Naughty N'awlins Part 2: Parades, Parties & Pure Chaos | Episode 255
Naughty N’awlins Part 2 is here—and Dan and Lacy are wrapping up their unforgettable trip to New Orleans with even more wild stories, meaningful moments, and nonstop partying.
They begin with the Sexual Freedom Parade, sharing why the experience is about so much more than costumes and celebration. Surrounded by a community proudly embracing freedom, acceptance, and authenticity, the parade becomes one of the most emotional and moving moments of the entire event.
From there, the energy turns up at the Glow Night Party, where Dan and Lacy connect and play with some new couples before preparing to host their own party the following day at The Boot Scoot’n Rodeo. Between mechanical bull rides, line dancing, great music, and a packed crowd, their party brings a little country chaos to Naughty N’awlins.
But the night is only getting started. Immediately after, they head to the Secrets Party, where things get even crazier with shots galore, wet T-shirt contests, crowd surfing, and plenty of unforgettable moments. Finally, everyone gets dressed up for the Mardi Gras Ball before Dan and the other DJs officially shut down Naughty N’awlins with an epic after-party lasting from 2:00 to 4:30 in the morning.
Pour yourself a drink and join Dan and Lacy as they recap the final days of Naughty N’awlins—filled with connection, community, new experiences, and just the right amount of debauchery.

SPEAKER_00Welcome to the Swing Nation Podcast, a podcast by swingers for swingers, where we look to educate others and push back on the negative stigmas and misconceptions associated with our lifestyle. Come with us and share our pineapple journey as we travel the globe, interview the experts, learn and grow together. Join the nation. And we are back with another full-length episode of the Swing Nation Podcast. We are. Okay, so when we left you, we are talking all things naughty New Orleans.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, we had just finished the beach party.
SPEAKER_00We had just finished uh the beach party, which was Friday afternoon. Um, and we were getting ready to go outside to start the um parade.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, in years past, they've started the parade in front of the actual hotel. But I think last year, maybe was the first year that the bulk of everyone is at the beach party. It's probably the most popular party of the week. So um they moved it to start like it's so it starts on bourbon street, like right outside of the beach. So it just kind of works out because everybody just sort of walks out into the parade.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, I would also say in previous years they haven't gone down Bourbon Street.
SPEAKER_01Um last year it did, right?
SPEAKER_00Last year was the first year that it did that and that they started this, you know, line of the state. Well, at least since we since we've been gone down, yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_01I'm sure at some point over the years they have. Yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_00Uh and that's definitely a different vibe. I mean, I think before we had started in front of the Aster and then like went around in front of like Colettes and kind of, you know, some of those other side streets and then came back. Um, but actually marching in a sexual freedom parade with pineapples and all of our people right down the central bourbon street is definitely an experience I know we enjoy every year. Uh, and I really like um seeing other people experience it.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, so we mentioned last week that Tara was with us and she actually walked in the parade with us, and she liked seeing her reaction to it was she was like, I think I'm getting emotional. And it very much is a very touching thing. If you've never been to Naughty in New Orleans or maybe thinking about going, I highly recommend being a part of it because it is definitely an awesome experience. Uh, so we walked out of the beach, and so every year we pass out flags, which this is like our fourth or fifth time doing it. It was actually your idea the first time, and we've just kind of continued the tradition. So we order like 500 flags or something crazy like that, and I put them in like little drawstring backpacks, and I recruit people to help me, and we literally walk the streets of Bourbon Street, passing them out. And it is such a fun experience to see kids and family, people of all ages like waving the flag that have no it's funny when they realize it's a swinger parade. Uh, but it it's a lot of fun to see that.
SPEAKER_00Yeah. So we pass it out not only to people, so we pass it out to the people in the parade. So everybody, like half the people in the parade, end up with one of these pineapple flags. And then, like you said, the extra ones, as we walk down Bourbon Street or and then eventually Canal Street and the other streets, uh, you actually pass the flags out, or we all pass the flags out to the people that are standing on the sides. And you're right, it is funny because a lot of the people that are standing on the sides, I don't think they fully understand. They just think, oh, this is a Bourbon Street parade. Like it's a Mardi Gras kind of parade. Like, oh, cool. And then they start like you can see them, like you can, if you watch them, you can literally see them start to read some of the signs and things that people are holding up. And then you hand them the flag and they see the pineapple upside down. So our flags have an upside down, like uh rainbow pineapple on them, and they look at the pineapple and you can tell it like when it clicks. Yeah, and I will be saying to be fair, there's not too many people that like ew gross and throw it down. Most of them like smile and laugh and start waving it, and it's like a positive reaction. It may be a little bit of like a humorous, like they think it's funny, but it's also usually a fairly positive reaction.
SPEAKER_01Well, I think just because New Orleans kind of lends itself to like more openness and people are just there for a good time. Yeah, you know, if you're in your hometown, I think it would be a different situation. But most people are there on vacation, just having fun, want to see all the craziness that New Orleans brings. And I think the sexual freedom parade is just kind of part of that. I do know it's funny to see the evolution of our flags because I can remember the first year I was like begging people to take it. I'm like, Will you want a flag? And they're like, no, you know. But now it's like people are coming up, like asking, can we have like people will take them home to their family and friends, you know? So it's it's kind of funny to see through the years of us passing. 100%.
SPEAKER_00The first year, I don't think we gave them all away. No. Uh now it's like we never have enough of them. And uh, yeah, like you said, people will they start seeing us passing them out and they will like come line up to get up to get a flat.
SPEAKER_01And it's kind of funny because my face is so recognizable within the community. So many people will come, they're like, I'm taking literally taking selfies and stuff while I'm passing it out. And a lot of the the business owners on Bourbon Street within like the New Orleans area are now like sliding into our DMs, wanting us to like come and film a TikTok in their um whatever their club, their like the their the Harley Davidson guy was messaging, and then he came out, you know, and he was like, Hey, I've been messaging you. I'm like, hey, so it's like really neat. And I like so we've been seeing all these pictures and stuff, and then there is some local New Orleans, it's not like uh a news thing, but it's like somebody that must have a Facebook or Instagram and they go. Yeah, it's like it's so like now seeing like all the videos and and pictures and stuff that are coming out. We've had so many friends that like send us or like tag us, they're like, I see all my friends, I see y'all. So it's really neat to kind of see it be what it is, you know, for us.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, I think this happened last year too, but even more so um this year is like you said, the bystanders are filming the parade and putting it on TikTok and social media and saying, Oh, the pineapple people are here in New Orleans this weekend, and that gets so much attention.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, and then people we know will start tagging us, or you know, like so it's really neat. It's it's very neat to see it.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, so yeah, I mean, I'm sure there, you know, those those videos on social media probably of the parade have millions of views at this point. Um, so it's good to for that to get that far out there, and it's I think it's a good thing. So it's it's not a swingers parade, it's a sexual freedom parade. Uh, I know people kind of get that confused. It's it's it's more just kind of saying, hey, we think people should be able to do what they want in the privacy of their bedroom, and the government or your boss or employers shouldn't be able to discriminate you or treat you differently because of that. And I think that's an idea that you don't have to be a swinger necessarily to believe in, and and that's why it's called the sexual freedom parade, because it's not all swingers that go to Naughty, New Orleans. There's there's nudists, there's uh BDSM type people, Polly, there's kink people, yeah, there's poly people. Um, so really the message of the parade is what consensual adults do in the privacy of their bedroom should not be influenced by outside entities, or or those people shouldn't be able to be able to be discriminated against for what they do in their bedroom. And that's really the whole idea of the parade. And I don't think there's too many people that would want to argue like, oh no, I think the government should decide what you do in the privacy of your bedroom between consenting adults. You know what I mean? Uh so I don't think it's very controversial. Um, I think that it gets a lot of attention because you the pineapple is swinging and stuff like that. But uh it's a good thing, and uh, it's really one of the highlights of Naughty New Orleans that I I enjoy every year. And like you said, it's nice to see, you know, I think the first time or two we did it, me and you got kind of emotional uh during the parade. And and it's you know, uh then uh Hump Days Quickies came for the first time and they got emotional. And then this year we had Tara for the first time.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, I feel like every year we have a different friend or something that's a part of it, and we get to see those emotions, and it's it's yeah, and Tara's been, you know, she's very public.
SPEAKER_00Uh, you know, she's part of the PTA at her kids' school, and she's gotten, you know, kickback and stuff like that because of it. She's been a big advocate person for the lifestyle. So I'm glad she got to participate at. And I'm glad it makes me, I guess, not happy, but it's nice to see that it invokes that same reaction from her of like this is a kind of a touching moment to have our community be out here and kind of loud and proud.
SPEAKER_02Yeah.
SPEAKER_00Um, I guess I never really understood the idea of like parades or pride parades or anything like that. This is kind of like I guess the equivalent of like a swinger pride parade.
SPEAKER_02Yeah.
SPEAKER_00And I I get why communities need that. It really is kind of like a almost like a healing experience.
SPEAKER_01Yeah. No, I the parade is like a highlight of of my week every year. And there are some people that go to Naughty every year and do not, they don't participate in the parade. Um, so I, you know, if that's you or if you're thinking about going, I highly recommend it. Even if you don't walk in it, just go out there and watch it, you know. I I get walking in it can, you know, there's cameras. There's we just talked about that. I get that, but just being out there and seeing it, I think is is beneficial and worth it.
SPEAKER_00Yeah. A lot of our friends that aren't public will just kind of hide in the crowds on the side of the street. So at least if they, I guess they get caught in a camera, they can say, Oh yeah, I was there, but I wasn't, yeah. I wasn't just happening to be there.
SPEAKER_01And let me add, I very publicly put myself where I'll be on camera. You know, if you know anything about me, I there's not a camera I don't love, you know. So like I walk on the side, I want my face to be seen. I want my flag in my hand. You know, I want our pineapple that's on all of our stuff to be shown. Like I I want that. I am very out and very proud. So I position myself to be front and center so those cameras can catch me. So there are ways you can be a little bit more discreet about it. For sure. If you're not, you know, an intention hog like me.
