In this fascinating, heartfelt, and passionate podcast, Lee is joined by Char, a men’s, women’s, and father’s rights activist from Arizona.

PS084 - Sacraments of Authenticity with Master Skip Chasey

Wed, 09 Mar 2016 00:15:14 GMT

Join Lee Harrington in this rich discussion with Master Skip Chasey as they travel through his spiritual journey from crappy zen student to expansive leather Christian and active leader in the MCC, and finally onto a path of radical happiness. Acknowledging the sacred and blasphemous possibly in every altered state and tyranny of technique, they talk sexual mysticism, repentance for personal growth, and leather as being another form vestment. On a path to integration, we do not blend roles, but instead see that we are can be all of our roles, as well as more than our roles, and that the world is more than black and white.

PS083 - Curiosity and the Human Landscape with Coral Mallow

Tue, 02 Feb 2016 23:29:05 GMT

Artist and educator Coral Mallow joins Lee for a dive into art, consent of the viewer, and the bridge that curiosity offers into a world of possibility. Just because someone explains life or sexual potential we cannot understand it until we try, and together they examine affects art, life, and how we can expand the human landscape with the power of ALSO.

PS082 - Thumbprints In Our Spirit

Thu, 21 Jan 2016 21:20:08 GMT

As our communities mourn the passing of various icons of culture, Lee takes a moment to reflect on the concept that certain people, memories and moments leave thumbprints upon the clay of our sense of self. Looking back on his life he notes some of those moments (from TLC to moments of trauma), but asks us each to reflect on our own experiences that shaped us. From those seeds, however, we get to choose where they grow, and consider that each of us get to craft our clay, no matter how many thumbprints are in it.

Thu, 07 Jan 2016 23:14:55 GMT

From the bathhouses of Chicago to the social media of today, join as Lee interviews Rick Storer, Executive Director of the Leather Archives and Museum.

PS077 - Roadside Stories and Communication

Mon, 02 Nov 2015 23:33:14 GMT

Just home from a tour that covered 11 states in 16 days, Lee takes us on a journey through small town America and big events alike. From race and black women’s body autonomy in Atlanta to BDSM and assault laws in Fargo, we dance through how language plays into sharing our truths with others. Let us look at our shared experiences, no matter our histories, building a shared humanity while learning some easy bondage techniques too.

Activist, sexual adventurer and lawyer Yandy joins us this week for an engaging discussion on how sociolinguistics ties into texting and cruising, alongside the ways sexual communities can truly care for their own in cases of sexual violence.

This week Lee Harrington is joined by Capt. Gordon of Primal Arts and Time Bomb Tattoos as they discuss the richness of where we can go if we work through those things that stand between us and love.

PS071 - Being “Seen” In Our Passions with Xochiquetzal

Mon, 27 Jul 2015 18:59:43 GMT

Join Lee Harrington in this rich discussion with sexuality and spirituality advocate, author and educator Xochiquetzal. They dive into race and appropriation in paganism and kink communities alike, sharing the idea that “race play” means something totally different as a Latina woman thinking of the Aztecs. From types of ways that people work to be “seen” in the world to the censure that we do to ourselves every day of our lives, Xochiquetzal and Lee examine how respect comes into play as explorers finding their ways in the world. While doing so, they acknowledge our energetic fatigue and ask each person to breathe deep and find a life beyond the shame gifted to us by our overculture.

***

Xochiquetzal is a High Priest/ess within the Treebridge Tradition, through Lyceum of the Wayfarer. They are an initiated Shaktist, an Umbandista, a Polytheist, and Catholic. They rarely have issues with navigating these strangely mixed worlds. Within their work mingling sex, spirit, kink, and magic they have found freedom and joy. They are also called to Service by teaching this freedom and joy to any who come to them as seekers.

