Love In Brief

Have you ever wanted to explore a D/s relationship? Or maybe just some fun play? Playing with power dynamics can be suuuuuuuper fun, but it's helpful to know a bit about how they work, what can make them great, and how to negotiate those dynamics. On this episode of LIB, RY and Lola welcome partners @DynamicDiem (FL) and @subslxt (FL) to talk about their D/s dynamic, the principles by which they practice, and they joy of power exchange (with plenty of ABDL talk wedged in there just to keep your interest, you ol' perv you).

On this quarterly Question Round-Up, RY and Lola tackle such diverse topics as when to tell your spouse about trying ABDL, when caregiving turns into codependency, how sub-communities fraction, how to make ABDL friends, how to get over internalized shame, and (just for funsies) a day in the life of a 24/7 diaper-wearer named Lola!

Life gets so much richer with the crazy, exhilarating, deep fun of kink (and especially ABDL) doesn’t it? Have you ever wondered what *else* in the ABDL world and the kink world could be really rewarding? Maybe even wondered if some of your previous self-imposed boxes might be ready for some dismantling? On this episode, RY and Teddy talk to @ComfortablyCrinkly (IG) and @Mrs.BabyPants (IG) about how they have expanded their own boundaries inside of ABDL and outside of it, how they have tried new things to see how they feel, even taken on new roles and dynamics they thought they might never take on. And, more importantly, how their lives have changed as a result.

AT LONG LAST, it is here! We have had a two-week radio silence since CAP; there were some technical glitches with the audio, so we had to ship it off to our audio pro friends Mr November (FL) and Dadbaud (IG) to clean it up and make it listenable. And they pulled it off! It was a really, really fabulous live episode with incredible questions and an amazing group of attendees and panel, so we didn't want you to miss it. This live episode recorded at CAPCon 2026 starts with RY, Lola and Teddy reflecting on CAPCon 2026, then into the actual live episode audio. Thanks for bearing with it; I promise it's worth the extra work to listen closely. And a huge thanks to our panel : BabyMisty, Nikki Love, and ComfortablyCrinkly all knocked it out of the park!

It’s almost time, IT’S ALMOST TIME… the biggest ABDL event of the year, CAPCon, is just a couple of weeks away, and we want to give YOU a preview of the fun, some helpful hints for packing and preparing, and some advice on how to have your very best CAPCon Experience. Not going this year? That’s OK, it’s still a fun episode for those who are even considering going in the future! On this episode, RY, Lola, and Teddy talk to Nito and Ruka, two CAPCon staffers and long-time CAPCon organizers, about this year’s festivities and what surprises might be right around the corner. (Aaaand, listen for the “secret handshake” from RY that unlocks a giveaway exclusively for LIB listeners attending CAPCon! [while supplies last])

It's our first crossover episode! On this episode, you get all three LIB hosts -- RY, Lola, and Teddy connect with two of the hosts of In The Nook, Noah and Fancy, to find out what is going on with our community, where the "mainstream" ABDL community (or "straight" community, though that is a bit of a misnomer) and the gay men's ABDL community meet. It's a rich discussion about commonalities, differences, and where we can learn from each other. And most of all it's just 5 ABDL podcast hosts enjoying some chat together. We hope you really enjoy!

In part two of our series on the hardest times in our lives and how we have found our way out of them, RY and Lola pick up with Bradly (FL/Tumblr) and Elektra (Tumblr/FL) to talk about how they found their way back out of the dark spaces and into a new kind of life. This second half of our discussion looks at real, practical paradigm-shifts and next-steps that can be taken when you realize something needs to change, and how to move forward and rebuild after losing the life you knew. We hope for those in a tough spot, this episode gives you both some hope and practical advice on how you can find your own way out. And for those who haven't hit those times, we hope this advice sticks with you in case you find yourself needing to bounce back.

Many of us have had a time in life where we have hit rock-bottom: unexpected life-changes have hit, major life plans haven't worked out, relationships have failed, or we needed to escape an impossible situation with nothing. In those moments where we have bottomed-out, first we needed to survive... and then we needed to find a way back up. In this two-part series, RY and Lola talk with Bradly (FL/Tumblr) and Elektra (Tumblr/FL) about those times where we have hit our absolute lowest point, including what got us there, the truths we needed to tell ourselves, and how we knew it was time for a change (and not the fun kind, the really hard kind). In the next episode, we'll look at how we each found our way out and through to bounce back stronger than ever! If you have been through a rock-bottom, we hope you find a little of your own story in these stories, and we hope this discussion helps you feel seen. And in the next episode, we hope it even helps you begin to find your way out!

