Tales After Dark is an immersive storytelling podcast where kink, comfort, regression, power dynamics, and emotional connection collide after midnight. Hosted by Pup Ashton, the show brings listeners into a world of ABDL, caregiving, pup play, Big Bro energy, obedience, training, vulnerability, and late-night fantasies through cinematic audio experiences, scripted stories, interviews, and original roleplay scenarios.
From slow-burn emotional storylines to intense Midnight Sessions episodes, Tales After Dark is built for listeners who crave stories that feel personal, intimate, and addictive. Whether you’re here for regression, Daddy dynamics, diapers, praise, punishment, cuddles, obedience training, heat cycles, puppy play, or simply the comfort of escaping into another world for an hour, there’s a place for you here.
The podcast features a growing cast of writers, voice actors, creators, and collaborators from across the community, helping bring every character and every scene to life. Recurring stories like “Back to Basics: The Regression of John,” “No Secrets Between Us,” “Adam’s Story: Embracing Innocence,” and “The Secret” have helped shape Tales After Dark into more than just a podcast, it’s become an ongoing universe listeners return to week after week.
Tales After Dark also includes special themed events and exclusive formats, including: • Midnight Sessions - immersive POV-style experiences designed to place YOU directly into the scene. • Midnight Confessions - creator interviews, listener stories, and candid conversations from within the community. • Theme Weeks & Double Feature Events- packed schedules featuring multiple story drops, double chapters, and fan-voted content.
Every episode is crafted with atmosphere in mind. Deep late-night energy, emotional storytelling, playful teasing, tension, softness, and unapologetic kink all blend together to create an experience that feels equal parts comforting and dangerous.
Beyond the stories, Tales After Dark has become a growing community space where listeners can celebrate themselves freely and without shame. The show embraces the many sides of kink and regression, from soft and nurturing moments to bratty chaos, strict handlers, alpha Big Bros, loyal pups, clingy littles, emotional vulnerability, and everything in between.
The podcast proudly collaborates with brands and creators across the ABDL and kink community, including sponsors like Totally Ozzy Tots, Land of Genie, and Rugrat Apparel, helping spotlight small businesses, artists, and creators that make the community thrive.
New episodes release every Monday and Friday, with additional bonus content, Midnight Sessions, interviews, and special events appearing throughout the month.
