area this is the great equalizer event because typically you have the people who can have bottle service in the corner and then you have the rest of us.
But you know what? This is everybody is bottle service level at this event. So there's no difference. You can walk up and order top shelf Long Island iced teas all day if you can drink them. You can use Patrona's mouthwash. All right. Okay. I want to actually hear from somebody out there. If you go to Young Swingers week, I want to know if you're using Patrona's mouthwash and I want to know the hour by hour effects of that. So please hit us up if you do that. Absolutely. That'd be baller if somebody did that. The food is excellent. They have food all the time, but here's the cool thing.
With us, we bring in a whole nother level of entertainment because we bring in extra entertainers we bring in sponsors we have hosts and we bring a lot of extra swag so you know just the little things from the hat the sunglasses that we always give out to get the group going to the stuff the other brands bring to the event but then with the extra entertainment we have extra dancers singers djs we put on lighting and music we're the only people that have done seven days of outdoor parties there usually they put you in the disco our group's too big to fit in the disco now so now we've opened it up we did all seven parties outside first time ever happened well that's a good point though so how many people how many people go at your events how many there?
Well, it's 560 people were at our March event. Right. And I saw photos from the glow party and you guys had fire twirlers and everything else. I mean, that, that's a lot of heat. That's a lot of responsibility. Again, kind of keeping that energy up in, in the crowd. So how, how are your entertainers, you know, do they, do they get out there in the crowd?
They're trying to build that energy and keep it up and, you know, handing out shots absolutely well that's another thing we get shot girls i've always said why you only get shot girls when you're in vegas in miami and you have to pay five dollars a shot how about if we have shot girls that are free yeah that's that's absolutely i think the the biggest i know i just came from a trip in vegas right i was just there last week so i'd never experienced this whole vip bottle service i'd never experienced that before right so i love the fact that you're saying everybody's the same i mean we always talk about when people get nude when people kind of let their freak flag fly we're all on the same level you know it doesn't matter your socio-economical background none of that shit matters you're just there to have a really good time so i love that analogy of the bottle service people and the people in the corner and I've literally ordered a couple of bottles just to spray it on people yeah don't even drink it to spray it on champagne bottles yeah we have some fun there like that because you can do that it didn't cost him anything guess what he walked up and goes i need a bottle of champagne then sprayed it on the crowd but that's that's the whole difference in life people go well it costs a little bit more but by the time you go to a place like a vegas and you pay for all of your shows all of the drivers all the hotel expenses the food okay where this is there's food all the time available they have good food yeah i mean we have lobster night on friday night all you can eat lobster tails and with sushi there there's a nice italian restaurant you can go in order food in a nice sit down atmosphere we have uh another great restaurant that it's it's a hibachi grill so it's all the asian so it's it's a nice selection there's tons of entertainment there's three swimming pools like a lot of resorts have one swimming pool we have three so we can separate different things out during the day and a beach and a beach that's an amazing option that water there sparkling clear free scuba diving yeah if you have a permit i'm a scuba diver so i saw that and i'm definitely i'm keen to to get out there i've been scuba diving around the world but i haven't been to jamaica naked snor Yeah, naked snorkeling.
So if you're not a scuba diver, you can snorkel free. You can take out the kayaks for free. There's Hobie Cats. So there's paddle boards, and the water is just beautiful. No, I love that. I love the fact that there's entertainment on and off-site.
The fact that you can, over seven days, you want to have a bit of a half a day of downtime, get out and do some paddle boarding you know you've got that option i think that's great especially for people who they get a bit chomping at the bit kind of you know partying every day and they just want to have a bit of a relaxation and it's free everywhere else you got to pay for an excursion you know how much pressure that takes off that you don't have to pay for you just show up at 10 30 in the morning you go snorkeling yeah no that's fucking awesome takes all the pressure off it's just fun you guys are doing some some new uh and really out of the box thinking for 2020 right talk about that like what what are you doing differently why are you doing it differently and and really like what do people need to know about some of these events okay well first of all this all starts back in july of last year so it will be july october and march we have a new partner that we're going to be working with charlie and arian from sex because a lot of people are probably familiar with them they have uh if you go on sdc.com you'll see hundreds of videos by them on every topic they're they're well versed in a lot of different things from bDSM to kink to sexual dysfunction and just marital problems.
