Yes, we will talk about guns, but not just guns because humans weren’t meant to be one dimensional. The gun is merely a tool and we believe the person is the true weapon. We want to explore different ways to make this “weapon” better in mind, body and spirit. Experiment...everyday. Explicit New Swingers Podcast John & June We are new swingers merely documenting and discussing our swinger journey and talking about the experiences we're having and the lessons we're learning. Though we address most of the issues new swingers may encounter in the swinger lifestyle, we are not swinger lifestyle experts and are not responsible if what works for us may or may not work for you. We offer practical, relevant tips from our own experiences for curious (but perhaps nervous) beginner swingers so you can more comfortably explore the swinger lifestyle at your own pace, get your questions answered as best as possible, and discover new ways to make your sex life sizzle!*Disclaimer: John talks a lot and June is sexy as hell. We aren't for everybody. If you don't like our podcast, simply go find another one. We genuinely wish you the very best. Explicit