It's that time of year again, RY's favorite episode of the year EVERY year: the New Year's Celebration! This year's question was "what are ways in 2025 you took steps toward loving yourself and your ABDL kink more?"... and boy oh boy did the ABDL community respond! This episode features YOUR voices and stories as RY and Lola and Teddy read and listen to how YOU took positive steps toward self-love, self-acceptance, and building relationship and community this year. It feels like payday, and we had more responses than ever this year by a landslide! We hope you relish this long-form celebration, and return to it on the days you feel disheartened or stuck with your ABDL kink. It turns out, there are steps you can take to move forward, and even to fall in love with yourself and your kink.

Ho ho ho, MERRY CHRISTMAS! It's RY Clause here, sneaking down your chimney to drop one little extra present under your tree -- it's a Winter Question Round-Up! On this episode of LIB, RY and Lola tackle questions about: How to stop the binge & purge cycle Making friends online Finding your everyday rhythm with your little side (even if you don't engage it every day) How to consider consent when you have others living in your home Body image in ABDL participation Boy, that sounds like a lot when you put it that way, doesn't it? But we are leaning on our years of experience talking to others in the community and learning from their expertise, so we promise to get right to it and get you home before Christmas dinner. This episode also comes with a heaping side of *special ask of YOU, the LIB listener* as we prepare for our NYE episode. (Hint hint - we want YOU on the podcast, which is coming out New Year's Day, so jump on it!) Thanks in advance for your help, we can't wait to have you join our New Year's celebration!

As a part of our Makers Series celebrating those in the ABDL community who step up to make something for all of us to enjoy, Lola and RY talk to Daisy from LNGU (LNGU-ABDL.com), a French diaper company that has been growing by leaps and bounds. Daisy talks about how LNGU got started, how a girls' sleepover night turned into an idea for a new kind of diaper, and how evolution of a diaper brand involves a lot of trial-and-learning while keeping the core spirit of customer want/need alive. So, be a "Happiness Monitor" yourself by tuning in to this episode to meet another fabulous Maker -- LNGU!

Really excited to be back with a new episode, and one featuring the fabulous Teddy as co-host! Teddy has been world-traveling and experiencing all kinds of new places, experiences, and Love, and so glad to have him bring all of that back to us so we can learn from him. This week, Teddy and RY have a spiritual-successor to our "Awesome Aces" ep (#46), this time focused on Demisexuality! On this episode, our guests @LilMissPumpkin (FL) and @SlothOnTheRocks (FL) talk with us about their experiences coming to identify as demisexual, what demisexuality is and isn't for them, offer some brilliant tips for navigating your own sexuality, whatever it may be, and dig into what it's like to be both Demi + ABDL. It's a whole lot of learnin' and way more talk about amusement parks than you would expect from a sex podcast. So buckle up (or at least make sure your riding harness is nice and tight) for a fabulous ride into Demisexuality!

Some of us are Bigs, or Tops, or Dom(mes). Some of us are Littles, or Bottoms, or subs... and some of us (including yours truly) love to be BOTH! This is an episode all about SWITCHING, and Lola and I are proud to welcome our new friends LALady (LALadyinMS on Tumblr) and Carp (carptrout on Tumblr) to talk about finding the weird wonderful world of ABDL switching, how to navigate switching with a partner, and how switching works in our particular couplehoods. Of course, there are as many ways to switch as there are switchy folks and couples, so this is far from the last episode on the subject! But we wanted to bring one couples' perspective together with our own, and we hope you enjoy learning along with us. So turn off the lights (use the switch), may get some warmup domming/subbing in (use the switch), and get ready to talk about SWITCHING!

It's Summer Blow-Out Time, and our deals have gotten CRAZY! On this Question Round-Up we cover not our usual six... not seven... but EIGHT questions from you, our listeners! (I figured if I put it in caps it looks more impressive...) We talk about how to do 24/7 when you work in an office, how to experience little space *without* diapers, how to respond to your partner's disgust with your fetish, how to set up a scene, and even the origin story on Lola's "Messy Monday" posts. All that and more, *and* a beautiful testimonial from a listener on the impact of community and self-acceptance on their life. So, come on in to LIB's Big Summer Blow-out (not that kind of blowout) and feel the savings wrapped around you like a warm... well, you know!

