      <title>Episode 57 Sweet Salt</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>⛓ Episode 57 with SweetSalt ⛓ ⚠️ TRIGGER WARNING ⚠️ - Join Leia as she chats with Sweet Salt about all things edge play. We discuss bl00d play, rainbow play, and scat play. Fair warning, if you’re skittish or squeamish, this episode may not be for you. But it’s sure to be educational, so tune in if you want to learn something.</p><p>SweetSalt is a queer, polyamorous switch who has a deep love and passion for connection, spirituality, and intimacy. She has been practicing kink for 18 years and has developed a particular devotion for the practice of more taboo fetishes and interests.</p><p>Although she shares her heart with others, she is honored to present as slave to Master Malik and is walking the path of Mastery.</p><p>SweetSalt is active in the DFW community and has been sharing her knowledge for several years. She firmly believes in the power of self-expression, acceptance, and liberation in kink and encourages everyone to be true to themselves both in and out of the dungeon. She feels that when we explore the deepest chasms of our hearts and minds we can achieve a greater connection to ourselves and those around us.</p><p>As a kinky person SweetSalt practices SM under the PRICK risk profile. She believes in personal responsibility and accountability both in and out of the dungeon. As a Leatherwoman she walks to the beat of her own drum and strives to live as authentically as possible.</p><p><a href="https://www.patreon.com/submergelife">https://www.patreon.com/submergelife</a></p><p><a href="https://submerge-merch-shop.creator-spring.com/">https://submerge-merch-shop.creator-spring.com</a></p><p><a href="http://instagram.com/sub.mergelife">instagram.com/sub.mergelife</a></p><p>*ALL INTERVIEWS ARE FROM CONSENTING ADULTS SHARING CONSENSUAL EXPERIENCES FROM THEIR LIFE.

Listen for all the info you need to know about the contest and follow the links below for more!</p><p>Princess Asshole (she/they) and Kris (any pronouns) hail from Austin, Texas. They were immediately bonded by their love of heavy blood play and Leather origins. PA identifies as a switch, though she is honored to be Kris' submissive. Kris identifies as a Dom and Daddy to PA. Both coming into the relationship as tops made the power exchange dynamic super spicy, but at the end of the day they both love the dynamic they have created.</p><p>Kris came up in the Leather bar scene nearly 20 years ago and brings a different perspective of community engagement and risk aware play. You'll see Kris and PA play a lot with blood and sharps but Kris also loves heavy impact (especially canes), pegging and fisting!</p><p>PA is just your run-of-the-mill asshole trying to do weird stuff to people and have a lot of laughs in the process. She is a creative by trade and tends to bring that creativity to her own brand of sadism or really just dig her own hole under Kris' needles. She's also honored to have been Rocky Mountain Person of Leather from 2019-2021.</p><p>They both have a passion for effective communication, neurodivergent inclusive education, and making space for the more taboo sides of kink.

She's also honored to have been Rocky Mountain Person of Leather from 2019-2021.</p><p>They both have a passion for effective communication, neurodivergent inclusive education, and making space for the more taboo sides of kink. Kris highly values kindess while PA has a love of service, and together you get two people who want to make sure you have the best experience possible.</p><p><a href="http://heartlandpol.com/">http://heartlandpol.com/</a></p><p><a href="https://gwnnbash.com/">https://gwnnbash.com/</a></p><p><a href="https://www.beyondpiercing.com/">https://www.beyondpiercing.com/</a></p><p><a href="https://fetlife.com/users/16435550">Bat City Leather </a></p><p>For an exclusive video of todays show, and other shows, head over to our Patreon Page to support submerge and receive bonus content!</p><p><a href="https://www.patreon.com/submergelife">https://www.patreon.com/submergelife</a></p><p><a href="https://submerge-merch-shop.creator-spring.com/">https://submerge-merch-shop.creator-spring.com</a></p><p><a href="http://instagram.com/sub.mergelife">instagram.com/sub.mergelife</a></p><p> </p><p>*ALL INTERVIEWS ARE FROM CONSENTING ADULTS SHARING CONSENSUAL EXPERIENCES FROM THEIR LIFE.

