Queer Community, Dark Rooms, And Sexual Wellness (With HOWL's Samuel Douek)

Happy Pride month! In case it wasn't clear already, we're huge fans of the LGBTQ+ community here at Sextras, so we'll be publishing an episode a week for the rest of the month.

This week, Honey talks to Samuel Douek, founder of HOWL, a sexual wellness brand and queer, sex-positive rave. Samuel tells us all about his journey into starting the brand, including why he was drawn to running queer nightlife.

We talk about the challenges of running a dark room and marketing a queer-friendly CBD lube in a world where sexual wellness is increasingly censored. Samuel even shares some upcoming launches and changes to HOWL raves to look out for.

You can find Honey's favourite lube here, info about upcoming parties here, and follow Samuel and HOWL on Instagram to keep up with what they have coming up.

As always, you can find Sextras on Substack, Instagram, TikTok, and our website. We want to hear your queer sex and dating stories, dilemmas, and questions. Email us at sextraspodcast@gmail.com, leave us an anonymous message on our website, or DM us on Instagram to get in touch.

Don't forget to leave a review wherever you're listening to support us! It's Pride month, don't let us down (or else...).