All the kinds of things that make it a good basis for doing seminars at the events and being good educators. Yeah, for sure. Just everybody out there, too. I'll put the link in the show notes here. But they also have a book out, Fifty Shades. You know, definitely check it out.
You know, as Brett just said, SDC Media has over 100 videos of these guys uh they're based out of houston texas so go and check them out uh they're gonna leave a lot of youtube a lot of information out there so yeah if you're keen on learning anything about that they're also doctors so yeah definitely go and check them out but tell us about 2020 brett okay make it as weight man well here we're well i'm i became good friends with them over that period of time we talk on the phone almost daily and we realized there's a need beyond just young swingers the reason young swingers work so well and sold out in six years and was the first sellout in six years is because we put together the right people that that when people match that there's two lines in the sand one that you're young and one that you're a swinger if i give you those two things i could give you hot dogs a stick and a boom box and you'd still have a great party that the people connect they all talk about similar things they grew up on the same things they have similar experiences that's what makes it work so we want to do that for new markets they want to do it for the kink market they They just wrote a book, 50 Shades of Kink.
And we're basing it on that. We own weekofkink.com. And that event is going to be going in place of our normal October event. We're changing to that. So we want to give the kind of community, and that would be like the 50 Shades of Grey level type atmosphere, to give people an idea of how that works. They'll be doing seminars and they'll help get people acquainted with it for people that are really interested in that. And the second thing we're doing is adding week of chakras. The week of chakras will be the same week as week of kink.
And the week of chakras will be for people that are into things like Kama Sutra, Tantric, sexual energy transfer, their chakras, yoga. And then we're going to have a third group called arm candy, which will be like if you're if you think your significant other is very hot, and they're your arm candy, then that's the week for you.
The great thing with this is we're allowing you to experience all three groups, no matter which group you're in, we're putting all three of those groups in the same same week so now people who are into chakras could also take some kink classes and the people who have arm candy can experience both kink and they can experience the yoga or Kama Sutra or any of the other things that they want to experience so it's not gonna be like Groundhog Day you're gonna meet new people and we're gonna cross markets that go well going to meet people you should have never met, but you're going to be the best relationships of your life.
It's actually, I think, one of the things that we always come across when we talk to people in non-monogamy is that there's such a diverse range of people out there, and one of the things that they get when going to an event is talking to people that maybe have experience or different kinks in certain things that they didn't know about, and at the end of the day, they may not take them on board and they may not bring that into the bedroom, but they learn about them, they might try them out, and, you know, they're kind of the better for it. But tell me about the music, right?
You just spoke about three kind of different types of people, right? You told me kinks, so I was thinking like some deep, like stinky beats down there, you know, some really... And then you've got the chakra team, and, you know, they might want...
How are you going you going to manage the dj set oh we are going to have a bollywood night on that right okay so tell me what kind of music that you're thinking about these kinds of these kinds of groups like are you going to again fill the crowd out or you kind of i usually just fill the crowd out but um for the the bdsm i'm thinking more like deep house more like grungy kind of you Not so much that you could you could dance to it you just vibe you just vibe out and yeah that's a good that's a good mission for you right try to match your beak to the spanking and stuff that's happening in the background exactly nice i love it and so all of those groups that you're uh can't advertising at the moment can people book that already or find out information on how they can well that will that will be coming out shortly you can visit hitoplanner.com for updates and the other events that we're going to be changing and adding are to july of 2020 it will be young swingers week but we're also adding young and ink and we'll be adding week of edm we have a lot of edm lovers in this community.
And those three groups will go very well together. Half the people in our group have tattoos. In addition to everyone being into EDM, it's a good natural match that allows people to come in who are curious, but not really swingers yet. But sometimes you need to open new markets.