SPEAKER_00Uh no, okay. So the parade was great. So we ended the parade at the uh the afster. So it went down bourbon and kind of came around, cut back, and we ended at the uh the afster hotel.
SPEAKER_01They actually like walked into the hotel, which I don't remember them doing that in the past.
SPEAKER_00No, usually we it would end on the sidewalk in the past, yeah. But the band, so there's there is a bourbon street band that you know has all their brass instruments and it's playing that classic bourbon street, you know, Mardi Gras kind of music. Uh they went right into the hotel. Which was cool, and into one of the the downstairs ballroom uh and we kind of ended there, which was super cool.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, it was super cool. Um, and then honestly, after that, between the BH party and that, I was completely drenched in sweat. Like I'm not a sweater, but it was you know July in New Orleans, and we had, I mean, I was I was pretty fucking beat after all of that. Um but there, so at this snotty, they had a tattoo, like uh shop, shop, yeah, pop-up shop. Yeah, um, and every fucking body there got tattoos, I think except for us.
SPEAKER_00Yeah.
SPEAKER_01Like they were busy. And what was cool is they did like glow-in-the-dark tattoos.
SPEAKER_00They did um some of them were like BDSM-y, you know, like you know, paddles and handcuffs.
SPEAKER_01They had like more, like they had drawn up some stuff that was more swinger, you know, kink. Dildos and yeah, uh anyway, they were busy the whole time. So but Terra had made an appointment for like right after the parade. So she like we lost her, like when we walked in and we followed the band. So text, I'm like, where'd you go? She's like, I went up here to get my tattoo, and I was like, okay, so we went up and of course checked our table, um, which by Friday afternoon was wiped clean. I mean, like, I did like start not putting out as much stuff at one time to kind of make it last, but it it was basically wiped out on Friday. Um, so we, you know, we replenished our table, and then I got to see her do her tattoo. We ended up talking, you ended up talking to people, and so we stood up there for a little while, and then after that, it was back to the room to try to rest because that that had been like a pretty long day. Like we hadn't had any food really. We we were pretty beat.
SPEAKER_00Yeah. No, so we went back to the room, and uh I I don't know if we got PF Changs, but that seemed to be the trend, and honestly, it's like one of my favorite that's our swinger in between the the pool and the club kind of which is funny.
SPEAKER_01Somebody was asking us if you notice when you I do my vlogs and stuff, you'll see me. Um, we get PF chains like two out of three nights or whatever, because we get like the meat and it's like high in protein, and it you know, it's it's good, we eat well, and then because we're not eating as often as we should, and stuff like this. So yeah, we had PF chains like I think every night, but like one or two of this trip.
SPEAKER_00Well, it's and because you're door dashing, it's hard to like. I don't know, I feel like every time I get a cheeseburger, by the time I get it, it's like cold or it's you know, it's soggy or you know, whatever. So it's door dash, you certain food is good at being door-dashed and certain food isn't. And I feel like Chinese food is like one of those that's a good Door Dash food.
SPEAKER_01And if you're one, if you didn't listen to our naughty uh like prep um podcast, the reason we door dash is because we just don't have time to go sit down and eat. We love the food in New Orleans. We we try to eat out as much as possible, but during the like height of the party days, it's just impossible for us to go on a Friday night and try to like fight Bourbon Street or anywhere close to it to get a table. It would be hours. And in this case, we had like, I think the parade was over. The parade didn't start till six. So we're talking about it's like 7:30 now. And we have to be downstairs around like 10. So we don't have a lot of time, you know, and like we're exhausted. We need to like physically rest our bodies, and not to mention, like when I'm out of the room, I almost have to be on from the moment I walk out because there's a lot of people talking to me and saying something, which I love, not complaining, but I need to like rest my face, you know. I need to like stop smiling for stop smiling, scroll on my phone, not have to think, you know. So that's kind of why we DoorDash. So we try to eat out, you know, like before and then like after the all these events.
SPEAKER_00I mean, I don't care if you're talking about like Swinger Society Secrets or Electric Pleasures or or these kind of events. Uh, even a lot of the you know, the the bliss cruises left clearly, you know, food's kind of built in, but you know, you only have like a two or three hour window between the day parties and the night parties. You take an hour plus to get ready. So you really only have like an hour to chill, eat, and all that.
SPEAKER_01And I'm a big like not really napper because my medication keeps me from napping, but like I'm a big like horizontal person. Like any any minor inconvenience, I need to go lie down.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, so we usually get about an hour to lay in the bed and eat, and then you usually hop up and start getting ready, and then um I usually post a TikTok or something while you're getting ready, and then I get up and get ready.
SPEAKER_01Yeah. So um Friday night was a glow night, which in all the years that we've been going to Naughty, I don't remember a glow night. Uh, so I was pretty excited about this. Um, we got ready. We had matching outfits. If you saw our TikTok or Instagram, I thought we looked pretty cute.
SPEAKER_00They were neon outfits. Oh, sorry. They were neon outfits, but they didn't glow that much.
SPEAKER_01Uh well, I think Naughty did what we did.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, they did.
SPEAKER_01There was not a whole lot of blacklights.
SPEAKER_00But even the couple times we were in the black lights, they didn't really seem to pop.
SPEAKER_01But yeah, I think they they could have done more black light, which is crazy because they have a ton, but yeah, ride.
SPEAKER_00If you listen to our Electric Pleasures, I think it was it Atlanta or Gulf Breeze, I think it was Chattanooga. Chattanooga, yeah. The last one, Chattanooga, yeah. We had a glow night, and then we brought a whole box of neon or uh black lights to put out for glow night, and we forgot. We just got busy and we forgot to put them out.
SPEAKER_01Just forgot.
SPEAKER_00And people were like, Your glow night wasn't very glowy. Well, Naughty had a glow night, and it wasn't very and their lights never they didn't put out additional bullets.
SPEAKER_01Or at least not that we saw that I saw that we saw. Um, but it also our outfits weren't super glow, but we looked cute, yeah. And I had a glow purse, which was really cool.
SPEAKER_02It was cool.
SPEAKER_01Um, it it was a great, it was a great night. The wifey staff came. So if you don't know, you know, I shopped for wifey back in the fall. My scene came out in February. And last year is where we met wifey and how like the whole discussion about me joining um them started. Last year they did like a whole like booth, the whole thing. This year they went a little bit more low-key. So they had what?
SPEAKER_00I feel like they went super low-key. I barely saw them the whole weekend.
SPEAKER_01Well, they had Serenity, yeah Cox, who's a you know, a really big porn star, and Jason Love, which again Yeah, I mean they brought out the celebrities for sure. But they just didn't host like a booth, they were just what they didn't even have a table.
SPEAKER_00I don't know what I saw.
SPEAKER_01But they had their recruiting team, so I think they were just walking around talking to people. If they saw people that kind of fit what they were looking for, they would strike up conversations.
SPEAKER_00They needed a static table that they should have put outside the club and like hung out the hour or so before.
SPEAKER_01Probably, but you know, yeah, not our problem.
SPEAKER_00But they are super nice, yeah. Yeah, so Serenity Cox is one of the nicest humans like on the planet.
SPEAKER_01She's from Canada, so yeah.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, so she's always saying thank you and and sorry. Uh and she's just very she's not what you'd think. She's not what you would think of a porn star. She is like that. She looks like a mom's door mom.
SPEAKER_01She looks like a very hot mom, you know, like in the best possible way. And I think that's what makes it more fun so she's dirty. Right. You know?
SPEAKER_00So uh and Jason Loves, super nice girls. Jason Loves looks like a porn star. Then I looked at that girl that he had with him, she's a huge porn star.
SPEAKER_01So and and and so was one of the other guys' uh girlfriend. She is a huge porn star. So there was quite a few me and Lacey don't know porn stars.
SPEAKER_00We don't. Yeah.
SPEAKER_01I watch porn every single day of my life, but I don't know anybody's name.
SPEAKER_00I do not. You watch way more porn than I do.
SPEAKER_01I do. That's I watch porn every day. Not for long. It doesn't take long. Um in the state that I live in, it's very hard to get porn. So I have to like go through like a whole fucking thing to get.
SPEAKER_00So that's she got ID verified just so she could watch porn.
unknownYeah.
SPEAKER_01And I still have to use like an authenticator app and like it's just you know it's a whole thing. It's a whole thing. Um but anyway, the party was great. Uh our friends, Big Sexy and his wife, had the like entire VIP on one side in the EDM room, like the whole week. Um, which was clutch because it kind of like raised you above the crowd, and it it was nice. It was like you could put your phone down, your purse down, your cup down. It was really nice.
SPEAKER_00So yeah, I felt a little bit like a mooch because we it's like one of the only times we didn't pay for a VIP and were in one basically the whole weekend. But also, that was kind of nice because usually we're the ones that pay the bill for you.
SPEAKER_01No, but I did tell him I was like, next year, do not pay for this whole thing. Yeah, I was like, let me help you. He was like, No, no, like for real though, let me help you.
SPEAKER_00Well, he's probably already bought it. That's the thing, is we're probably we're probably not on the ball enough because I bet you have to get that thing like the first day.
SPEAKER_01No, I was on the ball. I added it to my card. I'm not even gonna lie, I did, but I didn't know if everyone would be in there, and so I like I just didn't, and it was not cheap.
SPEAKER_00Did he get it?
SPEAKER_01Do you know for next year? Yeah, oh I they they just released this year's like they just released naughty this year's, like a month before. Gotcha, gotcha. Yeah, it's like a later thing. Um but no, I I just didn't know, you know, like if if it would work out now, I know, so next year I'll keep an eye out or I'll text him.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, that's a new, I think they've only been doing that for a couple years where they put those those uh raised platforms up there.
