Norm has an incredible story and is a fantastic storyteller... And he has some stories! He and his wife of 30 years started exploring polyamory a few years ago and have learned a lot along the way. So much so that they have created multiple discussion groups in the greater Washington DC area. He is a wealth of knowledge without being judgmental.

Michelle and Orlando join us for one of the best conversations we've had for anyone who is looking to get into swinging. They've been tinkering with the idea for years but went for it all out last fall by booking a trip to Desire with a group takeover. They talk through what it's like to explore a lifestyle resort as a relatively new couple plus we have one of the best STI conversations we have ever had on the show with a couple who got some less than ideal news a few days before their flight left for the trip!   Show Notes   Join Our Patreon Community!   $10 Off - Online STI Testing   10% discount at myonecondoms.com with offer code "Emma"   https://www.normalizingnonmonogamy.com/