Have you ever wondered what a Nappy Nipper is?? Have you always felt a dull, aching longing in your soul for whatever terrycloth toweling is? Did you ever put on a disposable diaper and think, "that was waaaaaay too easy?" If so, you may be ready to try cloth diapers! On this episode of Love in Brief, RY and Lola talk with @ExecBaby (FL) and Liv (@NewbornABDL on IG / babygirlandmommy496 on Tumblr) about all things cloth diapers-- how they work, tips and tricks for using them, and why a big chunk of ABDLs are hopelessly devoted to these awesome diapers. Here are some of the items and videos referenced in today's episode! Leakmaster Flat Cloth Diapers Nappy Nippers Ecoable Cloth Diapers Dependeco Cloth Diapers Terrycloth Towel Diapers Modified Kite Fold How to fold terry squares tutorial Dotty Diaper Company White Cloth Diapers Ecoable All-in-One Diapers

You know how sometimes you really really want to play diapers and play kink and do all sorts of nasty, unseemly things to yourself and/or your partner(s)? And then, kind of inexplicably, a few days or weeks later you could kind of care less about kink or ABDL play? It's easy to get down or hard on ourselves during the times when our kink drive or sex drive wanes, and today's discussion, RY and Teddy talk with Bonsai_Baby (FL/IG) and Blinkxz (FL) about why our kink can ebb and flow, and what to do when that happens. (Hint-- love yourself well, and cut yourself some slack!)

We get a lot of questions about faith and how it interacts (or doesn’t) with kink and ABDL. So we thought it was time to revisit this topic, and we brought along a couple of our beloved friends who are also people with big faith! On this episode, RY and Lola interview TiniestTyrant (FL) and Little-Librarian (FL) on their faith, their kink, and how they have tackled some of the big questions that come up when the two intersect in the same person. Our guests recommend these two resources if you are interested in more! TiniestTyrant recommends ReconcilingWorks.org - A Lutheran program to promote welcome and full participation for all Little Librarian recommends the book “God Didn't Make Us to Hate Us” by Rev. Lizzie McManus-Dail, a book about healing hurt from religious scorn and promote a sense of community.

Can you hear that triangle ringin', little Cowpoke? Well yee-haw, that means it's time for another Question Round-Up! On this episode RY and Lola get into the deep stuff on topics such as trying out Switching, how to love your inner child, tattoos on Littles, how to get involved in your regional community, reciprocating with your partner, and even a bit on tariffs! Also, here are the previous episodes mentioned in this discussion: Episode 126 - Munches Episode 115 - ABDL Retail Stores Episode 51 - Making Friends Episode 23 - Getting Involved

Badges and rooms for CAPCon 2026, the world's biggest ABDL convention, went on sale yesterday afternoon... and they sold out rooms at both the host hotel and the secondary hotel in TWO HOURS! But fear not, in this episode of Love in Brief RY and Lola jumped on with Kane (the Convention Lead for CAPCon) and Nito (Deputy Admin Lead) to talk about this record-breaking sell-out, and get information on how to still get access to rooms and badges in the months leading up to CAPCon 2026. It's hot off the press, and just for you! Can't wait to see you next March, tune in to make sure you know how to get your badge!

Getting to a place of accepting your ABDL side is hard, but imagine turning a corner and not just *accepting* that you like diapers, but *embracing and celebrating* it! ABDL folks aren't the only ones who feel shame about diapers... so do some folks who struggle with incontinence. And whether you want to wear, you need to wear, or both, the journey to self-acceptance and positivity is one of the most important you will ever take. This episode features Pree (@BumblePree on IG), a person living with MS and incontinence who has been featured on Vice and other worldwide media recently as a "diaper influencer" because of her advocacy and encouraging media for those who wear diapers. TeddyBear and RY talk with Pree about her experience turning the corner into accepting and advocacy, and we tackle listener questions and comments about embracing positivity for their want/need to wear diapers.

On this episode of LiB, RY and Lola stop in at the headquarters of NorthShore Care Supply to talk all things diapers, all things NorthShore, what to look forward to in the future, and even a warehouse tour! If you want to see the inside of the warehouse along with us, click on this link to check out that media! Also, you can now use code LIB10 to save 10% on NorthShore orders! They surprised me with that little nugget right at the end of the podcast! I hope you enjoy, I know I will.

Have you ever wanted to meet other dippy folks in real life, but aren't sure where to start? A MUNCH is the easiest, lowest-risk way to get to know other kinky folk who share your interests. On this episode RY and Teddy talk with munch hosts Lolly and DCDino about the munches they run in their areas, about what munches are, what they are like, and how you can find munches and have a great time engaging in them.

It's freezing in the American Midwest, so we did the only thing we could... we saved up our money and got the hell out of there. On this special edition of Love In Brief, we are recording beachside from sunny Mexico, sending warm vibes and sunshine all the way back to the frozen tundra that is most of the Northern Hemisphere. We usually take January off, but since we got rained in for a couple of days, we decided to try something new: an "ask me anything" episode based on listener-submitted questions. So, it's not the usual interview or advice fare, but we hope you enjoy this personal diversion nonetheless, and we'll be back in February with more advice and interviews on Love in Brief!