SPEAKER_01So next year, I'm gonna I'll miss I'll message him before. But if you're wondering, if you need if you're like one of those people that just like to have a space, highly recommend it. And in the top 40 room, it's tables. So like an EDM EDM room, you're kind of raised above everyone, which is kind of gives like a cool vibe. But top 40, you can just have an assigned table, which is also nice because you could put your stuff there and then you don't have to worry about it.
SPEAKER_00So yeah, it is nice to have a space that you know where you could sit down and put your stuff.
SPEAKER_01Yeah. So uh we partied for a while and had a great time. So I didn't I didn't talk about this earlier, but earlier in the day, I had received a Snapchat from one of our friends that was there, and the female, and she was like, Hey, do you know these two couples? Well, I'm not great at names. I'm gonna be honest with you. I'm like, maybe, I don't know. I'm like, are they here? And she's like, Yeah, you know, and she's so she sent me like a screenshot of them. I was like, Oh yeah, yeah. She was like, Well, they like casually mentioned that they were into y'all, and I thought, hey, let's just like let's be a matchmaker and make this happen, which listen, love her for this, you know, because we're not great at this, which is kind of crazy that we should be better at this than we are. So anyway, she was like, Do y'all want to play tonight? And I was like, Hell yeah, we do. You know, I well, I should obviously I consulted with Dan and he was like, Yeah. So I was like, Yeah, sure, yeah, let's do that. So at some point in the night, we were like chatting, and you and the one wife were like, you were you flirting with her because you didn't have a connection with her? Is that what it was?
SPEAKER_00Yeah, so this is an interesting play situation for us because normally when we go into play situations, it's all our friends. Yeah. Right. And and maybe there's like one new couple, but for the most part, it's all of our friends that we've known and we've played with.
SPEAKER_01And it's usually like we just kind of end up there. It's not like planned. Yeah.
SPEAKER_00In this situation, one of the couples was our friend, but we'd only really played with that that couple that we we've known them for years, but we I think we'd only play with them maybe one or two times. Ever.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, but we've been around them quite a few times. We've only played. I think we've only played one time.
SPEAKER_00And then the other two couples we'd never had. Yeah. Never played with them.
SPEAKER_01I don't I still don't remember their names. They're lovely.
SPEAKER_00They were very very lovely.
SPEAKER_01Um one only one ended up coming to the playroom. Or we didn't go to the playroom. We went to one of their rooms. So only one of the couples, I don't know where the other one was, but it was supposed to be three couples, right? No, four couples, four couples. You meet us, the girl that messaged us, and then the two couples. So that was the plan. It didn't end up going that way. So go ahead. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt.
SPEAKER_00No, so what I'm saying is this was a different situation. So you tell me, like, hey, the plan tonight is for all of us to have an orgy. And in my head, I'm thinking, like, well, I haven't even talked to like two of these girls. Like, I haven't even had a conversation with, like, not even, you know, or may maybe a brief one, but so I'm like, I should make a point to try to like that's really nice of you dance with them and kind of like get the, you know, see if there's some chemistry here, get the vibes going.
SPEAKER_01Like you knew they were hot.
SPEAKER_00Oh no, yeah. There was no doubt. I mean, they were well within my 80% rule, like by far. Yeah. Uh so that I wasn't concerned about that. I was just thinking, if we just walk into this room to fuck, and there's there's been no like warm-up for this, that might be awkward. So I was like, let me try to get some flirting going. Yeah.
SPEAKER_01Yeah. So like most of the night you were like making out with the one girl, or she was like in your lab.
SPEAKER_00It was like towards the end of the day.
SPEAKER_01Okay, well, it seemed like it, yeah. I mean, I'm not giving you shit.
SPEAKER_00No, it got pretty spicy towards the end.
SPEAKER_01Yeah.
SPEAKER_00Which I think it it ramped up though, about the right time.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, and well, and it kind of encouraged, let's make this happen. Because we went to play not super late. Yeah. Um, so yeah, it was decided we were going, what room we were going to. Tara got invited to go with us, which is good because you were walking her home. So we didn't want to leave her. We didn't want to leave her. So, yeah, so um we went and played in a room. So we never made it to the playroom, guys. This is our second year in a row that we did not make it to Naughty's playroom.
SPEAKER_00Well, those damn elevators, it's not worth it. Here's the problem is and this is not, I don't think it's Naughty Norland's fault.
SPEAKER_01It's just hotel technical.
SPEAKER_00Who wants to go? Because we would have had to go to our room. Yeah. So you have to which luckily we didn't need to fight the elevator to get to our room. Uh, but to our room, change, and then go get in line, wait 20, 30 minutes to get to, you know, like you're gonna lose people. Yeah, like that's never gonna happen. You know what I mean? So you would have to like go as a group and try to stick together and go, you know.
SPEAKER_01Well, and luckily, each time we played, somebody offered their room because like our room was trash. Like, I would weigh the line for an elevator before I fucked in our bed and got it all, you know, wet and and stuff. So luckily, both times someone offered.
SPEAKER_00So the orgy hosts, I mean, they had their beds covered with squirt blankets, they had water, they had like condoms, lube.
SPEAKER_01We had no squirt blanket, no water. Yeah, weapon. We used to be good at all this, and we've but listen, I would I would rather not have it because I don't I don't want to fuck in my room. I love everyone, but like I've got shit everywhere.
SPEAKER_00That's Lacey's not organized. I'm not organized anymore.
SPEAKER_01No, you know, you're only good at so many things. I'd rather just go to a playroom. Yeah, leave those sheets there.
SPEAKER_00No, we are generally a fuck in the playroom kind of couple.
SPEAKER_01It's been a while since we've played in a playroom.
SPEAKER_00It has been, yeah.
SPEAKER_01Yeah. So yeah, we had a nice little orgy. It was good.
SPEAKER_00It was very, very good.
SPEAKER_01Yeah.
SPEAKER_00Um, especially, you know, for people that hadn't had a lot of sex.
SPEAKER_01Everybody's dicks was hard. I think everybody used Trimax though.
SPEAKER_00Hey, there's there's a reason for that.
SPEAKER_01Yeah. Um, yeah, it was. I mean, is there anything you you so at the towards the end of it, you um and what the one girl that you hadn't played with in a year since for like a year, it'd been a little over a year. Y'all were just like going to town. And um we all kind of like pause to watch you. And what's funny is like late, we me and you got back to the room later on, and you were like, Was that was that too much?
SPEAKER_00Yeah. Because you were worried that well, and this is you know, an off-subject a little, this is more like probably a Tuesday talk conversation, but I do think, you know, you can be too much sometimes in Okay, but let's talk about it.
SPEAKER_01Someone, an ex-girlfriend, told you that you were too much.
SPEAKER_00She did, yeah.
SPEAKER_01So that fucked with your mind a little.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, well, I but I do think you want to be respectful, right?
SPEAKER_01Like, so No, no, absolutely, but I don't think you should like work, you should be able to have fun and not like overthink a situation. But you know what I'm saying?
SPEAKER_00Like, you don't want to like totally dick down somebody's wife if they're like struggling to get hard.
SPEAKER_01Nobody was struggling to get hard.
SPEAKER_00No, no, and I'm not saying that's with the situation, but what I'm just saying is like, and then like if everybody else seems like they're done and you keep fucking this girl, you know, like not to say, and we've talked, you know, everybody's like, what do you do if people finish early? And what you know, like no, you keep cheering you keep having fun, right? That that is the right answer, yeah. But sometimes I worry a little bit like am I being too much?
SPEAKER_01I did not feel like honestly, you were laying there and she was she was in control of that situation and having the best time ever. So no, I don't think you were too much. I actually it was it was pretty fucking hot to like sit back and watch. Yeah, I think I fuck like a couple times, like I did like a whole rotation.
SPEAKER_00Uh you definitely want to be good, you know. I I still need to do a little more work on my cardio, but you know, yeah, there's definitely times where you go into orgies and you're like, I want to fuck more, but I am fucking like I'm just gonna be able to do that.
SPEAKER_01And then you don't even start till like midnight or so.
SPEAKER_00Yeah. So I mean, being, you know, hit the gym guys be you know, get on that, get on that treadmill because you want to be able to maintain, you know, yeah, not just your dick, but your your cardio.
SPEAKER_01Yes. So that that was a great experience. So shout out to uh the matchmaker there, she knows who she is. Um, we appreciate the invite in making that happen because it wouldn't have happened had she not it is interesting.
SPEAKER_00So the only two or spoiler alert, this is the last time we had sex at Naughty New Orleans, but um, so the two times we essentially got recruited.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, which I love that. And I'm not a hundred percent sure had that not happened, if we would have ended up starting something ourselves, we would have fucked it in like maybe not that first night, but like the second night, we would have been like, okay, we've got to make something happen.
SPEAKER_00Well, the second night I was DJing though, so that that kind of fucked it up. Yeah, but we could have I I bet at least one of the nights we probably would have because we would have been like, Yeah, we need to do this, you know. Yeah, we would have. Uh it is nice when it's not when we get recruited.
SPEAKER_01The problem is that Naughty does take a lot out of us. I think the heat, the all day, the walking, the all-day parties, and then into the night, it's a little bit different than your like your typical party. We're all we're very much working, so it's very hard to fuck a lot at Naughty without just like committing to fucking. Like you have to be like, okay, we're doing this, you know?
SPEAKER_00Yeah.
SPEAKER_01Uh just because it's it's a lot.
SPEAKER_00Well, and then this time the hour wait to get to the playroom, you know, added another layer of like you being hesitant to go, you know. Yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_01So after that, we ended up at iHop once again, which was lovely.
SPEAKER_02Yeah.
SPEAKER_01Um, and then me and you both walked hair home this night because I was with you and it was just us three, and I didn't want to walk back to Bourbon Street by myself. So me and you walked her back and then came back together.
SPEAKER_00And that ended Friday night. All right. I think now it's perfect time to take a little break and hear from the partners and sponsors of the Swing Nation podcast. And then when we get back, we'll tell you all about the main event Saturday night. Yeah. Saturday dayslash night. Yes. All right, we'll be right back, guys.
SPEAKER_02Okay.
