Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Ep231: Face Rope and Human Gongs - An Interview with Marcos Mangani
Q: Where do you like to start with face rope?
The starting anchor point varies, but I typically begin around the forehead or under the chin, then pass through the neck toward the ears, always adapting to pattern and comfort.
Ep226: Minimalistic Western Rope with Rigger Mystrix
Q: For listeners wanting to try Minimalistic Western Rope, how do you suggest they get started?
She recommends attending local rope jams for free-form practice, choosing workshops that emphasize free-form rope or arms-out harnesses, and combining both jams and workshops to learn while also applying personal style.
Ep226: Minimalistic Western Rope with Rigger Mystrix
Q: Mystrix, you tie quite a bit with synthetic rope. What is it that you like about this type of fibers?
She explains a long-standing allergy to jute oil, leading to a preference for nylon and later posh, noting nylon's slip and knot behavior and posh's washable, scent-adjustable properties which suit her varied scenes.
Ep222: Whimsy & Erotic Anguish — Creating a Shibari Colouring Book with Muffy (Against-TheGrain)
Q: Where can our listeners find you and get a copy of the books?
The books are on Amazon in multiple marketplaces, with direct ordering through the artist at a discount, plus social links on Fetlife and Instagram.
Ep222: Whimsy & Erotic Anguish — Creating a Shibari Colouring Book with Muffy (Against-TheGrain)
Q: Muffy, did this process of transforming real life pictures of ties into coloring pages change the way you look at rope in any way?
She notes that transforming photographs into art highlights the romance and beauty of rope while keeping safety in mind, and that imaginative elements can enhance perception without being instructional.
