(aka The Kinky Day Show, The Kinky Morning Show)

“The conversations are happening, whether you’re tuning in or not.” – Mr. Cunning Linguist

The Kinky { } Show is a bold and deliciously irreverent series born inside Snap Crackle Pop-Up Kink, one of the founding houses of the Black Kink Network, and it has quickly become a cultural pulse point for our community. Hosted by glaze, Mr. CunningLinguist, and Switchress Shay Au Lait, the show blends kinky news, Fetlife deep-dives, event spotlights, scene craft, media analysis, and the kind of nuanced, necessary discourse rarely found in mainstream spaces.

Its tone is smart, satirical, soulful, and unabashedly kinky – rooted in education, pleasure activism, and the liberation of Black and marginalized kinksters. At a time when community care, informed consent, erotic intelligence, and alternative frameworks for power are urgently needed, The Kinky { } Show offers a dynamic space where knowledge meets play, humor meets rigor, and our kinky culture gets the spotlight it deserves.

Each episode is structured around key segments that keep the show lively, provocative, and deeply relevant. Kinky News & Hot Topics sets the pace with fast-moving conversations on consent debates, dom/sub lifestyle discussions, kink trends, and community issues – where education meets commentary and nothing is off-limits. The Fetlife Feed Deep Dives bring a sharp, playful lens to trending posts and essays on the platform, including thought-provoking pieces from co-host Mr. CunningLinguist himself. With on-air reactions, spicy discourse, and cultural analysis, these moments spark conversations our community needs.

A BKN favorite, the Kink of the Day segment spotlights specific kinks, dynamics, and play styles – unpacking techniques, risks, desires, and the cultural context of each topic. It’s part learning lab, part playground for beginners, veterans, and the curiously chaotic. Meanwhile, BDSM in Media offers a riff-filled look at erotic films, series, and music videos, breaking down what mainstream and alternative portrayals get right, wrong, and deliciously unhinged.

Rooted in community, the Events & Culture segment showcases conferences, pop-up kink weekends, Siren Pack productions, BKN network happenings, and other gatherings across the BKN universe. This is where the network’s living, breathing ecosystem shines – highlighting afterparties, workshops, meetups, and the connective tissue of kink-centered social life.

Throughout the show, Skills, Scenes & Negotiation serve as an essential thread. From crafting scenes to managing topping-from-the-bottom mishaps, from informed versus coerced consent to pickup-play negotiations, these discussions offer grounded, responsible insight from seasoned practitioners. And when it’s time to drift into experimentation, the Future Room Titles & Chaos Theory segment lets the co-hosts ideate in real time—exploring role-play structures, binary-defying dynamics, taboo hypotheticals, and upcoming topics sparked by community curiosity.

Together, these segments create a show that is educational without being elitist, entertaining without being flippant, and culturally necessary at a time when BDSM conversations are often sanitized or removed from Black and marginalized perspectives. The Kinky { } Show holds space for nuance, humor, liberation, and culturally specific truth-telling – anchoring itself as a flagship podcast within the Black Kink Network’s growing media universe.