SPEAKER_01Dan, if someone is just recently joining the lifestyle and they don't really know where to begin, what do you recommend?
SPEAKER_00Well, the lifestyle, you know, it's 2025. And people are on the internet. They are and there just so happens to be lifestyle websites that are dedicated to people connecting in the lifestyle. Yes. SDC happens to be one of our favorites. Over three million users.

Lacey, one thing I don't leave home without when going to a swinger event is my ED medication.
SPEAKER_01That is correct.
SPEAKER_00Performance anxiety is 100% a real thing. Um, having sex in an orgy room with um a hundred people in there is way different than having sex at home in your bedroom.
SPEAKER_01It is.
SPEAKER_00Um, so I like to have what we call a little insurance policy and have some of that ED medication in my pocket. Um, shameless care is who I use for that. And they actually just came out with a new product called the Shameless Duo.
SPEAKER_02Yeah.
SPEAKER_00Which is a combination medicine that has Viagra and Cialis in it, so that one, you can be ready whenever, but also it's got that dose that you can take when you're, you know, as you're getting ready to go to the playroom and you need that to kick in.
SPEAKER_01Yeah.
SPEAKER_00So I love it. I mean, I used it at HEDO for the first time, and that that combination.
SPEAKER_01You're going to pretty much switch to that, haven't you?
SPEAKER_00That's basically what I use all the time. Yeah. Yeah. So if you're looking for ED medication, if you're new to the lifestyle uh and you're going to an event, you might want to get some and have it just handy in case you need it, kind of thing.
SPEAKER_01And the really cool thing about shameless care is they don't set you up on a recurring plan. So you're not going to get all of this ED medication that you have in your nightstand built up. When it's time that you need more, you'll get an email from them and they'll ask you, hey, are you ready for another round? And you can respond back. Yes, please refill it, or no, I'm good right now. Thank you. So it's really cool because you don't end up with all these extra pills and spend a bunch of money that you're not, you know, you don't need to spend.
SPEAKER_00Yeah. And my favorite part is you don't actually have to go into an office and talk to your family doctor or a military doctor. Um, you can do it all right online from the privacy of your home. Uh you just go to their website, you fill out some forms, the doctor reviews it, approves you, disapproves you, and you move on from there. So if you would like to get some medication, you can go to theswingnation.info, click on the little recommended apps and products, uh, scroll down to the shameless care icon, click on that, and that's going to take you over there. Uh, there's some discount codes there for you, so you can get a discount off your first order. But uh, I highly recommend if you're going to some events or parties, go get you some lifestyle insurance. All right, guys, check it out. All right, welcome back, welcome back. Thank you for listening to our sponsors. Lacey loves our sponsors.
SPEAKER_02I do.
SPEAKER_00Uh, okay, so when we left you, we had just finished fucking uh with our friends on Friday night in their room. Thank again, huge shout out to them, and thanks for the invite. And um we had some fun with the new couple that we had not played with before. So hopefully we see them again at another event uh and and get to kind of experience more of that. Um okay, and that brings us to Saturday. Yeah. So what do we do on Saturday?
SPEAKER_01So Saturday was a big day for us. Like we knew going into Saturday that this was probably gonna be our hardest day. We had agreed to shut down the party, but and and the DJ time was two to four. Which if you go back and listen to our last year's naughty, we kind of did the same thing. I think our the hours were a little different last year. So we we knew we were okay with doing that, but that that two to four, we didn't really think about it until like the week of and we're like shit, you know. So like we knew that Saturday was going to be a very long day. So we were like mentally prepared going into it. So we started our party. So we started our day with we were hosting our party at Boot Scoot and Rodeo at noon. Um, but you wanted to be there at like 11.
SPEAKER_00Yeah. So maybe this is the military in me that I I don't like being late. I don't like feeling rushed. I like to be prepared and I like to have plenty of time to set up, do what I need to do.
SPEAKER_01I was ready, I was done by like 10 minutes after we got there. And I was literally, I was so exhausted, I was resting on this table. But you know what? I showed up. I did what he needed, and I didn't even bitch at you that much, even though I was like, this is ridiculous.
SPEAKER_00And this probably is the military in me, but I'm like, well, what if you know, what if we show up and then but they're late? Like, what if, you know, I don't know.
SPEAKER_01Then we stand outside.
SPEAKER_00Well, yeah, but then then you'd be in a big hurry. You know, at least you're there and you know they're not there, so you can get on the phone, you start calling people.
SPEAKER_01It's fine, it's fine. But we got there at 11.
SPEAKER_00I like to have a plan, a contingency plan, and then a backup plan to the plan, which is funny because it's like Lacey is just like YOLO.
SPEAKER_01Like, but he you pick and choose things that you want to, so it's like very hard to follow. Other things like you know, like what we have to do tomorrow. You had no plan with that at all.
SPEAKER_00Well, that's true.
SPEAKER_01We just got in a fight about something before this. About we have something that's paperwork though. That's we have stuff to do tomorrow that he is not prepared for, and I we we got a little tiff before we podcast. Yeah, married life. Okay, so anyway, we hosted at Boots Cootin Rodeo, um, quite the different vibe from the beach. Um, good party. Good party. I enjoy it's more of like a meet and greet, it's more where we can like chat. I will say you stood on the stage the whole party.
SPEAKER_00You were getting annoyed with me.
SPEAKER_01Well, because people were there to talk to us, and you were not hosting games, you were just standing there, and a couple times I'm like, hey, you went. I think you were tired.
SPEAKER_00I was tired.
SPEAKER_01I'm like, hey, can you? I so was I was fucking tired too. Like, I can't, I I am the antisocial one. Yeah, I need you to come off the stage and be a part of this with me.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, no, um, so our boot scooting rodeo party, you know, this is a country bar, and it's like a country line dancing bar. It's like it's country of a country bar as a it's like a Nashville bar, which is not Dan and Lacey, like we're more EDM, like you know, crazy dance, you know, like ravey kind of people. Um, but it was the first party that we got offered to host from Naughty New Orleans, and now it's kind of become like a tradition. And so I don't want to give it up. Um, but and I do like it. Like I think it's a good the bar is very unique. Uh it's in a good spot. You know, you can do you can do the topless bull riding. Uh, usually we get line dancing going, and the girls are like line dancing topless. Uh the bar has all these cool like pair areas for pictures and photos.
SPEAKER_01It's a great bar. Yeah, it's just not. I think we've like kind of tried to make it into like an EDM glow ravey thing.
SPEAKER_00We did that the first year.
SPEAKER_01Did you see the flower this year?
SPEAKER_00Oh, I don't know.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, we have glow clothes on. Yeah. I think we need to change up our approach.
SPEAKER_00Like embrace the country of it.
SPEAKER_01No, I think we need to like last year I tried to embrace the country. Remember, I wore like a blue jean dress. I think we just need to lean more into like meet and greet type vibes. Yeah.
SPEAKER_00Um, because it's To me, it's more like a drinkery party than it is like a beach party.
SPEAKER_01Correct.
SPEAKER_00It is, yes. But and that's okay. And honestly, I really think, and I don't know if you know Bob is doing this on purpose, but I really think those noon to three parties should be more like drinkery, meet and greet type parties. And those three to six parties, or yeah, those three to six parties should be the all right, let's because you know, when you come in at noon, you just woke up, you're tired, you're hungover, you know, you're not ready to like balls the wall, party, and raise. You know what I mean? Like it takes you a little while to warm them up.
SPEAKER_01So I think I agree. Yeah, I just we are definitely the three to six that fits our vibe.
SPEAKER_00It's more on brand for us.
SPEAKER_01It's hard to come off the beach like being so us, which it wasn't us. You know what I mean? Like, we weren't the hosts, you were just the MC. That seems like it fits our brand.
SPEAKER_00But it was, I mean, it was our vibes, our music, our games. Like, you know, it was it was that was more on brand for what we traditionally do when we do swinger parties.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, yeah. But I mean, listen, I had a great time. I really did. Um, it was a lot of fun. I got uh we get to talk to people. Uh it it was a I enjoyed it. I had hats out for people to wear, and we had, you know, just like we gave away some stuff. You didn't play a lot of games this time because everyone was just talking and dancing, and you felt like that would interrupt.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, the problem I think with and it's not a problem, but there's the stage, and that's kind of over by the bar, but then the dance floor is almost like separate from the stage in its own area. And this time, uh other unlike previous parties that we've done there, everybody went to the dance floor, and that kind of became the central party area. So I felt like if I played a game up on the stage, it would like pull people off the dance floor. I think it was fine, and I was like, I don't want to like people are down there dancing and having fun. Like, I don't want to pull from that. So I think we played like one game early on, and I gave away some merch, and I was like, I'm just gonna, you know, I played all the games at the beach, so I was like, well, let's let it ride.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, no, it was fine. I thought it was good. I enjoyed it. The wifey team came again. We got to watch Serenity and Jason Love ride the bull. Which is funny, yeah. Serenity was topless, it was hot. All the other porn stars got to, and it's like everybody stopped. Because, like, so they have a TV above the dance floor where you can watch them. So we got to um to watch it from downstairs. So it was pretty cool.
SPEAKER_02Yeah, yeah, it's cool.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, so um, yeah, it was a great, it was a great party. I had a good time. The staff there, everybody's wonderful. We because we've been doing it for so many years now, it's super easy for us to come in and kind of um. We know the drill. Yeah, yeah. We don't need an hour, but maybe 15 minutes.
SPEAKER_0030 minutes, 45 minutes.
SPEAKER_01Listen, I'll take what I can get at this point. But it was a good party. So after it was over, we were starving because we got there at breakfast time, you know. So we went across the street. I was trying to be a smart ass. I think so we got there at breakfast time.
SPEAKER_0011 o'clock?
SPEAKER_01I'm just giving you we left uh the hotel at like 10 30, 10 15.
SPEAKER_00Oh my goodness.
