🎧 Welcome back to The Unmasked Project!
This week, Layla and Brian throw off the last of their filters for the realest episode yet. No guests. No script. Just two co-hosts at a crossroads, confronting their creative and personal tensions head-on.
They break down the behind-the-scenes struggles of running a sex-positive show in a platform-hostile algorithm, the burnout from doing it all themselves, and the existential question: is The Masked Swingers still serving their lives—or stalling them?
From Layla’s passion for addiction recovery to Brian’s drive for purpose over clout, they explore what it means to evolve publicly, vulnerably, and messily. They don’t have all the answers, but they’ve got the courage to ask the hard questions.
Whether you've been here from the first masked mic check or just stumbled into this unfiltered spiral, you're getting the truth.
💥 In this episode:
Why the podcast’s original mission no longer fits
Sex content vs. searchability: fighting the algorithm
Brian's pivot toward coaching & high-impact work
Layla’s secret side hustle helping addicts—for free
The real reason they're burned out (spoiler: it’s not each other)
Why viral clips don’t convert to real listeners
Can this show still evolve, or is it time to part ways?

This week, Layla sits down with Naat—a fan-turned-social-media-slaya—for a brutally honest deep dive into her very first (and very dramatic) polycule.
What starts with a locked door at a lifestyle party ends in heartbreak, healing, and a hot mess of jealousy, boundaries, and group chat tension. Naat spills everything: the friend-group-turned-polycule, watching her boyfriend hook up across the room, and the moment she realized… maybe poly just isn’t her vibe.

This week, we’re lifting the veil on one of the most tantalizing rites of passage in the lifestyle: your first curated play party. And we didn’t just talk about it—we brought in a couple who lived it.
Meet Ray & Andy: longtime listeners who won tickets to The Play and walked in wide-eyed… only to become the stars of the night. From mirror spanking scenes that stopped the room to blindfolded sensory experiences, energetic makeouts, and even some accidental hypnosis—it’s the kind of wild ride you only get when it’s your first time.
It’s raw, it’s curious, and it’s a little chaotic—in the best way. We talk about what makes a curated event hit different, how expectations line up with reality, and why chocolate representation still matters in these spaces.
If you’ve ever wondered what really happens at these parties—or if you're planning your first—consider this your unofficial survival guide.

How a podcast and a Google search sparked a play party origin story
Their spicy meet-cute at a pool party (and a crowd-stopping spanking scene)

Layla’s got a new man—and he’s checking boxes she swore she’d never touch. A 32-year-old vanilla, new to non-monogamous relationships, with zero prior partners... and she’s in love.
This episode dives deep into the wild emotional ride of dating your first boyfriend while married, what happens when a pansexual, demisexual, poly powerhouse falls for someone outside the lifestyle, and whether she’s love-bombing or just riding the new relationship energy high.
Brian and Layla explore radical honesty, evolving intimate connections, and how to support someone learning the ropes of a poly lifestyle for the first time. It’s s*xy, real, sometimes messy—and full of insights for anyone navigating open relationships, emotional growth, or that sweet spot where s*x positivity meets vulnerability.

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.
