The Ropecast

Mistress Ardenne, of Rapture NYC, talks rope, dominance, and dommelets over breakfast with Graydancer.

Just a couple of additions/corrections to the most recent podcast.

Gray heeds a listener's call to return to his roots in rope, with a primer on the basics of working rope into your kink. Updates on the ART of Rita, Graydancer's upcoming travel, plus a guest skit by the Garageband Nawashi Singers.

There are also a few spots left on Rita for your sponsorship of the ART of Rita. The ART itself will take place on July 10th, but her available limbs, etc. are going fast. To be a part of it, visit graydancer.com!

First, Uli from Germany shares with us a gallery of Araki's work.

Next, lots of concerned feedback about the recent Electroporn podcast which reviewed eXtreme Restraints suspension frame and Deluxe Digital Power Box. Graydancer addresses the safety issues and reminds you of the special offer from eXtreme Restraints to the podcast listeners.

Finally, Graydancer announces the beginning of his Eastern Junket in July and offers you the opportunity to sponsor the Art of Rita, with prizes and premiums from Twisted Monk and more...


Special thanks to Jordan, Faviola, and Matt for helping get Master K's interview transcribed for the website!

Graydancer talks a bit about shibaricon, reviews Extreme Restraints' Sex Swing Stand, and then guest Arielle gives a live, very sexy review of the Power Box. This one is basically porn, folks...but listen for a special discount from Extreme Restraints.

Also, the Full Interview with Master K is now available for download. Apologies for the disparate audio levels; I worked on it as much as I could, but dammit, Jim, I'm a rigger, not a sound engineer.

ADDENDUM: Several people have expressed concern that I placed electrodes on Arielle's breasts in the podcast, when the general guideline is no e-stim above the waist. I have addressed these concerns in my other blog. Please read there before you email me with comments. Thank you!

ADDENDUM 2: Special thanks to Evan the KinkyCrafter for fixing many of the sound levels on the Master K interview. Interestingly, he did the same thing I did (ran it through the levelator) but it worked much better for him. Thanks also to Chaos for offering to help.

Join the Post-GRUE pancake breakfast in Minneapolis as we discuss scene etiquette and new kinky games. Graydancer recommends a new podcast, and then it's a feature interview with the great rope switch Vincenza.

Be sure to listen for a special deal from Extreme Restraints!

Graydancer makes good on a promised 50 spankings for his sponsors of the Vegas-L.A.-Vegas trip earlier this year.

Graydancer challenges the other ropetops to come up a more surreal rope scene than the one pictured here. Got one you think qualifies? Why not bring it to the St. Louis GRUE at the end of March?

In today's ropecast, listener mail is answered, with recommendations for gay male bondage at MenInRope.com and via Van Darkholme's Male Bondage book. Some embarrassingly complimentary email is also acknowledged, with Rita Seagrave's beauty described in historic terms.

Then it's on to interviews with Lochai and Lee Harrington, with special attention paid to the upcoming Beyond Leather event in April.
