In this episode of Sex, Drugs, and Soul, Dennis Hull returns for an unfiltered conversation on conscious masculinity, emotional availability, and the power of slowing down. Together, we explore what it means to hold space without fixing, to rest as an act of rebellion, and to trust the sacred rhythm between doing and being. We talk about... - The emotional toll of hyper-independence - The shadow side of polarity & performance - Rest as an act of rebellion in hustle culture - Holding space without trying to fix or rescue - Honor discomfort as a path to deeper pleasure - Why unavailable men feel so addictive - Control, surrender, and how to know when to let go Dennis opens up about his transition into stewarding the Naked Soul Society, how he navigates leadership, and what it means to offer presence as a form of protection. We also explore hyper-independence, the wounds that make us magnetic, and how healing is often about learning to sit with what is without over-controlling the situation. This episode is a permission slip to take your hands off the wheel, honor your emotions, and trust your own inner timing. It's also an honest glimpse into the kind of masculinity that doesn’t dominate but protects, witnesses, and honors.

Send us a text What if chaos isn’t something we have to escape, but something we can create from? I sat down with Pia Leichter, an artist and embodiment guide, to explore how creativity, play, and ritual have helped both of us move through life’s biggest transitions. We talked about the beauty of death ceremonies, the power of stillness, and how tuning into our bodies can guide us through grief, joy, and everything in between. This conversation was a soft, powerful reminder that letting go doesn’t mean losing yourself, it can actually be the way back home. Some of what we explored ✦ How creativity opens up when we stop trying to control everything ✦ Why pleasure can be a guide, not just a goal ✦ What death rituals can teach us about living more fully ✦ The importance of play and joy in healing If you’re navigating change or craving a deeper connection with yourself, I hope this episode gives you space to breathe, feel, and imagine a new way forward.

Send us a text In this episode of Sex, Drugs, and Soul, I talk with stand-up comedian Tony Casillas about the courage it takes to be funny when the truth isn't always comfortable. We unpack how personal experiences, from strict religious upbringings to flawed sex education, inform the jokes comedians tell and the deeper truths behind them. From bombing on stage to navigating audience dynamics, this is a conversation about vulnerability, resilience, and using humor to cope with the chaos of being human. Topics we explore include: ✦ How comedians use personal stories as social commentary ✦ Why religion, politics, and parenting are comedy gold…and landmines ✦ The role of selfishness and responsibility in today's society ✦ Why we need more nuance (and more laughs) in political discourse Whether you’re a comedy nerd or someone trying to understand or survive the world through laughter, there’s something here for you.

Send us a text So many of us are craving deeper intimacy—but no one ever taught us how to actually talk about sex, desire, or what turns us on.  In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Diane Mueller for a conversation about what it really takes to keep passion alive in long-term relationships. We get into the truth about libido (hint: it’s not just hormones), the impact of the nervous system on arousal, and how communication can completely shift the way we connect with our partners. We also talk about hot monogamy, self-pleasure as a tool for empowerment, and the kind of emotional safety that makes real pleasure possible. If you’ve ever felt like your sex drive disappeared, or you're craving more depth, connection, or fire in your relationship—this one’s for you.

Send us a text This episode is dedicated to Larro! Love you, brother. Let's roll... *** In this tender and truth-soaked episode, I open up about my journey with grief after losing a dear friend who left this world far too soon. It’s raw. It’s real. Emotional AF...and wrapped in love. I talk about the gut-punch of loss, the wild ride of emotions that followed, and the unexpected signs he sent me from the other side. Because love doesn’t just disappear, it shape-shifts. I also share a near-death experience that cracked me open in a way I didn’t see coming, and a powerful, symbolic body-painting session that felt like a creative rebirth. It was like my way of honoring both him, the parts of myself that grief awakened, and the new version of myself. (Rising phoenix, vibes!) This episode is a mix of courage, creativity, connection, and the kind of healing that only grief can bring. It ends with a tribute poem I wrote for him to honor his spirit and the bond we shared... I'm still unpacking some of the soul lessons... yet, if you’ve ever lost someone you love, or are navigating the messy beauty of grief, this one’s for you. If you want to explore courage while connecting with fellow creatives, join me on NABA this Wednesday, May 14th, at noon CST for a virtual, open-mic writing workshop/playshop.
