Got some sh!t to say?

For a lot of gay men, gogo dancers are just… part of the scenery. They're at the bars, the clubs, Pride parties, circuit events—and we watch, we flirt, we tip, and sometimes we do a whole lot more. But when you're in a relation... more

    I love spending time with Marko and Tony. They are both so warm and funny - it’s like being with friends you’ve known a lifetime. Each episode they manage to take us on an engaging journey that explores relationships, values and what it means to be LGBTQ in the modern world. I cannot wait for the next episode!

  • Relatable

    Finally a couple that reflects and makes choices based on their affection, consideration and respect for each other. Despite the frequent banter in which they poke jabs at each other, their values and ideas are so aligned they can’t help love each other. Thank you 😊

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Someone Like You
Q: I was wondering if either of you have seen all the conversation on social media about dick size, and what is or isn't defined as an average or big dick. What do either of you define as an average dick, and what would be a very large one to you? And with that, have either of you ever experienced a dick that you knew you couldn't take or enjoy?
They estimate average length at roughly five and a half to six inches, with seven to eight inches on the larger side and nine inches or more very large. They discuss girth, curvature, comfort, and their own experiences, and discourage shaming people over size.
Dating with Intention pt. 2
Q: How do you break up with someone who has done absolutely nothing wrong, and how honest should I be about the attraction, money, and lifestyle differences without completely destroying his confidence?
Brinkley suggests first considering whether the person is certain they want to end the relationship or whether they have unaddressed concerns they might work through together. If they are sure, he recommends explaining that the relationship is no longer a good fit and describing differing values without assigning blame.
Dating with Intention pt. 2
Q: When I say dating with intention, I would love to hear your thoughts on that or what you would say to patients or anybody that comes to you for that bit of advice.
Brinkley describes intentional dating as a flexible, patient process. He encourages people to question fixed expectations and past experiences, and to consider whether someone could be a supportive and compatible partner.
ENCORE: Head First
Q: I mean, let's just dive right in, right? Let's start from the very, very beginning. How did all of this shit start? How did you get picked? How did this happen?
The producer from Uruguay saw Stefano doing OnlyFans and thought it would be a good idea to pair him with someone who had written a book about Grindr and gay relationships; they met at the altar and began to learn about each other in real time, documenting growth, challenges, and affection as the relationship developed.
ENCORE: Doing the Work
Q: Jack asks if moving in with his partner is a bad idea given his partner's self-sufficiency concerns and potential for marriage, and whether this is grounds for pause.
Ted suggests focusing on communication first to understand each other's expectations, discusses practical steps like sharing cooking or car chores, and cautions against rushing into marriage at 24, recommending time to learn and grow together while keeping boundaries and expectations clear.
