🎧 Welcome back to The Unmasked Project!

Second date, and we're bringing back a banger! We brought a masked OBGYN into the playroom. Dr. Arianna joins us to answer all your burning questions about BV, UTIs, birth control, vaginal hygiene, and the mysterious condition known as PMDD. From what your discharge actually means to whether boric acid is your best friend or a quick fix fail, we’re getting clinical without killing the vibe.

This isn’t your high school health class. We’re talking real talk about vagina smells at parties, post-play infections, and why some women feel like they’re losing their damn minds once a month. Plus: Do pregnancy salads work? Is it okay to birth on all fours? What’s the deal with Lotus births? Reddit brought the chaos—and Dr. Arianna brought the facts.

Ep. 78 - She Found Out She Was on the No-Fly List… Here’s What Happened

Welcome back to The Unmasked Project!

In this tell-all episode, we rip the mask off one of the lifestyle’s most whispered-about topics: the No-Fly List. Who gets put on it, why they’re there, and how it feels when you find out you made the cut. From unspoken boundaries to repeated STI scares, we’re digging deep into what keeps people “off limits” in open relationships and Lifestyle circles.

It’s raw, it’s real, and sometimes… it’s personal. We swap stories of awkward “not with you” moments, playing politics in play parties, and the awkward truth about why some people just can’t get past your partner’s rules. Plus, the surprising ways being single changes how couples treat you—and why some flirtations never make it past the DMs.

If you’ve ever asked yourself, “Am I being respectful… or am I about to get grounded from the hot list?”—this one’s for you.

💥 In this episode:

- What a “No-Fly List” really means in the lifestyle

- The fine line between safety, jealousy & politics

- How STI patterns can land you on the list (and keep you there)

- Why being single changes the party dynamic

- The real reason some couples won’t play with you

- Respect, boundaries & calling out repeat offenders

🎧 If you’re navigating ethical non-monogamy, Lifestyle etiquette, or just want to avoid the “banned” list, grab your drink and buckle up—this one flies close to the sun.

The Unmasked Project
Ep 76 Pt 2 - He Used ChatGPT to Break Up With Me?! | Poly Breakups

Welcome back to The Unmasked Project!

In this no-holds-barred episode, Layla reads a ChatGPT-generated breakup text that stirs up serious questions about communication, ghosting, and emotional responsibility in polyamory. The relationship started fast—but ended faster, with guilt trips, AI scripts, and passive-aggressive silence.

We dive into the messy emotional terrain of non-monogamy, sex parties, and swinger dynamics in a community that's evolving—sometimes for the worse. Are the parties getting younger and riskier? Are people using poly to avoid deeper issues? And what happens when emotional intelligence goes out the window?

If you’ve ever asked yourself, “Am I really poly, or do I just like falling in love?”—this one’s for you. Whether you're deep in the poly lifestyle or just curious about the swinger scene, this conversation hits hard with raw truth and real laughs.

💥 In this episode:

  • The AI breakup text that ended it all

  • Emotional boundaries in open relationships

  • Ghosting, guilt, and poly dating etiquette

  • STI awareness & why vetting matters more than ever

  • Are you actually poly—or just addicted to NRE?

  • When the lifestyle starts to feel... unsafe

🎧 If you’re exploring ethical non-monogamy, sex positivity, or navigating a poly breakup, this one pulls no punches.

We’re bold, we’re raw, and we’re still your favorite unmasked truth-tellers.

The Unmasked Project
How a Broke Girl Built a Sex Empire | Stephanie Megan Gets Unmasked

This episode of The Masked Swingers is a women empowerment deep dive with a twist! We sit down with Stephanie Megan, host of Broke Girl Therapy, to talk about her life transformation—from broke and heartbroken in LA to podcast queen, cut queen, and non-monogamy advocate.

From dating in LA and exploring open relationships, to navigating voyeur kinks, sexual exploration, and redefining love outside the rules—this is modern love done Stephanie-style: loud, honest, and hilariously messy.

We get into it all: kink culture, cuckquean fantasies, dating app disasters, and the hot mess magic of healing through hookups. If you're into relationship advice, dating tips, or just want to laugh at some wild stories (hi, meth Adderall), you’re in for a treat.

We Took Off the Masks… and Revealed a Secret Baby?! 👀

This week on The Masked Swingers… the face reveal is just the beginning.

We finally unmask for real—and what comes next? A jaw-dropping confession about helping a couple start a family in a very unexpected way. This isn’t just another relationship podcast clip. It’s the kind of wild tale you can’t make up.

Brian shares how a casual Facebook message turned into a life-changing DNA surprise, the emotional therapy sessions that followed, and what it means to have a biological child you’ve never met. We talk donor siblings, modern parenting, queer families, and the kind of identity questions that hit deep.

Oh—and don’t miss our viral-ready rants on group chats, California traffic, and ungrateful motorcyclists. This one’s got it all.

The Unmasking Begins – No Going Back Now (Part 1)

This week on The Masked Swingers… the masks start coming off.

In Part 1 of our two-part unmasking, we dive into the why behind staying anonymous—and why we’re finally ready to stop. We talk parenting while poly, facing family fallout, what it means to live authentically, and how wearing a literal mask sometimes just made us smaller. It’s vulnerable, hilarious, occasionally sweaty—and just the beginning.
