After a string of disappointing events, Jesse and Jodi were ready to walk away from the lifestyle for good. But instead of quitting, they redefined what connection and play meant for them — and built a new community on their own terms.

In this episode of Real Couples Next Door, they sit down with The Professor and Mrs. Doll to talk about swinger burnout, shifting play styles, and what it takes to run inclusive, drama-free events in the Midwest. It’s raw, honest, and filled with the kind of insights only longtime couples can offer.

• Why they almost left the lifestyle behind
• Switching from same-room to separate-room play
• Building a community instead of chasing parties
• Cultural differences in Wisconsin vs. Minnesota swinger scenes
• How race and identity show up in attraction and access

🎧 TEASER: When Regular Friends Meet Lifestyle Friends

In this clip from the next episode of Real Couples Next Door, Jesse & Jodi share how their two worlds — lifestyle and vanilla — have naturally merged over the years. From bar nights to backyard cookouts, they talk about what it’s like when “everyone just knows” and no one cares.

This light, real moment shows how far we’ve come in normalizing non-monogamy — and what authentic connection can look like when you stop compartmentalizing your life.