PS070 - Music, Spirit and Coming from the Heart with SJ Tucker

Wed, 15 Jul 2015 00:19:22 GMT

Finally sharing “meat space” with an old friend, Lee Harrington sits down for a heartwarming and thoughtful interview with the beacon of love, SJ Tucker. They look at finding people on the same frequency, sharing the hard parts of our heart and dreaming bigger with those that inspire you. Sooj shares some of the power voices of the spirit music scene that will lift you up and sway your being, while together they dance through the idea that we can rise together as a world through collaboration rather than competition, while helping the world be big and bold and bright.

PS069 - Performing, Consent and Active Participation

Mon, 01 Jun 2015 20:41:46 GMT

Rope bondage is edge play, but so is being on a stage. Lee explores the differences between being professionally on stage, performing for our partners, performing for the dungeon and performing for ourselves in this week’s podcast. Are you playing as children do in your sexual self-discovery, having connection encounters, or doing the deep work of the soul? Let’s look at the differences between what we thought we consented to and how we consent in the moment, and how you too can be more of an active part of your own life.

PS068 - Fetish Fandom and Rope Gods with Murphy Blue

Wed, 20 May 2015 21:57:31 GMT

When we get down to a lot of kinky culture, it is as much of a “fan” obsession as Star Wars or Firefly is for various sci-fi nerds. Exploring with bondage educator, energy enthusiast and erotic adventurer Murphy Blue, we discuss surviving BDSM events with success, fiction that dreams the next inspirations, bondage that supports the bond, and his love for video games in the context of how a scene can unfold. Remembering that our partners are not “bondage rides” or “stunt mannequins,” explore with Lee and Murphy as they laugh and deeply reflect their way through geekiness and sexual desires alike.

PS067 - Walking Between Worlds with Michelle Belanger

Mon, 04 May 2015 19:04:15 GMT

Author, occult expert, psychic vampire, and television personality Michelle Belanger joins us to talk about subtle activism, the rabbit hole of gender issues, and her newest book “Conspiracy of Angels.” From sexism in publishing to energetic connections in personal relationships, she shares her approaches to communicating in the cultural “mother tongue” of the person she is communicating with. With her fiction work depicting action without obligatory romance based on her perceived gender, she also addresses the issue of romance that is more teeth and claw rather than bouquets of roses. Walking between the worlds of kinky player and television psychic, intersex awareness and spiritual populations, vampirism and publishing, Michelle helps us all look at how we can each walk between worlds with grace and strength alike.

PS066 - Perspectives on Asian Sexuality with Dr. Martha Tara Lee

Wed, 22 Apr 2015 11:37:31 GMT

We are joined this week by Sexologist Dr. Martha Tara Lee from Singapore. Sharing her insights on Asian sexual exploration, Dr. Lee dives into American to Asian (and back again) culture shock around cultures of sexual accessibility and sex education before returning to social realities of living in communities where there is literally no word in Mandarin Chinese for clitoris or Hindi for masturbation. From “Asian Values” with a focus on families to privacy in large homes, social expectations to high percentage cases of vaginismus, Dr. Lee helps us look into realities of sexual culture as we past a Western eroticized myth of female sexual submission to see real people and the lives they live.

PS065 - Unpacking Our Heart and Our Whys

Tue, 07 Apr 2015 02:14:54 GMT

We each carry around a lot of “stuff” in our spirit, but in this podcast, Join Lee Harrington as we look at our physical “stuff” and its memories as well. What does that piece of rope mean to you? Why are you holding onto that letter? From run pins to supporting our essence, tribal memory to asking why we do a specific type of play, we’ll dive into a series of stories and reflections to help you do some story-examining and reflecting of your own.

PS064 - Bootblacking and Leather Spirit with Ruin

Mon, 30 Mar 2015 12:05:45 GMT

Beating at the heart of Leather communities is the bootblack, the caretaker of leather garments, and today’s guest would offer, Leather community spirit itself. Join us as we talk with International Community Bootblack 2012 Ruin about her journey into kink and leather communities, title holding, and embracing her love of boots themselves. She’s come a long way from the woman who did not know a gag from a butt plug (literally), and shares insights into self-value, personal passion, speaking up for your truth, and that sometimes we might embrace or outgrow our labels.