Why is our niche the only niche that can work work there there's other niches that have been wanting to go i have friends who are telling me that they want to go to the event that they've watched me throw for six years now now that they heard i took the word swinger off of it yeah and it's not it's just because that's not what they are but for the people who are swingers young swingers week is the event to go to just because of the name and these niches are going to do that same thing yeah and that's i guess like you know everything you're talking about here is again that diversity right when we talk about non-monogamy ethical non-monogamy consensual whatever you want to call it right swingers whatever um again there's a huge diversity that exists in that crowd and sometimes people just want to go to a sexy atmosphere right they don't necessarily want to go and that's the thing about you know any of these resorts or events they're they're swinger friendly so people can go they can have a really sexy environment they don't need to you know have this swapping uh mentality so but pride week i love it you know because obviously they're a group there they they want to have places to go they want to be able to let their freak flag fly but sometimes there's just not the availability for that or they don't feel accepted in a lot of communities so the fact that you guys are putting that on and people can go there and just be who they are and now we know it's time that we can actually do this event and we can add by couples to the event and when you look at profiles now there's a lot more beer by curious and by guys yes that's what we train at our seminars is that absence of no is not yes right okay it's got to be clear and be clear and concise.
And as far as the necklaces, we have a green necklace, which means I'm new, I'm soft swap, or girl, girl. We have a red necklace, which means I am a full swap swinger, but situational, right people, right time, right place. Then we have a blue necklace that just says, I want as much action as possible while I'm here. Right. And literally they break about one third on each during the initial signup. Right. So you can actually change it, right? You can change your cords. You're unsure, but later midweek, you feel uncomfortable. You can maybe change it up.
50% of them, I would say, change their cords. Oh yeah? And then the beads. Yes, because we have a white bead. The white bead means that you have a hall pass. Okay. So we're a couple's only event, and people always say, well, can't you have singles? Well, you don't need singles if people have white beads. Right. They are singles. It's just better because then there's no arguments because if the wife kisses someone while the husband's asleep, it's okay because she had a white bead on, and people know that.
that well young swingers week.com and hitoplanner.com so hitoplanner.com lists all the new events i had discussed young swingers week in march will always be young swingers week in march it'll be a full takeover with only young swingers week the other events will now be mixed events which are going to be triple events and they're going to be groups that go well together and what we're going to do is we'll have colored wristbands you can pick two of the three groups that you say your primary in you can take one or two wristbands so that people know what you identify as i don't want to cliche that you take all three okay pick the two you like most okay yeah that makes sense that's cool and so the website, on the Young Swingers website, you can actually find Frequently Asked Questions.

All right, guys.
It is day two of XBiz Miami, and I'm currently recording here live from XBiz. I've had a number of interviews this morning. I've had Young Swingers Week. I've met with DJ Serino from Young Swingers Week. I have met with Pineapple Support. And now I'm going to go head around, and I'm going to try and get some interviews from some cam models.
I'm currently sitting here watching a five-way live stream cam model express so basically five different cam models have gotten together they've got five laptops out they are live streaming they're performing together the sex positivity and the collaborative emotions here that are happening at expo's miami is is amazing you know there is every kind of body shape size age diversity cultural background ethnicity it's just great to see so many people coming together talking about their craft sharing best practice sharing how they make their living what makes them inspired you know really how they do their different shows everything down to even technology-based stuff you know i've seen people talk about the different equipment that they're using so it's really great to be here and i look forward to getting some interviews from cam models i really want to meet with people that have specialty types that they do on their cam model experience.
If they have certain things that they do, that's a little bit different. How do people get niche marketing done? There's a lot of different promoters here, and it's just great to see everybody come together in this really sex-positive environment here in Miami, Florida. So it's my first time in Miami, and I'm super excited.