They lead and teach locally in their kink group called L.O.T.U.S., an acronym for Lagniappe Of Teaching and Understanding Sadomasochism. Trix produces the annual event, Vision. (Visionlotus.org) They have taught courses at several events, including Beyond Vanilla, Vision and their local munches and bar nights. They have been a volunteer at PACE (pride event), Trans Advocates in Louisiana, and various other pride groups. They have a special place in their heart for vanilla education, LGBTQ acceptance, and BIPOC inclusivity. Trix has many goals revolving around kink-centric education. They want to abolish the mindset that having leather clothing is what defines you as Leather. Leather is a soul deep trait with strong values and an even stronger sense of community and family. Trix wishes to infuse traditional Leather values and kink safety in the newer generations, as well as continue the education of themselves, previous Leather generations and kink communities of all types.

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Join Leia in the Den of The Danes as she sits down with Daemon Danes to discuss his journey into poly life, his first experiences with kink, and how his 24/7 M/s household is run.</p><p>Daemon Danes is an alternative lifestyle enthusiast, knowledge worker, and somewhat of an icon or anti-hero to many in the Fetish community. He is the proud patriarch of a 24/7, M/s poly family known as the “Danes”, who share colorfully about their lives online, and in his podcast series. Often controversial but never boring, Daemon is seen as an unapologetically extreme practitioner and outspoken personality to most.</p><p>Daemon's approach to BDSM praxis comes from 20+ years of experience, time spent with other spiritual and sexual communities, his formal education in psychology, and a dedicated history of study with nontraditional teachers around the world. He believes alternative relationship structures and play modalities provide an expansive context for creating peak experiences which deepen self-awareness and growth for those with an impulse to explore them.</p><p>Daemon lives in Las Vegas, Nevada with his poly family, and evangelizes his core values of intimacy, consciousness, creativity, and devotion through writing and multimedia.</p><p>Book referenced in this episode: The Selfish Gene</p><p><a href="https://www.patreon.com/submergelife">https://www.patreon.com/submergelife</a></p><p><a href="https://submerge-merch-shop.creator-spring.com/">https://submerge-merch-shop.creator-spring.com</a></p><p><a href="https://instagram.com/sub.mergelife">instagram.com/sub.mergelife</a></p><p>*ALL INTERVIEWS ARE FROM CONSENTING ADULTS SHARING CONSENSUAL EXPERIENCES FROM THEIR LIFE.

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Leia sits down with Master Kupcake, founder of New Orleans Girls of Leather.

In February, 2021, she was honored by receiving her Masters cover. Kupkake is service driven and thoroughly enjoys mentoring and teaching others. She’s been involved and been an educator in an array of alternative lifestyle and spiritual organizations where she finds fulfillment in body ritual and modification with a special place in her heart for flesh hooks. She has led and served in many groups over the years and is currently founder and President of the New Orleans girls of Leather and a few other groups and organizations along the gulf coast.</p><p>Books: - Where the Crawdads Sing By Delia Owens, The Red Tent by Anita Diamant, Sadism by L.T.

      <title>Episode 27- The Russian and Flying Anvil</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Join us this week for not ONE but TWO amazing guests on subMERGE! Leia, The Russian and Flying Anvil chat all about Polyamory and how it works for them, others, and how many different ways polyamory can be structured and work for people!</p><p>Flying Anvil has been in the kink scene for over 17 years, he's a kinkster, a maker, a voyeur, and a professional napper! </p><p>From Flying Anvil:</p><p>I like building and tinkering with classic cars and hotrods. I grew up building hot rods with my family. Rebuilding my dad's 39 Chevy coupe as a kid with him was my first love. Currently I'm building a 1962 Chevy Truck her name is Sugar. I also have a 65 Chevelle drag car that I've sold my soul to obtain.<br />I also love the old school art that goes with them ie. PINUPS! (Bonus points if you love hotrods and pinup style as much as I do!) , pinstriping, bomber art, and antiques.

