We are very excited to announce that Wicked Grounds has launched a new podcast!

Every two weeks, we'll be recording in front of a live studio audience right here at Wicked Grounds, and posting the results for kinksters everywhere to download wherever you are!

Our first episode introduces the team -- co-hosts Mir from Wicked Grounds, Cyn from the SF Citadel, and Ishmael from Picklewater Industries, who serves as our co-host and producer. You'll learn about the nuances of animal play, how Mir became kinky, and how to strengthen kink community wherever you are! You can listen or download right here to hear the whole episode.

Interested in joining us for the next live recording? Join us at Wicked Grounds on Wednesday, August 30th for a discussion on negotiation and consent!
​
A special shout out to all our Patreon patrons who make projects like this possible. If you haven't checked out our Patreon, be sure to check out our advice column, essays and more!

​So, are you missing your friends who have gone to Burning Man? Perhaps others are up at the Eclipse? Well, we’re still here and we’re still queer! If you’re looking for things to do, we have a week full of things to do!
  • Saturday, August 19: Do you enjoy arts and crafts? I know, who doesn’t? Then you should come out to Crafty and Kinky, from 3-5pm.
  • Sunday, August 20: The monthly Human Animal Night will be happening from 7-9pm. This is a time for human animals and their handlers to come for some fun socializing and to romp around in a fun and safe environment.
  • Monday, August 21: New to the kink and BDSM community, and looking to meet others and learn more? Then the Foundations group may be perfect for you. They are a great resource, and give 101 classes. However, you need a sponsor for all Foundations group classes, which is why the Foundations Office Hours will be at Wicked Grounds from 5:30-6:30pm to talk with you, and give you a breakdown of everything they do. Are you Polyamorous? Curious about what it means to be poly? Maybe you’re just starting to explore the world of Poly and want to talk with others like yourself? The Poly Under 40 Coffeehouse Munch will be happening from 7-10pm. This isn’t a huge class, but more of a social group to just get together and meet with likeminded individuals.
  • Tuesday, August 22: The Bay Area Kinky Business Alliance & the Kinky Entrepreneur's Munch have come together to launch a weekly Kinky Entrepreneur’s Co-Working Session. Great for those who need some motivation, networking, or help with bouncing ideas back and forth. Are you a Rope Enthusiast? Planning on going to Bay Area Rope Club (BARC) Rope Night Stop by Wicked Grounds from 6-7pm for the Pre-meet Munch for some coffee and socializing before the event at Alchemy. Also, from 7:30-9:30pm is the Self-Suspenders Munch in the back of the cafe. This munch is intended for beginners and intermediates alike (and even those that are extremely advanced). No rope skills required - maybe we can teach you your first harness or single column tie!
  • Wednesday, August 23: This Wednesday is The San Francisco Littles Munch from 6-9pm, and is open to anyone who's into or curious about consensual age play between adults. Though between 6-7 is the SF Little’s Volunteer Meeting, for all interested in helping out the SF Little Scouts! So whether you identify as a big, a little, a switch, or if you're still exploring, or just looking to have fun, play, and meet like people, then this might be the munch for you! Remember to hold onto your receipt of $10 or more to get discount admission into Bondage-a-Go-Go.
  • Thursday, August 24: The monthly Shy: The Unsocial Social will be meeting from 7:30-9:30pm. This munch is a community and gathering for those with social anxiety or shyness to support one another. Especially those who identify as kinky and/or poly.
  • Friday, August 25: No munches today but we will be on the road at the SF Citadel for Smack It!
  • Saturday, August 26: Saturday we will have from 6-8pm the monthly Clean and Sober Munch for the Sober in Leather group.
  • Sunday, August 27: At the café if you’re interested in spirituality, and possibly how that ties into your kink, or lifestyle, or are curious in how it could, then the Kinky Spirituality Munch is a perfect fit. The munch will be from 7-9pm. We will also be closing an hour early at 9pm today.
All events are open to any Wicked Grounds customer, at any level of kink/ BDSM experience. We hope you'll come out and learn more about the extremely diverse SF kink community, right here at Wicked Grounds!

For only $5 you can come shop, and have a look at one of SF’s very own dungeons! Then stick around for 
Whip it!, the play party all about whips and floggers!
​

Wondering what else Wicked Grounds is doing this week?