PS063 - Conscious Monogamy and Polyamory

Mon, 16 Mar 2015 22:24:50 GMT

The relationships we choose are each unique, but how do we navigate what we are looking for? Exploring social, sexual and emotional monogamy, join Lee as he taps into how we each communicate our needs. We work from the exponential mathematics of multiple relationships to the definitions of what sex is, different lenses on intimacy to fixing the toasters of our connections. Let’s explore the choices each of us make not only to have fairness in relationships of choice, but how to have everyone win and get their needs met.

PS062 - Leather, Poly and Aboriginal Sexuality with Dylan Richards

Mon, 02 Mar 2015 17:40:59 GMT

Joining Lee Harrington from Edmonton, Alberta, Dylan Richards brings a uniquely beautiful spiritual and activist blend to the podcast. Speaking as a Leatherman, a polyamorous pervert, and sexuality advocate, Dylan shares his experiences as an HIV outreach worker to Canadian aboriginal populations. From perspectives on Jesus’ capacity for close connections to two-spirit journeys, sweat lodges to leather culture, we examine the diversity of tribal approaches that slowly move from being illegal into being allowed into the light.

PS061 - Sex, Race, and God with David Wraith

Tue, 17 Feb 2015 03:27:15 GMT

When gender, orientation, race and religion cross paths, the intersections create ever deeper needs for cultural sensitivity and conversation. Join Lee as he discusses these topics with sexuality educator, activist, slut and filmmaker David Wraith. His journeys as a kinky black Christian open up a doorway beyond the Church of Ayn Rand and into a deeper awareness of the pain culture sets us up for. From Pope Francis to sex nerds, body acceptance to the black lives matter movement, Wraith’s calm and pointed perspective leaves us all with deep food for thought.

PS060 - Kinky Choices, Drinking, and Drugs

Tue, 03 Feb 2015 01:57:11 GMT

Drinking, drugs, leather, BDSM and sex. All of them involve altered states of consciousness… but are the combinations a good idea in play or kink culture? Join Lee as he looks at drinking at events, choosing to do drugs before getting freaky, and points to consider along the way. In sharing his personal stories and processing, ideas will be shared on consent, how to navigate the choices you make, examining what is behind those personal decisions, and how some events are affecting how we play and connect by putting out bars for easy access.

PS058 - Authenticity, Community and More Shibari You Can Use

Tue, 20 Jan 2015 02:35:00 GMT

With the upcoming launch of his new book, More Shibari You Can Use, Lee Harrington reflects on publishing processes, but more importantly, why he was drawn to rope. From rope community to what communities give us in general, he looks at the notion of emotional complex ecosystems and how we each deserve to be fully integrated beings. He leaks a discount code (see the show notes), and helps us all look at who we are as authentic sexual and kinky beings.

PS057 - Embracing Our Potential and “Bigness” with Namaste Moore

Mon, 29 Dec 2014 12:29:05 GMT

Coming into the New Year, Lee connects with the amazing Namaste Moore for words of love, inspiration, power and authenticity. Discussing the power of crystal “yoni eggs” and her new book on the topic, Namaste shares her family history, and the vitality that can be found in embracing a feminine path. The notion that strength can be found in softness, and that in choosing the path that is right for us, we can embrace the “bigness” we have inside us – personally, professionally, erotically, and beyond.

Having been asked about making a decision around vasectomies, Lee journeys into the choices available to men to actively participate in birth control and safer sex practices. In this podcast we examine choosing the right condom for you, up and coming technologies, making decisions about our bodies, and notions that these questions are not just for men, but for all of us.

PS051 - Music, Play, Privilege and Cultural Appropriation

Mon, 06 Oct 2014 17:55:29 GMT

Having just gotten back from a whirlwind trip of the American south, Lee reflects on scenes and music, and how they touch upon our hearts. The trip also took him to the WWII Museum, which spurs discussion of the fetishization of Asian cultures in the BDSM community. We look into white privilege in a kink context combined with playing with what might seem “hot” when we don’t understand its cultural context. Let’s root our erotic journeys into authenticity by bringing consciousness to our play.