SPEAKER_01Um, but so we've we went and found a pizza place, had a slice of pizza. So then you were like, hey, let's poke our head into the secrets party because like we usually try to go and support our friends that host party. The problem is, is like Bliss was there hosting parties, secrets, and we had not been able to get to any of them because it's just like our schedules didn't align. So you were like, let's poke our head in and see secrets and say hello.
SPEAKER_00Well, it's actually, I mean, it's it's great. We've formed good relationships with a lot of other people in the industry at this point, and it kind of seems like it's all our friends now that are throwing parties at Naughty New Orleans. So it was us, Bliss Cruise, Secrets, uh Um iOS Connection. You know, like these are all people that we've you know interacted with and kind of uh form relationships with. So yeah, after our party, both Bliss Cruise and Secrets had parties going on. So we're like, well, let's go, let's go support our friends.
SPEAKER_01So we went into Secrets, and so Secrets Party was at the Rezu, which is another really good club. It's probably up there with the beach as far as bars um on Bourbon Street. So we we were just gonna poke our head in. Yeah, just like hey poke our heading, how is it going? We love y'all. We stayed the whole fucking time. We ended up on stage, we were passing out shots, giving I don't know what happened. People, I don't know. You can explain to me how this happened.
SPEAKER_00Well, it it's weird to me. So, this is what I mean. We walked in, and here's the thing normally when you walk into these bars, you can't get to the front. Like they're they're crammed in, they're packed in. So, like to get to the front of the bar to the stage area would be difficult.
SPEAKER_02Yeah.
SPEAKER_00This is gonna sound like I'm being braggy or an asshole, but people just moved out of our way. Like we walked in and people just like cleared a pathway for us to walk to the front of the stage.
SPEAKER_01Well, not only us, it was all of our friends.
SPEAKER_00And I don't know if they thought like they just saw us and they just assumed, like, oh, they're here to be part of like they're probably hosting or they're probably but people literally like moved out of the way and let us go to the front.
SPEAKER_01That's a little braggy, but he's not lying.
SPEAKER_00That's what happened. I'm not it didn't like we weren't like excuse us, let us like people just saw us and then just kind of like stepped aside and we're like, okay.
SPEAKER_01So we went right to the front, and then you know, they were I don't know how it happened, but somehow we kind of took over secrets, they allowed us to take over their party. I don't know. It was a group F.
SPEAKER_00It was kind of a Swinger Society takeover of uh Secrets Hideaway.
SPEAKER_01Uh uh Burby Street Party.
SPEAKER_00But no, they were up there, uh James. So if you don't know, we talked a little bit about James last uh episode, right? And I was talking about how he how you know I think he's misunderstood and how personally I think he's a great person and really loves the this community and the lifestyle.
SPEAKER_01And his son was there, yeah.
SPEAKER_00Well, this is the prime example because I don't know how much money he spent on shots, but he basically bought shooters, so those little vial shot glass things for the entire bar.
SPEAKER_01Fireball and Jaeger. And we like we could not give them away fast enough.
SPEAKER_00So this is how it started. Me and you, you know, clear the Red Sea and get to the front of the bar. And then Secret staff is up on the stage, right? And they're I think what they're trying to do, because they were giving out secrets t-shirts all week. And and I'm pretty sure on the flyer it said, Hey, if you show up to our party with a secret shirt on, you get a free shot, right? I think that was the I didn't get that memo.
SPEAKER_01I was just giving shots away.
SPEAKER_00I think that was the idea of this. But I look and there's 10 secret staff members on stage. Every one of them has an entire flight of these shooters.
SPEAKER_01Yeah.
SPEAKER_00And they don't even have a free hand to like give it to somebody, right? So they're they're kind of trying to give it to people with t shirts, but they have like A thousand shots, and they're giving like one away every five minutes, right? So it's like this is not gonna work, like this is not the logistics here. Um, so I don't know. I was like, here, let me help you. And I got on the stage.
SPEAKER_01Dan has a bad habit of taking over situations. Listen, it's like the leader in him.
SPEAKER_00It's probably that military thing.
SPEAKER_01Some people might hate it.
SPEAKER_00And these are our but these are our friends. We know all these people, they're friends.
SPEAKER_01We, you know, I love that it's like kind of a funny thing for me to watch him try to not take over, but then somehow do it. Of course, they were like, please help us, you know. So some Dan started giving something out.
SPEAKER_00Then I started getting then we so me and Lacey end up on stage and we are just passing out these shots, not to people in t-shirts, to anybody who wants anybody that will take one of these shots out of my hand can have one.
SPEAKER_01We're passing them to pass them to people. We're like, pass this to the guy in the back.
SPEAKER_00We pass it to somebody like, no, I don't want to. I can't take you another shot. It's like just pass it back. Just listen, just be passive.
SPEAKER_01After my like third fireball shot, I was like, We're not going back to the room. Keep in mind, we know that we have to be up until at least 4 a.m. Like on, makeup on, hair done, raving until so I look at him and I was like, We're not going back to the room. And you were like, We're not going back to the room. Let's so take another shot. We are like down in fireball, which I don't know how I didn't get sick or anything, but like I drank way too much.
SPEAKER_00Well, and then that's the problem is because we're passing out all these shots. People are like, oh, do one with me, or oh, let's take one together, or you know. And so I don't know how many shots I took, I don't know how many shots you took, I don't know how many shots we gave away, but it got it went from like wild party to like wild and crazy part. Like James had the idea, like he got that entire bar drunk, and they were all crazy.
SPEAKER_01At some point, I had no shirt on. They were people were taking shots down my boobs. Like, if you know me, I don't normally do that because I feel like if I let one person do it, then like it's not it's rude of me to be like, no, you can you can do it, but you can.
SPEAKER_00But you were in the mind friend, you probably would have let just about the whole bar take a shot off your boobs at that point.
SPEAKER_01Maybe. Not not not quote, not quite there, but like I let a couple people and another friend of ours, you recruited her, and so she's we're all like covered in the book.
SPEAKER_00Now we have several girls with their boobs out. I'm pouring shots under their boobies as like strangers in the crowd are taking shots off of their boobies. It's getting kind of crazy.
SPEAKER_01It was wild. And then at one point, one of the secrets girls said she wanted to crowd surf.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, Nick came to me with one of I wish I knew her name.
SPEAKER_01The sexy her name is um Lace. L-A-C-E. L-A-C-E. So Nick comes to me, he goes Which they had brought their sexy squad. So if you know anything about secrets, you know their sexy squad. That's who we were talking about, some of the members of the sexy squad.
SPEAKER_00So Nick's like, hey, do you think we can get she's like he's like Lace wants the crowd surf? Do you think we could get it? You think we could get the crowd to do it? And I was like, fuck yeah, we could. And if you know Razuz, it's like there's a bar on either side, right? So if you we were standing up on stage. So if you're standing on the stage, you look to the left, there's a bar to the far left of uh or uh an actual bar, like where they serve alcohol on the far left, and then on the opposite side, there's a bar on the far right. But the bar is like elevated and then it drops down to the dance floor and then it raises back up to the bar on the other side, right? So you're kind of it's like a dropped-in dance floor that's in the center with the stage, and the two bars are raised on either side of the bar, right? So I look at Nick and I said, get her to go get on one of those bars, and we'll have her surf across the entire bar, right? So she stands on the bar and then she falls into the crowd. They pass her across the bar, but not only across, they have to drop her, she has to drop down a level into the dance floor and then get raised back up a level to get out the other side.
SPEAKER_01It was wild.
SPEAKER_00Now you're right, she's all of like five one and probably weighs like a hundred pounds, if that, soaking wet. Yeah. Um, so she's probably pretty easy to pop past.
SPEAKER_01Yeah.
SPEAKER_00But as they're passing her, I'm like yelling, like, put your hands up, don't drop her.
SPEAKER_01Like, everybody did really well.
SPEAKER_00They did a good job. Um, so she crowds her from one bar to the other bar across the whole thing. Yeah.
SPEAKER_01Uh other things I want to mention, uh, so they had like their whole staff, like as far as like their CFO is there, James Jr., which is his son. Uh, and then the uh what's the other Jay, who runs a sales, I don't know his exact title, but he basically handles the sales of secrets too. So they're all there. Yeah, and you decide to get the CFO's wife drunk.
SPEAKER_00I kept giving her shots.
SPEAKER_01She's we've we've met her several times, they were on Bliss Cruise, and she is precious. I mean, adorable. And like as sweet and pure as they come. And every time you see her, you're giving her shots, and she is just, she's like, Oh my god, it feels like collins.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, at one point he kind of gave me a look like, knock that shit off. I was like, okay. She was like, I feel like I'm not sure. Which I get because I have I know guys have got you drunk.
SPEAKER_01Yeah.
SPEAKER_00And listen, I'm all about it, but there is a line where like when I said you got her drunk, I think you gave her maybe three shots.
SPEAKER_01Like it wasn't.
SPEAKER_00It wasn't crazy. No, I wasn't like, yeah.
SPEAKER_01But it probably, she's probably like me, it doesn't take much, but she was precious. She was like, This is the best time I've ever had. And I mean, he was just crying. Every time I looked at him, he was just like, Oh my god.
SPEAKER_00Yeah. Um they were amazing.
SPEAKER_01Yeah. So we gave out all this, all the the they had I don't know how many fucking shirts they brought, but no, they had t-shirts, they had sunglasses, they had I don't know cups, rubber duckies, like so. Then they their their game or their thing was wet t-shirt. Wet t-shirt contest. So they had 20 girls in her, which wow, that's a fucking lot of girls.
SPEAKER_00I could tell it's your first time throwing a game on stage.
SPEAKER_01It's not their first time, trust me. So anyway, a lot of girls came up. They did one round, and then somehow James got the mic and was like, all the girls get four nights free. Right.
