Wanderlust Swingers – A Swinger Podcast & Lifestyle Stories EP224 – STI Testing for Swingers: What “Recently Tested” Really Means What does “recently tested” actually mean when you’re a swinger, hotwife, single dater or practicing ethical non-monogamy? And does a negative STI test really tell you everything you think it does? For Sexual Health Awareness Month, Cate is joined by Alan and Angela, founders of STD Hero, for a conversation about STI testing for swingers, MGen, oral gonorrhea, testing windows, site specific testing and the sexual health conversations we probably need to be having more often. Did you know September is Sexual Health Awareness Month?! Alan and Angela also share what they’re seeing through STD Hero’s own testing data, why they decided to include MGen in every STI panel, and why their positivity data has raised some interesting questions about infections such as oral gonorrhea. And because sexual health is about far more than avoiding an infection, we get into communication, confidence, sexual wellness, talking openly about fantasies and desires, and why better sexual-health conversations can actually enable people to have more informed and pleasurable adventures.   Learn More About STI Testing for Swingers The Ultimate Guide to STI Testing for Swingershttps://wanderlustswingers.com/swinger-education/swingers-sti-testing/   MGen: The STI Swingers Should Watch Out Forhttps://wanderlustswingers.com/swinger-education/m-genitalium-the-emerging-sti-for-swingers-to-watch/   STD Hero STI Statisticshttps://mybls.com/pages/std-statistics   Useful Links Join us at a Swingers Event OR Hotel Takeoverhttps://wanderlustswingers.com/swingers-events/ Find swingers, clubs and events with SDChttps://www.sdc.com/?ref=32122   Support Our Sponsor Comprehensive STI Testing (USA Only) – STD Hero Use code LIBERTINE for 10% off https://mybls.com/Libertine     STI testing for swingers, swingers STI testing, swinger sexual health, swingers sexual health, MGen, Mycoplasma genitalium, MGen STI, oral gonorrhea, oral STI testing, rectal STI testing, site specific STI testing, STI testing window, STI testing window period, recently tested, STD Hero, STI statistics, at home STI testing, PASS certified STI testing, STI results, swingers podcast, swingers lifestyle, ethical non monogamy, ENM podcast, non monogamy sexual health, safer sex swingers, sexual health podcast, Sexual Health Awareness Month, open relationship podcast, hotwife podcast, Wanderlust Swingers podcast

Cate and Darrell are an Australian couple who’ve built a life around open, honest conversations about non-monogamy. Their show, Wanderlust Swingers-A Swinger Podcast & Hotwife Lifestyle Stories, is a direct line into the realities of the swinging and hotwife lifestyles, far removed from sensationalism or fantasy. Each episode feels like pulling up a chair with two experienced, grounded friends who aren’t afraid to share their own missteps, joys, and ongoing evolution within this community. You’ll hear them recount their personal adventures, from navigating local events to reviewing venues and experiences with a sex-positive lens, always focusing on communication, trust, and practical realities. The heart of this podcast, however, often lies in the global stories they gather. Cate and Darrell regularly interview other swingers from around the world, creating a rich tapestry of perspectives that highlights both the universal challenges and the beautifully diverse ways people structure their relationships and explore their sexuality. It’s a space that normalizes these discussions within broader contexts of health, culture, and society. For anyone curious, new, or deeply embedded in this world, this podcast offers a blend of personal narrative and community voice, all delivered with a distinctly Aussie warmth and straightforward charm. It’s real talk about connection, boundaries, and the pursuit of pleasure, one candid story at a time.