PS050 - Sex Shame, Sex Work, Sex Pride with Tina Horn

Tue, 16 Sep 2014 01:13:35 GMT

In this passionate interview with sexuality activist, writer and educator Tina Horn, we dive into the issues of sexual exploration. Discussing the history and vision behind her podcast “Why Are People Into That?!,” we explore the notion of sexual shame and privilege from a personal and political framework. From there the notion of the whorearchy (the hierarchy of sex work) is explored, alongside the recent sex worker resource shut-downs and why it should matter to everyone. Come learn from this amazing being who once sold a dildo to Beyonce. Really.

PS049 - Sapiosexuals in the Hot Tub

Mon, 01 Sep 2014 10:41:11 GMT

In a first-time podcast from the hot tub, Lee’s guests are Rev. Deborah Addington (author of Fantasy Made Flesh and Hand in the Bush) and Judge D. Surface explore god, fuck, religion and sexuality in style. Though the audio quality is not ideal, it is a tasty treat as we look at how “it is a rebellious act to identify your bliss and pursue it in a culture that says no you can’t have that.” Enjoy this discussion of diverse communities, personal creativity and of course, gratitude.

Join Lee Harrington as he explores spicy sexuality by explaining the sandwich method of trying out new play, reflects on individual journeys in the community, and has fun spreading it on a bit sexy.

PS046 - Body Modification Sacred and Profane

Mon, 21 Jul 2014 21:54:32 GMT

Whether you have had your ears pierced, cut your hair, or had a facial tattoo, we have all modified our bodies in some way (or had them modified for us). In this week’s podcast, Lee Harrington takes us on a journey through intent, culture, choice and spirit as we look into why we do body modification and the power behind it. From body piercings to hair styles, genital modifications to brandings, breast implants to goth makeup, let’s examine how we approach these issues as sacred acts and markings as well as that which we do for the most profane of reasons.

PS043 - Exploring Choices, Enjoying Community, Embracing Consent

Mon, 19 May 2014 20:38:30 GMT

Will you create your own erotic world, or go see the erotic world? This is the start of the discussion as Lee takes us on a journey through kink exploring worldwide and the debates about which communities we dive into and support. Between the notion of the “Enthusiastic Yes” and putting your passion where your ethics are, let’s look at desire and crossed boundaries alike, fun stories and hard questions, and finding our own place along the adventure.

PS041 - BDSM Roulette 2

Tue, 04 Mar 2014 14:26:35 GMT

Last March Lee was struck by the randomness on the internet, and used the experience as an opportunity to springboard between a varieties of topics. A year later BDSM Roulette is back with such subjects as “outing” of other people, anal play, leather contests and the difference between being “serious” and “solemn” in our sexuality. However, the absurdity of the internet also explodes in the form of “Sexy Platypus,” and of course, lemon whores. Join us as we explore human erotica through a roll of the dice and dive into subjects ranging from thoughtful to full of laughter (and sometimes both).

PS040 - Gender Journeys and Pleasure Rights

Tue, 04 Mar 2014 14:12:47 GMT

This week, Lee Harrington (@passionandsoul) presents - Sharing what we want during sex can be challenging, but having bodies that are different than our identities can add an extra layer of challenge. In this podcast we look at the language and experience of transgender sex, and how to get more of what we want from sex. From exploring our bodies as if they were new to sitting with what to do if life hiccups come in the way, Lee takes us on a walk through his own struggles and provides conversations for everyone to consider, no matter your gender journey. Because we all deserve pleasure.

PS039 - Bondage, Vulnerability and Crowdfunding

Sat, 08 Feb 2014 17:00:00 GMT

Amidst out fears, scenes and huge projects, each of us has an opportunity for mindfulness and gratitude. Lee takes us on a journey through his fundraising project for “More Shibari You Can Use: Passionate Rope Bondage and Intimate Connection” and the full-color revised edition of “Shibari You Can Use: Japanese Rope Bondage and Erotic Macramé.” Along the way he talks about how each of us deserves the rope and play we want, that connecting with our partners is awesome, that there is amazing blessings in vulnerability, and that all of this can be both scary and fun at once.