SPEAKER_00So they did this wet t-shirt contest, and the idea is whoever wins the wet t-shirt contest gets a four free four-day weekend at Secrets, you know, which that's you know, 1500 bucks or something at least. So, like, that's a pretty good prize, you know. And then the idea is you had to have a secrets, the the secrets t-shirts were white. And and then they had 20 of these rubber ducks that had secrets logos on them, right? And so if you had a t-shirt, the girls had to get the t-shirts and the rubber duck, and if you had one of each, you could get on stage to participate, right? And they threw these rubber ducks out into the crowd, right? Uh, so all these girls get up and they do this wet t-shirt contest. It it was more of like a get naked and wet t shirt contest. Like they had like a baby pool, yeah. There was vaginas and asses and titties. It wasn't just t-shirts, but uh you know, most of the clothes came off at some point, and then they had these baby pools, and they're spraying these girls down with like fire water things, like a pump like water things.
SPEAKER_01Bottles of water, right?
SPEAKER_00So all these girls go and they dance and it's all gray, and then it ends. And I'm like, how are you gonna pick a winner? Like, this is like you know, like this is chaos. And I don't know how many shots James had done at this point in time, uh, but probably a few. And so he gets on the microphone and he's like, I don't think we can pick a winner out of these girls. You all get a free four-day weekend.
SPEAKER_01And they did, they all all 20 of those girls got it. And then I think he said everybody here gets a free two-not stay or something. I don't know how, I don't know how we're supposed to cash that in. I I didn't listen enough to so I I don't know.
SPEAKER_00If you basically, if you went to the secrets party, you got some shit for free.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, don't I don't know how you cashed it in there? Right.
SPEAKER_00And then after the wet t-shirt contest, they still had like piles of t-shirts, they still had piles of sunglasses, they had all these rubber duckies, they had beach balls. So we were like giving them away, and and they're like starting to pack it up. And I'm like, Do you want to just give that stuff away? And they're like, Yeah, do you think we could do that? I'm like, fuck these people will take anything, yeah. So we just start grabbing.
SPEAKER_01So I'm like throwing sunglasses, I hit a few people in the head. I mean, uh it was it was it was fun, it was a it was a really good time. I had a blast.
SPEAKER_00So we just gave away all of that shit.
SPEAKER_01Um which I get, I wouldn't want to bring it back either.
SPEAKER_00No, no, yeah, because what I mean, you're not gonna use it next year, like you know.
SPEAKER_01So we left a little bit before it ended, probably like 30 minutes or so.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, so it's starting to wrap up. We've we've got the prizes, we've given everything away, and I'm like, hey, you know, bliss we've been here the whole time. We were just gonna peek our head in, and then we're gonna peek our head in at the blue screws party. I'm like, let's go over to the bliss cruise party, say hi to Russell and Vicky, and just kind of see how their party's going. Um, so we left Secrets, walked literally across the street. They were at the swamp, which is right next door.
SPEAKER_01Um and it was a uh phone party. A phone party, yeah. And it was not near as as hyped as the secrets, but still fun. Um, but it was it was pretty calm. Uh at that point.
SPEAKER_00I mean, but it was probably wrapping up too.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, just like yeah. Um, but we got to say hello and and and speak to everybody and all the things.
SPEAKER_00But it was packed in there too. I mean, it was pretty busy.
SPEAKER_01Oh, yeah, it was very packed. Yeah. So while we were in there saying hello, I noticed that I saw uh another wifey girl in there. Well, I thought I was like, is that because there's like you know, there's so many wifey people now. I mean, they come out with like one a week, and there was one, I was like, I think that's that, like her name on um Instagram is the country housewife. I'm like, that looks like housewife or hot wife, hot wife, I think. Yeah, I keep saying housewife. Um, I was like, I think that's her, but I didn't know, and so I didn't say anything. And then we were like, we only were there for like maybe 20 minutes. Like we kind of came in, said hello, and I danced a little, and some of our friends kind of followed in and they danced, and then we were like, I was like, we have we have to go. Like, we we've got to rest. So we ended up going back to the room shortly after that. They ended up being there because I saw that on Instagram later, and I got to meet her, which was fun. Um super nice, so nice, super hot. Yeah, um, so yeah, so we came back after both parties. We came back to the room, rested, had dinner. We did not have P.F. Chains this night. I think we had we had chicken.
SPEAKER_00I think I was like P. Chains, and you're like, no.
SPEAKER_01I was like, I can't do it anymore.
SPEAKER_00We did chicken wings or something.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, I can't.
SPEAKER_00I don't remember.
SPEAKER_01Uh yeah, we rested. Uh we went out a little later this night because we knew we were gonna be up. So I think when I say later, it was like 10, 10, 15. So the theme on Saturday night every year at Naughty is Marty Girl. So it's supposed to be a masquerade. We just we don't do the masquerade part because that seems like a lot of work.
SPEAKER_02Yeah.
SPEAKER_01Um my outfit was long sleeve. Didn't really think so. When I ordered it, I thought it was like a sheer, it was a little bit thicker than I planned, but um, I knew as soon as I put the outfit on, I was like, I'm gonna die. And that's it. Well, you put it on and you started like complaining, you're like, oh, it's too, and I'm like, you know you don't like like it was a full neck like thing and it was long sleeve, and I'm like, Lacey, we've been doing this long enough, you know that's I get pretty overstimulated, pretty easy at swinger parties, so I've kind of learned over the years to not put as much, but I also like being extra and have all the accessories and all this stuff, so I'm having to find a balance, but I guess when I tried it on at home, it just didn't even dawn on me that that would be an issue. Um, but I knew that I'm not gonna be in this outfit for a whole long time. Um but we did, we went, uh, we took pictures and then we got to meet the country um hot wife, she was lovely, and her husband.
SPEAKER_00And she ended up in the up in the VIP with us in our own.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, and and we Secrets hosted the EDM room this night, and it they did a great job. Um they had they bring several DJs and they all killed it this whole week.
SPEAKER_00They had uh Infinite was there, uh who else was there? Um James DJ'd.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, and then uh And James's girlfriend, I don't know if she has a DJ name, I'm assuming she does.
SPEAKER_00She does, yeah, I can't remember.
SPEAKER_01Um she's been learning how to DJ, and so she hopped on a couple of times throughout the weekend with him. So I think she got up there once.
SPEAKER_00Oh yeah, Direct is the other he's one of my favorite secrets DJs. Yeah, and we have this kind of this thing when we DJ, we give each other fireball. So I had to go get some fireball shots and bring it up to him so that he could. Yeah, I think after he's better when after a few shots of fireball. He turned it up in there, though. It was a good thing. A great party.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, it was a really good party. Um like so and we had I get at midnight is kind of when you wanted to to transition to the after party, right? Is that how it was?
SPEAKER_00Well, no, so my set was two to four. Yeah. Uh and so I was like, hey, maybe at like midnight, like let me go back to the room. You know, I don't know if I changed or I don't think I did, but I like just chill out for a little bit and then you know, I'll head down to the, you know, like I want to show up like 30 minutes ahead of time before my set to kind of you know figure out what the vibes are, like what's going on, you know, like you know, I don't you don't want to show up like two minutes before you're set, you know. So um, but I I think we ended up staying longer than I think we had planned on.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, like I I think I actually went back earlier, took that outfit off because I couldn't handle it. And then we came back, and then I thought you had left. And then like I you were like, I'm leaving, and then I kept finding you. You were with a girl, I don't know who it was.
SPEAKER_00Sucked into the party, yeah. Yeah. Um, I think I tried to leave at like one, and I I don't think I ended up leaving until like 1.30. And I don't think I got downstairs until just before uh my set came on, but uh it ended up being all right. Yeah, um, yeah, but the EDM room was really fun that night. Secrets crushed it, and then yeah, it was just it was fun. All right, yeah. So eventually, I don't know, it was like one, one thirty. I ended up going back to the room, getting my USBs and stuff, and you know, just chillaxing for a minute and then heading down to the after party. So I think they called it after glow. And if you don't know, that was in the downstairs ballroom. So if like you come down the escalators there in the Aster, at the very bottom there's a ballroom, and they use that ballroom. I think they they do different live music in there. It's you know, uh it's part of the area where they where you in process, you know, where you check in when you first get there and stuff like that. But they had that closed off, and that was the after hours room this year. Last year it was they called it the speakeasy, and it was up in some of the suites in the hotel. And the last year, uh it was pretty busy for like the after parties. Yeah, this year, almost every time we had gone past the after party, it was dead in there.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, so we were. I mean, like, I don't know if you were, I was a little worried that it was not gonna be uh so if you listen to our last year's Naughty New Orleans, it was pretty epic. And all year long, we have been trying to recreate that.
SPEAKER_00It's almost like we've been waiting for it. We've been like, all right, this year, Naughty New Orleans, the after party, it's gonna be crazy, just like last year.
SPEAKER_01It was just something that's really hard for me to explain. It was just like epic. So we were very excited, and so as the week had gone on, we we'd poke our head in and be like, what's gonna happen? You know, the ceilings were higher, um the broom was bigger, the room was bigger, last year they had that um, I don't know what you call it, but where they would they put the images on the wall, yeah. Which you've always been like, it's not necessary. I fucking disagree. Yeah I thought it made it a whole vibe in there last year. They didn't have that this year. I mean, they had lights. I'm not, you know, it's not what it was.
SPEAKER_00Last year it was also BYOB because it wasn't in the ballrooms, so you could bring your own alcohol. This year, it was part of the ballrooms, and it was you had to buy the alcohol. So they had a bar set up in the room.
SPEAKER_01If you want my honest opinion, I liked last year's better. I do get that it was like kind of hard to find, but that also was kind of the fun of it. Um so anyway, we were worried. Let's you know, just to kind of sum that up, we were a little worried.
SPEAKER_00Yeah. Um, so before I left the EDM room, I went around to everybody. Yeah, all of our friends. And I'm like, 2 a.m. after party.
SPEAKER_01You were like, you have go fuck now. So that way you can, I mean, like everybody.
SPEAKER_00I went to everybody. I'm like, you better be there. If we're friends, you better be there. You better be there.
SPEAKER_02Yeah.
