In this heartfelt episode of The Pineapple Express, I explore grief in the swinger lifestyle — the losses that aren’t always acknowledged, from friendships and play partners to deep emotional bonds. This episode holds space for heartache, reflection, and healing within non-monogamous communities.

Stay with us until the end, where I share my personal essay, “Silver Springs, Tulip Fields, and Upside Down Pineapples”, featured on The Queer Love Project Substack. It’s a deeply intimate story of love, loss, and the transformative power of connection. https://queerloveproject.substack.com

This episode is dedicated to my dear friend Brad Weiner, who left us too soon, until we meet again teddy bear.
