We squick Dylan out with talk of dragon sex. Dylan vindicates himself with a listener voicemail about post vasectomy emptiness, then discusses his gigantic balls. Once we establish that Shira is the Dummy of the title, we begin by discussing the difference between soft swap and full swap, same and separate rooms, and group sex. We discuss developing community, not rushing, and rules, how being drunk is a turn-off. You’re dating as a team.

In this episode of Pedestrian Polyamory, we talk about the recent media hype surrounding Newt Gingrich and open marriage. This episode is slightly more political and topical than usual, so we fully accept all of the hate-mail that will transpire as a result. That said! Before we get into the nitty gritty with Mr. Grinch, Gavin got a SONNET from a listener which we read in our new segment – HepKatz Sonnet Corner. Then.. big news about Gavin’s dating life!

The Swingset crew gets quickly sidetracked by business that rapidly consumes the show. Dylan wants to be a Dom, Shira is enjoying being submissive. Cooper assigns the listeners the quest for a high quality strap on dildo that can squirt.

We continue our “Swinging For Dummies” discussion by moving into how to talk to your partner about your interest in non-monogamy. We weigh the idea of non-monogamy being a “deal-breaker” for your relationship and the future. Also on topic is potential for jealousy, the importance of LOTS of communication, and the excellent resources Sex at Dawn and Opening Up. When all is said and done, it’s important to remember that you’re going to be okay TOGETHER.

We go back to basics in the first of our Swinging For Dummies episodes. But first, returning friend The Professor tells us about Ginger’s panty-less New Years Eve celebration. We talk about the moment when we realized we were non-monogamous and how we dealt with that paradigm shift, how it impacted our perception of ourselves, and where we take that. We talk about cheating and deception while trying to be monogamous. We discuss the impact of monogamy on bisexuality, the complexity of polyamory, and how to begin.

Shira and Gavin talk about breaking up.. don’t worry, not with each other. Not yet, anyways. Whether you’ve gone against Shira’s advice and broken some hearts, or if you have a broken heart and want to get over it, give this show a listen because Shira talks about what different types of poly break-ups look like and how to cope with them whether you’re a breaker upper, break uppee or an innocent bystander. Before getting into that incredibly uplifting topic, Shira and Gavin talk about how spending the holidays with the in-laws went after having recently come out of the closet and slutty, slutty poly folks.

Can the Katz’ make it through this episode without breaking up themselves? Listen and find out!