SPEAKER_00And then Bob comes up to me from Naughty, New Orleans, and and he's like, Hey, uh, I'm gonna let DJ Sunshine keep going up here in the EDM room from from two to three. And I was like, Bob, that's my you're stepping on my dick. I think I literally said, Bob, you're stepping on my dick. Like, part of my plan is this the EDM room up, you know, the so the ballrooms upstairs on the second floor close at 2 a.m., right? So what I'm hoping is, well, as everybody filters out of those ballrooms to go to leave, they're gonna have to come down that escalator. They're gonna see our party. Yeah, so if I can get all of our friends in there and get a party going a little bit, we'll suck everybody in, right? So then when he says he's not closing the ballroom, he's gonna keep it going. I'm like, well, there goes my whole plan. Like now they're just gonna stay up there, and it's gonna be hard to draw everybody down.
SPEAKER_01We love Sunshine. So, like, and he's in a major thing. Nothing against him, yeah.
SPEAKER_00And in kudos, he's always like wants to do the afters. He always he'll always he's all about the party and the vibes, and he wants to keep it going. So, like, no, no hate on him. I was just in my head, like, well, shit, if you keep these ballrooms going, it's gonna be hard for us to get the party going down there, right? Uh, so that's why I was like, Bob, you're stepping on my dick. He's like, No, y'all, you'll be okay. And I'm like, Come on, man, don't do that. And he did it, he ended up he did it, he kept that ballroom open.
SPEAKER_01Uh, but he he was right. You you you you didn't have to worry because uh sunshine ended up coming down and was like everybody left.
SPEAKER_00They closed him early and he came down and hung out, and so yeah, I mean so that party kicked off at two o'clock, and shout out to all our friends because that ballroom went from dead ass empty downstairs to fucking pack in like 10 minutes, 15 minutes.
SPEAKER_01So, can you do you wanna um uh tell everybody your little secret?
SPEAKER_00My little secret. Yeah, I don't know what's my little secret.
SPEAKER_01You snuck a DJ in.
SPEAKER_00Oh well, yes, I did. So, okay, first let me start. So I get there and go to get on the decks, and these decks are the the CDJ three three thousands that I don't know how to use, right? I've only DJ'd them on them once before, and it was two nights before up in the ballroom. So me and Justin, the plan, this this after hour set was supposed to be me and Justin doing a back-to-back, right? So I plug, you know, there's this DJ there, he's like, You guys got it? We're like, Yeah, we're good. I plug my USB in. And then like some of the buttons aren't working, and I'm like, I don't know what to do because I'm not familiar with this equipment. So I'm like half panicking, trying to get the music going. Justin plugs his, he plays off a laptop because he's more of like a club DJ and he likes to have his deep, you know, and he plugs his laptop in and it's like drivers not found, like so. His laptop's not working. Oh no, so like I plug my music in and my shit's not working. So there was like, I don't know if it was obvious to you, but I had no idea to right now. Like two or three minutes of us getting the music going was like us panicking.
SPEAKER_01Okay, so I could tell, okay, so the DJ that he snuck in is filthy frequency. So if you've heard us talk about him, he he he plays at EP, he's played at Swinger City, he's very like deep. Uh I don't dub dubstep, yeah. So anyway, I could see his face, and I I thought something was wrong. I I I I didn't know what you just said, I had no idea. I thought he was just very nervous. No, and so what ended up happening is every DJ that DJ'd ended up in this room. So my understanding was filthy frequency was supposed to start, and but I looked up there, and that that's just me kind of, and there's like 15 DJs over there, you know, and I'm exaggerating. There's probably like eight. Yeah, but I'm like, why isn't he starting? You know, so I like I thought that was what was happening.
SPEAKER_00So the plan was that I had this is the unofficial plan. Yeah, you know, so on the the schedule, it has me and for that two-hour set two to four, it's got me and um Justin. Justin going back to back. And I and so Filthy Frequency is a dubstep DJ. We, you know, was not on the schedule, was not approved DJ, so to speak. But I was like, I'm gonna sneak him in there for like the last 30 minutes. Yeah, and like just let him like blow the lid off for like the last 30 minutes that makes more sense, yeah. Of this set, right? But then me and Justin try to jump on, my shit's not working, his shit's not working. I get a song going, but I can't transition it to the other decks. And then luckily, like you said, all the DJs just showed up. So Sereno and uh you know, was there at first, yeah. And so he's a real DJ and he knows how to use the equipment. I'm like, Serena, what the hell? So he helps me like get the buttons adjusted so that my tracks all sync up and stuff.
SPEAKER_01Well, and B Smooth was there, which and he like MC'd the whole thing and he killed it. Right. So he was like the hype man.
SPEAKER_00I get my music going, right? And then B Smooth is, I'm like, you know, so their other DJs are there. I'm like, hey, you know, we can get this going. And if everybody just wants to jump in, go for it. And and and B Smooth's like, well, do you mind if I MC and just do the hype man stuff? He's like, I don't even care about DJ. And he's like, Y'all do your thing. And I was like, okay. And then I'll like talk to the lighting guy. I'm like, hey, you got a microphone? He's like, nah, I ain't gonna like right. I'm I don't have one. And B Smooth is like, I got one in my room, I'll be right back. So he literally disappears, goes to his room, comes back with a microphone, and then plugs that thing in. And then he starts like MCing and being the hype guy, which he's amazing at way better than I am.
SPEAKER_02He killed it.
SPEAKER_00So yeah, for like the first hour, me and Justin go back to back. We get the room like just going good. Uh, and then we let some of the other DJs jump in. So I know uh James jumped in from Secrets, uh uh his girlfriend jumped in for a while, a couple of the other DJs. Um uh what's his name? Uh House the House Daddy, uh, he jumped in.
SPEAKER_01Um Sunshine was there. Did he play or was he just hanging out?
SPEAKER_00I think he he finished upstairs and then he just came and hung out. I don't think I don't think he jumped on the decks. It's hard to tell. We were all jumping in and off. So we were.
SPEAKER_01So who bought the bottle of I don't know.
SPEAKER_00So here's what so when uh Bob, who's one of the owners of New Orleans, told me that he was leaving Sunshine DJing, uh, he's like, no, you're gonna be okay. And I'm like, all right, Bob, get me a bottle. And he's like, huh? And I'm like, last year we had a bottle of patron we were passing around. The DJs were I'm like, that's it the vibe. I'm like, can you get me a bottle? And he's like, All right, I'll get you a bottle. So when we showed up downstairs, there was a bottle of Patron just sitting on the floor underneath the DJ booth. That's a I assume that came from Bob. I don't know where I don't know if like maybe Justin snuck it in. I don't know if one of the other DJs snuck it in or if it was from Bob, but there was a bottle of Patron under the DJ booth.
SPEAKER_01I didn't know. For some reason, I thought Big Sexy might have bought it because it was being patent, like he was drinking out of it.
SPEAKER_00I don't know where it came from. I think it came from Bob.
SPEAKER_01Oh, that was nice of him.
SPEAKER_00Yeah.
SPEAKER_01Baby, you were demanding.
SPEAKER_00Well, no, I think a little bit.
SPEAKER_01She'd probably take Zoom. Like, sorry. I snuck a DJ on, and uh you made you give me a short.
SPEAKER_00So anyway, the party went from zero to friggin' crazy hype. I mean, everybody was jumping. The whole, you know, so it was just a little stage in there, you know, and the whole stage was like rocking back and forth to the point where like we were holding on to like the DJ controller and the table so it wouldn't flip over.
SPEAKER_01Um filthy frequency, y'all all did great, but of course, and then towards the end, he freaking killed it. Frequency. And what's crazy is there's a lot of people that go to Naughty that don't come to like Electric Pleasures and EP or in Swinger City, but we are friends with them, we see them all the time. And they were like, Who the fuck is this guy? You know, and they were like going crazy. I mean, you know, he is always so nervous, but then he kills it. Well, and here's the other thing.
SPEAKER_00So he's always nervous about playing at Electric Pleasures, he had never played on the CDJs. Oh so this is his first time ever playing on CDJs, and it's at Naughty in New Orleans with just you know 400 people packed into this ballroom all going bananas, like and he had never DJ'd before.
SPEAKER_01He so the just like a little backstory on him, he would come to events, like we'd seen him at Splash, we've seen him at Seek. We always saw him DJing in his room, right? You know, and then I guess you you struck up a friendship with him, and then when we started Let Your Pleasures, you asked him to DJ. Is that how the story goes?
SPEAKER_02Basically, yeah, yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_01And so he's like the and I swear y'all, he is a star. If you've never seen him in person, I highly recommend it. He's so good and so humble and so sweet, and his wife is adorable, and I just I love them so much.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, yeah. So when we met him, he yeah, like you said, he he played at Secrets a lot, and his room would get packed, and there'd you there'd be a little after party like in his room, but he had never you know played out at a public menu in an event before. Uh, and so when we started Electric Pleasures with the idea of EDM kind of being, you know, he's a dubstep DJ, that's what he plays. That, you know, traditionally you would have I would have thought that's not gonna go over at a a typical swingers party. Uh we have proved otherwise because we've put him on stages at Secrets now, we've put him on stages at Naughty and New Orleans, and people go the fuck off when he starts uh dropping the dubstep stuff. So uh I think if as long as you time those sets right, I think they can hit and and hit in a big way. And and he's done it consistently now for us uh at event after event, and Naughty New Orleans was no exception. When he got up there and started throwing down, I mean people were so proud of him.
SPEAKER_01Like almost like I I think he's older than me, but I felt like a big sister, you know, like a like a proud mom, like or something. Like I was very I mean, like obviously I'm proud for you and some of that, like you got your EDM set in the main bar, which was I felt very similar to that, but like knowing that he wasn't even really supposed to be there and just kind of put him up there and it hit so well. I mean, not that I had any doubts, I didn't, um, but it it was just it was great. And it it we was it the same magic as the year before? No, but was it just as amazing in a different way?