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Please welcome your NEW MR ROUTE 66 LEATHER @Sir_Athens357 ! We talk all about his journey into running for title and his experience this past weekend in Oklahoma City for the Route 66 Leather competition. Special shout outs to all the producers, judges, contestants, handlers and the KC Community for the time, love and support!</p><p>(He/Him) Athens is a Queer leatherman who leads a poly Master\slave house hold that focuses on personal growth, exploration, and service. Being born and raised in Kansas city, Athens is passionate about BBQ, Chiefs football, and midwestern hospitality. Athens has been apart of the community at large since 2015 and has found a passion for engaging in his local community, both as a teacher and an erotic instigator. Giving people permission to explore their most deviant sexual desire by coining the term, “Why the F*** Not” and flagging orange left. Often seen in the Dungeon telling dad jokes, goofing off, and being highly energetic, only to be balanced by his sadistic smile and devilishly sinful play. Athens has served his local community and the community at large by serving on boards such as the Kansas City Pride Parade, Consent Kansas City Facilitator, and acting as a leather liaison with the Kansas City Ballroom Community. Athens is also a founding member of the Kansas City Bloodline Leather Family where he served for six years on their Leadership council. Also a member of local groups such as Alternative Humans Sexuality (AHS), Consent Kansas City, Kansas City Ballroom, and Titans of the Midwest.  Athens regularly presents workshops on a wide range of topics that center around edge play and practical application. He is most often sought out to teach workshops on Fire play, unique deprivation, and edge play. Often mixing his classes with hands-on experience, stories, and dad jokes, he leaves his students with a very unique experience that is both engaging and fun.

      <title>Episode 14-Lee Harrington</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Welcome Lee Harrington to subMERGE as he sits down with Leia to discuss everything from educating kinksters, to gender and role fluidity in dynamics, to ideas for better inclusivity within the community. </p><p>Lee Harrington (he/him) is an internationally known spiritual and erotic authenticity educator, gender explorer, eclectic artist, and award-winning author and editor on erotic and sacred experience. He’s been traveling the globe,  teaching and talking about sexuality, psychology, faith, desire, and more, and brings a combination of playful engagement and thoughtful academic dialogue to a broad audience.

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Buckle up for Rancid B!#@h Bella as Leia learns all about her childhood as an African American raised in Mississippi, living with albinism and her journey into kink all the way to Kansas City.

Formally trained in movement for the stage, Bella has found kink play and body conditioning to be the perfect balance between performance and self expression. The human form is such an amazing instrument and Bella believes that self expression in kink should be available to all body types. Bella has bonded with her partner Shoshin over their pursuit of collaborative partnership and finding the play in play. She likes to describe her dynamic as "summa". Summa this; summa that! Why not take a little bit of everything you like and make it something all your own? Bella finds herself drawn toward activities that leave room for creativity and artistic expression.  </p><p>Shout outs in todays episode: Shoshin, M-L-E, PandaSlag, lilbunnyfluff, therussian, _newbian_rogue_, _sadistica_, Handfull, Okienawa, and Knechtschaftwerks (on Patreon)</p><p>Book: In Cold Blood-Truman Capote</p><p>Subscribe to our Patreon for video exclusive content from today's show</p><p>www.patreon.com/submergelife</p><p>Check out our Merchandise Shop!</p><p>https://submerge-merch-shop.creator-spring.com</p><p>*ALL INTERVIEWS ARE FROM CONSENTING ADULTS SHARING CONSENSUAL EXPERIENCES FROM THEIR LIFE.

      <title>Episode 7-TapeTop</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Join Leia as she sits down with kinkster and toy creator TapeTop. We discuss his journey into BDSM, making flogger and fun toys for kinksters and how to meet people within the community. 
TapeTop has devoted much of his adult life to facilitating social and educational opportunities for BDSM lifestylers in the Kansas City area. He was instrumental in the founding and promotion of both AHS and Consent Kansas City, the two largest social/educational groups serving the local community. Now retired from all leadership positions, TapeTop putters around in his basement crafting world-class floggers and unique adult toys under the Fountain City Flogworks banner. He identifies as a Service Top who recently learned that he's not at all opposed to Daddy Dom play and MtF transgender submissives. Find him on Fet at TapeTop