PS038 - Clothing and Fetish Wear

Mon, 16 Dec 2013 17:00:00 GMT

Whether it is something silky and secret we are wearing underneath it all, or something shiny we are strutting for the world to see, clothing is a powerful tool for erotic exploration. After discussing roleplaying and exhibitionism, surrender and empowerment, Lee dives into the topic of fetish wear and sexy clothes for men. Having clothes (or their removal) serve a role in our sex lives is something that everyone should have a chance to enjoy. Get dressed up, get dressed down, and dress for desire!

Mon, 18 Nov 2013 17:00:00 GMT

Ever have erotic or personal connections that leave you drained? People you engage with that wire you up, or leave you feeling icky? Let’s look into energetic compatibility, resonance, compatibility, and consensual psychic vampirism. Lee Harrington takes us on a journey through the question of what to be aware of when connecting on an energetic level with others – in scenes, in sex, and in life at large.

PS036 - Food Play, Splosh, and Being Present

Tue, 22 Oct 2013 16:00:00 GMT

It’s the time of year where pumpkin pies start to come out and folks stuff themselves with food – so let’s talk about food, food play, and the wide variety of ways it compares to our sexual journey as a whole. We will remember our favorite foods (and kisses), discuss wet and messy play, explore blindfolded feeding and even get to consider food as BDSM. Let’s play with food, be present with one another, examine our memories, and find other truths about ourselves using food as a metaphor as well.

PS035 - Community Memory and a Thin Veil

Mon, 16 Sep 2013 16:00:00 GMT

Though Halloween is a month and a half away, Lee just decorated for the season. It’s time to pause this time of year to reflect on the history of the kink community through the lens of those who have passed away, and our community history. From AIDS to accidents to time that has elapsed, we remember those who have gone before, clearing the way for folks to dress up in sexy dominatrix costumes during this holiday season. With sweet and sad stories alike, he dares you to take up the challenge of not forgetting where the current kink communities came from.

Mon, 19 Aug 2013 16:00:00 GMT

Which turns you on more - sensuously appointed bedrooms or debaucherous public dungeons? Lee Harrington explores the wide variety of places people enjoy sexual play, from private to public, and looking at what works for you. From the great outdoors to hideaway love hotels, swingers clubs to private rooms built in your home, let’s explore where works best for you.

PS033 - Kinky Camping Success

Mon, 17 Jun 2013 16:00:00 GMT

It’s summertime! Having done kinky camping events for well over a decade, a bit obsessively so, Lee takes you through his packing lists, proposals, concepts and ideas on how to make your kinky camping as successful as possible. Is licking bug spray a good idea? Do people really bring inflatable hot tubs when they camp? What can you do in the woods that you can’t do in the dungeon? What do I wear? Sharing stories along the way, we journey from backyard BBQs to outdoor fetish festivals, and remind each other to stay hydrated.

PS032 - Rope Community Hub and Beyond

Mon, 20 May 2013 16:00:00 GMT

With Shibaricon the week this podcast goes/went live, Lee takes some time to reflect how far the event has gone since its debut in 2004. 10 events later, it has become the hub of a rope bondage community that did not exist before its inception, speaking volumes about how if just one person has a dream, and takes actions towards it, it can change so many lives. From memories and funny stories to connection and play, Lee dances with rope on his lips and lays out a few bits to chew on along the way.

Mon, 15 Apr 2013 16:00:00 GMT

PS030 - BDSM Roulette

Mon, 25 Mar 2013 16:00:00 GMT

Welcome to the edge of random known as the internet. After being randomly struck recently on his trip down internet lane, Lee takes you on a journey into the internet through four searches: “BDSM,” “Rope Bondage,” “Italian Salad Dressing Fetish,” and “Frog Porn.” Along the way he discusses bondage passion and safety, modern art installations, transgender issues, kink 101, zip ties, and more. Let’s take a romp, and see where the tubes lead us!

