Varying Degrees is a UK based 18+ Podcast discussing the BDSM lifestyle, community, and aspects relating to relationships, play and social events. We have a casual, lighthearted and informal approach but don't shy away from more serious topics.
Varying Degrees started mid 2019 and is a fledgling podcast still finding it's format and following. We would like to invite you to join us on a journey of discovery and occasional hilarity
On this episode we dive in to the topic of sadism with special guest Will Hunt; Will has been part of the UK kink scene for almost two decades; running events, teaching workshops and performing at various clubs and it was great to sit with him and gain his perspective and listen to his experiences. We then return to our staple section of the 'encyclopedia of unusual sexual practices', which as ever is an odd mix of informative, entertaining and darn right confusing. Before bringing you a new section where Hands reads from a book documenting the exploits of a London based top. Is it fact, is it fiction, one thing we do know is that it's a little 'out there' but we hope you enjoy it.
If you would like to know more about Will he is currently working on his first book about D/s dynamics and has a number of upcoming workshops. You can learn more about him, keep tabs on his book release and his upcoming workshops at: https://fetlife.com/users/2976273 (https://fetlife.com/users/2976273)and follow him on https://www.instagram.com/williambenhunter/ (https://www.instagram.com/williambenhunter/)