      <itunes:subtitle>Join Leia as she sits down with kinkster and toy creator TapeTop. We discuss his journey into BDSM, making flogger and fun toys for kinksters and how to meet people within the community. 
TapeTop has devoted much of his adult life to facilitating social and educational opportunities for BDSM lifestylers in the Kansas City area. He was instrumental in the founding and promotion of both AHS and Consent Kansas City, the two largest social/educational groups serving the local community. Now retired from all leadership positions, TapeTop putters around in his basement crafting world-class floggers and unique adult toys under the Fountain City Flogworks banner. He identifies as a Service Top who recently learned that he&apos;s not at all opposed to Daddy Dom play and MtF transgender submissives. Find him on Fet at TapeTop

      <title>Episode 6-Ragnar Northman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Join Leia as she sits down with Ragnar Northman to talk about edge play, polyamory and his journey into BDSM. We talk about resources and knowledge of being Risk Aware before entering into advanced edge play with partners. 
From Ragnar Himself: “I’m a sadist. I’m an artist. I’m a lover. I’m a bad man. I’m a daddy. I’m an avid lover of biology and nature, a newbie, a perpetual student and a great cook. I laugh really big with my whole belly. I'm usually more goofy than serious. I'm riddled with anxiety. I'm a listener. Ask me anything. Or hell, let's pull up chairs, share a cigar and you tell me a story. I'm a leader. I'm caring. I'm compassionate. I'm a very sick mother***er in the bedroom. Most of all, I'm me. I'll tell the truth even when it hurts, because little lies turn into big lies. If it's not fun, we are probably not gonna do it twice. Don't crush the butterfly. This is an ethos I live by. Let other people live their best lives, and never hinder them.”
You can find Ragnar Northman and all his debauchery on Fet.

      <title>Episode 5-Sir Athens</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Join host Leia Leone as she talks fireplay with Leatherman Sir Athens in the Lion’s Den. They chat about the history of leather, learning lessons in fireplay, and his strong polyamorous relationships.
(He/Him) Athens is a Queer leatherman who leads a poly Master\slave house hold that focuses on personal growth, exploration, and service. Being born and raised in Kansas city, Athens is passionate about BBQ, Chiefs football, and midwestern hospitality. Athens has been apart of the community at large since 2015 and has found a passion for engaging in his local community, both as a teacher and an erotic instigator. Giving people permission to explore their most deviant sexual desire by coining the term, “Why the F*** Not” and flagging orange left. Often seen in the Dungeon telling dad jokes, goofing off, and being highly energetic, only to be balanced by his sadistic smile and devilishly sinful play. Athens has served his local community and the community at large by serving on boards such as the Kansas City Pride Parade, Consent Kansas City Facilitator, and acting as a leather liaison with the Kansas City Ballroom Community. Athens is also a founding member of the Kansas City Bloodline Leather Family where he served for six years on their Leadership council. Being a member of local groups such as Alternative Humans Sexuality (AHS), Consent Kansas City, Kansas City Ballroom, and Titans of the Midwest.  Athens regularly presents workshops on a wide range of topics that center around edge play and practical application. He is most often sought out to teach workshops on Fire play, unique deprivation, and edge play. Often mixing his classes with hands-on experience, stories, and dad jokes, he leaves his students with a very unique experience that is both engaging and fun. Find him on Fet at Sir_Athens357

      <itunes:summary>Join Leia as she sits down with Rope Artist, BoundToNothing. We discuss rope artistry,  being new to the kink scene, and the importance of consent in all aspects of life.
As a rope artist BoundToNothing focuses on the aesthetic aspects of rope more than the conventional BDSM and kink aspect of Shibari. His beginnings started outside of kink but through his journey he has spent time learning and participating in the world of kink. He takes joy in being a gateway to those that are kink and non kink minded to expand the views of rope and the energetic and aesthetic possibilities of being “Bound”. You can find him in Instagram @BoundToNothing and on Fet at bound2nothing.

You can find him in Instagram @BoundToNothing and on Fet at bound2nothing.

      <description><![CDATA[Join Leia as she sits down with TheRussian to chat about her BDSM journey the last 5 years, identification of Primal life and leadership in the community. 
As a Russian/Armenian immigrant, she moved to the US at a young age, but maintains deep roots in her heritage.