PS029 - Authentic Submission, Service and Self

Mon, 18 Feb 2013 17:00:00 GMT

Axe (from the ever-kinky MasoCast) joins Lee to dive into his journey through submission that started off leading him by his orgasms, and helped him find his inner desires and interests along the way. That’s not to say the orgasms are a thing of the past… at all. He shares his struggle with explaining power exchange to folks outside of kink, trying to find compatible people to connect with, and fear around losing a dominant partner because of love. By the end of the episode, Axe even shares tips for men pursuing female dominants that he learned the hard way. Let’s look at how service to others can lead to finding a sense of self, and how a nice guy from a small town found himself amongst the maze of want-ads and bathtub cleaning scenes.

PS028 - Path of Rhythm

Mon, 21 Jan 2013 17:00:00 GMT

Canes, paddles, floggers, and bare hands beating out a pattern on the flesh. Lee takes us on a journey into the heartbeat of the earth through desire, passion and connection, and then winds his way into how music ties us into our kink. Preparing for the Sacred Kink Initiatory Intensive in February, he reflects on rhythm scenes, and how when we do impact play, we leave an impact on the lives we live. All music from this sensual and percussive episode is brought to you by the amazing S.J. Tucker.

PS027 - Behavior, Identity and Romance

Mon, 17 Dec 2012 17:00:00 GMT

This month, Lee looks into the words we use to label ourselves, as well as our desires, and compares them to the things we do. Heterosexual men who have sex with men. Polyamorous perverts who date only one person. Along the way he discusses how romancing men as a woman was different than romancing women or men as a man has been different, discusses gay and queer culture, and even sneaks in a personals add. Let’s look at our authentic desires, see where they match with our behaviors, and weigh out whether we are being true to ourselves.

PS024 - Shifting In Our Open Hearts

Mon, 17 Sep 2012 16:00:00 GMT

Through a great week reconnecting with a partner, Lee reflects on the fact that polyamory isn’t always easy. Our desires shift, our realities shift, and behavior does not always match identity. From sexy stories to encouragement to construct your own ideal relationship, this episode encourages you to look inward, look outward, and embrace your dreams… even through the muck and the mire.

PS023 - Earned Leather, Gifted Leather, Leather Identity

Mon, 20 Aug 2012 16:00:00 GMT

Half of the leather community seems to be wanting to “earn” their leathers, and the other half does not feel qualified to “gift” leathers. Scotty Thomson and Katie Fulcrum join Lee Harrington in this passionate discussion about what leather means, leather identity, and getting turned on amidst a culture of tribal customs. Along the way the council of elders votes on a few issues, laughter is shared, and hearts are poured out for the world.

PS017 - Thou Art Divine

Mon, 19 Mar 2012 16:00:00 GMT

In this month’s podcast, Lee is deeply touched by an essay by Foxfetch in a new anthology, and shares his reflections on transsexual deities. Along the way he opens up to the world his journey through gender, from queer to bi-gendered to transgendered to transsexual… to perfection and back to gender identity challenges. Join Lee as he reflects on divinity, creation myths, the shapes of universal power, and gives you a glimpse into how he processes it all- through tears, poetry and passion.

PS012 - Giving Thanks

Mon, 21 Nov 2011 17:00:00 GMT

This month, Lee Harrington spends some time giving thanks- to his tribe and more, and asks in turn what you are giving thanks to in your sexual and spiritual journeys, and beyond. Thanks becomes an awareness of capacity, stories of identity, and how our identity is often wrapped up in what we think we "should" want. Perception becomes thanks once more, and a bit of sacred sensual poetry is thrown in for good measure!Lee, however, wishes to apologize for getting *totally* ahead of himself. In the podcast he references that when the podcast goes live it will be just after thanksgiving and it will also be on his birthday. He realized a few hours after recording that this is not the case, and that there is an extra week between... so happy Thanks Giving everyone :)