I'm going go and try to get some cam model uh interviews right now and see if i can get people talking about what they're passionate about how they make their living and you know what they like to do what's what's great what's not so great so um yeah i will be back and uh with some awesome cam model interviews thanks guys cheers hey everybody i'm back this is swinging down under i'm an ex-biz Miami and I'm here with Angelique. I just ran into her. She was about to start a webcam camming scenario and I harassed her and here she is. Thank you so much for joining me on today's podcast. Hi.
We are in beautiful Miami. It's hot today though, right? Oh my goodness, it is so hot. Your hair is intact though. I know, it's from pretty much like a whole bottle of hairspray. Oh, okay. Right on. Mine's in a ponytail because I just couldn't do it today. Yeah, I'm going to go in the pool again later. That's great. Now, thank you for joining me. So, I really just want to talk to you about being a cam model. So, tell me, you said you've been in it for a few years, right? Yeah, six years. Six years. I had my six-year cam anniversary online in April. Yeah. That's amazing.
So, you've probably seen a lot of changes happen in six years, like a lot more people getting into the industry. There's so much. yeah. People like come and it's like an amazing opportunity and community. I love it so much. I wouldn't change it any other way. It's like my one and only job. Really? Okay, so you're doing this exclusively. Exclusive, yep. And so coming to XBiz, first time at XBiz? It is. It is my first one. Okay. And what do you hope to get out of it?
Just like meeting and like talking to other like sex workers that are going through the same thing as me same questions where i can like interact and connect and just network i love it i love it i love the fact that people are helping each other here you know yeah you know although everybody could be seen as to be in competition i've seen so many women walking around men walking around helping each other just really expressing how they do things what's best practice how they get you know people followers yes looking at the end of the day that's what it matters i mean you want everybody else to succeed like you yeah it's not a competition it's like a community and we're just like all in this together and we just want to like all do good we like you know work hard and then make money and so tell me about that i mean people get into chem and they think I can just I can just turn up online and I can do an hour and I'll make I don't know a thousand bucks but okay there's so much more than that you can't do that okay those expectations like I've had girls come up to me and they ask me how much I make and I used to tell them because you know I didn't know better be i was trying to help but i told i told them i said now i don't tell what how much i make and i just say hey you're like a tv show you got to go on a certain time you got to have a schedule you're like you know live interaction unless you're selling clips or whatnot which you would be uploading you know a little often weekly or whatnot um but i mostly just can uh live stream every day from 9 p.m every day every day that's commitment yeah it's commitment it's hard i love it you've got you've got to also have a passion for this like if i'm having a shitty day i'll go online and tell them and they'll like boost me up and then like then we're gonna have like an awesome time my whole mood changes that's awesome okay so in terms of you know what you're doing online do you specialize in anything do you have like different themes that you do and how do you kind of create that kind of that so my best advice to anybody that would be wanting to start this is be yourself you can go on the like different websites look at other models what they do and then go with what you feel comfortable doing so i actually was a non-new model for my first two years i did not feel comfortable doing anything and after that i was like okay it's been two years i put a crazy ass goal which they cleared it and i like was like mind blown and i was like okay it's you know it's my two-year cam anniversary i'm just gonna go in my birthday suit which is naked and i never did it before and i was like so comfortable like it was just it was like second nature you know so i loved it ever since then and i went a little bit more frisky and pump shows and now i just kind of do it all so yeah so for the listeners out there that don't really understand that i mean um cam modeling you don't go it's not like you're going nude every time and just pumping yourself with a with a vibrator i mean there is so much dynamic to this you know there are people that just get on there and really i think you need to understand the psychology behind your followers right you know that you gotta understand what they want um and talk about followers so do you have followers that are you know coming online with you every day people that support you pretty frequently do you have that kind of that following yes and i also um they like put their my initials for angelic sage they put a s underscore and then they they change their name wow so their their username is kind of like your initials and it's awesome because it kind of promotes me too and it makes me feel super special that's great no that's that's amazing the fact that you've got people that come on and they're legitimately caring about you know your mood as you said what you're doing but think about it i'm on there every day i know that is that is a level of commitment now in terms of the rest of the stuff so not just the not just the everyday camming but like you're obviously on social media do you do snapchat i do snapchat what is the extracurriculars that you kind of do so i'm not a big big on twitter i need to learn my process with that but i love instagram because you just upload a picture and boom done hashtag that is awesome now tell me your favorite part about being cam model i love it you know what um i'm an artist so i incorporate that a lot now tell me a question we always like to ask what's your favorite sex position oh um okay i don't even know what this is called but i love when a man is like on top right but they they hold you from your hips yep lift you completely up so this is like a hard workout for the man but like the woman's just laying there and then he like pounds it but it feels so good I got every single time yeah we actually have a friend who's a fellow podcaster and he likes to get a pillow no I don't we call it a J but he gets a pillowcase and uses that as leverage as well no there's no pillows involved you gotta lift no.