One of RY's very FAVORITE episodes every year is when we get the chance to ask people what good things their ABDL kink has brought them. In the past we've asked what you're PROUD OF, what made you HAPPY you had an ABDL kink, etc. This year, we asked what you are GRATEFUL FOR with regard to your ABDL kink, and boy did y'all show up! On this episode we'll hear from YOU, our LiB listeners, as you share your own stories and what made you grateful for your ABDL kink. It's the perfect way to ring in the new year!

Are you going to CAPCon SideQuest? You are??? You lucky dog, you! Welp, we've got some hot info for you; on this episode of LIB, RY and Teddy talk with Nito, the Director of Communications for CAPCon, about all of the last-minute details you'll want to know! Are you NOT going to CAPCon SideQuest? Well, here's a big ol' FOMO warning, but we think it's worth a listen anyway as whatever goes well at SideQuest may become a regular CAP feature! And, RY tells you how YOUR voice can become a part of our annual New Year's celebration, you won't want to miss it!

Howdy Partners! You know we enjoy a good round-up, on this Fall 2024 edition @LolaAndThenSome and I get to not 3, not 4, not 5, but 10 questions in the space of just over an hour! We'll talk about topics like- - What to do when your 'nilla partner shows signs of a Little vibe - DLs finding their way in an AB world - Tips and tricks for ABDL/BDSM scening - A fun near-miss story - How to meet folks online - What to do when your ex knows Plus a quick lightning round (kerchow!) about our relationship, by listener request. So ENJOY, this one is chock full of advice, and some of it may just be a rootin' tootin' good time!

WHOOOAH, hold onto your butts, it's 3 episodes in three weeks? Yup, we're going crazy over here at LiB Central and EVERYTHING MUST GO! OK, not really, it's just that we had juuuust recorded a CAPCON SideQuest episode when the news dropped about CAP '25. So we thought now seemed a good time to put out this episode, so that those of you who are wracked with disappointment would get to hear about all the cool things happening at the SideQuest in January while tickets are still available. In case you decide to go! Enjoy this detailed conversation with CAPCon Founding Director Ellexy and Convention Director Kane about what Sidequest is all about, what kinds of cool things are new to SideQuest, and what to look forward to with the new digs. All is not lost, it's a great ep, and SideQuest sounds super fun! More info, tickets, and contact the organizers at CAPCON.club

It is so hard to say goodbye to someone you love, whether it is due to a breakup, a change in living situations, a broken friendship, or a death. And how we deal with grief and loss can deeply intersect with our self-care, our sense of intimacy, and our kink life. On this episode, RY talks one-on-one with Mako, the co-creator and co-host of The Big Little Podcast, about loss and grief, and how we can move through and move forward.

This is one we have wanted to do ever since CAPCon this year... a deeper dive into PET PLAY & ABDL! @LolaAndThenSome (FL) has been really excited to journey into Pet Play territory, and she suggested we invite @pupscoutpony (FL) and @mschievousmouse (FL) on as they were amazing at CAP. And of course, they were amazing here as well! Here are some of the products they mention in the podcast mr-s-leather.com wruffstuff.com etsy.com amazon.com (look for halloween costumes!)

As we wrap up Pride month 2024, we want to talk about what it’s like being trans in the ABDL community! My guests are @ABDLPedro_1925(IG)/Pedro_Luis-DL(FL), @AmanitaDreams (IG/FL) and @hbananer(FL)/hbananer09(IG) and together we dig into topics like the overlap between gender and kink journeys, the intersection of trans and ABDL, issues that trans people in the community face, and what it’s like navigating both a trans identity *and* an ABDL kink at the same time. It’s a fabulous discussion, full of tons of learning and a lot of fun along the way! Here are the resources we reference in this episode— Are Neurodivrse People More Likely to be Kinky? Sex & Psychology Podcast Dr. Liam Wignall - “Kinky In the Digital Age” A Short History of Trans Misogny - Jules Gill-Peterson Come As You Are - Emily Nagoski The Transgender Issue - An Argument for Justice - Shon Faye

On this long-form episode of Love In Brief, RY is delighted to introduce three brand new voices to LIB, and to focus on a community we don't talk enough about on the podcast: gay men in ABDL!

This episode features some fantastic relationship stories, personal triumphs and losses, and killer advice and wisdom from our three guests -- @LittleTim55 (FL), @bunnyboyjoey (IG), and @puprootbeer (IG). It's a fabulous and heartwarming episode (and at times more than a little bit super adorable)!