SPEAKER_00Yes, yeah, no, that's what I would say. Yeah, it was I mean, that ballroom was for that two hours was pretty friggin' bananas. Uh, and the funny thing is it was supposed to end at four and it was still packed, and I just we just kept playing, and then eventually the lighting guy's like, hey man, I gotta start breaking down. Yeah, and I was like, All right, because Bob had told you you could go Yeah, I talked to Bob earlier and he's like, I'm like, what time do we gotta shut down? He's like, Oh, they don't start breaking down the ballroom till 9 a.m. You could go as late as you want, and I was like, Cool, man. And then the lighting guy's like, I gotta go to bed and I gotta start breaking down. And I was like, Oh shit, I didn't really think about him having to be there. And you know, he couldn't, I guess he could have just shut the lights off, but like that'd be weird, you know. So I was like, Can you give me to 4 30? He's like, Yeah, so we kept it going until about 4 30 in there.
SPEAKER_01So I went up probably like at 4 15. Uh, I just like at some point I was just done. I did, I was just like, peace out. Oh god. Literally, at one point I was eating cherry, gummy bears, and drinking a Dr. Pepper. Yeah, and somebody was like, Are you okay? And I was like, Yeah. And they're like, Are you really okay? I'm like, Yeah, I'm really, I was just I think it was like I was done, I was touched out, I was talked out, I was, you know, like we it had been a long fucking day. Yeah, so I went up probably like 15 minutes before you, and then you came up. And so, you know, we didn't go to bed till like 5 a.m.
SPEAKER_00probably 5 30 by the time like asleep.
SPEAKER_01And so we were supposed to check out originally um Sunday, and I we extended it to Monday, which we kind of knew going into it that I knew it was.
SPEAKER_00With having that closing set, we knew that it was gonna be awfully hard to get out of bed uh Sunday.
SPEAKER_01It's not gonna be safe for you to drive and get us out of there. It's kind of like a you know, quite the opposite goal to get us out of there. So we so you know, we're kind of pushing our time here, but just to kind of sum it up, we slept the majority of the day Sunday. So like three or so. I mean, we were we didn't sleep solid. We woke up and kind of and then Tara had wanted to go and get her kids some souvenirs and stuff like that. So we I was like, okay, I'm getting my ass up. So we we went and had like um some local food, which we love. The crab oil food. Yeah, it was very good, uh, suggested to us by Justin Time and his beautiful wife, they're local, so we got a local recommendation. And then we did a couple of we hit a couple of shops that we wanted to, and then we went to Cafe Dumont, walked around a little, came back, napped some more. Our goal was to pack, but we did not do that. So we got up Monday morning, packed, and got out of there. And it was actually very, very easy. We left like an hour before checkout because Tara's checkout was an hour before ours. Um, so we we left our hotel an hour early, and that was the sweet spot.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, I definitely uh arriving early, leaving late is definitely the way to do Naughty New Orleans uh if you can if your schedule allows it. Um that that would be my preference going forward, I think, is to lock that in. Um but yeah, had a great Naughty New Orleans. Um I feel like I don't know, I feel like every year we get more involved, and and I feel like we're involved in like bigger ways, you know what I mean?
SPEAKER_01Yeah, so we actually did less this year, uh, but we had a fucking blast. Um and we were talking to Mandy that it works with us, and she was like talking about how her and her husband had major FOMO. And I was, you know, we were I was like, you know, last year we did too much, and this year we just had fun. Do we do we work? Yes, but we had so much fun. And like our friends were like, y'all just seem like you're having a blast. And we genuinely were. We also had the month off before, so we were coming off of like a month break. We came off of like our burnout episode. Um, like, and I can remember about halfway through Naughty thinking, I don't want it to be over. Like, like Thursday night, you know, I was like, Oh, it's our tomorrow's already Friday. I don't that's what I want, you know. That's what this is supposed to be, but you know, and so I hope to kind of continue that moving forward. Uh it was this naughty was much needed, a breath of fresh air, genuinely enjoyed it. And like I'm we already booked for next year. Yeah, I already went ahead and and booked because they released it like the day like Sunday, I think it was or Monday. And it it sold out by April of last year. That was three hotels that sold out. So, like if you want to stay at that main hotel, highly recommend you go ahead and book it. Um, it just gets bigger and bigger every year, and we're gonna be there every year because it's it's that awesome.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, it really is the closest thing to like a national convention for the lifestyle. And I think so. For me and Lacey, you know, being part of the community, uh, being able to be there with people like Secrets and Bliss Cruz and Naughty and some of these other club owners and hotel takeover owners and NCSF and you know, everybody else. You know, even like wifey comes out, you know. So it's it is it almost, you know, it's a convention, but to us it almost feels like a family reunion. You know what I mean? Yeah. It really that's that's the kind of vibes it gives me. It's like a big family, lifestyle family reunion every year. Uh, so I'd highly recommend it. It's so unique, you know, the the day parties on Bourbon Street, every one of them is different, every one of them is hosted by different people, and then into the night parties, you know, the best playrooms, some of the best DJs come out. Um, it is a really unique experience. So if if it's put it on your lifestyle uh fucking list, and if you are so inclined to come next year, please uh book with us. You can go to swingersociety.net. The tickets are live and on sale now. They do have payment plans available, so you don't have to pay it all at once. And the payment plans are actually for the um the um convention tickets, and then you you don't have to pay the hotel until closer to the event, right? Uh so you definitely have time to kind of break that up because it you know it is a little more pricey than just the typical like club weekend, uh, but totally worth it. I think it's you know it's something I think every lifestyle person should experience one time. Uh so if if you want to book with us, uh we'd appreciate it. We will kind of help be your guides. We do Zoom calls ahead of time. We have, you know, we give out our schedule so you kind of have an idea. It kind of helps you, you know, that their schedule is a million different things. We kind of give you the things that we do, kind of highlight, you know, things like the beach party and and the in the you know, the the kind of the highlights of the week. We we kind of give you that private schedule so it gives you a little better idea. I know tarot is like, I'm I'm so thank god I'm here with you guys. I'd have no idea what to do. So um, so uh let us be your guides if you want to come. SwingerCy.net to get those tickets. Uh all right. That that sums up Naughty New Orleans. We're getting ready to go to HETO. Yeah. Like this week, at the end of this week.
SPEAKER_01Yes.
SPEAKER_00Uh, and then we're gonna get back from Hito, and then we go straight into Splash Eroticon.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, we're like 19 days away.
SPEAKER_00Uh so if you don't know what that is, it's basically, you know, Naughty is the biggest uh hotel takeover. Eroticon is up there, right? And it's uh Splash Atlanta is what it used to be called, and it was one of our favorite parties every single year. They've doubled down, well, actually, like tripled down on that. So they went from a 200-room hotel to like a 600-something room hotel. Uh, it's got an indoor atrium pool that I'm gonna be hosting the pool games for. I will be DJing. Uh, Justin Time's gonna be there. It's gonna be a lot of the same DJs you heard us talking about for Naughty in New Orleans. So it's kind of like getting the gang back together in Atlanta for something that's a little different, more pool-centric, but same kind of ideas, same kind of vibes. It's gonna be a good weekend. Yeah, um, I think they still do have rooms available.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, I think they do.
SPEAKER_00Uh so you can go to swingersociety.net and book if, and that's what the dates are August. Yeah, at the first weekend, I think August.
SPEAKER_01Second weekend. They also just released their day passes yesterday. So it's the 7th, 8th, and 9th of August in Atlanta. Yeah, I will also be there with Wifey.
SPEAKER_00And wifey's gonna be there.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, so I'll be in the wifey booth. So if you um want to come say hello, it's gonna be a good time. I'm not sure who all what all wifey stars will be there, but they usually bring out the big guns. So if you are a wifey fan and you wanted to um meet some of their stars, now this will be a great opportunity.
SPEAKER_00Yeah. Uh, so definitely come check out uh Splash Eroticon in Atlanta. Uh Swinnersight.net has tickets for that. Uh, and then it's into Secrets, and then it's into Electric Pleasures October.
SPEAKER_01I know I was literally just thinking last night because uh me and Daphne are matching for Splash again. That's like our thing now. Um, and I was like, the next event I have to buy for is Secrets, which is crazy. It seems like we were just at Secrets, like the whole summer is just flown by.
SPEAKER_00Right. So Secrets is in September. That event is sold out. You can get day passes, and then um we're doing a Halloween party in Chattanooga in October. This is what the weekend before Halloween, right?
SPEAKER_02Yeah.
SPEAKER_00Uh, and there are still some rooms for that, but it's filling very fast. So if you're looking for a Halloween party, uh, if you like EDM music, if you like festival vibes, but lifestyle friendly, uh, go check that out. You can find links to all of those parties and more. Swingersight.net, uh, and then Bliss Cruise HEDO, all that stuff's on there as well. Yeah.
SPEAKER_01Uh, you know, yeah, we actually just to tie this up, uh, since we just we literally just released HETO for 2027 like two days ago. So we're about to leave. Actually, when this podcast comes out, we will be on a plane? Getting, yeah, basically. Um, it's to be honest with you, it is it is the most relaxing trip that Dan and I get to take. We only take about 20 to 30 couples every year, so it's definitely a little bit smaller. And the whole resort is like maybe 250 or something. 250 room. So it's definitely a more chill, smaller event that we go to. Um, and so we really get to get to know people and chat and have a really good time. I highly recommend if you um if you want to go to go with a group, and we'd love to have you. So it this also sells out. It's been sold out for probably four or five months. So it's us and my frisky business. We do it with topless travel. So if that's something that you're interested in, you can go to swingershidey.net as well as all these other events that we just talked about. But now's the time to book it because it will it will sell out. It does it every year. We have multiple people on a waiting list. So if you would like to go, now's your time.
SPEAKER_00Now's your time. There's your last warning. Don't say we didn't tell you. Uh all right. Well, again, huge shout out to Naughty New Orleans, everybody that makes that party possible, everybody that came out and partied with us, uh, everybody that showed up for my sets and showed up to our parties.
