Graydancer's Ropecast

It all started at an L.A. GRUE in 2011, when Gray gave a class on fellatio. Not on how to give it, but rather on how to be a better recipient of it! Here are some of the highlights from that class, along with some added commentary.

It's been a while, but there were little things like a big rope event and the fall of Western Civilization happening.

• Gray tells a little bit of the behind-the-scenes experience of equipment at ROPECRAFT.
• Then he addresses the first bit of an ongoing practice of talking about being safer as an alt-sex enthusiast in a potentially dangerous society.
• Finally he talks about the interesting ways other subcultures view the consent practices in Kink.

Gray talks about how having a cape (or some other form of The Reveal) can both spice up your scenes and even enrich your relationships. He also talks about the upcoming "Ropewalker's Roundtable", hosted by Diamond Blue, which was just added to the Ropecraft class list.

He also shocks the world by announcing the End of the Ropecast! This podcast will be called "Graydancer's Ropecast" from now on, as we continue to cover subjects beyond (but not excluding!) rope bondage.

Several listeners on Twitter asked questions, and Gray does his best to answer! He talks about BDSM teaching, online resources, burnout, his favorite non-kink influences, and what he likes to "nerd out" about in regards to Sex Ed!

Graydancer starts the podcast with some lessons learned at Summer Camp working on the Incident Response Team. He then goes BACK IN TIME to Ropelab where Murphy Blue shares his Five Uncomfortable Truths for Riggers.

Then it's off to Summer Camp on the porch of Oink where Darren Infinity talks about how countering toxic & fragile masculinity can make your rope sexier and fun-ner (that's Canadianese for "more fun").

Fresh from the Boston GRUE, Gray and Lee Alluretalk about how hypnosis and rope have great possibilities when used responsibly. This was recorded in Lee's backyard, so apologies for the ambient noise - call it "location enrichment"!
