Enemies2Lovers: Polyamory Podcast
Two queer immigrants discuss ethical non-monogamy, queerness, immigrant child guilt, sex, and life in general.
Originally college roommates that hated each others guts, cohosts Aleks Midnight + Shay Luna transitioned from enemies to lovers 10 years later - after realizing they had both stumbled into the worlds of polyamory, kink, and queer identity.
This podcast delves into personal experiences of a range of guests of different races, sexualities, genders, relationship styles, abilities, and perspectives. From child-free millennial teenagers to married couples with kids and multiple romantic partners, you will hear it all here.
