“Power exchange is how I express my love for people.”

Briska is a legendary New Jersey rope educator and performer in the BDSM scene. She founded The Moth House, a small leather house dedicated to queer joy, community, and education. In this discussion, we explore her past experience modeling for major kink sites, including Hard Tied, Infernal Restraints, and Kink.com. She retired from modeling around 2010 to focus on tying others, creating dynamic scenes, teaching, and deepening her own rope and power exchange practices.

“Rope is an extension of myself.”

YKF GROWL: BDSM Safety 101 w/ The Lady Lioness & Nicholas Tanek

The Lady Lioness & Nicholas Tanek strip BDSM safety down to its bones — and rebuild it with consent, negotiation, risk awareness, and intentional power exchange at the core. We talk SSC, RACK, negotiation frameworks, scene safety, aftercare basics, and why cutting corners isn’t edgy — it’s sloppy.

Seasoned kinksters and curious newcomers ask questions, share insights, and deepen the conversation — because community education is part of the scene.

Whether you’re new to kink, kink-curious, or a seasoned player who knows safety is a skill you practice — not a badge you earn, this episode reinforces why discipline, communication, and awareness are the real marks of dominance and submission alike.

Justin Sayne (Fetish Mafia), The Lady Lioness, Anna Valentina, Mistress Sophie, & Nicholas Tanek join YKF Weekends for an episode on PRIMAL PLAY. We smash myths! Justin Sane detailed his quick-release asphyxiation collar for safe, mind-blowing restriction-plus-stimulation rushes, plus crew fantasies like Anna Valentina’s midnight forest hunts and alpha-sub claw sessions. Scent obsession, violet wands, knives, pack bonding, and themed aftercare kept it guttural and real—consensual, raw, community-driven. Producer’s note: We witness the birth of The Growl.

YKF Growl: BDSM BURNOUT (w/ The Lady Lioness & Nicholas Tanek)

The Lady Lioness & Nicholas Tanek discuss BDSM BURNOUT. Kink burnout is that quiet (or crushing) feeling when the hunger fades, scenes feel like chores, time-wasters & catfish drain you dry, and even your favorite fetish starts tasting like obligation.

Important takeaways: You are not broken. Pausing isn’t failure. The community has space for rest (podcasts, online classes, vanilla hangouts with kinky friends).  Play Recovery Roulette!

Ultimate message: Change is constant. The kink ocean is vast. Someone (or something) can reignite your flame when you least expect it.