There's no puzzle involved. You've got to lift that shit up if you want it. Oh, you've got to have the muscles to do it. I like it, I like it. Now, where can people reach you if they want to reach out to you on MyFreeCams? Yes, they can go on MyFreeCams, Angelique Sage. And my Instagram and Twitter is the same, so it's Angelique Sage with an underscore. Perfect. And I will put your links on my show notes today. I really appreciate you taking the time out of your day. I know you're about to go live.
So I really appreciate you taking the time out to talk to me about camming and about sex positivity. I love it. Thank you so much. You're an amazing person. I love you. Thank you so much, Angelique. All right, guys, this is Kate again with Swinging Down Under Podcast. I am back. I'm still at X-Biz Miami. I'm here for one more night. I'm here with Kayla, or as her screen name is, Feliday. So we're just running into each other in the lobby. You guys are wondering what the fuck's happening until 10pm, and I grabbed you for an interview. Thank you for joining me. Yeah, no problem.
You're from Canada, which is really exciting, because I've just spent a week in Vegas with some Canadians, actually. Oh, that's amazing. Four Canadians, so I feel like I'm feeling the Canada love, right? I love Canadians, and I love Canada. But we also love Australians. Oh, that's amazing. So I feel like I'm feeling the Canada love, right? I love Canadians and I love Canada, but we also love Australians. Oh, thank you. So this is your first time at XBiz, right? Yes, it is. And what did you, what did you come here for? Like why this event? What are you hoping to achieve here this week?
I honestly wanted to grow my platform and diversify a bit, work with other models and network. That's awesome. And have you guys, have you been trying to attend the seminars? Yeah, I've been trying to attend the seminars. There's one that I really want to attend, which is money management. And I think that would really help me because I'm bad at that. Oh, that's good. And also clips and passive income and stuff like that. That is so cool. And how long have you been camming for or clip making? I've been in the industry for six years now. Six years.
So every person I've spoken to today, I think the shortest length of time was three or four years. So I've met a lot of people here that have a wealth of information. It's great. Six years is great. Yeah, for sure. What made you start? Like what, what made you want to get into it? Um, honestly, I found that I could make money in nudes and I thought it was awesome.
And I'm like, I can that I enjoy and it's sort of like an art form for me so when I take my photos and I work my angles and I have my makeup and my outfits and my hair and my lighting and what's your favorite like what do you love to do out of all of it like or a scene or a particular theme like do you have something blowjobs you love blowjobs all right all right that's my specialty hey there's a lot of people out there that aren't hating on that right now right um what's the hardest part about what you do like what would you say is the most difficult um managing my time honestly because when you're on your phone all the time like i have carpal tunnel in my hands from being on my phone so much and it's knowing when to stop working because for me i chase the hustle and i work really hard yeah and it depends on the dick though honestly it depends on the dick yeah absolutely it does hashtag that hashtag it depends on the dick i love it i love it uh do you with your clients so the people that are your fans you know do you have long-term fans you have fans that coming back at time and time again absolutely that you're interacting with?
Tell me about that. I've had people that have been with me for five, six years. Five, six? Jesus, that's a long time. I have members on my Snapchat.