Sharing your ABDL kink with a 'nilla partner can be scary, and getting involved in the ABDL community can be an intimidating prospect to boot...but sometimes getting involved in the community can be exactly what you and your 'nilla partner need to grow closer together! On this episode we talk to @rachandtucks (FL) about how their relationship started, how their early days of navigating kink started out with some real roller coaster events, and how getting engaged with the ABDL community helped bring them closer together. I am joined by this episode's co-host, my partner @lolaandthensome (FL), and together with Rach and Tucks we also talk about tips and tricks for events and community participation!

And of course, where rope play and ABDL can overlap and play together! Panda was also kind enough to share some resources with us, you can get those at transcripts.loveinbrief.com in the Resources folder. Check them out, it's well worth it!

(UPDATED with two new audio testimonials) It’s that time of year again! We asked YOU to help us celebrate the New Year by telling us what about your kink you are PROUD OF this year, and you came back with some fabulous stories, and even an amazing poem! There is also a SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT from rnt in this episode, and a tribute to our friend Diapered Kent. You don’t want to miss this one!

Are you waiting for someone to read you the perfect bedtime story before you go to sleep to wait for Santa? I'm here for you... I recorded this just for you... little or Big, I want you to be ready to close your eyes and enjoy drifting off to sleep as you await that Christmas joy. Here's a little bedtime story for just you...

It's that time of year, when we show our friends and partners we love them by showering them in absorbent undergarments and brightly-colored onesies and the like. Or, we just show ourselves how much we love US by buying ourselves some amazing little gear or special diapers! Either way, it's time to talk shopping. On this episode of Love in Brief, RY talks with Fuzzy and Saray from ABDLr in Denver, the world's largest ABDL store, about what to get excited about this holiday season. And you'll want to listen soon, as some of the events and products are happening soon, or one of a kind! Also, tune in for the end for RY's annual New Year's Eve ask of YOU to come join us on a special New Year's episode of LIB. Please contribute, we want to hear your voice and your hear your love come to life on the show!

We spend a lot of time and focus on LIB on supporting and encouraging those with an ABDL kink, but not nearly enough time on the *partners* of those with an ABDL kink! On this episode my intrepid co-host @teddybear_withme (IG) and I spend some time with @ABDealing (IG) and their partner @Switchydips (IG) talking about how and why they started a Discord support group just for partners of ABDL folk (or "plus ones" as ABDealing calls them), and how you or your partner can join their support world. This is a can't-miss episode for anyone with a non-ABDL partner, or anyone who aspires to have their ABDL side with a partner who may not have an ABDL kink! BTW: ABDealing wanted me to let you know that the Golden Babies group is open to people of any age; they have attendees in their 20's! So don't let that stop you from checking it out. ;) Also, a huge thanks to @teddybear_withme for producing this ep and finding our amazing guests, to @Dadbod (IG) for pulling the edit together, and to our amazing Scribies in our LIB Transcription group for making it more accessible via our transcripts.loveinbrief.com website. It really does take a village to support all of us in this community, and this episode is a great example!

LIB is back with an episode about how ABDL interacts with our stress from our work and our lives. Sometimes it helps, sometimes it causes more stress, sometimes BOTH! Join @beachbaby1 and imagine_all_the_people87 (IG) as we talk about their very stressful jobs, their ABDL lives from both a Dom and Little perspective, and how ABDL can be a stress reliever *and* a stress-causer with regards to work. **Note - This episode includes frank discussions on mental health and intense stress. If you or someone you love is in a mental health crisis, please see this list of international suicide and crisis hotlines hotlines to find your best resource.

Hi, we missed you! It has been a busy summer, but we are so pleased to be able to bring you this episode, where RY and rnt team up again to tackle four big questions from YOU, our listeners! We love you, and we love the questions you send, so please keep them coming. :)

For those of us who like to (or even aspire to!) play with others in person, it can be daunting to think about how best to talk through what we want, what our play partner(s) wants, and how best to set up the experience so we all enjoy ourselves. Talking consent and boundaries is a baseline *must*, and talking desires and hopes makes for a much better experience! In this episode, Duffman82 (FL/IG) talks with us about how to set up for amazing play with great communication, how to continue to communicate even in scene space, and how to set yourself and play partners up for a wicked good time.

We're batting over .500 on our question-answering, and that's something, isn't it? In this ep we cover engaging the community in-person, what happens when being a Little contrasts with your own body-image, finding people in the community you trust, what happens when your content blows up, and does shared kink help relationships! Wow, now that we put it that way, it's a lot to cover. Enjoy!
